“…2014). ZnO is one of the most versatile materials, typical bulk uses of ZnO are as an additive in the production of diverse materials, such as plastics, ceramics, glass, adhesives, coatings, creams, foods, sunscreens, as well as bactericide and others (Bamiduro et al 2014;Zamiri et al 2012;Pérez-Sicairos et al 2016). The importance of ZnO arises from its properties of nanostructured forms of this Iniestra-Galindo et al/ Revista Mexicana de Ingeniería Química Vol.…”

Commercial seawater reverse osmosis (SWRO) membranes were coated with iron nanoparticles (FeNPs) and biofouled with a bacterium strain isolated from the Sea of Cortez, Mexico. This strain was selected and characterized, as it was the only cultivable strain in pretreated seawater. Molecular identification of the strain showed that it belongs to Bacillus halotolerans MCC1. This strain was Gram positive with spore production, and was susceptible to Fe +2 toxicity with a minimum inhibitory concentration of 1.8 g L −1 . Its biofouling potential on both uncoated and FeNP coated reverse osmosis (RO) membranes was measured via biofilm layer thickness, total cell count, optical density and organic matter. The FeNP-coated RO membrane presented a significant reduction in biofilm cake layer thickness (>90%), total cells (>67%), optical density (>42%) and organic matter (>92%) with respect to an uncoated commercial membrane. Thus, Bacillus halotolerans MCC1 shows great potential to biofoul RO membranes as it can pass through ultrafiltration membranes due to its spore producing ability; nonetheless, FeNP-coated membranes represent a potential alternative to mitigate RO membrane biofouling.
