Architecture, component, and microbiome of biofilm involved in the fouling of membrane bioreactors

Bioreactors: Films affecting filtration A study of factors affecting the accumulation of biofilms on filtration membranes in bioreactors should aid efforts to combat the problem. Membrane bioreactors combine filtration through a membrane with an active biological process. They are widely used in mun...
