Journal ArticleDOI
PDMS/PVDF hybrid electrospun membrane with superhydrophobic property and drop impact dynamics for dyeing wastewater treatment using membrane distillation
Alicia Kyoungjin An,Jiaxin Guo,Eui-Jong Lee,Sanghyun Jeong,Yanhua Zhao,Zuankai Wang,TorOve Leiknes +6 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a poly(vinylidene fluoride-cohexafluoropropene) (PVDF-HFP) electrospun (E-PH) membrane was fabricated by hybridizing polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) polymeric microspheres with superhydrophobicity onto the E-PH membrane via electrospinning.
Journal ArticleDOI
Life cycle cost of a hybrid forward osmosis - low pressure reverse osmosis system for seawater desalination and wastewater recovery
R. Valladares Linares,Zhenyu Li,Victor Yangali-Quintanilla,Noreddine Ghaffour,Gary L. Amy,TorOve Leiknes,Johannes S. Vrouwenvelder +6 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a detailed economic analysis on capital and operational expenses (CAPEX and OPEX) for: i) a hybrid forward osmosis - low-pressure reverse Osmosis (FO-LPRO) process, ii) a conventional seawater reverse-osmosis-advanced oxidation process (MBR-RO-AOP) for wastewater treatment and reuse, is presented.
Journal ArticleDOI
The effect of coagulation with MF/UF membrane filtration for the removal of virus in drinking water
L Fiksdal,TorOve Leiknes +1 more
TL;DR: The low numbers of infective virus detected in permeates show that pre-coagulation/flocculation in combination with both loose UF and MF membrane filtration was an effective hygienic barrier against MS2 virus.
Journal ArticleDOI
High flux and antifouling properties of negatively charged membrane for dyeing wastewater treatment by membrane distillation.
Alicia Kyoungjin An,Jiaxin Guo,Sanghyun Jeong,Eui-Jong Lee,S. Assiyeh Alizadeh Tabatabai,TorOve Leiknes +5 more
TL;DR: In this article, the applicability of membrane distillation (MD) to treat dyeing wastewater discharged by the textile industry was investigated, and two types of hydrophobic membranes made of polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) and polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) were used.
Journal ArticleDOI
The development of a biofilm membrane bioreactor
TorOve Leiknes,Hallvard Ødegaard +1 more
TL;DR: Development of a biofilm-MBR has been investigated combining a moving-bed-biofilm reactor with a submerged membrane biomass separation reactor, and sustainable operation was found to correlate to the fate of the submicron particle size fraction throughout the treatment process.
