In situ conductive spacers for early pore wetting detection in membrane distillation

Alla Alpatova et al.

Summary: This study proposes a wetting detection method for membrane distillation (MD) using electrically-conductive coated spacers. The method was found to generate electrical current upon wetting, with significant signal amplification as the voltage increases. It provides a faster response compared to conventional methods, and allows for early indication of membrane impairment without adverse effects on MD performance.

Biofilm removal efficacy using direct electric current in cross-flow ultrafiltration processes for water treatment

Sarah Kerdi et al.

Summary: This study proposes a novel method for cleaning biofouling membranes in water treatment using a direct electric current. Experimental results show that either chlorine or hydrogen-producing configuration can effectively remove biofilm, achieving bacterial inactivation and biomass removal under different conditions.

Global water scarcity including surface water quality and expansions of clean water technologies

Michelle T. H. van Vliet et al.

Summary: Global water scarcity is influenced by both water quantity and quality issues, and increasing investment in clean water technologies is crucial to reduce the number of people affected. Considering water quality factors can raise the percentage of population suffering from severe water scarcity in heavily affected regions. Excessive water withdrawals and polluted return flows contribute to water scarcity and degraded water quality in severe water scarcity regions. Expanding desalination and treated wastewater reuse can effectively alleviate water scarcity levels in Asia, but potential side effects must be carefully considered.

Effect of localized hydrodynamics on biofilm attachment and growth in a cross-flow filtration channel

Sarah Kerdi et al.

Summary: The study investigates the mechanism of biofilm attachment and growth under various flow conditions, showing that biofouling primarily occurs in regions with low shear stresses. As filtration time progresses, biofilm grows faster on the membrane in the center of spacer cells, indicating that low shear stress and steady hydrodynamics conditions promote biofilm formation.

Evaluating the impact of pretreatment processes on fouling of reverse osmosis membrane by secondary wastewater

Y-H. Cai et al.

Summary: The pretreatment of secondary effluents significantly impacts the fouling potential of reverse osmosis membranes, with different methods showing varying effects on indices. The study found that BCMF pretreatment reduced fouling potential in all three indices, while UF pretreatment had a greater impact on reducing specific types of fouling.

Novel hole-pillar spacer design for improved hydrodynamics and biofouling mitigation in membrane filtration

Adnan Qamar et al.

Summary: Three different feed spacer designs were studied, and the novel hole-pillar spacer showed the best filtration performance with the lowest feed channel pressure drop, lowest shear stress, and highest permeate flux. Optical Coherent Tomography imaging revealed less biofilm thickness development on the proposed hole-pillar spacer.

Organic fouling control in reverse osmosis (RO) by effective membrane cleaning using saturated CO2 solution

H. Alnajjar et al.

Summary: This study explores a new membrane cleaning technique using saturated CO2 solution to alleviate membrane fouling caused by organic matter. The results show that using CO2 technique for cleaning under different concentrations of Ca2+ can improve the efficiency of permeate flux recovery. The observed effect is attributed to the transition from gel layer to looser cake layer which makes CO2 bubble nucleation and subsequent permeate flux recovery more effective.

Real-time fouling monitoring and membrane autopsy analysis in forward osmosis for wastewater reuse

Sung Ju Im et al.

Summary: This study monitored the development of fouling on the FO membrane surface in real time and assessed the physical and chemical characteristics of the fouling layer through performance evaluation and in-depth analysis. The fouling development was classified into 4 phases: virgin performance, initial deposition, stabilization, and aggregation. With the growing fouling layer and with aggregation, the removal rate of organic matter decreased while the removal rate of inorganic matter remained high.
