Filtration artifacts caused by overloading membrane filters.
The conventional practice of using 0.45 or 0.40 microm membranes to distinguish between the particulate and dissolved phases in natural waters neglects the importance of colloids. Many of the colloids in natural waters pass through 0.45 or 0.40 microm membranes, but a significant fraction at the upper end of the colloidal particle size range is retained. Membrane clogging during filtration decr...
متن کاملFiltration in the Use of Individual Water Purification Devices
This information paper provides an in-depth review of filtration (including adsorption and ion exchange) as a pathogen and particulate reduction mechanism when treating natural waters. This paper is intended to assist the reader in evaluating the capabilities of Individual Water Purification Devices (IWPDs) using size exclusion, adsorption, and/or ion exchange to reduce disease-causing bacteria...

متن کاملMembraneless water filtration using CO2
Water purification technologies such as microfiltration/ultrafiltration and reverse osmosis utilize porous membranes to remove suspended particles and solutes. These membranes, however, cause many drawbacks such as a high pumping cost and a need for periodic replacement due to fouling. Here we show an alternative membraneless method for separating suspended particles by exposing the colloidal s...
متن کاملWater Filtration Using Plant Xylem
Effective point-of-use devices for providing safe drinking water are urgently needed to reduce the global burden of waterborne disease. Here we show that plant xylem from the sapwood of coniferous trees--a readily available, inexpensive, biodegradable, and disposable material--can remove bacteria from water by simple pressure-driven filtration. Approximately 3 cm(3) of sapwood can filter water ...
