- Ltd Registered in England and Wales Registered Number : 1072954 Registered office : (2004, background): “Field observations have shown that once biofoulants accumulate on membrane surfaces, initial membrane productivity cannot be restored even after chemical (Li and Elimelech 2004) and concentrated salt (Lee and Elimelech 2007) cleaning of biofouled surfaces.”
- Influence of membrane fouling by (pretreated) surface water on rejection of pharmaceutically active compounds (PhACs) by nanofiltration membranes (2009, background): “Numerous studies on membrane fouling have been conducted [2–19], since the deposition of foulant material on the membrane surface can lead to serious operational problems, such as flux decline or an increase in pressure drop over the membrane installation.”
