A review on anaerobic membrane bioreactors (AnMBRs) focused on modelling and control aspects

Abstract

[EN] The use of anaerobic membrane bioreactor technology (AnMBR) is rapidly expanding. However, depending on the application, AnMBR design and operation is not fully mature, and needs further research to optimize process efficiency and enhance applicability. This paper reviews state-of-the-art of AnMBR focusing on modelling and control aspects. Quantitative environmental and economic evaluation has demonstrated substantial advantages in application of AnMBR to domestic wastewater treatment, but detailed modelling is less mature. While anaerobic process modelling is generally mature, more work is needed on integrated models which include coupling between membrane performance (including fouling) and the biological process. This should include microbial factors, which are important to generation of specific foulants such as soluble and particulate inert organics. Mature and well-established control tools, including better feedback control strategies are also required for both the process, and for fouling control. This work has been carried out under the umbrella of the Task Group on Membrane Bioreactor Modelling and Control of the International Water Association (IWA) (http://www.iwa-network.org/groups/membrane-bioreactor-modelling-and-control/).
