It is obvious that ions are effectively rejected from the membranes of NaA and ZSM-5 and that only water molecules are allowed to pass through the membranes. For all of the solutions, the water fluxes decreased while the ion rejections increased with time. The decrease of the water flux and the enhancement of ion rejection with time can be related to the hydration of the ions in solution and the surface of the membrane pores, which hinders the entry of water molecules and ions. Ion exchange of the investigated cations with sodium cations can also affect the amounts of permeation. On the other hand, this behavior might be attributed to partial fouling of the membrane channels after passing salt solutions and closing the intra-crystalline pores (due to salt precipitation). After blocking of the non-zeolite pores, only zeolitic pores are responsible for water permeation, while ionic species cannot pass across these narrow channels. In the other words, the anions cannot move across the membrane channels because of the negative charge of the zeolite framework, so the cationic species also cannot move through the membrane channels (to keep charge neutrality).
