Hydrolysis - RO Membranes

Advanced Reverse Osmosis Technology

Hydrolysis - Chemical breakdown of a membrane from exposure to low or high pH, bio-activity and temperature. Normally associated with CA membranes where the acetyl groups are replaced by hydroxyl groups. Hydrolysis in increased salt leakage (i.e., greater conductivity of the permeate) and a lower feed pressure requirement. Oxidants and temperature can cause hydrolysis in TFC elements.
