A Review on Nano Filtration System
Abstract: In the later half of the 1980s, nanofiltration (NF) became a significant development in the purification of water. When NF was first introduced, it was marketed as a less energy-intensive substitute for traditional techniques like reverse osmosis (RO). However, as its special qualities and uses became clear, NF was acknowledged as a separate technology in 1988. Comprehending the differences between ultrafiltration (UF), RO, and NF is essential to appreciating its …
