Microfiltration membrane is increasingly used in wastewater treatment to produce a higer quality effluent. In this study a microfiltration membrane from Tunisian clay (JM18/SI2) was used to treat cuttlefish effluents generated from the conditioning (freezing and washing) seawater food industry which

The wastewaters generated by the cuttlefish processing contain a high organic (COD of 20,000–35,000 mg.L−1) and inorganic (TDS of 30–40 g.L−1) load. These seafood effluents were subjected to treatment with cellulose acetate (CA) membranes synthesised according to the phase inversion process. Two pre

Supports for microfiltration and ultrafiltration were prepared with Tunisian silty marls. Plastic pastes were prepared from a ceramic powder of silty marls mixed with organic additives and water. The pastes could be extruded to elaborate a porous tubular configuration. The supports fired at 1190°C a
