  Key points for daily maintenance of MBR membrane modules

  In order to ensure the stable operation and extend the service life of MBR membrane modules, routine maintenance is essential. The following are several key points for daily maintenance of MBR membrane modules:

  1. Regular backwashing

  Depending on the degree of membrane fouling, backwash the membrane module 1-2 times a day

  Backwashing can remove reversible pollutants on the membrane surface and restore flux

  Backwash frequency and time need to be adjusted according to actual conditions

  2. Chemical cleaning

  Perform chemical cleaning every 2-4 weeks to remove difficult-to-remove contaminants

  Use oxidant (hypochlorite) to clean organic pollutants

  Use acid or alkali to clean inorganic contaminants (metal oxides, etc.)

  3. Aeration system maintenance

  Regularly check the aeration pipeline to remove blockages, water and mud accumulation

  Check the operating status of the blower to ensure sufficient aeration

  Proper aeration can help slow down membrane fouling

  4. Check membrane integrity

  Regularly check the connection and sealing condition of membrane modules

  If damage is found, replace the damaged membrane element promptly.

  Prevent secondary pollution caused by sewage leakage

  5. Monitor key parameters

  Monitor changes in operating parameters such as membrane flux and transmembrane pressure

  Analyze parameter changes and adjust operating strategies

  Detect abnormalities promptly and take countermeasures
