Membranes are subject to bio fouling and can accumulate bacteria and micro organisms on the surface which might slip through the membrane to the permeate. Therefore to use only membrane as disinfectant is not recommendable. Always have another disinfection method after the membranes in case you want to produce drinking water. I can recommend Quantum technology filters from Claire Industry or the traditional ways like UV light, Ozone or Chlorine Dioxide in order to assure micro biological safety of the permeate.
