Separation Performance of the Reverse Osmosis Membrane and Its Application in Air-conditioning

Abstract

The separation mechanism of reverse osmosis membrane was described. Flux formulas, applications and limitations of various theoretical separation models were summarized here. The effects that operating pressure, feed temperature, feed concentration and feed flow rate have on performance of the reverse osmosis membrane separation were analyzed systematically. Finally, the applications using reverse osmosis membrane separation technology in refrigeration and air conditioning industry were demonstrated, which provides a reference for the applications of reverse osmosis membrane separation technology in refrigeration and air conditioning industry.
