Adsorption-membrane hybrid systems present an interesting alternative for the treatment of contaminated waters. This study aims to understand the role of NOM on membrane performance and on removal of pharmaceuticals during the combined application of powdered activated carbon and submerged membranes

Fouling layer formation in membrane processes and the role of bacteria in it were investigated using rRNA-targeted fluorescently labelled oligonucleotides. In a laboratory-scale flat-channel test unit, nano- and ultrafiltration of an oligotrophic reservoir water were performed. The bacterial composi
