Optimization of Operating Parameters in Hollow Fiber MBRs for Industrial Effluent Treatment
Industrial effluent treatment poses significant challenges due to its complex composition and high pollutant concentrations. Membrane bioreactors (MBRs), particularly those employing hollow fiber membranes, have emerged as a viable solution for treating industrial wastewater. Fine-tuning the operating parameters of these systems is vital to achieve high removal efficiency and ensure long-term performance.
Factors such as transmembrane pressure, raw flow rate, aeration rate, mixed liquor suspended solids (MLSS) concentration, and stay time exert a significant influence on the treatment process.
Thorough optimization of these parameters can lead to improved removal of pollutants such as organic matter, nitrogen compounds, and heavy metals. Furthermore, it can reduce membrane fouling, enhance energy efficiency, and maximize the overall system efficiency.

Strategies for Optimizing PVDF MBR Performance by Addressing Fouling
Fouling remains a significant challenge in the operation of polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) membrane bioreactors (MBRs). Such buildup of biomass, organic matter, and other constituents on the membrane surface can greatly reduce MBR performance by increasing transmembrane pressure, reducing permeate flux, and affecting overall process efficiency. In order to mitigate this fouling issue, a range of approaches have been investigated and implemented. These strategies aim to minimize the accumulation of foulants on the membrane surface through mechanisms such as enhanced backwashing, chemical pre-treatment of feed water, or the employment of antifouling coatings.
Effective fouling mitigation is essential for maintaining optimal PVDF MBR performance and ensuring long-term system sustainability.
