Wastewater reuse in Europe
D. Bixio,Chris Thoeye,J. de Koning,Darko Joksimovic,Dragan Savic,Thomas Wintgens,Thomas Melin +6 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present a survey of water reuse practices in Europe and set out the map of the water reclamation technologies and reuse applications, based on a conventional literature survey, on the preliminary evaluation of an in-depth survey of a large number of European water reuse projects and on the findings of a dedicated international workshop.

Chemical and physical aspects of cleaning of organic-fouled reverse osmosis membranes
TL;DR: In this article, the role of chemical and physical interactions in cleaning of organic-fouled reverse osmosis (RO) membranes is systematically investigated, and the results showed that a metal chelating agent (EDTA) and an anionic surfactant (SDS) were able to clean the fouled RO membrane effectively by optimizing chemical (dose and pH) and physical (time, crossflow velocity, and temperature) conditions during cleaning.

Protein (BSA) fouling of reverse osmosis membranes : Implications for wastewater reclamation
Wui Seng Ang,Menachem Elimelech +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the effects of feed solution chemistry (calcium concentration, ionic strength, and solution pH) and feed foulant composition on fouling of RO membranes by bovine serum albumin (BSA) were investigated.

Membrane contactor processes for wastewater reclamation in space Part I. Direct osmotic concentration as pretreatment for reverse osmosis
TL;DR: In this paper, an innovative system that combines three different membrane processes for reclamation and reuse of wastewater in future space missions was evaluated, and the conditions for minimum energy consumption were determined and used in estimating the specific energy cost of treating the wastewater generated in space.
