A Novel Anaerobic Gravity-Driven Dynamic Membrane Bioreactor (AnGDMBR): Performance and Fouling Characterization. MEMBRANES 2022; 12:membranes12070683.

Abstract
Despite numerous studies undertaken to define the development and significance of the dynamic membrane (DM) formed on some coarse materials, the optimization of reactor configuration and the control of the membrane fouling of anaerobic dynamic membrane bioreactor (AnDMBR) need to be further investigated. The aim of this study was to design a novel anaerobic gravity-driven dynamic membrane bioreactor (AnGDMBR) for the effective and low-cost treatment of municipal wastewater. An 800 mesh nylon net was determined as the optimal support material based on its less irreversible fouling and higher effluent quality by the dead-end filtration experiments. During the continuous operation period of 44 days, the reactor performance, DM filtration behavior and microbial characteristics were studied and compared with the results of recent studies. AnGDMBR had a higher removal rate of chemical oxygen demand (COD) of 85.45 ± 7.06%. Photometric analysis integrating with three-dimensional excitation–emission matrix fluorescence spectra showed that the DM effectively intercepted organics (46.34 ± 16.50%, 75.24 ± 17.35%, and 66.39 ± 17.66% for COD, polysaccharides, and proteins). The addition of suspended carriers effectively removed the DM layer by mechanical scouring, and the growth rate of transmembrane pressure (TMP) and the decreasing rate of flux were reduced from 18.7 to 4.7 Pa/h and 0.07 to 0.01 L/(m2·h2), respectively. However, a dense and thin morphological structure of the DM layer was still observed in the end of reactor operation and plenty of filamentous microorganisms (i.e., SJA-15 and Anaerolineaceae) and the acidogens (i.e., Aeromonadaceae) predominated in the DM layer, which was also embedded in the membrane pore and led to severe irreversible fouling. In summary, the novel AnGDMBR has a superior performance (higher organic removal and lower fouling rates), which provides useful information on the configuration and operation of AnDMBRs for municipal wastewater treatment.

Abstract
Membrane technology is widely used in water and wastewater treatment. However, membrane fouling remains one of the biggest challenges for membrane applications. In this study, an electrically assisted technique was developed for the control of fouling on flat-sheet ceramic membranes. The novel conductive membrane was fabricated by coating dopamine and carbon nanotubes (CNTs) onto the surface of an α-alumina membrane support to form a conductive CNT coating. The resulting flat-sheet conductive ceramic membrane (FSCCM) exhibited excellent electric conductivity and stability, which performed well in filtration of the synthetic wastewater containing inorganic matter (kaolin solution) or organic pollutants (oil emulsion). By applying a negative charge on the FSCCM with a DC voltage of 2.0 V, the membrane fouling rate was reduced by approximately 50%. The energy consumption rate for the electrically assisted membrane fouling control was only 22.2 × 10-3 kWh/m3 in paused-charge mode, with a pause duration of 15 s. A fouling-layer analysis indicted that the imposed electric field greatly reduced the amount of strongly attached foulants on the membrane surface and in the membrane pores. It is believed that the electric field exerted an electrostatic force on the negatively charged pollutants, such as particles and oil droplets, which prevented the foulants from attaching to the membrane surface. This FSCCM-based method provides a clean, effective, and energy-efficient technique for membrane fouling control, thereby enabling high-rate membrane filtration.

Effects of hydrodynamic shear stress on sludge properties, N 2O generation, and microbial community structure during activated sludge process. JOURNAL OF ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT 2020; 274:111215. [PMID: 32814212 DOI: 10.1016/j.jenvman.2020.111215] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/28/2020] [Revised: 07/06/2020] [Accepted: 08/07/2020] [Indexed: 06/11/2023]
Abstract
Sludge properties are critical to the treatment performance and potentially correlate with nitrous oxide (N2O) generation during activated sludge processes. The hydrodynamic shear stress induced by aeration has a significant influence on sludge properties and is inevitable for wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs). In this study, the effects of aerobic induced hydrodynamic shear stress on sludge properties, N2O generation, and microbial community structure were investigated using three parallel sequencing batch reactors (SBRs) with identical dissolved oxygen (DO) concentrations. Results showed that with a shear stress increase from 1.5 × 10-2 N/m2 to 5.0 × 10-2 N/m2, the COD and NH4+-N removal rates were enhanced from 89.4% to 94.0% and from 93.9% to 98.0%, respectively, while the TN removal rate decreased from 66.0% to 56.5%. Settleability of the activated sludge flocs (ASFs) also increased with the enhancement of shear stress, due to variation in sludge properties including particle size, regularity, compactibility, and EPS (extracellular polymeric substances) composition. The increase in shear stress promoted oxygen diffusion within the ASFs and mitigated NO2--N accumulation, leading to a decrease in the N2O-N conversion rate from (4.8 ± 0.3)% to (2.2 ± 0.6)% (based on TN removal). Microbial analysis results showed that the functional bacteria involved in the biological nitrogen removal was closely related with shear stress. The increase in shear stress favored the enrichment of nitrite oxidizing bacteria (NOB) while suppressed the accumulation of ammonia-oxidizing bacteria (AOB) and denitrifying bacteria (DNB).

Polysaccharides derived from Enteromorpha prolifera for the removal of silver nanoparticle-humic acid contaminants by a coagulation-ultrafiltration process. RSC Adv 2020; 10:16079-16087.

Abstract
Silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) pose serious health risks to humans as the adsorption between AgNPs and humic acid (HA) makes it difficult to remove them from surface water. To solve this problem, polysaccharides extracted from a marine alga, Enteromorpha prolifera (denoted as Ep), were used to eliminate the AgNP–HA composite contaminant via a coagulation-ultrafiltration (C-UF) process. The structure of Ep, AgNP–HA removal mechanism and membrane fouling were analyzed. The results indicated that the backbone of Ep was composed of (1 → 4)-linked l-rhamnopyranose, (1 → 4)-linked d-xylose and (1 → 4)-linked glucuronic acid. With the charge neutralization of PAC hydrolysates and the bridging-sweep role of Ep, AgNPs could be removed completely by the C-UF process. The coagulation performance and membrane flux were the highest when the PAC and Ep dosages were 2.0 mg L−1 and 0.3 mg L−1, respectively. In addition, when Ep was applied in the C-UF process, the flocs exhibited larger sizes, faster growth rates, better recovery ability and looser structures, which resulted in lower cake resistance and less pore blocking of the UF membrane. Consequently, the membrane flux could be improved by about 25–30% due to the addition of Ep. Applying Ep as a coagulant aid in C-UF process could simultaneously remove AgNPs and reduce membrane fouling.![]()

Optimized coagulation pretreatment alleviates ultrafiltration membrane fouling: The role of floc properties and slow-mixing speed on mechanisms of chitosan-assisted coagulation. J Environ Sci (China) 2019; 82:82-92.

Abstract
To alleviate ultrafiltration (UF) membrane fouling, the pre-coagulation of poly-aluminum chloride (PACl) with the aid of chitosan (CTS) was conducted for synthetic humic acid-kaolin water treatment. Pre-coagulation of three molecular weights (MW) CTSs (50-190 kDa (CTSL), 190-310 kDa (CTSM) and 310-375 kDa (CTSH)) was optimized with slow-mixing speeds of 30, 60 and 90 r/min, respectively. The removal efficiency and floc properties as well as membrane fouling were analyzed, and were compared to results obtained by conventional coagulation with PACl. Results showed that variations in floc properties could be ascribed to the coagulation mechanisms of CTSL/CTSM/CTSH at different slow-mixing speeds, resulting in reduced UF membrane fouling. Specifically, at the low speed of 30 r/min, all three CTS types produced flocs with similar properties, while CTSL resulted in the lowest removal efficiency and aggravated irreversible fouling. At the appropriate speed of 60 r/min, CTSM generated the most compact flocs with the combined effects of bridging and path mechanisms. The compact cake layer formed could alleviate irreversible fouling, which was beneficial for prolonging the operation of the UF membrane. At the high speed of 90 r/min, CTSH formed fragile flocs and aggravated irreversible membrane fouling. We considered membrane fouling to be affected by floc properties and the resultant removal efficiency, which was governed by the MW of the CTS used and the slow-mixing speed applied as well.

Abstract
Ultrafiltration is an emerging technology for drinking water production, but the membrane fouling is still a challenge. This study was carried out to investigate the effect of aluminum speciation on UF membrane fouling behavior by different NOM fractions-humic substances and proteins, as represented by humic acid (HA) and bovine serum albumin (BSA), respectively. The interesting results showed that the total fouling resistance of the mixture of HA-BSA-kaolinite solution without coagulant demonstrated a slight decrease in comparison with those of the individually filtered substances, indicating a mitigatory fouling effect. The hydrolysis of aluminum products was various as pH and membrane fouling was related to aluminum speciation. The average size of flocs dramatically increased and fractal dimension of flocs decreased with the increasing of pH value independent on water quality, which indicated that aluminum speciation had a significant impact on floc properties. For the mixture of HA-BSA-kaolinte, the slightly larger of flocs average size in comparison with the individual organic fraction after coagulation was probably attributing that BSA was encapsulated by HA to enlarge the molecular length and floc size further increased. The membrane performance also showed that coagulation effluent of HA-BSA-kaolinite mitigated membrane fouling. The strong linear relationship was observed between flocs fractal dimension and final membrane flux in this research. From the results, the control of flocs fractal dimension should be considered as a new technique for traditional hybrid coagulation/ultrafiltration system, which resulted in minimized total and irreversible fouling and has a meaningful engineering application value.

Abstract
The breakage and regrowth of flocs formed by sweep flocculation were investigated on different flocculation mechanisms using additional dosage coagulant of poly aluminium chloride (PACl) and non-ionic polyacrylamide (PAM) to explore the reversibility after floc breakage. The optimal dosage of PACl was 0.15 mM (as alum), and zeta potential exceeding 1 mV meant that sweep flocculation was dominant in the pre-flocculated process. Re-coagulation efficiency increased with additional coagulants dosing, and sedimentation rates of flocs re-formed by small additional dosage of non-ionic PAM are faster than that of flocs re-formed by additional PACl. For additional inorganic coagulant (PACl) during regrowth processes, few negatively charged particles that existed in water sample restricted the effect of charge neutralization. An amorphous aluminum hydroxide precipitation could re-activate the weaker points on the broken floc surface, but regrown flocs have loose structure indicating worse settleability. For additional non-ionic PAM dosing, lower dosage showed large values of fractal dimension and average size, probably due to that unfolded curly molecular chain and exposed amide groups of non-ionic PAM which provide superb conditions for amide group interacting with particles. The use of non-ionic PAM in flocculation has advantage of being more effective than the cationic PACl, probably because it may avoid the re-stabilization of broken flocs by polymer adsorption driven by electrostatic attraction. Hence, appropriate dosing of PAM after breakage could improve the flocs characteristics with large size and compact structure.
