TL;DR: Here, SMP loading rate was found to have the greatest effect on SMP elimination and thus on concentration in the MBR, and the increased fouling rates at lower temperatures might therefore partly be explained by this increased rejection.

TL;DR: Two similar membrane bioreactors of 2 m3 each were operated in parallel over two years under the same operational conditions, fed with the same municipal wastewater, and exhibited different fouling rates and decreases in permeability.

TL;DR: In this paper, the effectiveness of various chemicals on filterability and fouling reduction in MBR mixed liquors was evaluated using batch shaker tests to determine the optimum dosages in terms of SMP removal and the required dosage.

TL;DR: In this article, the influence of discontinuous excess sludge withdrawal often applied in small decentralised plants and resulting unsteady loading rates on EPS formation and filtration resistance was investigated.

TL;DR: It was shown that even without dosing of an external carbon source, denitrification rates much above endogenous rates could be obtained in post-denitrification systems, and the anaerobic reactor located ahead of the process had a positive impact on the DNR.
