멤브레인 제조사인 Lanxess사는 올해 7월 low pressure의 담수화 멤브레인을, 그리고 2014년에는 해수용 멤브레인을 개발할 계획임을 밝혔다. 또한 올해 내로 NSF인증추진 예정이며 RO 설계용 소프트웨어 프로그램을 개발하기 위한 투자를 진행하고 있다. 이 프로그램은 ion exchange system에도 적용이 가능하도록 하여 RO와 이온교환장치간의 통합 공동 사용을 최종목표로 하고 있다.

Lanxess promises seawater membranes for 2014
Membrane manufacturer Lanxess is looking to unveil a low-pressure desalination membrane in July with seawater membranes to follow in 2014.
The company is also hoping for NSF certification in April 2013 and is making a major investment in rethinking reverse-osmosis (RO) modelling software.
Alan Sharpe, head of RO for Lanxess, told D&WR that the company's new modelling tool would be derived from its existing software for looking at ion-exchange (IX) systems. It would permit engineers to test the results of bolting an RO and IX system in series and would be using new indices for scaling.
At the AWWA/AMTA Membrane Conference in San Antonio, Texas, this week, the company was also promoting the membranes for strong-fouling waters already featured in D&WR.
