HOLLOW FIBER MEMBRANE BIOREACTORS: DESIGN AND PERFORMANCE CONSIDERATIONS

Hollow fiber membrane bioreactors present a versatile platform for biochemical processes. Their design encompasses an array of hollow fibers, functioning as separation layers. Optimizing the geometry and composition of these fibers is vital for achieving desired process performance. Key design considerations include fiber diameter, number density,

Membrane bioreactor (MBR) process has emerged as a prominent solution for wastewater treatment due to its ability to achieve high removal efficiencies of organic matter, nutrients, and suspended solids. MBRs integrate a biological reactor with a membrane separation unit, effectively combining the advantages of conventional activated sludge systems
