This study aimed to calibrate and validate the MFI-UF method in order to ensure the accuracy of particulate fouling measurements in RO. Firstly, the MFI-UF calibration was examined using two solutions of standard particles (dextran and polystyrene). Two main criteria were investigated: (i) MFI-UF linearity with particle concentrations at both low a...
Water scarcity is a serious issue on many smaller islands, with population growth and the predicted impacts of climate change as driving factors. Bonaire is a small island located in the Caribbean Sea that has rural areas without grid connections to electricity and water. Agriculture, both livestock and hobby crop farming, in the Punta Blanku regio...
V diplomskem delu obravnavamo razsoljevanje vode s postopkom reverzne osmoze. Spoznali smo membranske tehnologije in tlačno gnane membranske procese. Proučili smo postopek reverzne osmoze in njene teoretične osnove. Na laboratorijskem pilotnem merilnem sistemu smo izvajali meritve razsoljevanja vodnih raztopin NaCl in KNO3 pod različnimi obratovaln...

Membrane filtration processes have been used to treat landfill leachate. On the other hand, closing the leachate treatment loop and finding a final destination for landfill leachate membrane concentrate (LLMC) - residual stream of membrane systems - is challenging for landfill operators. The re-introduction of LLMC into the landfill is typical; how...
Detta arbete utreder möjligheten att säkra vattentillgången i Mönsterås kommun med hjälp av en avsaltningsanläggning för bräckvatten från östersjön. Det är högst troligt ett sådant vattenverk skulle kunna uppföras i kommunen och dessutom ge ett vatten med lägre halter av oönskade ämnen än vatten renat med konventionella metoder från yt- och grundva...
This study investigates the pilot-scale ozone treatment of reverse osmosis concentrate (ROC), originating from variable tank truck cleaning wastewater. The influence of ozonation on short- and long-term biodegradation potential was examined through respirometry and Zahn-Wellens, respectively. Ecotoxicity was also examined for several concentrate ba...
Transition metal dichalcogenide (TMDC) nanomaterials have become excellent candidates for next-generation functional membranes. In the past few years, tremendous encouraging experimental and theoretical studies have been conducted on TMDC-based nanomaterials, which opened up a new direction for developing highly selective and permeable membranes. H...
