Laboratory bench-scale experiments were conducted to elucidate the effect of ozone on the microfiltration membrane fouling through reaction with particulates in the secondary effluent from BeiXiaoHe WWTP. Membrane resistance (R) was recorded during the filtration course of source water and that afte

Efficient and stable atrazine removal could be realized after a start-up period in a membrane bioreactor (MBR) bioaugmented with genetically engineered microorganism (GEM) and the removal efficiency was above 90%. The start-up period was the key step of MBR bioaugmented with GEM and determined by op

Ultrasound was applied to the control of membrane fouling development on-line in an anaerobic membrane bioreactor (AMBR). Experimental results showed that the higher the sludge concentration, the longer the ultrasonic irradiation time should be for membrane fouling control. When the AMBR operated un

Changes of properties (specific filtration resistance, floc size, supernatant TOC and zeta potential) of activated sludge mixed liquor after monomeric and polymeric coagulants [Al2(SO4)3, FeCl3, PAC (polymeric aluminum chloride) and PFS (polymeric ferric sulfate)] addition were studied in this paper

A novel configuration of a photocatalytic slurry reactor using low-pressure mercury lamps coupled with membrane filtration was proposed, and treatment of polluted river water with a pilot plant of this system was investigated. Both + COD and NH4 -N in the river water were simultaneously removed. Und
