PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

CM NF90-2514 nanofiltration membrane (NF) elements offer high quality water for small commercial systems purifying less than one gallon per minute (0.2 m3/d) of RO water. In addition to high quality water and low energy costs, CM membranes also deliver savings by providing long lasting and reliable performance.

Advantages

  • High flux results in high yields; 
  • High rejection provides good water quality;

Important Information

Proper start-up of reverse osmosis water treatment systems is essential to prepare the membranes for operating service and to prevent membrane damage due to overfeeding or hydraulic shock. Following the proper start-up sequence also helps ensure that system operating parameters conform to design specifications so that system water quality and productivity goals can be achieved.Before initiating system start-up procedures, membrane pretreatment, loading of the membrane elements, instrument calibration and other system checks should be completed.

Operation Guidelines

Avoid any abrupt pressure or cross-flow variations on the spiral elements during start-up, shutdown, cleaning or other sequences to prevent possible membrane damage. During start-up, a gradual change from a standstill to operating state is recommended as follows:

  • Feed pressure should be increased gradually over a 30-60 second time frame.
  • Cross-flow velocity at set operating point should be achieved gradually over 15-20 seconds.
  • Permeate obtained from first hour of operation should be discarded.

General Information

  • Keep elements moist at all times after initial wetting.
  • If operating limits and guidelines given in this bulletin are not strictly followed, the limited warranty will be null and void.
  • To prevent biological growth during prolonged system shutdowns, it is recommended that membrane elements be immersed in a preservative solution.
  • The customer is fully responsible for the effects of incompatible chemicals and lubricants on elements.
  • Maximum pressure drop across an entire pressure vessel (housing) is 30 psi (2.1 bar).
  • Avoid static permeate-side backpressure at all times.

In normal operation, the membrane surface in RO elements can become fouled by mineral scale, biological matter, colloidal particles and insoluble organic constituents. Deposits build up on the membrane surfaces during operation until they cause loss in normalized permeate flow and/or loss of normalized salt rejection.
Elements should be cleaned whenever any of the following conditions occur:

· the normalized permeate flow drops by >=10%
· the normalized salt passage increases by >=10%
· the normalized differential pressure (feed pressure minus concentrate pressure) increases by >= 15% from the reference condition established during the first 48 h of operation.

If cleaning is delayed, system performance recovery may be less effective.  

To improve the efficiency of reverse osmosis systems, methods such as optimizing pre-treatment processes to reduce suspended matter and particle content in the source water and minimize membrane fouling; adjusting operational parameters like pressure, flow rate, and temperature to achieve optimal filtration results; regularly cleaning and replacing filters and membrane elements to keep the equipment in good condition; and selecting high-performance reverse osmosis membrane materials to enhance membrane permeability and anti-fouling capabilities can be adopted.

The service life of a reverse osmosis membrane depends on several factors, including water quality, pressure, temperature, and usage frequency. Generally speaking, the lifespan of residential reverse osmosis membranes is about 3-5 years, while industrial membranes may require more frequent replacement and maintenance.

Reverse osmosis systems need regular filter replacement and membrane element cleaning to maintain their good filtration performance. Additionally, it is important to ensure that the system’s pressure and flow are within the design requirements to avoid damage due to improper operation.
