Funded Activity Summary
Floc Characteristics in Sheared Systems: Implications to Low Pressure Membrane Filtration in Water Treatment. In this project, we examine the effect of coagulant choice and coagulation conditions on the nature of the flocs formed in drinking water treatment using submerged membrane systems and on the extent of fouling, contaminant removal and difficulties in backwash. We will develop both underpinning knowledge and operational protocols that will assist in improving the efficiency and thus reducing the operating costs of submerged membrane water systems. The outcomes of this project will assist our industry partner in developing more cost effective water treatment processes in Australia which will, in turn, assist in increasing market share in the Asian region.Funded Activity Details
