Lousada Ferreira, M.D.C. (author), Van Lier, J.B. (author), Van der Graaf, J.H.J.M. (author)The relation between activated sludge filterability and mixed liquor suspended solids (MLSS) concentration in membrane bioreactors (MBRs) is framed in a single hypothesis, explaining results seemingly contradictory. A total of 44 activated sludge samples were collected and analyzed on a variety of parameters, i.e. filterability, MLSS...journal article 2015

Lousada-Ferreira, M. (author), Krzeminski, P. (author), Geilvoet, S. (author), Moreau, A. (author), Gil, J.A. (author), Evenblij, H. (author), Van Lier, J.B. (author), Van der Graaf, J.H.J.M. (author)Prevention and removal of fouling is often the most energy intensive process in Membrane Bioreactors (MBRs), responsible for 40% to 50% of the total specific energy consumed in submerged MBRs. In the past decade, methods were developed to quantify and qualify fouling, aiming to support optimization in MBR operation. Therefore, there is a need...journal article 2014

Krzeminski, P. (author)Despite continuous developments in the field of MBR technology, membrane fouling together with the associated energy demand and related costs issues remain major challenges. The efficiency of the filtration process in an MBR is governed by the activated sludge filterability, which is still limitedly understood and is determined by the...doctoral thesis 2013

Geilvoet, S.P. (author)Clean water is becoming a scarce resource. As a consequence reclaimed wastewater can be an attractive alternative to replace existing water resources for non-potable reuse options. In order to achieve this goal advanced treatment technologies are required. An example of such technology is the membrane bioreactor (MBR) process. In the MBR process...doctoral thesis 2010
