Mitigation of membrane biofouling via immobilizing Ag-MOFs on composite membrane surface for extractive membrane bioreactor by Yuan, Guoyu, Tian, Yuxiao, Wang, Bingxin, You, Xiaofei, Liao, Yuan

“…This excellent anti-biofouling performance should be attributed to the stable, controlled and long-lasting Ag+release from Ag-MOFs, as well as its less hydrophobic and negative charged surface properties, which made #M2 undergo the k0's increasing and gradual stabilization stages in the long-term EMBR operations.…”
