Excerpt

This chapter gives a general introduction to membrane science and technology, and begins with the definition of terms and provides a description of membrane processes currently implemented in different fields. Specifically, the Membrane Bioreactor (MBR) technology is introduced and followed by a short overview of the historical development and different configuration of MBRs. Finally, the advantages and disadvantages of membrane bioreactors are discussed. To sum up, MBR acts an efficient, reliable and cost-effective technology that deals excellently with the growing demands for treating wastewater, which can then be returned to the hydrological cycle without any adverse effects. …
