[Greenbuilding] Feedback wanted - water treatment process

[sanjay jain]

Thanks Don,

I have that concern too. I suspect filters get clogged when the contaminants fit just right in the pores. That's why it takes a little time for filters to clog, otherwise they'd get clogged very quickly.

I'm hoping that a large difference in size of the dye (or any other solute) molecules will not clog up the pores. Some testing needs to be done to find the right combination of micro-filter (pore size and density) and the right solute that won't cause clogging.

Sanjay- Any chance the ceramic filter may clog with the blue dye molecules and prevent the water from being expelled? I would suspect that you may get a few mls and then clog up.

Hi all,
 
Hope everyone had a good holiday. Not sure if attachments are allowed on this list, if the pdf attachment doesn't come through, please take a look at: http://s438261259.onlinehome.us/OMF-Cell-water-treatment.pdf
 
Would appreciate feedback - am I missing something here?
