TL;DR: The fouling behaviour, fouling factors and fouling control strategies were discussed, and recent developments in membrane materials including low-cost filters, membrane modification and dynamic membranes were reviewed.

TL;DR: This review summarized the updated information on foulants composition and characteristics in MBRs, which greatly improves the understanding of fouling mechanisms, and the emerging fouling control strategies are comprehensively reviewed.

TL;DR: In this article, the physicochemical and biological characteristics of sludge in submerged membrane bioreactors at various sludge retention times (SRT) and their effect on microfiltration and membrane fouling were investigated.

TL;DR: In this article, the effect of dilution rate (D) on the production of hydrogen and metabolites in hydrogen fermentation was investigated, and the results showed that D control led environmental conditions to favor hydrogen production, and that the fermentation efficiency was improved by the enhanced degradation of slowly degradable matters.

TL;DR: The amount of hydrogen production from the thermophilic acidogenic culture was much higher than that from the mesophilic culture at all tested pH because of the methane free condition and negligible propionate production, and increase of VS concentrations from 3 to 10 g VS l −1 resulted in the increase of quantity and quality of hydrogenProduction.
