Membrane bioreactor is an innovative technology for Wastewater
treatment. The book provides in-depth understanding of Membrane
Bioreactor technology for wastewater treatment and reuse. The objective
of the research was to mitigate fouling in membrane bioreactors using
biofilm carriers; Sponge was used as moving media. Background theory is
discussed in Chapter 1 which provides the research objectives achieved.
Chapter 2 provides basic insight of the MBR technology, membrane fouling
mechanism, factors and mitigation approaches. Chapter 3 provides the
detailed methodology applied to achieve research objectives, the
protocols followed to determine parameters pertinent to MBR performance
and operation. Chapter 4 provides the results obtained. Chapter 5
provides the conclusions drawn and recommendations for further study.
This book is a useful tool for students and professionals having
interest in Membrane Bioreactor and wastewater treatment.
