We present the possibility to replace the first-stage reverse osmosis (RO) seawater by nanofiltration (NF) membranes. Then, we tested few membranes in the laboratory (NF200, NF2540, MPS44, and MPS34) on synthetic and natural seawater, for 2.6 m2 membrane area pilot. We observed that the membrane NF200 is the best membrane from all tested due to its higher productivity with 1.8 L h−1 m−2 bar−1 and its higher salt rejection with 60%. Furthermore, as expected, NF200 filtration of natural seawater permits to decrease SDI3 to a value of 4 ± 2%/min and total organic carbon under 0.1 mg/L, eliminating totally the risk of biofouling development on second-stage RO treatment. The configuration NF200-SW30 gave the best energy gain with 29%. The permeate obtained presents a total dissolved solids of 324 ppm and the flow yield ratio increase of 16%, in reference to SW30-SW30 configuration. Also, we tested the limits of ROSATM simulation, especially for NF membranes. We observed lots of flaws, especially for high pressures and high salts concentrations. As a consequence, each simulation realized for NF must be validated by experiments on real seawater to a sufficient scale and during sufficient time of experiments.

Pontie MaximeThe overall objective of the present work was to estimate the degradation level of old reverse osmosis (RO) membranes in terms of permeability and salt rejection, along with their potential reuse as ultrafiltration (UF) membranes after NaOCl oxidation at 62,500 ppm for 3 h. Detailed study of old RO membrane materials deconstruction has also resulted in recommendations in their reuse as geotextile, mouse pad, support for children drawings, protection to snake attack, and aromatic wall in familial kitchen; all being alternatives solutions to incineration. At the end of the work, 95% of the old RO membrane materials were recycled.

The possibility of producing drinking water from brackish groundwater polluted with F− using nanofiltration (NF) process was previously studied at a pilot scale. Brackish groundwaters were taken from the south of Morocco (Tan Tan city) and from the center west of Senegal (Thiadiaye City). The performances of few commercialized NF spiral wound elements, low-pressure reverse osmosis (LPRO), and reverse osmosis (RO) were compared to a large-scale pilot experiments (membrane area, 7.6 m2). The following parameters were determined: hydraulic permeability, total salinity; and Cl−, F−, and SO4 2− removals were compared under the influence of various experimental parameters such as flow yield ratio, transmembrane pressure, energy consumption and water compositions before and after treatment. This study shows that NF provides specific advantages for fluoride removal as compared to LPRO and RO. Indeed, NF permits to reduce partially the total salinity and to reject selectively fluorides with a high flow yield ratio, at low pressure (lower than 20 bars) and therefore with a low energy consumption as compared to actual RO membranes. Furthermore, this paper presents the first NF plant in the world dedicated to water defluoridation by nanofiltration and built recently in Thiadiaye (Senegal) (fresh water production 33,000 L/h).

About Me
Maxime Pontié was born on March 14th in 1968, Montauban, France. He is full professor and works at the University of Angers since 2004. He received a PhD degree under professors Lemordant and Rumeau in 1996 from the University Francois Rabelais in Tours, France. After a postdoctoral research study with
professor R.W. Bowen, Swansea University of Wales, UK, with a research topic dedicated to mass transfer mechanism in nanofiltration, he obtained a lecturer position in Chimie Paris Tech from 1997 to 2004. He obtained the award of best paper in J. Memb. Science in 2000 from the European Membrane Society. His first research interest was dedicated to water desalination membrane processes with a way to intensify the processes in a sustainable development approach. Since 2019, he has been the manager of a young research team entitled Groupe of Analysis and Processes (GA&P). He has over 100 publications that have been cited over 100 times, and his publication H-index is 54. He has been serving as an editorial
board member of reputed Journals. He was a board member of the European Desalination Society (EDS) during the period 2012 to 2017. Since 2021 he was a board member of the French Chemical Society dedicated to energy activities/animations and teaching. Its recent research are dedicated to fungal
microbial fuel cell development for organic micropollutants bioremediation associated with electrochemical sensors box development (iMERMAID.eu).
