Impact of the pulsed voltage input and the electrode spacing on the enhancement of the permeate flux in a dielectrophoresis based anti-fouling system for a submerged membrane bioreactor

摘要

A new electrode configuration based on dielectrophoresis (DEP) for a Submerged Membrane Bioreactors was suggested. The intensification of the permeate flux with the new system was examined experimentally using a pulsed DEP of 10 s on and 15 s off.
