NOM Gels as Membrane Foulants: Formation, Properties, and Interactions with Particles

0504420本杰明目前还没有对NOM在水处理过程中如何污染膜以及NOM如何与各种颗粒相互作用而污染膜的基本了解。PI提出了一系列精心设计的实验来研究NOM对膜的污染。通过回答关于凝胶层形成及其与污垢的关系的五个假设，可以预期确定减少污垢的操作条件。

0504420 Benjamin Currently there is not a fundamental understanding of how NOM fouls membranes during water treatment and how NOM interacts with various particles to foul membranes. The PI proposes a series of well-conceived experiments to investigate membrane fouling by NOMs. Through answering the five hypotheses posed about NOM gell formation and its relationship to fouling, it is anticipated that operating conditions to reduce fouling can be identified.
