Abstract The objective of this study was to investigate the hydrodynamics of an external-loop airlift membrane reactor (ELAMR). The ELAMR was operated in two modes: without (mode A) and with bubbles ...

Extracellular polymeric substances (EPS)-related biofouling in anaerobic electrochemical membrane bioreactors (AnEMBR) is commonly mitigated, yet the underlying mechanisms require further elucidation.

Aeration was provided continuously by two fine bubble air diffusers (EPDM membrane) in the C-MBR pilot plant, one for aerating the suspension with a mean flow of 10 L air.min -1 and another for ...

Sulfide-containing waste streams are generated in mining, petrochemical plants, tanneries, viscose rayon manufacture, and the gasification of coal. Colorless sulfur bacteria can oxidize sulfide to ...
