More Effective Maintenance Clearing on Microfiltration Membrane for a Secondary Effluent with High SDI, Hydrophilic Nom, and Low Temperature

In this case study, a pressurized microfilter (MF) was used without pretreatment processes such as screening and coagulation. In order to overcome the fouling issue associated with the secondary effluent, the efforts to make were to find a more effective membrane cleaning method. The findings from the case study can be a base in designing and operating a microfiltration process upstream of reverse osmosis.
