Membrane bioreactors gained increasing interest due to its small footprint and high efficiency. Nonetheless, high capital and operational cost of MBR remains a challenge. With the aim to reduce MBR cost, this study used Dacron mesh to form a dynamic membrane that serves as a substitute to conventional membranes to treat municipal wastewater containing organic micropollutants (OMPs).

Abstract

Membrane bioreactors gained increasing interest due to its small footprint and high efficiency. Nonetheless, high capital and operational cost of MBR remains a challenge. With the aim to reduce MBR cost, this study used Dacron mesh to form a dynamic membrane that serves as a substitute to conventional membranes to treat municipal wastewater containing organic micropollutants (OMPs). The SFDM system obtained COD, NH4-N and PO4-P removal of 95%, 47% and 14%, respectively.
