Optimization of the Osmosis Process for the Potabilization of Wadi Oum Er-Rbia Water: Analysis of Hydraulic and Quality Parameters

Abstract

The main objective of this study is to optimize the reverse osmosis process in order to ensure the potabilization of water from the Oued Oum Er-Rbia, by determining the most influential parameters. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first study to apply daily PCA-based monitoring on Oued Oum Er-Rbia’s raw water to optimize membrane operation under Moroccan field conditions.To better understand the interactions between quality and hydraulic parameters influencing membrane performance, data were collected from Oued Oum Er-Rbia over multiple seasons. The parameters monitored included turbidity, salinity, temperature, and Silt Density Index (SDI), all known to affect fouling and pretreatment requirements.
