This powerpoint presentation begins by providing a brief overview of the project background, including: unintentional indirect potable reuse potential;
pollution by emerging organic micropollutants PhACs, EDCs, and PCPs;
adverse health/ecological consequences such as
cancer,
reproductive effects, and
genital malformation;
limitations of conventional water
treatment to eliminate micropollutants;
compound specific retention
behavior in nanofiltration/reverse osmosis (NF/RO) applications; and,
retention behavior influenced by
modified membrane properties due to fouling. Four methodologies are presented, and results and discussion include: membrane characterization;
impact of J0/k and recovery on rejection; rejection of PhACs/EDCs by clean NF
membranes; and,
rejection of PhACs/EDCs by fouled NF
membranes. Includes tables, figures.
