What Does NDP Stand For?
NDP stands for Net Driving Pressure In Membrane Reverse Osmosis
NDP, or Net Driving Pressure in Membrane Reverse Osmosis, refers to the effective pressure difference that drives the filtration process in reverse osmosis systems. It is calculated by subtracting the osmotic pressure of the feed solution from the applied hydraulic pressure. NDP is a critical parameter influencing water permeability, separation efficiency, and overall system performance, playing a vital role in the design and optimization of membrane filtration processes for water treatment and desalination.
