Research Papers by B. Jefferson

The development of membrane technology has reached a state whereby operational optimisation is becoming the major issue to both researchers and industrial operators. A key focus is towards sustainable operation where fouling is limited and cleaning is greatly reduced. The paper presents an example o

Extracellular polymeric substances (EPS) are viewed as major fouling components during filtration of biological feeds in industry. However, very few studies investigated the fouling mechanisms of polysaccharides, one major group of macromolecules in EPS. In this work, dead end unstirred filtration o
