Fe(II)/UV/chlorine was promoted as a pretreatment strategy for UF membrane to mitigate membrane fouling induced from different organic fractions. This treatment could be an emerging alternative prior to UF process attributed to the coupled role of oxidation and coagulation. To obtain a comprehensive...
