Membrane-based water treatment processes have been established as a powerful
approach for clean water production. However, despite the significant advances made in …

This study examines the feasibility of a novel nanofiltration membrane bioreactor (NF-MBR)
followed by reverse osmosis (RO) process for water reclamation at 90% recovery and using …

Reverse osmosis (RO) is an important technique for potable water reuse. However, the
problem of membrane fouling in RO must be addressed for its widespread use. In this study …

Production and disposal of olive-mill wastes represent a problem of environmental
relevance particularly in the Mediterranean countries where they are generated in huge …

To better understand full-scale fouling of nanofiltration and reverse osmosis membranes, it is
common to autopsy a membrane element from a specific location in the full-scale system of …

The effect of the solids retention time (SRT) in a membrane bioreactor (MBR) on the fouling
of the membranes in a subsequent reverse osmosis (RO) process used for wastewater …

In the present chapter, an overview of novel composite membranes for wastewater treatment
is given. Modification of conventional thin-film composites (TFCs), thin-film nanocomposite …

The treatment of wastewater by microalgae cultivation has attracted more and more
attention. However, the way to harvest microalgae cells from the wastewater and the …

The potential for nanofiltration (NF) and reverse osmosis (RO) in secondary effluent
reclamation is noteworthy, but both processes require extensive pre‐treatment to prevent …

In the current work, the diagnosis of a reverse osmosis desalination unit is reported. Over the
two last decades, the studied desalination unit was supplying a 1,200 bed hotel. The feed …
