Journal ArticleDOI
Dewatering in biological wastewater treatment: A review.
TL;DR: The best dewaterability is observed for activated sludge that contains strong, compact flocs without single cells and dissolved extracellular polymeric substances.
Journal ArticleDOI
Modeling cake buildup under TMP-step filtration in a membrane bioreactor: cake compressibility is significant.
Thomas Vistisen Bugge,Mads Koustrup Jørgensen,Morten Lykkegaard Christensen,Kristian Keiding +3 more
TL;DR: This study examines the properties of the cake layer, modeling the cake buildup and specific cake resistance (α), including compressibility, in terms of pressure-dependent α and demonstrated that compressibility should be considered when describing cake fouling in MBRs.
Journal ArticleDOI
Membrane filtration device for studying compression of fouling layers in membrane bioreactors
Mads Koustrup Jørgensen,Thomas Vistisen Bugge,Poul Larsen,Per Halkjær Nielsen,Morten Lykkegaard Christensen +4 more
TL;DR: Detailed information on the underlying mechanisms of the difference in fouling propensity were obtained, as conventional activated sludge showed slower fouling formation, lower specific resistance and lower compressibility of fouling layers, which is explained by a higher degree of flocculation.
Journal ArticleDOI
A review of membrane crystallization, forward osmosis and membrane capacitive deionization for liquid mining
Aamer Ali,Cejna Anna Quist-Jensen,Mads Koustrup Jørgensen,Anna Siekierka,Anna Siekierka,Morten Lykkegaard Christensen,Marek Bryjak,Claus Hélix-Nielsen,Enrico Drioli,Enrico Drioli +9 more
TL;DR: In this article, a critical review of the current trends in applying MCr, FO and MCDI for recovery of metals, minerals and nutrients from various streams is presented and compared in terms of types of fouling, energy consumption, overall composition of suitable feed solutions, feasible concentration ranges and potential to recover the targeted metal from a multi-component solution.
Journal ArticleDOI
Unified understanding of physico-chemical properties of activated sludge and fouling propensity
Mads Koustrup Jørgensen,Marta Nierychlo,Asbjørn Haaning Nielsen,Poul Larsen,Morten Lykkegaard Christensen,Per Halkjær Nielsen +5 more
TL;DR: A conceptual model was proposed to describe the interplay between sludge composition, characteristics, and filtration properties and high amounts of carbohydrates in both total and extracted EPS resulted in more pronounced fouling, which may be explained by carbohydrates forming poorer flocs than humic substances and proteins.
