TLDR
In this paper, the role of chemical and physical interactions in natural organic matter (NOM) fouling of nanofiltration membranes is systematically investigated, and it is demonstrated that the rate of fouling is controlled by an interplay between permeation drag and electrostatic double layer repulsion.

Development of a control system for in-line coagulation in an ultrafiltration process

TL;DR: A control system for the in-line coagulation applied in an ultrafiltration process was developed and it was found that the system performs well; adaptation to changing conditions is achieved adequately and sufficiently fast.

Critical flux concept for microfiltration fouling

TL;DR: The concept of critical flux is introduced in this article to identify the critical flux and the desirability of starting filtration operations at a low flux, where a flux below which a decline of flux with time does not occur.
