CONCLUSION

From the experiment, the value of flux at the first 5 minutes at inlet pressure of 2 bar, 3
−6 m −6 m −6 m −6 m
bar, 4 bar, and 5 bar are 12.500 ×10 , 10.970 ×10 , 8.333 ×10 and 8.611 ×10
s s s s
respectively. For graph of flux versus time at all inlet pressure, it can be seen that value of flux
decreases with time. This is because with increasing time, the thickness of cake layer also
increases. For Brix versus time at all inlet pressure, Brix does not have significance change due to
flux could become independent of pressure if the pressure is beyond a critical point. In conclusion,
flux is proportional to the volume of filtrate and inversely proportional to the membrane area and
time.
