What are the Types of MBR Membrane Fouling?
The main culprits of membrane fouling are organic, inorganic, and colloidal. Biofouling, particulate, and chemical fouling will also have a certain impact on the membrane. Each type has its causes and effects. We should develop specific prevention and control strategies where necessary.
KEN Engineering & SPERTA: MBR Collaboration in Focus
SPERTA had the pleasure of welcoming representatives from Ken Engineering Services Company, a renowned consulting company in the wastewater treatment sector from the Philippines.
What are the Factors Affecting Membrane Fouling in MBR?
There are all kinds of factors that can affect fouling in the MBR membrane. The most important factor is water quality. The second is membrane characteristics. Of course, operating conditions, biological activity, chemical action, and physical forces are also important. Each plays a significant role in the fouling process. And we need to consider carefully for optimal system performance.
What Causes A High Negative Pressure In the MBR Membrane?
MBR (Membrane Bioreactor) is a widely used technology for wastewater treatment that combines biological processes and membrane filtration. However, one of the challenges of MBR operation is the development of negative pressure (or vacuum) in the membrane module, which can affect the system’s performance.
