2. A sodium chloride solution was prepared by adding 100g of sodium chloride into 20L of
water.
3. The tank was filled up with the salt solution that was prepared in step 2. The feed was
4. The power for control panel was turned on. All sensors and indicators were checked to
functioning properly.
5. Thermostat was switched on and the thermo oil level was checked to make sure it is
above the coil inside thermostat. The thermostat was checked if connections were
properly fitted.
Experiment procedure
1. The experiment was started with membrane 1. Valves V2, V5, V7, V11 and V15 were
opened.
2. To set the maximum working pressure at 20 bars, the plunger pump (P1) was switched on
and valve V5 was slowly closed. The pressure value at pressure gauge was observed and
3. Valve V5 was opened. Then, membrane maximum inlet pressure was set to 18 bars for
4. The system was allowed to run for 5 minutes. Sample from permeate sampling port was
collected and the sample was weighed using digital weighing balance. The weight of
5. The step 1 to 5 was repeated for Membrane 2, 3 and 4. The respective sets of valves were
opened and closed and the membrane maximum inlet pressure was adjusted for every
membrane.
3. All liquid in the feed tank and product tank were drained by opening valves V3 and V4.
4. The entire pipes were flushed with clean water. V3 and V4 were closed; the clean water
5. The system was run with the clean water until the feed tank is nearly empty.
