چکیده
This paper compares the difference in membrane flux between direct membrane filtration and coagulation-membrane filtration, and investigates the removal of organics of different molecular weight by coagulation-membrane filtration process, in turn studies the fouling removal mechanism of coagulation process. The results indicate that for COD removal from raw water, coagulation is effective mainly on the organics of molecular weight higher than 10 kDa, and membrane filtration is effective mainly on the organics of molecular weight between 30 kDa and 100 kDa and higher than 100 kDa; as for UV254 removal, coagulation is effective mainly on the organics of high molecular weight, and membrane filtration is effective mainly on the organics of molecular weight between 1 kDa and 100 kDa. Therefore, it proves that the high molecular organics are mainly responsible for the membrane fouling.

The characteristics of dissolved organic matter (DOM) and bromide ion concentration have a significant influence on the formation of disinfection by-products (DBPs). In order to identify the main DBP precursors, DOM was divided into five fractions based on molecular weight (MW), trihalomethane formation potential and haloacetic acid formation potential were determined for fractions, and the cha...

A membrane filtration system was used to remove organic compounds, suspended solids, colour and turbidity from anaerobically treated dairy wastewater. Direct microfiltration (MF), ultrafiltration (UF), MF-UF and a combination of UF with coagulation using two conventional coagulants were investigated. The installation with ceramic membranes was operated at a pressure of 0.15 MPa (MF) and 0.3 MPa...
متن کاملCost factors and chemical pretreatment effects in the membrane filtration of waters containing natural organic matter.
This paper compares the membrane processes available for water treatment. Membranes have the advantage of currently decreasing capital cost, a relatively small footprint compared to conventional treatment, generally a reduction in chemicals usage and comparably low maintenance requirements. Three membrane processes applicable to water treatment, micro- (MF), ultra- (UF), and nanofiltration (NF)...
