Design of membrane systems requires consideration of both water quality and
productivity goals. Though water quality capabilities of various membrane
processes can be readily defined, operational performance can be highly variable
and is source water specific. Surface waters generally have a higher fouling
potential than groundwater and seawater and are especially difficult to predict.
This paper presents results from a 15 month pilot-scale evaluation of Integrated
Membrane Systems (IMS) for treatment of the Hillsborough River in Tampa, Florida.
Water quality and operational results are reviewed. In addition, fouling
mechanisms, critical design criteria, and costs are presented. Includes 2 references, tables, figures.
