Nanofiltration extends the range of membrane filtration
Abstract
Nanofiltration is a pressure driven membrane process between reverse osmosis and ultrafiltration. The rejection is low for salts with monovalent anion and nonionized organics with molecular weight below 150 while high for salts with di‐ and multivalent anions and organics with molecular weight above 300. Examples of applications are removal of color and TOC from Florida surface water, removal of hardness, radium, and sulfate from well water, removal of sulfate from seawater and simultaneous removal of sodium chloride and concentration of organics with molecular weight 300–1000 in the food and pharmaceutical industries. The investment cost for a nanofiltration plant is about the same as for a brackish water reverse osmosis plant, but the energy savings can be considerable by using nanofiltration instead of reverse osmosis.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
