Wastewater Treatment and Membrane Fouling Control Using an Algae-Activated Sludge Self-Forming Dynamic Membrane Bioreactor (AAS-SFDMBR)
Corpuz M., Castrogiovanni F., Senatore V., Borea L., Buonerba A., Zarra T., Belgiorno V., Hasan S., Ballesteros F., Napodano P., (Corresponding) Naddeo V.
Topic:
Wastewater treatment
Self-forming dynamic membrane bioreactors (SFDMBRs), which utilize formed biomass layer and large pore-size mesh/ support materials instead of conventional membrane materials, have been studied for wastewater treatment applications. The consortium of algae and activated sludge bacteria has also...Read more
Application of quorum quenching to improve performance of membrane bioreactors: A comprehensive mini-review
(Corresponding) Banti D., Kampouris I., Yiangou M., (Corresponding) Samaras P.
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
