The next generation of the self-forming dynamic membrane, referred to in this study as the “Living Membrane (LM)”, is a new patented technology based on an encapsulated biological layer that self-forms on a designed coarse-pore size support material during wastewater treatment and acts as a natural membrane filter. Integrating electrochemical processes with wastewater treatment using… Continue reading Electro living membrane bioreactor for highly efficient wastewater treatment and fouling mitigation: Influence of current density on process performances
Membrane bioreactor (MBR) is an alternative to the traditional-activated sludge processes. It is considered as one of the most significant innovations for wastewater treatment since it is much more reliable and efficient. However, membrane fouling and its consequences on plant maintenance and energy consumption limit the application of this promising technology. Recent studies have attempted… Continue reading Advanced Wastewater Treatment by Electro Self-Forming Dynamic Membrane Bioreactors: Pilot-Scale Application
The continuous release of emerging contaminants (ECs) in the aquatic environment, as a result of the inadequate removal by conventional treatment methods, has prompted research to explore viable solutions to this rising global problem. One promising alternative is the use of electrochemical processes since they represent a simple and highly efficient technology with less footprint.… Continue reading Removal of pharmaceuticals from wastewater by intermittent electrocoagulation
