The abstract discusses the relationship between upstream ozone dose and reverse osmosis (RO) permeate total organic carbon (TOC) concentration at the Pure Water Monterey Advanced Water Purification Demonstration Facility. Ozone is one technology available to reduce lowpressure membrane filtration (MF) fouling; however, it also increases RO permeate...

This paper will focus on brining an important issue of oxidative damage of RO membranes by the often overlooked bromamines residual that can form in waters containing high levels of bromide, such as municipal wastewater. The key issue for RO system operators and managers is understanding how the potential for the formation bromamines residual depen...
