Critical flux concept for microfiltration fouling
1.4K
TL;DR: The concept of critical flux is introduced in this article to identify the critical flux and the desirability of starting filtration operations at a low flux, where a flux below which a decline of flux with time does not occur.

Rejection and Critical Flux of Calcium Sulphate in a Ceramic Titanium Dioxide Nanofiltration Membrane
Amer Naji Ahmed
- 21 Oct 2013
TL;DR: In this article, the authors describe the rejection efficiency and the fouling behavior of calcium sulphate solutes in a 1 nm tubular ceramic titanium dioxide nanofiltration membrane, which is considered as one of the greatest scaling potential inorganic salts that are responsible for membrane fouling.

The application of enhanced fluid dynamic gauging as a fouling sensor for pressure driven membrane separations in the food industry
Sarah Jones
- 01 May 2012
TL;DR: In this paper, a relatively new technique known as Fluid Dynamic Gauging (FDG) was applied to examine the fouling layer thickness, and the results show that FDG is a versatile and powerful technique for characterising the dynamics and mechanical behaviour of fouling layers on membrane surfaces.

Investigation of effect of dynamic operational conditions on membrane fouling in a membrane enhanced biological phosphorus removal process
Syed Zaki Abdullah
- 01 Jan 2007
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors explored the process performance and membrane fouling in the membrane enhanced biological phosphorus removal (MEBPR) process under different operating conditions by comparing two MEBPRs operated in parallel, one with constant inflow and another with a variable inflow.

Factors affecting flux in crossflow filtration
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors measured flux, cake formation and specific resistance for the cross-flow filtration of a mineral slurry and found that crossflow velocity had a significant effect on specific cake resistance.

Cake resistance and solute rejection in bacterial microfiltration: The role of the extracellular matrix
TL;DR: The mechanism by which cake resistance and solute rejection occurs was shown to depend on the extracellular matrix of the organisms and the implications for future studies on crossflow microfiltration of biomass and biofluids are significant.

Yeast cell microfiltration: Flux enhancement in baffled and pulsatile flow systems
TL;DR: In this paper, a simple alternative to the dual head pump, which involved the use of solenoid valves for producing flow reversal, was developed, and the flux was significantly increased using this new operating mode.
