Which outcome results where salinity drastically increases near a reverse osmosis (RO) membrane?

A)Scaling potential significantly escalates because
B)Membrane flux unpredictably increases modestly
C)System energy use dramatically decreases slightly
D)Feed-water microbial fouling dramatically reduce

💡 Explanation

Scaling significantly escalates because concentration polarization increases ionic compound saturation at the membrane surface; therefore minerals precipitate, rather than improvements in reduction, decreases in usage or less fouling.
