Salinity Effect in Permeability of Salt in Nanofiltration and Reverse Osmosis Membranes

ChemistryOpen, EarlyView.
This study assesses the effect of feed salinity (2–6 g L−1) on the performance of two nanofiltration membranes (NF270, NF90) and one reverse osmosis membrane (TM710). NF270 provides the highest permeate flux, while TM710 achieves the best TDS rejection. Increasing salinity reduces flux for all membranes.
