Membrane Bioreactor Technology: An Innovative Water Treatment Process covers the basic principles of membrane bioreactor technology and advances of membrane bioreactor technology to meet the challenge of safe water supply. The book discusses concrete theoretical aspects of membrane bioreactors, several design aspects, as well as operational aspects. It covers wide variety of membrane bioreactor topics like filtration characteristics, membrane modification techniques, membrane material transfiguration, transformation of fouling characteristics and strategies of fouling mitigation and control. It also covers practical aspects and operational hitches as well as maintenance of membrane bioreactors. The representative cases and exemplifications of membrane bioreactor technology makes the book an indispensable resource helping readers to understand the tuning features of membrane bioreactor technology with emerging pollutant characteristics.
