Polysaccharide-hydrolysing enzymes enhance the <em>in vitro</em> cleaning efficiency of Nanofiltration membranes
The development of biofilm on the surface of filtration membranes is the main fouling component of water filtration systems. Chemical cleaning is only partially effective in removing biofilm components from the membrane surface. In order to identify opportunities to improve the efficiency of commerc...
