Abstract

Fresh water resources are depleting day by day and many regions in the world have scarce water resources, thus focus has shifted toward water recycling, recovery and reuse. With increase of industrial development, reuse of wastewater is becoming a common practice by sifting from conventional technologies to MBR systems due to low operation and maintenance costs of Membrane Bio reactor. Membrane bioreactor is a combination of conventional activated sludge process (ASP) and membrane separation technology. Membrane Bioreactor (MBR) is a promising technology for treatment of municipal and industrial waste water which represents a cost effective process andhandles excellently with the rising needs for converting wastewater into clean water that can be given back to environment without harmful effects. This review article represents on membrane selection, Configurations, Membrane Fouling, Operating parameters and Biological performances for waste water treatment.
