“…It has been reported that SMP are complex and play an important role in membrane fouling (Meng et al, 2009). However, it is not clear that which types of proteins and polysaccharides were the main foulants and whether the GAC influences their existence in anaerobic reactors.…”

“…Although AnMBR has advantages such as high removal efficiency of organic matters and small footprint, etc., there are still some challenging issues. Particularly, membrane fouling is the key challenge for the widespread applications of AnMBR (Guo et al, 2012;Meng et al, 2009).…”

“…It is also important that in comparison to the conventional activated sludge method the use of a secondary clarifier can be omitted, and thereby the footprint of the treatment system can be reduced. It is also possible to maintain high concentration of sludge in the membrane bioreactor, which corresponds to increased capacity of a treatment system [12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19].…”

“…However, its widespread application is still restricted by a membrane fouling phenomenon, which lowers the applied flux, reduces the sustainability of operation, increases the frequency of maintenance and intensive cleaning, reduces the membrane lifetime, and eventually increases the investment and operational cost. The traditional approaches for fouling control are mainly based on the physico-chemical principles, such as membrane modification, optimization of operational conditions, coagulant addition, cyclic filtration, etc, (Le-Clech et al, 2006, Yeon et al, 2009a, Meng et al, 2009) which may not be effective and less energy efficient. Tackling the fouling remains one of the major challenges to expand its application and significantly improve its general acceptance by industries.…”
