Quorum quenching, biological characteristics, and microbial community dynamics as key factors for combating fouling of membrane bioreactors
Abstract Membrane fouling is a major challenge in membrane bioreactors (MBRs) for wastewater treatment. This study investigates the effects of disturbance and solid retention time (SRT) on quorum-quenching (QQ) MBRs relative to antifouling efficacy and microbial community change. The fouling rate in...
