With the experience of more than two decades in water analysis,Vipanan offers Membrane Autopsy Services to its customer’s which helps to understand the exact root cause of membrane failure and define methods of troubleshooting.

Desalination membranes such as NF and RO membranes tend to undergo performance deterioration with time, which depends on the efficiency of the pre-treatment. The decline in performance due to fouling or scaling of the membrane, in many cases, can be restored to some extent by means of chemical cleaning. However, the performance decline due to irreversible damage to membrane polymer cannot be restored. In order to find out the actual reason for the irreversible decline in membrane performance, autopsy becomes very essential, in addition to the investigation of the operation history of the membrane.
