Study on operating flux of plate ceramic membrane treating municipal secondary effluent of WWTP

Abstract

In recent years, plate ceramic membrane has been applied in the field of water and wastewater treatment successfully, because of its unique advantages. As an important parameter which can characterize properties of membrane, the water flux and critical flux of plate ceramic membrane treating municipal secondary effluent of Wastewater Treatment Plant(WWTP) were studied in this paper. And the flux change characteristics under different membrane pressure were obtained. The experimental results laid foundation for further exploring of mechanism of membrane fouling and related control techniques, and provided references for expanded application of plate ceramic membrane in wastewater reuse.
