4. Which of the following may not be a potentialreverse osmosis membrane materialPolystyrene-butadiene rubber

5. In which of the following modules will you encounter most pressure drop?=Hollow fibre module

6. Which of the following statements is not the reason, why gaskets in plate and frame filters have a tortuous path?=Increase area of filtration

7. Which membrane processes will require highest pressure?=Ultra filtration

8. Rejection of ammonium hydroxide will be higher at pH = 14 than at pH = 5? (pKa = 10.5)=False

9. Which of the following is not one of the reasons for failure of reverse osmosis systems?=High solvent concentration
