The membrane bioreactor (MBR) can no longer be considered as a novel process. This
reliable and efficient technology has become a legitimate alternative to conventional …

Over the last 10 years, numerous membrane filtration data have been viewed through the
lens of the concept of critical flux. This concept, used in a number of different ways often …

This review article presents a comprehensive literature survey over the last two decades on
the evaluation of production processes of succinic acid (SA) to further direct the research …

A combined cross-flow microfiltration (MF) and nanofiltration-assisted crystallization
technique was successfully employed as a series of purification steps for the production of …

In the last decades, the ultrafiltration of whey has grown in importance as a “green”
technique. However, since fouling is an important drawback, researchers focused on its …

Nanofiltration was investigated for usability in a specific lactic acid production process based
on conventional and bipolar electrodialysis operations. Industrial fluids, corresponding to …

Experimental devices for stimulating productivity of lactic acid fermentation were installed
and an electromagnetic flow-meter and a pneumatic diaphragm pump were employed to …

l (+) lactic acid was directly produced in a three-stage membrane-integrated hybrid reactor
system starting with a cheap, renewable and clean carbon source. Provision of flat sheet …
