Experiments using electricity to prevent fouling in membrane filtration
conference contribution
posted on 2009-12-14, 16:43 authored by Richard J. Wakeman, Steve TarletonExperimental data obtained from a tubular crossflow filter are presented. The effects of operating
conditions, including feed concentration, crossflow and throughflow velocities, and imposed electric
fields are discussed with reference to the data. A method of reducing the consumption of electrical
power based on some further results is noted. Permeate flux can be considerably enhanced using
a d.c. electric field, and this is attributed to reduced particulate fouling of the membrane.
