Reduction of high BOD and nutrient loading from fruit and vegetable wastewater with membrane bioreactor (MBR)
Membrane bioreactors (MBR) is used to reduce high BOD organics from industrial food waste streams for discharge to a municipal sewer system. Organic reduction is monitored using COD, BOD, TSS, […]
Using Thin Film Nanocomposite (TFN) Brackish Water Reverse Osmosis Membranes to Provide Greater Confidence for NDMA Removal
A thin film nanocomposite reverse osmosis membrane has reported improved rejection for nitrosodimethylamine (NDMA) versus conventional thin film composite polyamide reverse osmosis. Lab tests indicate NDMA was removed at rates […]
A Nanofiltration of Membrane for the Removal of Color and Disinfection byproducts
Inverness CA has a potable water issue with high levels of color and DBP from a surface water source. NF was able to reduce the color and DBP at low […]
A Surfactant-Based Novel Draw Solution for Forward Osmosis Process
Research a new FO draw solution of EDTA-2Na combined with a nonionic surfactant (Triton X-100) to reach zero salt reverse sault diffusion. Assess the efficiency of FO performance with various […]
Feasible and Cost Effective MBR Applications – An Engineers Experience
This paper presents three projects that have been implemented in Ohio with the MBR activated sludge technology. It includes one plant that is the largest constructed in North American and […]
Membrane System Design Concepts
Presents an overview of the system design considerations around membrane plants. The perspective presetned is a full system view of a membrane plant.
Impact of Changing Water Quality on RO Design and Operation
Presents how RO technology is applied in different types of feedwaters by modifying the arrangement of commercially available membranes within the RO system.
Scaled Processing of BRN Membranes
Development of NMP CA for better wetting properties on nanofiltration membrane
Considerations for the Design of Membrane Filtration Chemical Cleaning Systems
Minimizing the irreversible fouling of low pressure membranes requires cleaning regimes that typically consist of three different types of membrane cleans: Chemically Enhanced Backwash (CEB), Maintenance Cleans (MC), and ? […]
RO or OtheR? Is RO the ?Best? available technology for Groundwater Treatment?
This presentation provides an assessment of treatment technologies addressing inorganic contaminants and is based on several case studies completed in California, Utah, and Arizona. Six strategies for economical and effective […]
