PERFORMANCE EVALUATION OF MEMBRANE BIOREACTOR TECHNOLOGY FOR TREATMENT OF INDUSTRIAL WASTEWATER: A REVIEW

Membrane Bioreactor (MBR) is adevelopingwastewater treatment process which utilizesbenefits of membrane filtration. Owing to the flexibility, strength and consistency, MBR technology is extensively acceptance in field of wastewater treatment. Risingindustrial development in developingcountries like India, Conventional universal technologies are projected to be replaced by MBR systems in the recent years, due to low operation and maintenance costs of MBR systems. This review article represents a comprehensive literature survey for various industrial wastewater treatment by using membrane bioreactor technology (MBR) with speciallyfocused on selection of membrane, configuration of membrane and potential applications of MBR technology in industrial wastewater treatment, From the present review literature, it reveals that, MBR represents a competent and cost effective process that handles excellently with the rising needs for transforming wastewater into clean water that can be give back to the environment without harmful effects
