title: [Application of pressure-driven membrane technologies for the removal of arsenic from drinking water].
abstract: Endemic arsenism caused by ingestion of arsenic-bearing drinking water has been an important public health problem in China. The experimental results of arsenic removal from drinking water by press-driven membrane technologies in recent years are introduced in this paper. Arsenic removal efficiencies and its influencing factors are mainly discussed. It is put forward the idea that coagulation/microfiltration process should be the hotspot in recent study in China due to its high arsenic removal efficiency, low energy consumption and high water recovery.
