Bacterial Growth Potential of Antiscalants used in Reverse Osmosis Systems using Seawater Autochthonous Microbial Communities

Antiscalants are chemicals used in membrane-based water desalination processes to prevent the scaling of salts on the membrane. Previous studies suggested that antiscalants could lead or contribute biological fouling by providing growth-promoting factors such as source of biodegradable carbon or pho...
