Abstract

As pure and drinking water system is universally employed in industry, reverse osmosis system (ROS) has been becoming increasingly popular due to its efficiency in salt and organic rejection. However the membrane system needs regular cleaning. This paper presents a new method for automation cleaning of reverse osmosis system using computer monitoring process. We analyze the trend of membrane performance and discuss automation cleaning. The membrane performance consists of TDS, water flow, pressure and temperature. These variables are analyzed for automation cleaning in order to maintain productivity and performance of RO system.
