With the upgrade of wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) to meet more stringent discharge
limits for nutrients, dissolved organic nitrogen (DON) is present at an increasing percentage …

Membrane fouling (especially biofouling) as a critical issue during membrane reactor (MBR)
operation has attracted much attention in recent years. Although previous review papers …

The immigration of microbial communities in a synergistic partial denitrification/anammox
(SPDA) system was investigated in a moving bed biofilm reactor (MBBR) inoculated with …

This work synthesized catalytic CuFe 2 O 4 tailored ceramic membrane (CuFeCM), and
systematically investigated the intercorrelated oxidation-filtration mechanism of …

The goal of this study is to help filling the research gaps linked to the on-line application of
fluorescence spectroscopy in wastewater treatment and data processing tools suitable for …

This study focused on the effects of membrane pore size and surface hydrophobicity on
ultrafiltration (UF) membrane fouling caused by extracellular organic matter (EOM) from …

Algal extracellular organic matter (EOM) released from Microcystis aeruginosa can cause
severe membrane fouling during algae-laden water treatment. To solve this problem, three …

Soluble microbial products (SMP) in the wastewater treatment process not only cause
fouling to the membrane, but also generate disinfection by-products (DBP) in the effluent …

While molecular weight distribution (MWD) is one of the most important properties of soluble
microbial products (SMPs), mechanisms underlying effects of MWD of SMPs on membrane …

Effluents from biological processes contain a wide range of complex organic compounds,
including soluble microbial products (SMP) and extracellular polymers (ECP), released …
