This paper is designed to critically review the recent developments of membrane bio-
technologies for sludge reduction and treatment by covering process fundamentals …

Excess sewage sludge in wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) is regarded the key energy
source for achieving energy neutral WWTPs. The anaerobic digestion process transforms …

Membrane bioreactors (MBRs) are composed of activated sludge processes and membrane
filtration. Because of their unique advantages such as good effluent quality and compact …

This work evaluated the application of a novel ex-situ vacuum-enhanced anaerobic
digestion technology, IntensiCarb TM (IC), which decouples hydraulic retention time (HRT) …

Anaerobic digestion (AD) plays an important role in waste activated sludge (WAS) treatment;
however, conventional AD (CAD) process needs substantial improvements, especially for …

Anaerobic membrane bioreactors (AnMBRs) have become a new mature technology and
entered into the wastewater market, but there are several challenges to be addressed for …

Energy-rich sludge can be obtained from primary clarifiers preceding biological reactors.
Alternatively, the incoming wastewater can be sent to a very-high-loaded activated sludge …

An anaerobic dynamic membrane digester (ADMD) was developed to digest waste sludge,
and pyrosequencing was used to analyze the variations of the bacterial and archaeal …

This study compared the performance of a pilot-scale anaerobic membrane bioreactor
(AnMBR) and a conventional anaerobic digester (AD) when treating raw mixed sludges from …

This article presents the results of pilot scale studies that examined the use of negative and
neutral charged tubular and hollow fiber (HF) anaerobic membrane bio‐reactors (AnMBR) …
