Fouling of polyelectrolyte multilayer based nanofiltration membranes during produced water treatment: The role of surfactant size and chemistry

Ettore Virga et al.

Summary: Large volumes of water become contaminated with various chemical agents during Oil & Gas exploration activities, resulting in a complex wastewater stream known as produced water (PW). Nanofiltration (NF) membranes are a promising alternative for the treatment of PW to facilitate its re-use, but membrane fouling remains a major obstacle. The study found that fouling of PEM-based NF membranes during the treatment of artificial produced water is mainly caused by surfactant uptake inside of the PEM coating.
