Content: Preface , Pages ix-xi About the Editors , Page xii Contributors , Pages xiii-xv Chapter 1 - Introduction , Pages 1-19 Chapter 2 - Fundamentals , Pages 21-121 Chapter 3 - Design , Pages 123-162 Chapter 4 - Commercial technologies , Pages 163-205 Chapter 5 - Case studies , Pages 207-272 Appendix A - Blower power consumption , Pages 273-276 Appendix B - MBR biotreatment base parameter values , Pages 277-280 Appendix C - Hollow fibre module parameters , Pages 281-284 Appendix D - Membrane products , Pages 285-291 Appendix E - Major recent MBR and wastewater conferences , Pages 293-297 Appendix F - Selected professional and trade bodies , Pages 299-301 Nomenclature , Pages 303-306 Abbreviations , Pages 307-309 Glossary of terms , Pages 311-315 Index , Pages 317-325 The use of membranes is increasing throughout industry, and particularly the water industry.The municipal water industry, which is concerned with the provision of clean drinking water to the population, is a big user and developer of membrane technology which helps it to provide water free of pathogens, chemicals, odours and unwanted tastes. Municipal authorities also have to process sewage and waste water, and membranes are used extensively in these processes.
The MBR Book covers all important aspects of Membrane BioReactors in water and waste water treatment, from the fundamentals of the processes via design principles to MBR technologies. Industrial case studies help interpret actual results and give pointers for best practice. Useful appendices provide data on commercial membranes and international membrane organisations.
