Cleaning the membranes

 

To prevent the membranes from fouling it is strongly recommended to clean the membranes periodically.

The most common techniques are:

  • Running the diffusers with the maximum overload airflow (air bumping) for a short period of time.
  • Inject formic acid into the airflow
  • Flush the whole system with acid or alkaline solution
  • Dewater the tank and blow off the fouling with an high-pressure water jet
