Dear all,
I am looking for a reverse osmosis system to concentrate a sugar solution at laboratory scale. The volumes I am going to treat are quite small, 10 - 50 mL and therefore I am looking for a RO system with low dead volume. Do you have any suggestion to solve my problem?
Thank,
Maurizio
Dear Maurizio Gualtieri
You can use a laboratory scale system that contains a low feed pump and small size membrane cell (with flat sheet membrane) so you can treat are quite small, 10 - 50 mL of your feed.
Regards
3D print a cell! Resin based printing can easily lead to dense materials allowing for pressure resistant vessels. The cell may be further coated as needed by PDMS or another polymer in case you are worried about photocrosslinker diffusion from the resin. Only drawback, most of the existing resins will not be able to operate above 50 oC (else they might slightly soften).
You can even include the spacer in your design if you prepare it carefully :). MP if more details are needed.
