Membrane bioreactors (MBRs) have been widely used in wastewater treatment and
reclamation. Membrane cleaning is an essential part during the operation of MBRs since …

Natural organic matter (NOM) is a common occurrence in all raw waters (eg, surface waters,
groundwater, and wastewater) that are used for freshwater production. NOM is a leading …

Electro-oxidation processes are promising options for the removal of organic pollutants from
water. The major appeal of these technologies is the possibility to avoid the addition of …

Membrane bioreactors (MBRs) have been actively employed for municipal and industrial
wastewater treatments. So far, membrane fouling and the high cost of membranes are main …

Membranes, as the primary tool in membrane separation techniques, tend to suffer external
deposition of pollutants and microorganisms depending on the nature of the treating …

Although several studies explored the use of nanoparticles as additives in membrane
structures, mixed matrix membranes still suffer from difficulties in synthesis and applications …

The growing attention to forward osmosis (FO) membrane processes from various
disciplines raises the demand for systematic research on FO membrane fouling. This study …

Multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWNTs)/polysulfone (PSf) blend membranes were
prepared by a phase inversion process, using N-methyl-2-pyrrolidinone (NMP) as a solvent …

Anaerobic membrane reactors (AnMBRs) have recently evolved from aerobic MBRs, with
the membrane either external or submerged within the reactor, and can achieve high COD …

More stringent regulations on drinking water quality as well as an increased focus on
emerging contaminants has favored the development of alternative technologies to the …
