TL;DR: In this paper, an experimental study has been performed using hollow fibers (pore size 0.1 μm) immersed in an aerated tank for treating synthetic wastewater representative of dairy effluent.

TL;DR: The results of two pilot studies of an immersed membrane activated sludge process are presented in this paper, which involves coupling a bioreactor with effluent separation by microfiltration hollow fibres immersed directly in the bioreactors.

TL;DR: In this article, the results obtained using hollow fiber microfiltration membranes directly immersed in the bioreactor were obtained using short-term and long-erm experiments successively, with shortterm experiments, which were the limit of steady operation, were identified.

TL;DR: An immersed membrane activated sludge process has been evaluated at pilot scale by Anjou Recherche as mentioned in this paper, which represents a new generation of hybrid techniques, which aims at coupling biological treatment and membrane filtration functions, in a configuration adapted to the treatment of municipal wastewater.

TL;DR: In this article, shell-less hollow fiber membranes are directly immersed in the reaction vessel receiving the water to be purified and operated under slight negative pressure (whereas they are traditionally housed in pressure vessels in conventional microfiltration and ultra-filtration systems).
