Sorption of 2,4,6-trichlorophenol by bacillus subtilis
Article Abstract:
Batch modelling experiments of Bacillus subtilis sorption rates of 2,4,6 trichlorophenol (TCP) reveal that the devised model provides adequate description of sorption below pH 8 but tends to overpredict sorption rates above 8 pH. The thermodynamic model may incorporate stability constants that describe how negative and neutral TCP form 1:1 surface complexes with neutral bacterial hydroxyl to predict TCP movement in complex systems.

Modeling and experimental verification of pilot-scale hollow fiber, direct flow microfiltration with periodic backwashing
Article Abstract:
A mechanistic model was developed to demonstrate direct flow microfiltration (MF) and one which identify the factors that govern MF performance in relation to a statistical curve-fitting procedure that is often utilized to determine chemical cleaning intervals at pilot-scale. The theoretical approach to MF fouling incorporated several factors including fundamental feed water, membrane, and cake characteristics.
