The effects of feed water de-gassing on the permeate flux of a small scale SWRO pilot plant

The effects of pressure release on feed water cavitation have been studied using a small pilot scale SWRO system. The presence of dissolved atmospheric gases in sea water leads to a potential for cavitation within the porous membranes used in high pressure processes. The rapid application and relea...
