The current research was an effort to critically review all approaches used for membrane
fouling control in the membrane bioreactors treating water and wastewater. The first …

Despite more than a decade of worldwide research on membrane fouling in membrane
bioreactors (MBRs), many questions still remain unanswered. In the light of the complexity of …

The optimization of membrane bioreactors (MBRs) involves a critical challenge in structural
design for mitigation of membrane fouling. To address this issue, a three-dimensional …

Membrane bioreactor (MBR) is already a well-developed wastewater treatment process for
both municipal and industrial applications. Nonetheless, membrane fouling remains a …

Extracellular polymeric substances (EPS) are generally negatively charged polymers.
Membrane fouling in membrane bioreactors (MBRs) by EPS is therefore influenced by the …

The importance of the multiphase fluid dynamics for fouling mitigation in MBR systems has
been widely acknowledged with air sparging having been applied commercially for about …

The current membrane bioreactor (MBR) design methods and the popular bio-kinetic
models rely on the assumption that membrane bioreactor is completely mixed, neglecting …

Hydrogen production by dark fermentation (DF) from wastewater, food waste, and agro-
industrial waste combines the advantages to be renewable, sustainable and …

It has previously been shown experimentally that the use of intermittent slug bubbling
through the periodic introduction of large bubbles is an effective strategy to control fouling in …

In this study, we investigated the effect of turbulence on hollow fibre membrane filtration in
terms of membrane fouling performance experimentally. In particular, a special setup with a …
