Membrane biofouling and scaling in forward osmosis membrane bioreactor

open access: yes, 2012
The forward osmosis membrane bioreactor (FOMBR) has received much attention recently. Due to the high rejection nature of FO membranes, the biomass, dissolved organic and inorganic compounds retained in the bioreactor could cause membrane fouling by ...

Modeling of NF/RO membrane fouling and flux decline using real-time observations

open access: yes, 2019
Many numerical models for membrane filtration have been developed to explain and predict fouling mechanisms. The models can simulate flux decline, transmembrane pressure increase, and fouling thickness based on theoretical equations.

Ear - Otolithic Membrane

open access: yes
At higher power, identify the hair & supporting cells, the otolithic membrane and the otoliths. Shifting of the otoliths, which are composed mainly of calcium carbonate crystals, causes bending of hair cell cilia.

Tectorial Membrane and Otolithic Membrane of Pigeon Inner Ear. A Scanning Electron Microscope Study

open access: yesArchivum histologicum japonicum, 1973
The tectorial membrane and otolithic membrane of pigeon inner ear were observed by scanning electron microscopy. Special attention was paid to the possible connection of sensory cells to the membranes.1. Each hair bundle of the sensory cells of the cochlea was enclosed in a cavity on the under side of the tectorial membrane, the longest hairs being ...

THE MORPHOLOGICAL AND HISTOCHEMICAL STUDIES ON THE OTOLITH MEMBRANE OF THE GUINEA-PIG MACULA UTRICULI

open access: yesNippon Jibiinkoka Gakkai Kaiho, 1963
Morphological and histochemical observations were made of the otolith membrane of the macula utriculi in normal guineapigs.The influences of fixatives upon the structure of the otolith membrane were observed with several kinds of fixatives.The histochemical stainings were mainly applied to identify the acid mucopolysaccharides. Several of main findings

Piezoelectric reverse osmosis (RO) membrane: fabrication and anti-fouling effect

open access: yes
In this study, a novel piezoelectric RO membrane with vibrating mechanism when exposed to an electric field was developed. The vibration due to the piezoelectric effect can disturb the concentration polarization layer on the membrane surface and minimize
