Abstract
In this work attempts were made to evaluate commercial seawater revers e osmosis (RO) membrane cleaning agents against the membrane manufactu rer's recommended cleaning agents. Results indicate that the commercia l cleaning agents used in this study are generally more effective in r estoring the performance of fouled membrane than the conventional clea ning agents recommended by the membranes manufacturers.
