欧文牧场水区正在调查高颜色地下水的使用情况，以减少对其他水源的依赖。本研究评估了去除颜色和消毒副产物前体的各种处理方法。测定了六种膜的生产率和成分截留特性。膜A和膜B的比生产率明显高于其他类型的膜。所有膜都能够处理有色水，以满足所报告参数方面的既定水质目标。所有的滤膜在颜色、紫外线吸收率、TOC或三天THMFP方面都能去除90%以上的有机物。所有膜产生的水TOC小于1 mg/L，颜色小于等于3个单位，THMFP小于27 mg/L。膜A的无机成分截留率显著低于其他膜；这对于膜浓缩物的再利用或处理以及渗透液的后处理（稳定）都是有利的。

The Irvine Ranch Water District is investigating use of a highly colored groundwater to reduce dependency on other sources. This study evaluated various treatments to remove both color and disinfection byproduct precursors. The productivity and constituent rejections characteristics of six membranes were determined. Membranes A and B demonstrated significantly greater specific productivity than the other membrane types. ALl the membranes were capable of treating the colored water to meet the established water quality goals with respect to the parameters reported. All the membranes rejected more than 90 percent of the organics in terms of color, UV absorbance, TOC, or 3-day THMFP. All the membranes produced water with TOC less than 1 mg/L, color at 3 units or less, and THMFP less than 27 mg/L. Rejection rates of the inorganic constituents for Membranes A were substantially lower than those of the other membranes; this could be advantageous with respect to membrane concentrate reuse or disposal as well as to posttreatment (stabilization) of the permeate.
