Which outcome occurs when exceeding back pressure limits in reverse osmosis desalination processing?

A)Membrane delamination and reduced flux
B)Increased ion selectivity improvements found
C)Enhanced bulk feed water stabilization
D)Decreased required pre-filtration duration

💡 Explanation

Membrane damage occurs because exceeding back pressure in RO causes reverse permeate flow, resulting in membrane delamination; this mechanism reduces flux significantly. Therefore, membrane failure occurs, rather than improvements which require controlled forward pressure.
