Tannin: Tannin is a complex polyphenol polymers with a characteristic astringent flavor, extracted from hops and the husks of barley. Tannins react with proteins and contribute to haze formation. In the wine industry it often references the presence of tannic acid that comes from the skins, seeds and stems of the grapes. Tannin is a necessary component of good wine, especially good red wine, and is most evident in the first few years of maturity. Eventually, it subsides during the maturation process. Tannin when young tastes or feels like a cotton swab is being run down your tongue. It is that drying sensation in your mouth not to be confused with the mouth-puckering of acidity.
TEG - Triethylene Glycol: A colorless odorless non volatile hygroscopic liquid whose major application is as a drying agent for natural gas. Synonyms for TEG are triglycol; 2.2-(Ethylene-dioxy) diethanol and ethylene glycol dihydroxydiethyl ether.
Titanium dioxide: The oxide of Titanium metal, TiO2
Total Solids (TS): Total solids dissolved in fluid by percentage.
Trans Membrane Pressure (TMP): The Pressure difference between the membrane feed side and the permeate membrane side.
