Detailed organic characterization of process water to evaluate reverse osmosis membrane fouling in industrial wastewater treatment by Minier-Matar, Joel

“…Moreover, LC-OCD analysis showed that the ACF inlet has a TOC concentration of approximately 3.06 mg/L; of those 1.29 mg/L (42 %) are hydrophobic, and 1.77 mg/L (58 %) are hydrophilic. After ACF treatment, the hydrophobic organics decreased to 0.65 mg/L, revealing that the ACF is removing >50 % of hydrophobic organics which are likely responsible for membrane fouling. …”
