CFD simulations of flow fields during ultrafiltration: Effects of hydrodynamic strain rates with and without a particle cake layer on the permeation of mobile genetic elements

Christoph Schwaller et al.

Summary: Membrane ultrafiltration combined with inline dosing of powdered activated carbon is a popular method for water reclamation. However, larger genetic elements can penetrate through the membrane pores due to hydrodynamic forces. Computational fluid dynamics was used to model the flow fields in the feed channel of a dead-end ultrafiltration membrane module and analyze the effects of activated carbon particles on genetic element retention. The results show that the presence of activated carbon particles has negligible impact on permeation through the membrane pores.

Initial behaviors and removal of extracellular plasmid gene in membrane bioreactor

Rongxuan Wang et al.

Summary: Extracellular antibiotic resistance genes (eARG) play a crucial role in the spread of antimicrobial resistance (AMR) in wastewater treatment and aquatic environments. Membrane bioreactors (MBRs) are more effective at removing ARGs from wastewater compared to traditional activated sludge processes. However, the removal of eARGs may be limited by their size, preventing them from passing through microfiltration (MF) membranes.
