Multistage operation
If the filtrate flow rate decreases with increasing feed concentration, it is possible to operate in a multistage configuration. In this
configuration, the concentrate from the first stage is fed to the second stage. This means that the flow rate is higher in the first
stages and only lower in the later stages. This configuration allows for fewer modules for a system.
