The results showed dissolved organic carbon （DOC） and UV254 removals by the UF with in-line coagulation at pH 7 were increased from 28% to 53% and 40% to 78% in comparison with direct UF treatment respectively. At the same time, the analysis of high performance liquid chromatography showed that UF with coagulation had significant improvement of removal of humic acid with molecular weights less than 6000 Da in particular. Compared to direct UF, the in-line coagulation UF also kept more constant permeate flux and very slight increase oftransmembrane pressure during a filtration circle. Two typical membrane fouling models were used by inducing two coefficients Kc and Kp corresponding to cake filtration model and pore narrowing model respectively. It was found that membrane fouling by pore-narrowing effect was effectively alleviated and that by cake-filtration was much decreased by in-line coagulation. Under the condition of coagulation prior to ultrafiltration at pH 7, the cake layer formed on the membrane surface became thicker, but the membrane filtration resistance was lower than that at pH 5 with the extension of operation time.展开更多

The optimal membrane molecular weight cut-off （MWCO） was selected as 10 ku upon retaining ratios of protein and oligosaccharides as well as the variation of permeate flux. The effects of pretreatment strategy and operating conditions, such as transmembrane pressure （TMP）, feed pH and velocity on flux were studied. According to the experimental result, the optimal operating conditions were determined as temperature 45 ℃, pH 4.5, TMP 0.2 MPa and feed velocity 10 L·s^-1. In addition, the permeate flux recovery by pure water backflushing and chemical cleaning was investigated. The experimental result showed that backflushing with pure water could only recover the lost permeate flux by 30%, and the decrease of backflushing interval was helpful in improving UF permeate productivity. Chemical cleaning test revealed that the combination of sodium hydroxide and EDTA was an ideal agent for cleaning the fouled membranes.展开更多
