Topic:
Wastewater treatment
Membrane bioreactors (MBRs) have been widely used for wastewater treatment, presenting however a major disadvantage, the membrane fouling problem. The sludge microorganisms produce soluble microbial products (SMP) and extracellular polymeric substances (EPS) that lead to a formation of a sticky...Read more
