Alkaline Membrane Cleaner for RO Membranes for Effective Removal of Biological Growth Organic Fouling

5 lb Pail of AM-22 Alkaline Cleaner for RO Membranes


In normal operation, the membrane sheet in reverse osmosis membrane elements can become fouled by suspended solids, microorganisms, and mineral scale. AM-22 Alkaline RO membrane cleaner is specifically formulated to clean biological growth (also known as organic fouling) from RO membranes.

Organic Fouling can be identified by the following symptoms:

  • The RO Membrane will likely exhibit low permeate flow
  • Salt rejection will usually be as good if not better than original test
  • The membrane may have strong odor
  • Possible mold growth on the membrane scroll end

Regular cleaning of the membrane elements minimizes the loss of performance and extends membrane life. Membrane elements should be cleaned whenever the normalized permeate water output rate drops by 10% from its initial flow rate (the flow rate established during the first 24 to 48 hours of operation), when salt passage in the product water increases over 5-10%, or when normalized pressure drop across the membrane increases by 10-15%.

AM-22-5 RO alkaline membrane cleaner is sold in powder form in a 1 gallon pail. Chemical mixing instructions, membrane cleaning instructions, product specifications, and SDS/MSDS sheets are included with each container. AM-22 is not considered DOT hazardous for shipping.

Applied Membranes, Inc. alkaline membrane cleaner is a result of over 35 years of hands-on experience of water quality engineers and chemists. WaterAnywhere offers technical expertise and assistance in troubleshooting and cleaning of RO membranes to give you an optimum system performance.

2) Circulate the cleaning solution through the system for 20 minutes.
3) Flush the system to rinse out the chemical before returning to service.


Benefits of Regular Use of AMI Acid and Alkaline Membrane Cleaners

  • Maintains system performance and product water quality at a higher level
  • Reduces Operating Costs by reducing energy requirements to reach required product flow
  • Reduces Maintenance costs by prolonging membrane life, and reducing strain on other components in the system

RO Membrane Cleaning Sequence:

It is recommended to start with the alkaline cleaning then follow with the acid cleaning after the system has been flushed.
1. Alkaline Cleaning - AM-22 (if required)
2. FLUSH
3. Acid Cleaning - AM-11
4. FLUSH

Note: Acid cleaning may be performed alone, but alkaline cleanings should always be followed by an acid cleaning after the system has been flushed.

Good but Installation was a Bit Iffy
Model: iPad A16 11th/10th/Air 11
90% of the time I use my iPad for school. Originally, I used just a regular screen protector, but it would get dirty with smudges and imprints from my Apple Pencil, and there would be a lot of glare since I'm in a classroom most of the time, which would make it awkward to see what I was writing at times. Plus, the screen protector was too smooth so it would actually be difficult to write legibly. This product makes it a lot easier to write smoother on the iPad. I only just installed it, so I can't say much on the smear protection yet, but I can already see the reduction in glare as well. For $8, getting a pack of two of these with an install kit is a very nice deal imo. My only issue was the installation process, which could've been as much my own fault tbh, but I felt like I aligned the screen protector pretty well with the sticker, however the first time I tried installing it it was way off the center (maybe my case got in the way?). The biggest issue was using the squeegee to pop air bubbles, and this is something they don't mention in neither their instruction guide nor video, but you're supposed to used the velvet red side, not the naked white side: using the white side actually takes the grit off the protector, which is obviously something you don't want on a product that relies on it. Thankfully I have another one in reserve in case this one wears off sooner than expected.

Perfect Paperlike substitute
Model: iPad Air/Pro 13
I’ve been using this screen for roughly two months now and I can say it was so worth it, it is rough on plastic nibs! I am going to order some heavier duty ones and see how it fairs! It works just fine ON TOP of a screen protector isn’t that great! I wanted something like paper like but didn’t want to pay that expensive price for something I wasn’t sure I was going to like. This one does the trick and gives me just enough resistance to feel more in control of my pen! It fits well just make sure to know the size if your screen I had to modify where the camera indent was but it cut just fine and looks great!

Wow! So cheap and really high quality!
Model: iPad Air/Pro 13
Very nice texture, affordable, durable, easy to mount. No longer get tons of grease marks from my hands, the glare is reduced, it fits the screen perfectly, there’s no tint to the color so it doesn’t distort the image. Great product for a great price.

Feels like paper and makes writing fun!
Model: iPad A16 11th/10th/Air 11
I was hesitant to start using my iPad for class because I HATED how my Apple Pencil sounded hitting the screen while I was writing. This product has completely changed my mind and now I use it almost daily! I love the feel of this screen and it has lasted all semester long. It was a little tricky getting the screen on just right, and I had to use both because the first time I had a bunch of air bubbles, but the second time was perfect! I think you would probably want to get a new screen every year to ensure it still has that paper-like feel, but I think that’s totally reasonable!
