Water production and permeate flow rate of RO reverse osmosis membrane

Jun 04, 2021

RO membrane water production-refers to the water production capacity of the reverse osmosis system, that is, the amount of water passing through the RO membrane per unit time, usually expressed in tons/hour or gallons/day.

The permeate flow rate of the RO membrane is also an important indicator of the water production of the reverse osmosis membrane element. Refers to the flow rate of permeate per unit membrane area, usually expressed in gallons per square foot per day (GFD). Too high permeate flow rate will cause the water velocity perpendicular to the surface of the RO membrane to increase, which will aggravate membrane fouling.
