A membrane bioreactor (MBR) with sludge retention time (SRT) of 300 days was maintained for over 2 years. Polypropylene microfiltration (MF) membrane with pore size of 0.2 was used in the MBR system. The fouling behaviors of various sludge fractions from the MBR were studied and sub-divided resista...
