Flow channeling caused by random blockages of the feed channels and spacers results in a sharp increase in salt concentration in the affected areas, which in turn triggers precipitation of sparingly soluble salts such as calcium carbonate and sulfate in the feed channels and further exacerbates and accelerates the membrane fouling problem.
