Mark Wilf Ph. D. and Steven Alt APPLICATION OF LOW FOULING RO MEMBRANE ELEMENTS FOR RECLAMATION OF MUNICIPAL WASTEWATER. Abstract Membrane fouling encountered in reclamation of municipal wastewater
Membrane fouling encountered in reclamation of municipal wastewater represents serious design and operational concern. This is because the municipal effluent, after secondary treatment, contains high concentrations of suspended particles, colloids and high level of biological activity. Application of membrane technology for treatment of municipal wastewater requires very extensive pretreatment ...
متن کاملMembrane Autopsy of a 10 year old hollow fibre membrane from Sydney Olympic Park water reclamation plant
Membrane autopsy was performed for a 10 year old polypropylene (PP) hollow fibre microfiltration membrane from Sydney Olympic Park water reclamation plant. The properties of the membrane were studied using scanning electron microscope (SEM) imaging, contact angle, bubble test, thermogravimetric analysis, tensile strength test and functional group. The old and fouled membrane exhibited a signifi...
متن کاملMembrane Fouling at the Service of UF/MF: Hollow Fiber Membrane Adsorber
Membrane fouling in UF/MF is a problem that has been attracting considerable intellectual and engineering resources over almost 40 years. A lot of efforts, such as high tangential flows, vibration, air sparging and the like, have been taken to minimize its negative impact on the performance of UF/MF filters [1]. All these efforts are associated with increased operating and maintenance costs, an...
متن کاملModification of Hollow Fibre Membranes through Electron Beam Irradiation
The capacity for secondary effluent filtration of hollow fiber polypropylene membranes grafted with several zwitterionic molecules and multi-walled carbon nanotubes was evaluated. In particular, all the modifications result in significant improvement of filtration performances. The anti-fouling properties of the membrane had been increased without damaging the membrane as observed from FTIR, TG...
متن کاملFouling characteristics of a membrane bioreactor and nanofiltration hybrid system for municipal wastewater reclamation.
A laboratory-scale membrane bioreactor (MBR) and nanofiltration (NF) hybrid system has been built to investigate effects of changes in characteristics of effluent organic matter by the MBR on fouling characteristics of the NF membranes. Large amounts of polysaccharide-like substances with small molecular weight and strong fluorescence intensity at the excitation wavelength of 230nm and the emis...
