Abstract

Constant flux MF/UF filtration is preferred in real-world applications because it
provides more consistent permeate flow rates than fixed transmembrane pressure studies. Particularly, little is understood about the fouling of ceramic membranes in constant flux filtration modes by nano-sized O/W emulsions. In this study, the effects of emulsion chemistry containing pH, different surfactants, as well as salinity on the alumina and SiC deposited ceramic UF membranes with various physicochemical surface properties in the constant flux mode were compared.
