| Industrial Applicability | By replacing traditional wastewater treatment process with membrane separation technology, high separation efficiencygood quality of discharged water can be achieved. However, the biggest challenge faced in the developing this technology is the fouling of membrane. When membrane fouling occurs, the filtration rate will significantly reduce which in turn increasing the operation costs. With re |
