PROJECT DESCRIPTION
There has been a dramatic increase in the number of reverse osmosis and nano-filtration plant over the past ten years. There has also been a proliferation in the variety of feed sources used, including seawater, surface waters and, increasingly, effluents of varying qualities. Not surprisingly, therefore, is the parallel increase in the degree of scaling and fouling, resulting in the need for not only novel preventative antiscalant products in the field, but also new and improved cleaners where deposition has occurred. An essential part of the ability to correctly select and apply the most appropriate products lies in the development of laboratory analysis and predictive tools.
Fouling potential is an inherent characteristic of membrane module design. The high membrane packing density required for good production rates results in low voidage for feed water flow. However, this need not result in detrimental performance. Fouling has been widely documented and researched since the first commercial use of membrane separations. It is important that this subject is addressed because membrane replacement is a considerable expense in the operation of an RO plant. In the case of large municipal and industrial systems, this cost can be prohibitive.
Pre-treatment systems for RO plants are designed to produce a feedwater with a reduced fouling potential by removing potential fouling species prior to membrane treatment. Common foulants include: Calcium carbonate and calcium sulphate scales, Organic matter, Iron, Colloidal material, Bio-film and microorganisms, Silica, Natural humic and fulvic acids.
Fumaric Acid Polymers are used as Antiscalants. The synthesis of the fumaric acid polymers follows a novel process that avoids the insolubility and low reactivity of fumaric acid in free radical reactions and that produces the polymer in high yield.
