Kinetic and mechanistic analysis of membrane fouling in seawater reverse osmosis: Impact of selective organic foulant retention by membrane-based pretreatments

This study provides a kinetic and mechanistic analysis of how membrane-based pretreatment pore size impacts biofouling in seawater reverse osmosis (SWRO). Untreated raw seawater exhibited a rapid flux decline best described by a cake filtration mechanism (R2=0.9094, RMSE=0.0539) due to the co-deposi...
