Natural organic matter (NOM) constitutes the terrestrial and aquatic sources of organic plant
like material found in water bodies. As of recently, an ever-increasing amount of effort is …

A bench-scale study was undertaken to evaluate iron chemical coagulation and
electrocoagulation pretreatment for dead-end, constant pressure microfiltration of surface …

The effect of coagulation on microfiltration and ultrafiltration performance was evaluated in a
recent laboratory study. The primary variables used in the study included source water, type …

This study evaluates the factors affecting pretreatment conditions for hybrid UF membrane
processes for reuse of secondary effluent from the sewage treatment plant. The …

The article is the work of the AWWA Membrane Technology Research Committee. It was
prepared by Isabel C. Escobar (chair), Eric M. Hoek, Christopher J. Gabelich, Francis A …

In the present study, three different real wastewaters (containing high boron concentration
between 2500–6200 mg/lt) were treated using the vacuum assisted air gap membrane …

Air‐sparging and coagulation/flocculation were compared as fouling control strategies
during ultrafiltration of surface waters. Fouling was assessed following coagulation (0.5 and …

Herein, we demonstrate the ability of magnetic titanium dioxide (Fe 3 O 4@ SiO 2@ TiO 2) to
rapidly remove natural organic matter (NOM) from water by adsorption and thereafter be …

Coagulation as pre-treatment to ultrafiltration (UF) was optimized for the removal of
biopolymers, ie, a primary UF foulant, for three different natural water matrices. The impact of …

In this study, pretreatment of organic matters with MIEX® was evaluated using bench-scale
experimental procedures on three organic matters to determine its effect on subsequent UF …
