The effects of damaged cells on biofouling formation in a reverse osmosis (RO) membrane system were investigated. Using Pseudomonas aeruginosa PAO1 as a model bacterium, damaged cells were artificially made by autoclaving at 121°C for 15min, resulting in 97% dead cells and 3% live cells. The physiological characteristics of damaged cells were analyzed by comparing the cell wall hydrophobicity, surface...
This study examines the effects of biofouling on the electrochemical properties of cation exchange membranes (CEMs), such as membrane electrical resistance (MER), specific proton conductivity (SC), and ion transport number (t + ), in addition to on microbial fuel cell (MFC) performance. CEM biofouling using a 15.5±4.6μm biofilm was found to slightly increase the MER from 15.65Ωcm 2 ...
