Natural organic matter (NOM) is a common occurrence in all raw waters (eg, surface waters,
groundwater, and wastewater) that are used for freshwater production. NOM is a leading …

Optical coherence tomography (OCT) has emerged as a powerful noninvasive technique for
monitoring fouling in membrane filtration systems for water and wastewater treatment and …

The treatment of textile dye solution is considered one of the most challenging wastewater
treatments, representing a major concern for the ecosystem. This study investigates the …

In this study, the membrane autopsy was performed on a full-scale seawater reverse
osmosis (SWRO) desalination plant located on the Red Sea. Several techniques were …

Gravity-driven membrane bioreactors (GD-MBR) have been proposed as a sustainable
