Abstract

In membrane bioreactor (MBR), activated sludge degrade the biological component and membrane process separate this bacterial flocks as well the suspended solids. However, membrane fouling is one of the major issues in MBR. In this review, composite membrane used in MBR to overcome fouling is discussed. It is classified into membrane containing carbon and noncarbon materials. Introducing graphene, graphene oxide (GO) and carbon nanotubes or their modified part into pristine membrane enhance hydrophilicity of the composite membrane. Inorganic materials like silicon dioxide (SiO2) or titanium dioxide (TiO2) are also incorporated for preparing composite membrane to increase its water flux.

막 생물 반응기(MBR)에서, 활성화 된 슬러지는 생물학적 성분을 분해하고 막 공정은 이 부유 물질인 박테리아를 분리시킨다. 그러나 MBR에서의 주요 문제는 '막 오염'이다. 이 리뷰에서는 '막 오염'을 극복하기 위하여 제시된 '복합막'을 논의하고 있다. '복합막'은 탄소 또는 비탄소 재료 포함하는 막으로 분류할 수 있다. 이 복합막의 친수성은 그래핀, 산화그래핀(GO) 및 탄소 나노 튜브 또는 그들의 변형 된 부분을 깨끗한 막에 도입시킬 때 향상된다. 이산화규소(SiO2) 또는 이산화티타늄(TiO2)과 같은 무기 물질 또한 막의 물 흐름을 증가시키기 위해 복합막 형성에 통합된다.
