Biofilm Dynamics in Drinking Water Biofiltration & Downstream Nanofiltration Biofouling
(University of Waterloo, 2018-05-17)Natural organic matter (NOM) is a concern in many surface waters and must be removed by water treatment processes for cost-effective production of safe and aesthetically pleasing drinking water. Biological filtration is ... -
Performance of Biological Filters for Drinking Water Treatment and Their Use for High Pressure Membrane Biofouling Control
(University of Waterloo, 2016-01-18)Biofiltration is a promising green drinking water treatment technology that can reduce the concentration of biodegradable organic matter (BOM) in water. Direct biofiltration or biofiltration without pretreatment (BFwp) ... -
Syntrophic interactions between anode-respiring bacteria and non-anode-respiring bacteria in microbial electrochemical cells
(University of Waterloo, 2015-10-19)Microbial electrochemical cells (MECs), a promising technology for recovering value-added products from waste biomass and wastewater, require syntrophic interactions between anode-respiring bacteria (ARB) and non-ARB for ...
