The Causes and Cleaning Strategies for Microfiltration Membranes Fouled by Iron
Membrane fouling caused by iron or the combination of iron and organic matter is very common operating issue in membrane plants. Iron species in natural water can be dissolved, via […]
High Packing Density Modules for High Solids Applications
The early generation of reinforced hollow fiber submerged membrane systems for drinking water treatment are coming due for membrane replacement. In many cases the Membrane Filtration Guidance Manual practices for […]
Hollow Fiber UF Membranes Oil Resistance in Wastewater Streams at the Innovative GRIP Pilot Site
Hollow fiber Ultrafiltration / Microfiltration (UF/MF) membranes have historically been challenged to treat feed waters with even low concentrations of oil and grease. Piloting at the GRIP proof-pilot site in […]
Applying Flat Sheet Ceramic Membranes in Drinking Water Applications, Ground Water and Surface Water Sources
Meiden?s ceramic flat-sheet membrane (CFM) was developed about a decade ago. It is a flatsheet membrane made from alumina. It has a nominal pore size of 0.1 ?m. Fluid is […]
Finding and Fine-Tuning the Right Coagulant for Variable Surface Water Sources in Texas
This paper will present bench test and full scale results and discuss key challenges of implementing bench test findings at full scale in the context of the case study demonstration […]
Biofiltration as a Membrane Pre-Treatment Technology
The purpose of submitting this abstract to Membrane Technology Conference-2019 is to present that biofilters are an excellent fit as pretreatment for membrane systems. This study describes a success story […]
Membrane Filtration for Arsenic Removal from Groundwater in Industrial Applications
This abstract will discuss background information to provide context for arsenic removal from a regulatory and health perspective, as well as a brief overview of alternate treatment methods. This paper […]
Is Organic Fouling Making Your Life Difficult? Mitigation of Organic Fouling of Low Pressure Membranes Using LC-OCD
This paper will describe the use of a unique organics characterization method, liquid chromatography with on-line carbon detection to identify the primary cause of organic fouling in two fouling scale […]
Custom Engineered Membrane Filtration Pilot on Ozonated Secondary Effluent Water as a Source
The water reuse industry has transitioned from proprietary microfiltration (MF) systems to MF systems designed by original equipment manufacturers (OEM) that can be adapted to operate a handful of membrane […]
Potable Reuse Side-by-Side Pilot Testing – O3-BAF vs. UF-RO on Two Different Source Waters
JEA recently completed Phase I of a 3-Phase plan to test and implement a potable reuse project. Phase I was a pilot-scale evaluation of alternative treatment trains (O3-BAF vs. UF/RO) […]
