This highly specialized test provides a visual representation of membrane foulants and the surrounding area which is useful in determining particle size and morphology.
In addition to a standard SEM, PWT's backscatter electron imaging (BSE) capabilities give technicians a unique advantage in evaluating particle structures. BSE imaging distinguishes between particles based on atomic weight (the darker the particle image, the heavier the atomic weight).
SEM and BSE, when combined with our unique Targeted Energy Dispersion X-Ray Analysis , is a valuable tool in determining specific membrane scale and foulants so that membrane cleaning and pretreatment may be optimized.
