The role of biofilm formation in reverse osmosis membrane system performance and possible antifouling strategies

In this study, confocal microscope observation coupled with the fluorescence staining was employed to monitor biofouling of Reverse Osmosis (RO) membranes using Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Pseudomonas fluorescence as model fouling organisms. A range of parameters, including the presence of feed chann...
