Fundamentals of Membrane Bioreactors

This book provides a critical, carefully researched, up-to-date summary of membranes for membrane bioreactors. It presents a comprehensive and self-contained outline of the fundamentals of membrane bioreactors, especially their relevance as an advanced water treatment technology. This outline helps to bring the technology to the readers' attention, and positions the critical topic of membrane fouling as one of the key impediments to its more widescale adoption. The target readership includes researchers and industrial practitioners with an interest in membrane bioreactors.

Presents, in a single, concise volume, a straightforward description of membrane bioreactors Comprehensively reviews the literature on membrane bioreactors in the context of both system design and materials innovation Clearly outlines operating approaches to minimize membrane fouling, with links to the fundamental phenomena Includes supplementary material: sn.pub/extras
