Abstract: In the process of crossflow microfiltration, a deposit of cake layer tends to form on the membrane, which usually controls the performance of filtration. However it is found that there exists a condition under which no ...

Abstract: During crossflow microfiltration, formation of cake layer on the membrane inhibits the filter performance. Previous studies on cake formation have focused on the monodisperse conditions, although most field applications ...

Abstract: Cake layer in cross-flow microfiltration can be reduced by coagulation of particles. This is because enlarging particle size by coagulation increases shear induced diffusivity and the back transport of rejected particles. ...
