The removal of arsenic from water by a loose nanofiltration (NF) membrane was investigated. Prior to the arsenic removal studies, the loose NF membrane was characterized for molecular weight cut-off and pore size by saccharide retention measurements, and electrokinetic charge by streaming potential measurements. In addition, separation of both single salt and mixed salt electrolyte solutions was studied to investigate the ion transport properties of the membrane. Arsenic rejection experiments included variation of pH, arsenic feed concentration, and presence of background electrolyte. In general, arsenic rejection increased with increasing pH and arsenic feed concentration, and was enhanced in the presence of 0.01 M NaCl. Arsenic was removed 60-90% from synthetic feed waters containing 10, 32, 100, and 316 mug/L As(V), resulting in permeate arsenic concentrations of 4, 6, 10, and 25 mug/L, respectively. The behavior of the membrane is consistent with the extended Nernst-Planck equation model predictions for an uncharged membrane where size exclusion controls ion retention. However, separation of Arsenic species was a due to a combination of size exclusion, preferential passage of more mobile ions, and charge exclusion.
