The commercialization of a high cross-linked polyamide (PA) separation layer for Reverse Osmosis (RO) membrane application has displayed potential in laboratory development work to deliver improved rejection performance for 'bulky' anions, frequently problematic in Reverse Osmosis (RO) (RO). This refined performance reduces the cost of system operation as well as reducing regeneration costs. This article expands on RO membrane chemistry and presents data illustrating differences before and after RO membrane replacement.
