Abstract

When treating a typical mustard wastewater by hybrid membrane bioreactor, membrane fouling was unavoidable. To investigate this problem, an experimental study was carried out to compare the performances of the aerobic membrane bioreactor and anoxic/aerobic membrane bioreactor. Membrane cleaning experiments were studied as well. The results showed that, the initial flux of the two bioreactor was 17.6 and 15.4 L/m2 h and the final flux was 15.4 and 8.3 L/m2 h, respectively. In addition, their flux tended to be steady at 30 and 65 min, respectively. Therefore, the aerobic membrane bioreactor has a relative efficient operation. Soaking in 0.5 % hydrochloric acid following 0.5 % sodium hypochlorite could make the flux recovered with 82 % and it was the mosteffective way of membrane cleaning.
