Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of testing devices, and in particular relates to a reverse osmosis membrane scale inhibition performance testing device. Background Art

[0002] Reverse osmosis technology is a commonly used technical means for industrial water treatment. Industrial water contains minerals such as calcium and magnesium, which will affect the utilization of water and will be deposited on the surface of the reverse osmosis membrane during filtration, causing the performance of the reverse osmosis membrane to weaken and affecting the treatment effect. In order to reduce the deposition on the surface of the reverse osmosis membrane, scale inhibitors are often added.

[0003] Reverse osmosis membranes can effectively remove total dissolved solids, heavy metals, organic compounds, bacteria and viruses in water. Due to the high cost of reverse osmosis membranes, the selected reverse osmosis membranes must have excellent performance and be able to be used stably for a long time. The performance and dosage of antiscalants are directly related to the service life of reverse osmosis membranes. It is very important to use antiscalants reasonably, both to ensure their effectiveness and to avoid the negative effects caused by excessive use. Therefore, it is urgent to develop a reverse osmosis membrane antiscaling performance test device to screen out the appropriate type of antiscalants and the appropriate dosage to extend the service life of reverse osmosis membranes.

[0017] The beneficial effects of the utility model are:
