Abstract
Nanofiltration guarantees high water recovery and low energy consumption in removing micropollutants (MPs). In this study, we derive a concise model to describe MP removal with nanofiltration membranes. We compare the results from the model with experimental data for the removal of 7 MPs with 5 salt concentrations using the NF270 membrane. Our findings indicate that the model accurately describes MP transport through nanofiltration membranes. Furthermore, we evaluate the effect of salt concentration on MP rejection. The results show that salt concentration impacts MP rejection differently based on MP charge and size. Increasing salt concentration decreases the rejection of counter-charged MPs that are small and increases the rejection of counter-charged MP that are large.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Membrane Science is a publication that focuses on membrane systems and is aimed at academic and industrial chemists, chemical engineers, materials scientists, and membranologists. It publishes original research and reviews on various aspects of membrane transport, membrane formation/structure, fouling, module/process design, and processes/applications. The journal primarily focuses on the structure, function, and performance of non-biological membranes but also includes papers that relate to biological membranes. The Journal of Membrane Science publishes Full Text Papers, State-of-the-Art Reviews, Letters to the Editor, and Perspectives.
