Membrane Bioreactor (MBR) Technology for Wastewater Treatment and Reclamation: Membrane Fouling

TL;DR: The integration of aerobic granulation with MBRs, which targets biofoulants and organic foulants, shows outstanding filtration performance and a significant reduction in fouling rate, as well as excellent nutrients removal, but further research is needed on the enhancement of long-term granule integrity.

Biofouling and control approaches in membrane bioreactors

TL;DR: This work attempts to give a more comprehensive and elaborate explanation of biofilm formation, biofouling factors and control approaches by addressing current achievements and suggests to a better way in controlling bioFouling by developing new integrated MBR systems, novel flocculants and biomass carriers.

Comparison between moving bed-membrane bioreactor (MB-MBR) and membrane bioreactor (MBR) systems: Influence of wastewater salinity variation

TL;DR: Two pilot plant systems for the treatment of wastewater subject to a gradual increase of salinity showed very high efficiency in terms of carbon and ammonium removal and the gradual salinity increase led to a good acclimation of the biomass, as confirmed by the respirometric tests.
