2019 Membrane Technology Conference Program 2019 Membrane Program_FINAL_REVISED | Page 2

2019 Membrane Technology Conference | NOLA | February 26-28, 2019 | Booth 503 1999-2019 Celebrating our past. Inspiring our future. THE POWERFUL CONVERGENCE OF DESIGN, TECHNOLOGY, AND PRACTICAL APPLICATION. JOIN US FOR LIVE INNOVATION TALKS AT AVISTA BOOTH 503. Avista experts share three innovative technologies, review how each is applied, and evaluate the impact on system performance. Participants will enter to win a top-trending tech gift— raffled at the end of each talk. You will not want to miss these! The science of foulant deposition – a vivid 3D perspective Megan Lee will guide you through the peaks and valleys of foulants in a 3D world. The contaminants, minerals and impurities deposited on the membrane surface during the reverse osmosis processes - What are they? How did they form? And most importantly, how can we remove and prevent them? Tuesday, February 26 10:30am - 11:00am Wednesday, February 27* 4:00pm - 4:30pm Thursday, February 28 09:00am - 09:30am *Avista will host a Social Hour from 4:00pm-5:00pm. Join us for a slice of cake and a beer to celebrate Avista’s 20 years of innovation and listen to “The science of foulant deposition – a vivid 3D perspective” innovation talk from 4:00pm-4:30pm. The power of cloning membrane performance What if, instead of having an invasive heart procedure, your doctor was able to clone your heart in a small, self-contained box outside of your body? It would experience the exact events occurring within your heart real-time and then be examined to confirm a diagnosis and cure. Nagham Najeeb explores how this concept is being applied to membrane systems. Tuesday, February 26 01:30pm - 02:00pm Wednesday, February 27 1:30pm - 2:00pm Impact system operations using chemical dosing software We have complex ions to make antiscalant dosing more accurate; now what? As systems are being pushed to treat more challenging waters at higher recoveries, the need for accurate yet easy-to-use scaling calculations becomes critical. Raul Gonzalez demonstrates how a chemical dosing software can maximize recovery potential and more accurately predict chemical use.
