Abstract
This paper describes integrated membrane systems (IMS) performance at five sites, which employed chloramination, coagulation, sedimentation and filtration, GAC and/or size exclusion membrane filtration to enhance IMS productivity. Results indicate that effects of fouling are site specific, biological>organic>particle>precipitative fouling and all fouling mechanisms must be controlled for satisfactory IMS productivity for surface water sources.
