Quorum sensing (QS) is a mechanism that enables microbial communication. It is based on
the constant secretion of signaling molecules to the environment. The main role of QS is the …

Anaerobic membrane bioreactor (AnMBR) holds great promise to treat a broad range of
waste streams for concurrent pollutants transformation and biofuels harvest while producing …

Biofilms give rise to a range of issues, spanning from harboring pathogens to accelerating
microbial-induced corrosion in pressurized water systems. Introducing germicidal UV-C (200 …

Quorum sensing (QS) plays an important role in microbial aggregation control. Recently, the

Membrane fouling is a significant obstacle to applying membrane bioreactors (MBRs) for
wastewater treatment. Here we report the impact of sunlight irradiation on membrane …

Membrane bioreactors (MBRs) play a crucial role in wastewater treatment, but they face
considerable challenges due to fouling. To tackle this issue, innovative strategies are …

Quorum sensing (QS), a type of bacterial cell–cell communication, produces autoinducers
which help in biofilm formation in response to cell population density. In this review, biofilm …

The membrane antifouling and shifts of microbial communities of long-term electric field
applied in MBR (EMBR) for treating phenol wastewater was systematically investigated. The …

A ceramic membrane reactor (CMR) coupled with an up-flow anaerobic sludge blanket
(UASB) reactor has been investigated to treat real textile wastewater, focusing on the …

Physicochemical technologies to control biofouling in the membrane bioreactors (MBRs)
have shown to be incapable of removing all biofouling layers. Novel biological approaches …
