“…Dynamic membranes were first reported by Oak Ridge National Laboratory in the United States in the early 1960s. When conducting seawater desalination experiment, the researchers found that a physical dynamic zirconia membrane with reverse osmosis would form when the porous material was exposed to a specific solution [162] [163]. The dynamic membrane bioreactor was intercepted by cheap coarse porous filter substrates, such as non-woven cloth, and solid-liquid separation performance was similar to microfiltration and ultrafiltration membranes, when a sludge layer (dynamic membrane) was attached to the filter membrane module [164].…”

As the world focuses on reducing greenhouse gas emissions and recovering energy from sewage, technologies that can recover energy and reuse wastewater are becoming increasingly important. Anaerobic membrane bioreactor (AnMBR) technology has recently attracted attention, as it can achieve energy recovery and yields high-quality effluent. However, the large-scale commercial application of AnMBRs requires that certain barriers be overcome, including membrane pollution and dissolved methane recovery. In this review article, we summarize the basic principles of anaerobic wastewater digestion and discuss the excellent performance of AnMBRs for wastewater treatment. Various factors, membrane types, and pollution are discussed, and control strategies for dealing with membrane pollution are put forward. In addition, a variety of new AnMBRs are described that may better control membrane pollution. Finally, future research directions for AnMBRs are presented to promote the large-scale integrated application of AnMBRs for industrial wastewater treatment.
