What Does Ceramic Membrane Flux Mean?

The flux (permeate rate) is the flow rate of liquid that passed through the ceramic membrane layer and out of ceramic membrane in liter/m2.hour.(LMH), Specified permeates are based on a feed pure water temperature of 25°C (77°F) with an average pressure 1bar.

Qp= Vperm/(S*A) l/m2.h
Vperm The volume of the permeation from membrane L
S The time costed H
A The total area for the filtration M2
