Potable Water - Membrane Filtration

Course No. C-1008

Credit: 1 PDH

Course Fee: $28.95 Purchase course

Subject Matter Expert: Edward P. Brunet, Jr., P.E.

Overview

A membrane is a material capable of separating substances when a driving force is applied across the membrane. Relative to traditional potable water treatment processes that focus on liquid-solid separation, membranes are more effective at removing dissolved contaminants from source water. Thus, the popularity of membrane filtration has increased as drinking water standards have become more stringent. While membrane filters were once considered viable technology only for desalination, they are now increasingly employed for removal of bacteria and other microorganisms, particulate material, and natural organic material. As advancements are made in membrane technology, capital and operating costs continue to decline.

In this course the student will review the technical brief Membrane Filtration published by the National Drinking Water Clearinghouse. This course is particularly relevant to engineers involved in the design and selection of water treating and/or distribution systems, as well as engineers who are simply interested in learning more about potable water filtration systems.

The student must take a multiple-choice quiz consisting of ten questions at the end of this course to obtain PDH credits.

 

Specific Knowledge or Skill Obtained

This course teaches the following specific knowledge and skills:

  • The types of membrane filters available (microfiltration, ultrafiltraton, nanofiltration and reverse osmosis) and their relative merits
  • The pore size and operating pressure associated with each membrane process
  • The process, equipment, operation and maintenance associated with the different types of membranes
  • Selection of the most appropriate membrane for a given application
