FOULING IS THE MOST CRITICAL ISSUE IN

MEMBRANE TECHNOLOGY APPLICATIONS

NO SYSTEM DESIGN MODEL CAN PREDICT

FOULING DEVELOPMENT

SYSTEM PERFORMANCE MONITORING IN

REAL-TIME MANDATORY

EARLY DETECTION OF

FOULING CRITICAL

SMART EARLY-WARNING TECHNOLOGY


www.masar.com

• ALLOWS EARLY DETECTION OF INCREASE IN FOULING

“POTENTIAL” AS A SIGN OF SIGNIFICANT CHANGES IN

CRITICAL PLANT PARAMETERS

• ALLOWS EARLY DETECTION AND MEASUREMENT OF

FOULING & SCALING DEVELOPMENT

WHY REAL-TIME MONITORING IS BETTER THAN TRENDING?

• ALLOWS EFFECTIVE RESPONSE TO “SILENT” ALARMS

(ACTIONABLE MONITORNG)

• MAXIMIZES PROBABILITY OF ADDRESSING OPERATIONAL

AND PERFORMANCE PROBLEMS IN REAL TIME

10


www.masar.com

• OPTIMIZES OPERATIONAL EFFICIENCY ON-LINE

RECOVERY RATIO & PRODUCTIVITY (RO/NF SYSTEMS)

MEMBRANE REPLACEMENTS & ADDITIONS

CHEMICAL DOSINGS

PERIODIC & MAINTENANCE MEMBRANE CLEANINGS

AVAILABILITY & PERMEABILITY (UF/MF SYSTEMS)

DYNAMIC MEMBRANE PERFORMANCE COMPARISONS

WHY REAL-TIME MONITORING IS BETTER THAN TRENDING?

www.masar.com

• SMART™ PROPRIETARY TECHNOLOGY BASED ON

EXTENSIVE FIELD DATA AND PLANT EVALUATIONS.

• REQUIRES SAME INPUT AS REQUIRED BY ASTM D-4516

STANDARD NORMALIZATION METHOD.

• UNIVERSAL APPLICATIONS FOR ALL MEMBRANE-BASED

WATER DESALINATION AND FILTRATIONSYSTEMS OF ANY

FEED SOURCE, MEMBRANE TYPE, MANUFACTURES AND

DESIGN CONFIGURATIONS.

MASAR® Program Applications

www.masar.com

• DETECTS, MEASURES AND MONITORS FOULING & SCALING

DEVELOPMENT RO/NF MEMBRANE SYSTEMS AS SOON AS

THEY START IN REAL-TIME.

• MEASURES AND MONITORS PERMEABILITIES OF UF/MF

MEMBRANE SYSTEMS IN REAL-TIME, ALERTING TO

IRREGULAR & UNEXPECTED CHANGES IN DIRECTION.

• MEASURES FOULING “POTENTIAL” OF MEMBRANE SYSTEMS

AS FUNCTION OF DESIGN, OPERATIONAL & MAINTENANCE

REGIMES, ALLOWING FOR CONTINUOUS OPTIMIZATION.

FOULING MONITOR (FM) GUIDELINES FOR SWRO/NF SYSTEMS


14


FM RANGE FOULING STATUS RECOMMENDED ACTION

0%-5% No significant fouling. Good operation. Continue to monitor.

5%-15% Low to moderate fouling may

be starting to develop.

Monitor more closely. Consider trouble-

shooting if FM trend continues to rise.

15%-25% Moderate to heavy fouling is

in progress.

Start trouble-shooting immediately to

identify and eliminate source of fouling.

> 25% Heavy to irreversible fouling

is occurring.

Significant membrane replacements

and/or additions required due to

extensive loss of performance.
