Understanding Scaling andSticking
Membrane scaling ande sticking are distint but often interrelated problems. Scaling is primaryly a chemical precipitation process condin by supersturation of dissolved saltes in thee feed water. When thee concentration of a scaling salt excedes its solubility product, crystals nucleat and grow thee mee surface, forming a densie, often tenacious layer. Sticking, by contract, incommives thee physicomient of suspended d d d, organic macrous, of microus, or microorganismicroorganics.
