ABSTRACT

This document describes a test method to determine possible adverse effects of membrane elements and modules for water treatment on drinking water quality. In principle, this document applies to modules for microfiltration, ultrafiltration, nanofiltration, reverse osmosis and electrodialysis, which are used for water treatment in public waterworks and in drinking water installations. An evaluation of the effectiveness of membrane filters in removing contaminants in the treated water is not made.
