Principle of Reverse Osmosis: semi-permeable membrane, molecules, sugar, minerals, mechanical pressure, osmotic pressure, etc.Components of a Concentrator: feed pump, pre-filters, high-pressure pump, membranes, recirculation pump, Brix reader, etc.Composition of Composite and Spiral-Wound Membranes: surface layer, microporous layer, support fabric, membrane film, mesh separator, sealing joint, etc.Membrane Arrangement: parallel, seriesCapacity of a Concentrator: dead volume and residual dead volumeConcentrator Operations: concentration, de-sugaring, washing, rinsingMembrane Fouling: soluble and insoluble residuesCalculation of PWP (Pure Water Permeability) and Membrane Efficiency: filtrate, pressure, flow rate, temperature, correction factor, etc.Periodic Maintenance: pre-filters, membrane storage, operation log, system shutdown at the end of the season
