The aim of this paper was to study the membrane fouling phenomena by eutrophic water using Microcystis aeruginosa under various operational conditions (flux and air flow rate) and solution chemistry (pH). All the experiments were performed in a lab scale employing the polyvinyl chloride ultrafiltrat...
