Profiling of Microbial Communities, Antibiotic Resistance, Functional Genes, and Biodegradable Dissolved Organic Carbon in a Carbon-Based Potable Water Reuse System
Water reuse has become a promising alternative to alleviate stress on conventional freshwater resources in the face of population growth, sea level rise, source water depletion, eutrophication of water bodies, and climate change. Potable water reuse intentionally looks to purify wastewater effluent …

Investigation of Membrane Fouling and Cleaning in Direct Contact Membrane Distillation of Municipal Wastewater
Municipal wastewater discharge to the environment is generally subject to regulations established under the Clean Water Act. Though the water is highly treated it is not suitable for human consumption. Increased interest in water reuse for potable supply introduces concern about trace constituents …

Effect of solids retention time in membrane bioreactors on reverse osmosis membrane fouling
As sources of clean fresh water diminish, there is an increasing interest in water reuse. Membrane bioreactors (MBRs) are commonly used in wastewater treatment plants, though reuse of treated wastewater for potable purposes requires more advanced treatment. Reverse osmosis (RO), a water treatment …
