Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We examined an application of a new washing method with hypochlorite and nanobubble for control of combined fouling by biofilm formation and inorganic particle accumulation on reverse osmosis (RO) membrane in this study. Nanobubble with less than 1 μm of bubble diameter can intrude within the gap of the biofilm or the deposits on the membrane and makes detachment improved during simultaneous chlorine washing. The washing effect of chlorine with nanobubble washing in controlling of the combined fouling was twice higher than that of chlorine without nanobubble washing. Chlorine with nanobubble washing detached the combined foulant due to an improved floatability. Furthermore, it was clarified that the density of the combined foulant influenced the fouling control.
