BW (Brackish Water) Membranes

Brief Introduction
The BW series is an aromatic polyamide composite membrane element for brackish water desalination. It has the characteristics of high water production and good desalination performance. In addition, it has high performance in removing soluble salts, TOC, and SiO 2, and is especially suitable for the making of

highly purified water in the electronics and power industries.
It is suitable for desalination treatment of surface water, groundwater, tap water, and municipal water with salt content less than 10,000 ppm. It is mainly used for industrial pure water of various scales, boiler feed water of power plants, and other industrial water. It can also be used for the treatment of brackish water applications such as high-concentration saline wastewater and beverage water manufacturing.In the 
FR series, the surface of this membrane was treated by special technology, which changed the electric charge and smoothness of the membrane surface, increased the hydrophilicity of the membrane surface, thus reducing the contamination of pollutants and microorganisms on the membrane surface, and
achieving the purpose of reducing the contamination of membrane components and prolonging the service life.

Scope of Application

It is mainly used in various fields of industry, such as pure water, boiler recharge water, food processing and pharmaceutical manufacturing.

FAQ about BW Membrane

A brackish water RO membrane is a reverse osmosis membrane specially designed for treating water with higher salt content than freshwater but lower salinity than seawater.Runmo BWRO membranes use advanced reverse osmosis technology to remove dissolved salts and impurities, providing reliable water purification performance for industrial applications.

The main difference between BWRO and SWRO membranes is the salinity level of the feed water.

BWRO membranes are designed for brackish water sources such as groundwater, surface water, and municipal water, while SWRO membranes are developed for high-salinity seawater desalination.

Runmo provides different RO membrane solutions according to water quality requirements and treatment conditions.

Brackish water RO membranes are widely used in:

  • Brackish water desalination
  • Groundwater purification
  • Industrial water purification
  • Boiler feed water treatment
  • Municipal water treatment
  • Water reuse applications

Runmo BWRO membranes provide stable performance for various industrial water treatment systems.

Reverse osmosis for brackish water uses pressure to force water through a semi-permeable membrane while rejecting dissolved salts and contaminants.

The process helps produce purified water by reducing total dissolved solids (TDS) and improving water quality.

Runmo brackish water reverse osmosis membranes provide efficient salt rejection and reliable filtration performance.

Choosing the right brackish water RO membrane depends on factors including feed water quality, salt concentration, required water production, and system operating conditions.

Runmo provides professional membrane selection support based on different water treatment requirements.
