Can the reverse osmosis pure water system start and stop frequently ？

The membrane system is designed based on continuous operation, but in actual operation, there will always be a certain frequency of startup and shutdown. When the membrane system is shut down, the produced water or pre-treated qualified water must be used for low-pressure flushing to replace high-concentration but scale inhibitor-containing concentrated water from the ro membrane elements. Measures should also be taken to prevent water from leaking in the system and introducing air, because if the components lose water and dry out, irreversible water flux loss may occur. If the shutdown is less than 24 hours, there is no need to take measures to prevent the growth of microorganisms. However, if the shutdown time exceeds the above-mentioned regulations, a protective liquid should be used for system preservation or regular flushing of the membrane system.
