Abstract

Abstract The separation characteristics of cellulose acetate/reverse osmosis (RO) membranes toward trace levels of lindane in water were investigated. A large fraction of this pesticide readily traversed the membrane; another portion, although tenaciously sorbed in or on the membrane, was slowly released into the product water. The implications of these observations on RO systems for municipal, domestic, and hospital use are discussed.
