Funded Activity Summary

Membranes coupled with physico-chemcial treatment in water reuse: New hybrid systems development and fouling assessment. This project will be useful to sewage treatment systems prevalent in the coastal areas of NSW and Queensland and the interior parts of Northern Territory with isolated communities. Membrane processes are a sustainable technology in wastewater treatment for reuse. The novel pre-treatment and fouling assessment protocol proposed in this study are the keys for the cost-effective and energy-efficient operation and testing of membrane processes. This project will strengthen research links between Australian and European universities, through the development of an innovative pre-treatment technology. The technology is of direct benefit to reuse applications in Australia and has significant export potential.
