Abstract

This study reported on the preparation of newly low pressure active reverse osmosis (LPARO) membrane by phase inversion technique. The effect of cetyl trimethylammonium bromide (CTAB) and sodium dodecyl sulphate (SDS) as surfactants on performance and morphological structure were examined. Using brackish water as a sample, the membrane performance was evaluated in terms of pure water permeation (PWP), flux and salt rejection. Experimental data revealed that at 2.0 wt. % of SDS, the LPARO membrane achieved the optimum performance and produced the finest membrane. � 2016, Malaysian Society of Analytical Sciences.
