with a tarp or some other plastic sheet that will protect the module from dust, wind and direct
sunlight.
Never use a pressure washer machine when washing the
membrane module and element which can cause fatal
delamination of membrane element edge.
Keep the membranes wet once they get wet. If the membranes are
allowed to dry out, the permeability of the membranes may be
permanently reduced.
9. Disposing Procedure
When disposing of the membrane after use, please follow these general guidelines.
(1) Clean the membrane module with clean water. After the module has been rinsed off
allow the surfaces to dry. Dry surfaces make handling and transport easier.
(2) Dispose of the module or module components in a locally approved manner taking into
account of local regulations for waste disposal. If required, disassemble the module and
segregate its components accordingly (e.g. combustible/incombustible).
(3) Do not incinerate the membrane unless appropriate facilities are available. During the
incineration of the membrane materials harmful Hydrogen Fluoride (HF) gas will be
generated. If the membranes are to be incinerated it is recommend that a professional
waste disposal company be hired for the disposal.
Do not burn the membranes without appropriate facilities since
harmful Hydrogen fluoride (HF) gas will be generated. When
disposing of the membrane elements, hire a professional solid
waste disposal company to perform the task.
