低压膜过滤通常用于处理凝结和过滤后的地表水 沉淀作用。然而，最近膜技术的进步使之成为可能 凝结后直接采用低压膜过滤，无沉淀 必修的。主要是由于消毒副产品（DBP）和 即将出台的关于隐孢子虫的法规，德克萨斯州克尔维尔市正计划 通过安装膜过滤，扩建其5 mgd常规水处理厂（WTP） 与化学凝固相结合。Kerrville水处理厂的水源为地表水 来自瓜达卢佩河，其总有机碳（TOC）范围为1至10 mg/L。 为确保长期遵守法规，使用低压膜直接凝固 瓜达卢佩河水的处理选择先过滤后氯化。 强化凝固提供DBP控制，膜可去除病原体，以及氯 提供病毒灭活和残留消毒剂以供分发。包括表格、数字。

Low-pressure membrane filtration is typically used to treat surface water after coagulation and sedimentation. However, recent advancements in membrane technology are making it possible to incorporate low-pressure membrane filtration directly after coagulation with no sedimentation required. Due primarily to stringent regulations regarding disinfection byproducts (DBPs) and upcoming regulations regarding Cryptosporidium, the City of Kerrville, Texas is planning to expand its 5 mgd conventional water treatment plant (WTP) by installing membrane filtration combined with chemical coagulation. The source water for the Kerrville WTP is surface water from the Guadalupe River, which has a range of total organic carbon (TOC) from 1 to 10 mg/L. To ensure long-term regulatory compliance, direct coagulation with low-pressure membrane filtration followed by chlorination was selected for treatment of Guadalupe River water. Enhanced coagulation provides DBP control, membranes enable pathogen removal, and chlorine provides viral inactivation and a residual disinfectant for distribution. Includes tables, figures.
