The membrane biofilm reactor (MBfR), which is based on the counter diffusion of the
electron donors and acceptors into the biofilm, represents a novel technology for wastewater …

Aquaponics combines the advantages of aquaculture and hydroponics as it suits the urban
environment where a lack of agricultural land and water resources is observed. It is an …

Membrane aerated biofilm bioreactors (MABRs), a relatively new innovation in biological
wastewater treatment technology, have received much attention in recent years. In the past …

This work aims to optimize the process of heterotrophic nitrification-aerobic denitrification
(HN-AD) in the membrane-aerated biofilm reactor (MABR) by way of increasing the …

One of the main energy consumptions in wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) is due to the
oxygenation of aerobic biological processes. In order to approach to an energy self-sufficient …

This study is the first to report the start-up and the nitrogen removal performance of a single-
stage PN/A/PD MABR without a heating system. It was found that the lumen pressure …

Growing demand for efficient wastewater treatment systems is spurring on the development
of new technologies. Biofilm‐based reactors can be used for the treatment of a variety of …

In membrane aerated biofilm reactors (MABR), simultaneous nitrification and denitrification
(SND) are achieved by complicated biological reactions and mass transport in and between …

Membrane aerated biofilm reactors (MABR) are emerging to be a popular alternative for
intensifying wastewater treatment. However, the performance of the technology has not yet …

Biofilms drive crucial ecosystem processes in rivers. This study provided the basis for overall
quantitative calculations about the contribution of biofilms to the nitrogen cycle. At the early …
