Membrane treatment is now a fundamental component of water reuse schemes. Low pressure micro and ultrafiltration (MF/UF) membranes are widely used as part of reuse schemes to filter secondary or tertiary effluent directly, or are submerged in activated sludge in membrane bioreactors (MBRs) to replace clarification.
High pressure reverse osmosis (RO) membranes are used to remove salt and act as a broad spectrum barrier to chemicals of concern. MF/UF membranes, MBRs and RO membranes also contribute to protection of public health by removing pathogenic microorganisms.
Critical control points and monitoring strategies are defined for each treatment process to assure that pathogen removal is achieved in water reuse. There are a number of ongoing research initiatives to improve the understanding of pathogen removal in MBRs to support their application in water reuse.
This session will comprise 3 modules and focus on:
1 – Fundamentals of low and high pressure membrane filtration as well as biological treatment,
2 – Applying critical control points for monitoring pathogen removal performance of membrane systems including, MF/UF, MBRs and RO.
3 – Current innovations supporting the application of MBRs for water reuse.
At the end, a live Q&A will be facilitated with membrane filtration experts.
The session was recorded during CWEA's 2020 Virtual Annual Conference and Expo.

For programs that are one hour or less: to receive your contact hours for viewing the program, please note the one (1) attention check code that will be displayed during the program in the top left or right corner of the presentation for approximately 90 seconds. Please enter this code in the "Attention Check Code" component under the "Contents" tab.
For programs that are more than one hour: to receive your contact hours for viewing the program, two (2) different attention check codes that will be displayed at two different points during the program in the top left or right corner of the presentation for approximately 90 seconds. Please enter these codes as 1st attention check code – 2nd attention check code (XXXX-XXXX) in the "Attention Check Code" component under the "Contents" tab.
Once you have entered the correct attendance check code(s), you will be able to create and download an electronic "Certificate of Completion" under the "Contents" tab.
