(graduation committee) Degree granting institution Delft University of Technology Programme Civil Engineering Project CIE5050-09 Additional Graduation Work, Research Project Date 2023-03-22 Abstract Constant flux MF/UF filtration is preferred in real-world applications because it provides more consistent permeate flow rates than fixed transmembrane pressure studies. Particularly, little is understood about the fouling of ceramic membranes in constant flux filtration modes by nano-sized O/W emulsions. In this study, the effects of emulsion chemistry containing pH, different surfactants, as well as salinity on the alumina and SiC deposited ceramic UF membranes with various physicochemical surface properties in the constant flux mode were compared.
