Application of MFI-UF on an ultrapure water production system to monitor the stable performance of RO process

Despite significant advances in reverse osmosis (RO) applications, membrane fouling is an inevitable problem that reduces the quantity and quality of produced water and is associated with reducing the energy efficiency of the entire system. The aim of this study was to expand our understanding of the modified fouling index (MFI), which is a reliable tool used to provide insight into the fouling characteristics of the RO process in advance. The...
