membrane cleaning strategies

Membrane cleaning strategies involve removing dirt, minerals, and biological buildup that can clog or harm filtration membranes. These methods include physical cleaning, like flushing with water or gentle scrubbing, and chemical cleaning using cleaners such as acids, caustics, or specialized solutions. Regular cleaning restores flow capacity, improves efficiency, and extends membrane lifespan. Some cleaning protocols combine physical and chemical methods, tailored to the specific contaminants and membrane type. Proper scheduling and using appropriate cleaning agents help maintain optimal performance and reduce operational costs in water treatment or filtration systems.
