Sequencing Batch Integrated Fixed-Film Activated Sludge Membrane Process for Treatment of Tapioca Processing Wastewater by Nur Izzati Zainuddin, Muhammad Roil Bilad, Lisendra Marbelia, Wiratni Budhijanto, Nasrul Arahman, Afrilia Fahrina, Norazanita Shamsuddin, Zaki Ismail Zaki, Zeinhom M. El-Bahy, Asep Bayu Dani Nandiyanto, Poernomo Gunawan

“…The results of short-term filtration tests showed the significant impact of hydrostatic pressure on membrane compaction and instant cake layer formation. Increasing the pressure from 2.2 to 10 kPa lowered the permeability of clean water and activated sludge from 720 to 425 and from 110 to 50 L/m²·h bar, respectively. …”

Water Recovery From Produced Water Via Forward Osmosis by Lim, Siow Yoke

“…With the increased of oil concentration from 10 ppm to 50 ppm, the permeate flux had been reduced due to the increased of cake layer. On the other hand, the increment of draw solution concentration from 1 M NaCl to 2 M NaCl had enhanced the membrane performance with improved permeate flux as greater driving force in term of osmotic pressure difference was created to draw the water from the feed side. …”

Ultrafiltration and Reverse Osmosis Membranes for Treating Wastewater Effluent from Gas Turbine Power Plants using the Statistical Method of Taguchi by Ahmed Faiq Al-Alawy, Mohammed Kamil Al-Ameri

“…It was noticed that more than 99% oil removal can be achieved and flux of 580 L/m2.hr by UF process and that the fouling mechanism of UF process follows the cake/gel layer filtration model. It was concluded that 100% removal of oil content can be achieved along with 99% for the TDS rejection and flux of 76 L/m2.hr by RO process. …”

Styrene-Lauryl Acrylate Rubber Nanogels as a Plugging Agent for Oil-Based Drilling Fluids with the Function of Improving Emulsion Stability by Hongyan Du, Kaihe Lv, Jinsheng Sun, Xianbin Huang, Haokun Shen

“…The results show that, due to good dispersion stability and oil-absorbing expansion ability, the PSL rubber nanogels have a wide range of adaptations for nano-scale pores to deposit a layer of dense filter cake on the surface of filter paper with various pore diameters, reducing the filtration of mineral oil and W/O emulsion significantly. …”

Development of novel submerged anaerobic osmosis membrane bioreactor by Gu, Yangshuo

“…In this case, solution chemistries such as pH and presence of calcium ions posed remarkable effect on the cake layer composition due to the effect of foulant-foulant interaction(s); In contrast, the foulant composition was not strongly affected by the membrane type (CTA versus TFC) nor the testing mode (pressure-driven NF mode versus osmosis-driven FO mode). …”
