Membrane fouling caused by natural organic matter (NOM) in water is a pressing problem. To address this, heated aluminum oxide particles (HAOPs) have been used as dynamic membranes pre-deposited onto the primary membrane to effectively remove NOM and thereby significantly diminish the fouling potent...
