Thesis Topic/Title:
Mainstream Anaerobic Treatment of Municipal Wastewater Using a Hybrid Baffled Membrane Bioreactor
Description
This project aims to investigate the combination of the anaerobic baffled reactor and the submerged anaerobic membrane bioreactor to treat domestic wastewater. By combining both types of reactors and their advantages it is expected that synergistic effects would result in better performance and concurrent energy production. The project aims to investigate and compare the use of microfiltration membrane and forward osmosis membrane.
