Usually regular RO spiral element applies a range of feed spacers...I am testing a ro membrane to concentrate fruit juice. I am really confuse about feed spacers...targeting a solution as juice with high content of soluble solids, what is the ideal choice? As bigger as better? Comparing an element (47 mil) against (35 mil)...filtration area will be different? I am know only feed spacer on my experiment is parallell...about sizes (????)...???mil???
