This powerpoint presentation begins by providing a brief overview of low pressure membranes (LPMs). The objectives of this research were to: establish a standardized bench-scale testingsystem for low-pressure, hollow-fibermembranes;develop appropriate parameters to bedetermined with the system; and,validate the applicability of the system tomembranes employed in large-scale watertreatment. A standardized bench-scale system for LPHFmembranes is presented, including configurations,components/parts, testing protocols, andproperties of membranes and feedwaters. Presentation conclusions include: a standardized bench-scale testing system wasdeveloped for LPHF membranes used in large-scalewater treatment;membrane performances can be evaluatedquantitatively using UMFIs and removal efficiencies(or contaminant levels in the permeate);the bench-scale system served as a convenient toolfor the assessment and, potentially, quantitativeprediction of the performance of realistic membranes. Includes tables, figures.
