Transparetn Exopolymer Particles (TEP) Production Trends of Two Marine Bacteria: Pseudidiomarina Homiensis and Pseudoalteromonas Atlantica
In this paper, biopolymer produced by marine bacteria was monitored over time to determine the TEP production coefficient. During the experiment, cultured marine bacteria was incubated in a 1 liter flask under room temperature with shaking. The cultured marine bacteria was allowed to grow in the flask for 7 days. Water samples were taken from the 1...
Reduction in Organic Compound Concentrations Using Well Intakes from SWRO Facilities in the Caribbean and the Red Sea of Saudi Arabia
Subsurface intake systems are generally believed to deliver higher quality of feed water compared to open-ocean intake systems. Some new research results are reported from several desalination plants; two plants located on the Red Sea and one on the Caribbean Sea. These facilities were assessed to compare the feedwater fouling potential of the open...
Bacterial TEP Fouling on RO Membranes and Visualization of Agglutination between Bacterial TEP and Bacteria
Transparent-exopolymer-particles (TEP) are reported as a significant contributor to organic fouling of low pressure membranes and biofouling of RO membranes. TEP-like substances are generally synthesised from algae and bacteria, but most research only investigates algal TEP instead of bacterial TEP. Results show bacterial mixed TEP caused severe fo...
Bio-methane production variation under different draw solute reverse diffusions in an anaerobic digester simulated for FO-AnMBR
This study was conducted to investigate the relationship among the reverse diffusion of fertilizer draw solute, bacteria community and bio-methane production rate in the FDFO-AnMBR system. Three fertilizers were evaluated in this study, namely KCl, KNO3 and KH2PO4. Results showed that bio-methane production decreased with the increase in reverse fe...
