High-Temperature Desalination Capability of TFC 1501 Reverse Osmosis Element.
Abstract
This report covers an investigation conducted to evaluate the desalination capability of TFC 1501 reverse osmosis elements when operated with feedwater the temperature of which is substantially above the maximum operating temperature (113 F) specified by the manufacturer. The results of the investigation indicate: (1) The elements were not degraded in desalinating capability following exposure for 400 h to feedwater at approximately 130 F; (2) the production rate of the elements dropped less than 5 percent following exposure for 400 h to water at approximately 130 F and 200 h at 130 F and 600 lb/sq in.
