Microfiltration of oxidation pond effluent using single flexible tubular fabric membrane and polyelectrolyte dosage

Membrane separation is an effective wastewater treatment alternative. However, as with all membrane processes, the fouling effect has always been one of the major limiting factors for their usage. Of the current available membrane modules, the tubular configuration is the least affected with fouling...
