Journal ArticleDOI
Characterisation of algal organic matter produced by bloom-forming marine and freshwater algae.
Loreen O. Villacorte,Yuli Ekowati,Thomas R. Neu,J.M. Kleijn,Harvey Winters,Gary L. Amy,Jan C. Schippers,Maria D. Kennedy +7 more
TL;DR: The composition as well as the physico-chemical characteristics of AOM will likely dictate the severity of fouling in membrane systems during algal blooms.
Journal ArticleDOI
Ultrafiltration behaviors of alginate blocks at various calcium concentrations.
TL;DR: Deep insights are offered into the development of membrane fouling by different alginate blocks in the presence of calcium ion, and it is suggested that TEP formed from alginates played a very significant role in the fouling development.
Patent
Prevention of biofouling of reverse osmosis membranes
TL;DR: An improved process for killing and inhibiting growth and reproduction (aftergrowth) of microorganisms comprising adding sufficient chloramine to kill the microorganisms without oxidizing high molecular weight organics into lower molecular weight ones, which are easily assimilated as discussed by the authors.
Journal ArticleDOI
Quorum quenching bacteria can be used to inhibit the biofouling of reverse osmosis membranes.
Hyun-Suk Oh,Chuan Hao Tan,Jiun Hui Low,Miles Rzechowicz,Muhammad Faisal Siddiqui,Harvey Winters,Harvey Winters,Staffan Kjelleberg,Staffan Kjelleberg,Anthony G. Fane,Scott A. Rice,Scott A. Rice +11 more
TL;DR: The results demonstrate the proof-of-principle that QQ can be applied to control biofouling of RO membranes and may be applicable for use in full-scale plants.
Journal ArticleDOI
Characterisation of transparent exopolymer particles (TEP) produced during algal bloom: a membrane treatment perspective
Loreen O. Villacorte,Yuli Ekowati,Harvey Winters,Gary L. Amy,Jan C. Schippers,Maria D. Kennedy +5 more
TL;DR: Organic substances produced by both algal species were dominated by biopolymeric substances such as polysaccharides and proteins while the remaining fraction comprises of low molecular weight refractory (humic-like) and/or biogenic organic ...
