Membrane Technology: Feasibility of Solid/Liquid Separation in Wastewater Treatment

Abstract

This online tool provides users with an understanding of membrane bioreactor (MBR) technology through a comprehensive tutorial, a complete set of databases, and two tools that allow users to assess the applicability of this technology to a specific wastewater treatment situation. This project represents the first comprehensive effort to compile and critically review performance data on membrane solid-liquid separation processes used in wastewater treatment. Published by WERF.

As of February 2020, the web tool is no longer available.

Originally funded as WERF project 00-CTS-8.
