This paper discusses a AwwaRF-funded research project to summarize the
issues associated with application of membranes and the effectiveness of integrating
membranes with other processes and to develop a computer model to assist utilities in
determining the applicability of membranes in addressing various water quality issues. a diverse cross section of membrane plants currently in
operation has been closely studied. In essence, the plants varied in several aspects such
as capacity, types of pretreatment, types of membranes (for example, submerged and
encased), membrane chemistry, decision drivers, and geographical location. This paper
presents results of more than ten in-depth case studies conducted as part of the research
effort. The focus is on process selection decisions and design
considerations including necessary pretreatment, hydraulics and control logic,
commissioning and waste disposal options.
