background: the purpose of this study was to investigate the efficiency of flat sheet membrane bioreactor (fs-mbr) in bod 5 and cod removal of isfahan south municipal wastewater treatment plant. methods: in this study a submerged fs-mbr, with 140 liters volume was fed using microfiltration membrane (mf) during 109 days and hydraulic retention time of 20 hours. findings: the mbr application in m...

Cagaita (Eugenia dysenterica DC) is a Brazilian cerrado fruit with great economic potential and can be consumed in natura or as processed products like juices pulps. The search for lower nutritional sensorial changes led to the non-thermal techniques development where membrane processes stand out. use of immobilized pectinolytic enzymes reduce pulps turbidity viscosity has advantages over free ...

Technology makes the world go round . This statement is not only valid in general, but is also a true representation of the future of membranes in the field of the water treatment. Since their introduction in the late 1950 s, reverse osmosis, nanofiltration, ultrafiltration and microfiltration membranes have been increasingly used for a multiple of different applications in the field of water t...

This paper discusses adsorption of estrone to microfiltration hollow fibre membrane from aqueous phase using estrone as the model compounds. The partitioning of estrone between membrane and aqueous phase at equilibrium state, the concept of membrane retention towards estrone caused by adsorption, adsorption kinetics, and the application potential of membrane adsorption have been assessed throug...

BACKGROUND Endodontic microleakage or microfiltration refers to the percolation of fluids and micro-organisms at the interface of the obturation material and the walls of the root canal system. The aim of this in vitro study was to compare apical microfiltration of Resilon root canal filling by employing three different final irrigant solutions. MATERIAL AND METHODS 128 single-rooted teeth we...

BACKGROUND Despite low incidence, ovarian cancer is the fifth leading cause of cancer deaths and it has the highest mortality rate of all gynecologic malignancies among US women. The mortality rate would be reduced with an early detection marker. The folate receptor alpha (FRalpha) is one logical choice for a biomarker because of its prevalent overexpression in ovarian cancer and its exclusive ...
