Fouling of Reverse Osmosis and Ultrafiltration Membranes: A Critical Review

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors reviewed the literature on the fouling phenomena in reverse osmosis (RO) membrane systems, the analytical techniques used to quantify fouling, preventive methods, and membrane cleaning strategies and made specific recommendations on how scientists, engineers, and technical staff can assist in improving the performance of these systems through fundamental and applied research.
