Effects of Characteristics of Flocculent Aggregates on Membrane Fouling in Microfiltration with Coagulation Pretreatment

Coagulation has been investigated for pretreatment of low-pressure membrane systems such as microfiltration and ultrafiltration. Coagulation pretreatment can reduce foulants (particles and organic matter) prior to membrane filtration. However, when in-line coagulation or submerged type of filtration...
