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.

Comparative study of humic acid removal and floc characteristics by electrocoagulation and chemical coagulation

TL;DR: Investigating the efficiency of electrocoagulation for the removal of humic acid from contaminated waters found that iron flocs were larger, denser, and more geometrical in shape compared to aluminumFlocs, yet alum performed better at the highest experimented concentration.

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.
