Abstract
Notice of Retraction
After careful and considered review of the content of this paper by a duly constituted expert committee, this paper has been found to be in violation of IEEE´s Publication Principles.
We hereby retract the content of this paper. Reasonable effort should be made to remove all past references to this paper.
The presenting author of this paper has the option to appeal this decision by contacting TPII@ieee.org.
This study employed flux-step method to determine the critical flux of MBR system, and the effects of aeration intensity were investigated. The results demonstrated that, for the aeration intensity of 50 and 75 m3/m2.h, the critical flux of MBR was kept at 12L/d. But as the aeration intensity being raised to 100 m3/m2.h, the corresponding critical flux increased to 18L/d. The increase of aeration intensity resulted in higher measure results of critical flux. Higher effective shear role on the surface of membrane produced by higher aeration intensity was regarded as the main affecting factor for the higher critical flux.
