Advanced Treatment of Drinking Water by Ultrafiltration Membrane

Article Preview

Abstract:

Advanced treatment of drinking water was performed by ultrafiltration process (UF) in this study. Experimental results showed that UF is a perfect physical sieving barrier to remove turbidity, algae and bacteria from water, which is far superior to conventional water treatment processes. But the ultrafiltration membrane is not very effective for the removal of dissolved organic matter because of the large molecular weight cut-off. And the backwashing per 30min can totally renew the ultrafiltration membrane.
