Contributions of Internal and External Fouling to Transmembrane Pressure in MBRs: Experiments and Modeling
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper reports a new approach to understanding membrane fouling in membrane bioreactors (MBR). The foulants were categorized into those inside the membrane (internal fouling) and those on the membrane forming the ...
Determination of Porosity and Thickness of Biofilm Attached on Irregular-Shaped Media
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Biofilm density, porosity, and thickness are biofilm architecture properties that are important but often difficult to measure. In this study, wet and dry biofilm densities and biofilm porosity in shredded tire biofilters ...
Graywater Reclamation by a Shredded Tire Biofilter and a Membrane Bioreactor in Series
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The search for sustainable and effective water reclamation technologies has been stimulated by increasingly urgent water scarcity. Graywater (GW) is an excellent potential resource for relieving the water scarcity problem ...
Storm Surge Projection and Objective-Based Risk Management for Climate Change Adaptation along the US Atlantic Coast
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Climate change brings intense hurricanes and storm surges to the US Atlantic coast. These disruptive meteorological events, combined with sea level rise (SLR), inundate coastal areas and adversely impact infrastructure and ...
