Dextran fouling of polyethersulfone ultrafiltration membranesâCauses, extent and consequences [PDF]
, 2007 In a recent paper [Susanto, Ulbricht, J. Membr. Sci. 266 (2005) 132], we showed that dextran does foul polyethersulfone (PES) ultrafiltration (UF) membranes by contact of the solution with the membrane surface without flux through the membrane.

Methods for understanding organic fouling in MBRs
Water Science and Technology, 2004 The identification and quantification of foulants in membrane bioreactors present a major challenge due to their complexity resulting from biomass heterogeneity. Fouling is normally characterised with respect to the critical flux, this being conventionally viewed as being the flux below which a reduction in membrane permeability does not take place ...

Organic and inorganic fouling in heat exchangers – Industrial case study: Analysis of fouling state [PDF]
Applied Energy, 2017 Fouling rates in refinery heat exchangers with mixed organic/inorganic deposits (frequent in practice) are estimated using a comprehensive model-based thermohydraulic methodology combining data-driven measurements analysis with advanced models. An industrial case study for a heat exchanger over 4 years demonstrates the method.
