Optimization of Air Backwash Frequency during the Ultrafiltration of Seawater

Optimization of Air Backwash Frequency during the Ultrafiltration of Seawater

The main objective of this paper is to study the effect of new air backwash on dead-end ultrafiltration of seawater with a pilot at semi-industrial scale (20 m<sup>3</sup>/day). To control membrane fouling, two different backwashes were used to clean the membrane: classical backwash (CB)...
