Conventional drinking water treatment processes have faced several obstacles that are
severely affected by water pollution and shortage, which makes it difficult to produce potable …

Coagulation/flocculation/dissolved air flotation (CF-DAF) has garnered increased interest in
recent years as pretreatment for low-pressure membranes (LPM) due to its ability to treat …

Surface metallization of membrane via electroless plating for improvement of permeation
flux and anti-fouling performance has attracted extensive attentions in recent years …

The effects of pre-ozonation on ultrafiltration (UF) membrane fouling caused by different
natural organic matter (NOM) fractions were investigated. Three typical organic model …

Although low-pressure membranes (microfiltration (MF) or ultrafiltration (UF)) have become
viable options for drinking water treatment, problems caused by membrane fouling must still …

EfOM has been regarded as a major organic foulant resulting in UF membrane fouling in
wastewater reclamation. To investigate fouling potential of different EfOM fractions, the …

While electroless nickel plating is considered as a promising candidate for fabrication of
metallized polymer composite membranes with high performance, it suffers from problems of …

This research examines the effect of various NOM fractions on ceramic and polymeric UF
membranes performance in terms of fouling and cleaning. Fouling experiments were …

Due to the lack of robust ways to quantify aggregations, fouling of two-foulant aggregations
is poorly understood. This work systematically reports the ultrafiltration membrane fouling by …

Until recently, membrane fouling in anaerobic membrane bioreactors (AnMBRs) was
generally understood based on and by extrapolating from well-studied aerobic membrane …
