UF pre-treatment of seawater RO feedwater - performance data

The datasets represent ultrafiltration (UF) operation, for pre-treatment of seawater RO feedwater, over a total period of 422 days. The operational data for UF filtration and backwash were obtained in a field study at Port Hueneme (CA) over a wide range of water quality conditions and coagulant dose. The data were utilized to develop a machine learning model for UF membrane resistance and backwash efficiency. Methods Data of ultrafiltration UF performance (during both filtration and backwash) were collected over a 4-year field study of seawater desalination with UF feedwater pretreatment.
