LG BW 4021 ES

Engineering summary from PDF text extraction for LG BW 4021 ES. Verify every value with the OEM datasheet.

Summary

Product identification

LG Chem’s NanoH2O™ LG BW 4021 ES are brackish water Reverse Osmosis (RO) membranes. These are "Energy Saving" (ES) elements, offering high permeability at low feed pressure for reduced operating costs. They are suitable for low to medium salinity brackish water applications.

They incorporate innovative Thin Film Nanocomposite (TFN) technology, providing superior performance and intrinsic anti-fouling properties.
