A review on membrane fouling: membrane modification
Desalination and Water Treatment, 2021 Membrane separation has become a prevalent technique in water and wastewater treatment. However, fouling is still the most challenging issue in case of membranes. Fouling causes flux decline, loss in rejection performance, increased energy consumption, etc. Different modification techniques have been applied to mitigate fouling on the membrane surface.
