Clark, Mark M. Howe, Kerry James 2015-09-25T21:03:10Z 2015-09-25T21:03:10Z 10000-01-01 2001 2001 This research accomplished two significant goals with important implications for the water treatment industry. First, an understanding of the conditions under which coagulation can improve membrane performance has been developed. Improved understanding of this relationship allows microfiltration and ultrafiltration to be applied to a wider variety of water treatment situations. In situations where coagulation can reduce membrane fouling, overall treatment costs may be reduced. Second, the experimental results have been used to develop a theoretical explanation for membrane fouling by natural waters. This theory can guide future research, which may identify methods to relate raw water quality to membrane performance or techniques to reduce fouling and improve overall membrane treatment effectiveness.
