Characterization of protein-fouled membranes is crucial to understand the fouling
mechanisms and optimization of fouling control and cleaning. This paper reviews current …

Water recycling via treatment from industrial and/or municipal waste sources is one of the
key strategies for resolving water shortages worldwide. Polymer membranes are effective at …

Membrane fouling caused by macromolecular species such as proteins remains a major
problem, especially in ultrafiltration processes. In this work, we developed a method of direct …

Protein fouling is a critical factor governing membrane performance in various filtration
processes. In this study, we report a new surface modification technique to modify 0.22 μm …

Publisher Summary This chapter discusses the basic adsorption isotherms, presents the
fundamental theories of adsorption, and describes the experimental techniques for the …

De eenzame auteursnaam die op de voorzijde van dit proefschrift prijkt, suggereert ten

Cross-flow microfiltration (MF) was investigated as a viable option for separating colloidal
particles from electroplating wastewater. Filtration experiments with Cr (OH) 3 suspension as …

Despite the advantages of membrane filtration over conventional processes for the
separation, concentration, and/or purification of biological macromolecules, widespread use …

This article proposes two new concepts, adsorption and rejection accumulation and the
membrane fouling efficiency per unit accumulation to quantitatively characterize the …
