Considering the Prospect of Utilizing Anaerobic Membrane Biofouling Layers Advantageously for the Removal of Emerging Contaminants

Membrane biofilm formation has traditionally been perceived as a wholly negative occurrence in membrane filtration-based wastewater treatment systems due to its resultant effect on transmembrane pressure and energy expenditure. This is the case for both membrane bioreactor (MBR) systems, generally,...
