This membrane end-of-life (MemEOL) tool is aimed at promoting better practices in the desalination industry by helping users identify and select the optimum end-of-life option for their used reverse osmosis (RO) membranes. This dynamic and interactive educational tool uses inputs on membrane condition and the relative importance of a number of key criteria to provide recommendation and further information about available end-of-life options.
Membrane Waste Challenge
- Reverse osmosis plants use thousands of 14 kg elements that need to be replaced every 5-10 years.
- In many parts of the world, landfill is currently the only option for disposal.
- Over 12,000 tonnes of membranes per year to be disposed globally by 2015.
- Many reuse and recycle options are available for this valuable commodity.
