tailieunhanh - Doctoral thesis of Philosophy: Characterisation and mitigation of the fouling of ceramic microfiltration membranes caused by algal organic matter released from cyanobacteria

This study was aimed to investigate: the fouling potential of AOM released from M. aeruginosa on the ceramic MF membranes; the major components in the AOM governing the fouling of ceramic MF membranes; the role of the interaction between AOM and aquatic humics on the fouling of ceramic MF membranes; the effect of coagulation feed pre-treatment using various coagulants on the mitigation of AOM fouling; the effect of UV/H2O2 feedwater pre-treatment in mitigating AOM fouling. |
