Journal ArticleDOI
Osmotic versus conventional membrane bioreactors integrated with reverse osmosis for water reuse: Biological stability, membrane fouling, and contaminant removal
Wenhai Luo,Hop V. Phan,Ming Xie,Faisal I. Hai,William E. Price,Menachem Elimelech,Long D. Nghiem +6 more
TL;DR: Compared to conventional MBR- RO, the FO process effectively prevented foulants from permeating into the draw solution, thereby significantly reducing fouling of the downstream RO membrane in OMBR-RO operation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Simultaneous nitrification/denitrification and trace organic contaminant (TrOC) removal by an anoxic-aerobic membrane bioreactor (MBR).
Hop V. Phan,Faisal I. Hai,Jinguo Kang,Hoa Khanh Dam,Ren Zhang,William E. Price,Andreas Broeckmann,Long D. Nghiem +7 more
TL;DR: A major role of the aerobic MBR for TOC, TN, and TrOC removal was observed and low oxidation reduction potential regimes were conducive to moderate to high removal of nine TrOCs.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effects of salinity build-up on the performance and bacterial community structure of a membrane bioreactor.
Wenhai Luo,Hop V. Phan,Faisal I. Hai,William E. Price,Wenshan Guo,Hao H. Ngo,Kazuo Yamamoto,Long D. Nghiem +7 more
TL;DR: The results suggest that salinity build-up during HR-MBR operation could be managed by allowing for the proliferation of halotolerant/halophilic bacteria.
Journal ArticleDOI
Bacterial community dynamics in an anoxic-aerobic membrane bioreactor – Impact on nutrient and trace organic contaminant removal
TL;DR: The bacterial communities in different redox regimes of an anoxic-aerobic MBR under different operating conditions was investigated using pyrosequencing, indicating IR as a key driving force shaping the bacterial communities that are responsible for the core function in the system.
Journal ArticleDOI
An Osmotic Membrane Bioreactor–Membrane Distillation System for Simultaneous Wastewater Reuse and Seawater Desalination: Performance and Implications
Wenhai Luo,Wenhai Luo,Hop V. Phan,Guo Xue Li,Faisal I. Hai,William E. Price,Menachem Elimelech,Long D. Nghiem +7 more
TL;DR: By coupling biological treatment and two high rejection membrane processes, the OMBR-MD hybrid system could effectively remove all 30 trace organic contaminants of significant concern investigated here and produce high quality water.
