Anaerobic membrane bioreactor (AnMBR) which integrates membrane filtration with
anaerobic process, achieves high COD removal (∼ 95%) with short hydraulic retention time …

A biofilm is an assemblage of microbial cells attached to a surface and encapsulated in an
extracellular polymeric substance (EPS) matrix. The formation of a biofilm is one of the …

Dynamic membrane (DM) technology has attracted much attention due to low operating
pressure and easy fouling layer removal in wastewater treatment, but correlationship …

Biofouling is the undesired deposition and growth of microorganisms on surfaces, forming
biofilms. The definition is subjective and operational: not every biofilm causes biofouling …

Quorum sensing (QS) and quorum quenching (QQ) are increasingly reported in biological
wastewater treatment processes because of their inherent roles in biofilm development …

Biofilms adhering to surfaces have severe impacts on both public health and industry.
Environmentally friendly strategies for combating biofilms are needed due to the biosafety …

Membrane separation technologies have been widely used for water purification. However,

The microbial co-cultures or consortia are a natural set of microorganisms formed from
different species or the same species but different strains, in which members can interact …

The potential to operate energy efficient and less expensive production methods are
important in biohydrogen production. Biological hydrogen production is often constrained by …

Bacterial quorum quenching (QQ) is an effective strategy for controlling biofouling in
