This study evaluates the performance of two nanofiltration membranes in removing a herbicide: dichloroaniline. The membranes, one polyamide and one cellulose acetate, have a cut-off in the range 150-300 g/mol (manufacturers' data). The experiments were carried out with solutions of dichloroaniline in demineralized water, with concentrations from I to 10 ppb. For each membrane, the amount of herbicide retained and adsorbed by the membrane was determined as a function of feed concentration and transmembrane pressure. The two membranes, made of different materials but having the same nominal cut-off, retained dichloroaniline to very different extents and by different mechanisms. (c) 2005 Elsevier Ltd.
