Abstract：

The effect of calcium and magnesium ions on organic fouling of reverse osmosis membrane is investigated by different pretreatment ways and preparing magnesium-free artificial seawater. The results show that flux decline of reverse osmosis membrane is effectively controlled by hardness removal pretreatment. Under one certain concentration of humic acid(HA), the conventional pretreatment may lead to a rapid decrease of membrane flux and salt rejection compared with hardness removal pretreatment because hardness ions in seawater accelerate organic fouling of reverse osmosis membrane. The reverse osmosis membrane flux and salt rejection decreased with increasing of calcium concentration in magnesium-free artificial seawater, and due to the complexation of calcium ion with humic acid, UV254 rejection increased with increasing of calcium concentration.
