Effects of Dissolved CO2 on Organic and Inorganic Fouling and Cleaning of RO Membranes

Reverse osmosis (RO) is a membrane treatment process used to separate dissolved solutes from water. This technique has become increasingly popular due to the variety of objectives it may accomplish, including desalination of seawater or brackish water, advanced treatment for water reuse, softening, natural organic matter removal to minimize disinfection by-products (DBP) formation, and specific contaminants removal (Crittenden et al., 2012).
