Journal ArticleDOI
Fouling in membrane bioreactors: An updated review
TL;DR: This review summarized the updated information on foulants composition and characteristics in MBRs, which greatly improves the understanding of fouling mechanisms, and the emerging fouling control strategies are comprehensively reviewed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Roles of quorum sensing in biological wastewater treatment: A critical review.
Naga Raju Maddela,Binbin Sheng,Shasha Yuan,Zhongbo Zhou,Ronald Oswaldo Villamar-Torres,Fangang Meng +5 more
TL;DR: There are still several challenges and knowledge gaps that warrant future targeted research on the ecological niche, abundance, and community of QS- and QQ-bacteria in environmental settings or engineered systems.
Journal ArticleDOI
Characterization of the size-fractionated biomacromolecules: tracking their role and fate in a membrane bioreactor.
Fangang Meng,Zhongbo Zhou,Bing-Jie Ni,Xing Zheng,Guocheng Huang,Xiaoshan Jia,Shiyu Li,Ya Xiong,Matthias Kraume +8 more
TL;DR: Photometric quantification combined with excitation-emission matrix (EEM) fluorescence spectroscopy and nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) measurements were used to characterize BMM in a membrane bioreactor (MBR) from a chemical perspective, indicating that aromatic proteins had a higher fouling propensity than tryptophan proteins though they were of similar size nature.
Journal ArticleDOI
Recent Advances in Membrane Bioreactors: Configuration Development, Pollutant Elimination, and Sludge Reduction
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors reviewed recent advances in Membrane bioreactors (MBRs) by focusing on development of bioreactor configurations, enhanced degradation of pollutants, and sludge reduction.
Journal ArticleDOI
Impact of temperature on feed-flow characteristics and filtration performance of an upflow anaerobic sludge blanket coupled ultrafiltration membrane treating municipal wastewater.
Hale Ozgun,Hale Ozgun,Yu Tao,Mustafa Evren Ersahin,Zhongbo Zhou,Juan B. Gimenez,Henri Spanjers,Jules B. van Lier +7 more
TL;DR: It is concluded that an AnMBR, consisting of a UASB coupled membrane unit, is not found technically feasible for the treatment of municipal wastewater at 15°C, considering the rapid deterioration of the filtration performance.
