1. A system with enhanced water flux through a filter membrane, the system comprisingan electromagnetic radiator which produces high-power, pulsed blackbody, deep-ultraviolet radiation, the electromagnetic radiator having at least one fluid inlet and at least one fluid outlet and having at least one treatment chamber;

  • a filtration membrane, the filter membrane disposed adjacent the at least one fluid outlet of the electromagnetic radiator to filter the water irradiated with the pulsed blackbody, deep-UV irradiation, wherein the precipitation of inorganic molecules and organically complexed minerals, partial or complete mineralization of organic molecules and the deactivation or destruction of microbes caused by the oxidizing species reduce the transmembrane pressure.
