Summar

9、y of Practice4.1 This practice consists of calculating the potential forscaling by CaSO4, SrSO4, and BaSO4in a reverse osmosis ornanofiltration concentrate stream from the concentration ofCa+,Sr+,Ba+, and SO45in the feed solution and the recoveryof the reverse osmosis or nanofiltration system.4.2 Th

10、is practice also presents techniques to eliminatescaling by decreasing the recovery, by decreasing the Ca+,Sr+, and Ba+concentrations in the feed water, and byaddition of scale inhibitors.5. Significance and Use5.1 In the design and operation of reverse osmosis andnanofiltration installations, it is

11、 important to predict the CaSO4,SrSO4, and BaSO4scaling properties of the concentrate stream.Because of the increase in total dissolved solids and theincrease in concentration of the scaling salts, the scalingproperties of the concentrate stream will be quite different fromthose of the feed solution

12、. This practice permits the calculationof the scaling potential for the concentrate stream from the feedwater analyses and the reverse osmosis or nanofiltrationoperating parameters.5.2 Scaling by CaSO4, SrSO4, and BaSO4will adverselyaffect the reverse osmosis or nanofiltration performance.

For most reverse osmosis a

Adjustments for Scale Control8.1 If the IPcfor CaSO4, SrSO4, and BaSO4is less than theKspor the recommended fraction of Ksp, a higher recovery canbe used with respect to scaling by the various salts. Reiterationof the calculations at higher recovery can be used to determinethe ma

28、ximum conversion with respect to scaling by the varioussalts.8.2 If the IPcfor CaSO4, SrSO4, or BaSO4is greater thanthe Kspof the recommended fraction of Ksp, a lower recoverymust be used to prevent scaling. Reiteration of the calculationsat lower recovery can be used to determine the allowablerecov

29、ery with respect to scaling by the various salts.8.3 If the maximum allowable recovery is lower thandesired, sodium cycle ion exchange (softening) can be used toremove all or part of the Ca+,Sr+, and Ba+. This will permithigher recovery of the reverse osmosis or nanofiltration systemwith respect to

30、scaling by the various salts.8.4 Lime softening with lime or lime plus soda ash willdecrease the Ca+concentration and thus permit higher con-version with respect to scaling by CaSO4.8.5 Addition of a scale inhibitor to the feed stream permitsoperation of the reverse osmosis or nanofiltration system
