Abstract
A surveillance on effluent water and a water quality standard of effluent water are being tightened. As the turbidity level is high at a water treatment plant, the efficiency of a effluent water treatment plant decreases. Therefore, it is difficult to manage water quality. In this study, the membrane filtration process for effluent water treatment was evaluated. When the UV254 of supernatant in the thickener was high, the trans-membrane pressure increased. When the coagulant was injected, the trans-membrane pressure decreased. The trans-membrane pressure decreased more when the supernatant in the thickener was treated mixing with backwash waste than when the supernatant in the thickener was treated singly. The trans-membrane pressure reached the limit in the short time at flux of 1.5 m/day. However, it was possible to operate the process for a long period at flux of 0.5 m/day. When the particles in the effluent water are smaller than the membrane pore, irreversible membrane fouling occurred. It lead to increase the trans-membrane pressure rapidly.
