The presenations will provide a background on membrane processes for water treatment including RO, NF, MF and UF along with basic terminology and key points....

The presentation will cover online and offline Maintenance programs for the Pall Membrane Filtration System. It will also cover troubleshooting moisture in the air operated valves. It will briefly cover the research and potential fixes for the short run times on the Membranes due to fouling in the summer of 2017....

This topic will specifically focus on the needs of the audience and answer questions about operational issues as it relates to the Membrane Filtration System at their respective plant. The breadth of expertise of the presenter will allow a wide range of questions to be asked. The focus will be around providing a starting point for operators to so...

Presentation will show how maintenance procedures developed by Olathe staff to identify fiber breaks, pinning procedures and pin tracking methods were used to track the condition of aged membrane modules. This information was used as the determining factor to initiate a capital improvement project. The presentation will cover the project where th...

This presentation will give a brief overview of RO technology and its application in midwest region with examples. The first example is Fargo membrane plant that has been recently constructed. It is the largest and first surface water membrane plant that uses UF and RO. The plant is designed to remove sulfate to meet treated water quality goals. Th...

WaterOne has been using membrane filtration at its Wolcott Treatment Facility for almost 10 years. The membranes are still performing well with few problems. One reason for this is attention to daily performance and good records. This information is used to adjust cleaning routines and anticipate maintenance issues. With proper attention membran...

Overview of and introduction to membrane plant design considerations for both microfiltration and ultrafiltration (MF/UF), i.e., low pressure filtration membranes, as well as for reverse osmosis and nanofiltration (RO/NF) membranes. The presentation will focus on drinking water treatment applications, but will also be relevant for water reclamation...

This presentation will provide data specific to the mid-west on water treatment considerations and benefits when evaluationg reverse osmosis or membrane softening. Water supply, pilot study, pretreatment, process design, operation and maintenance and data collection will be addressed....

This presentation will focus on the use of high rate lime softening process followed by UF membrane filtration. Two plants use surface water, while a thrid uses a groundwater source. The presentation will provide information on why this treatment process was chosen, design considerations, contruction and start up, and operational information....

The use of membrane water treatment technology in the midwest is gathering momentum. There are significant reasons for this: changing water quality, the need for more robust water treatment, and emerging contaminants of concern. This presentation will summarize recent activity in both the municipal and industrial sectors, identify target contamina...
