Anaerobic Fluidized Bed Membrane Bioreactors for the Treatment of Domestic Wastewater

Abstract: The anaerobic fluidized bed membrane bioreactor (AFMBR) is a new energy-neutral methanogenic biological treatment system that combines an anaerobic fluidized bed reactor (AFBR) and internal membranes. It is unique in that the fluidized granular particles, while serving as a surface for active biofilm attachment, rub against membrane surfaces, resulting in a reduction in fouling with low energy expenditure. Fluidized particles denser than water permit good mass transfer, and allow for the maintenance of a large… Show more

“…In SAF-MBR 1.0, the AFBR discharges to a particle-sparged membrane bioreactor (P-MBR), in which fluidized granular activated carbon (GAC) functions as both a biocarrier of slow-growing microorganisms (inside the GAC pores) and as a scouring agent for cleansing of membranes and prevention of biofouling. 21,22,24,25 This strategy successfully controlled membrane biofouling in a pilot-scale SAF-MBR, 21,26 but also led to particle abrasion and damage of the polymeric membranes. 27 As noted by Shin et al , 27 the GAC used in the P-MBR contained two size fractions – one at 1.18–1.4 mm (29%) and a second at 1.70–4.00 mm (47%).…”

“…[131]. Compared to biogas jet reactors, particle jet reactors have relatively low energy consumption and can control membrane fouling well[131][134]. The rotating membrane creates turbulent flow on the membrane surface through the rotation of the membrane module itself, which slows down the formation of the pollution layer on the membrane surface.…”
