← ScienceWhich outcome results where salinity drastically increases near a reverse osmosis (RO) membrane?
A)Scaling potential significantly escalates because✓
B)Membrane flux unpredictably increases modestly
C)System energy use dramatically decreases slightly
D)Feed-water microbial fouling dramatically reduce
💡 Explanation
Scaling significantly escalates because concentration polarization increases ionic compound saturation at the membrane surface; therefore minerals precipitate, rather than improvements in reduction, decreases in usage or less fouling.
