Effect of salinity and temperature on the extraction of extracellular polymeric substances from an anaerobic sludge and fouling in submerged hollow fibre membranes

The results of the characterisation of anaerobic sludge-derived extracellular polymeric substances (EPS) under different extraction conditions and their effects on the fouling in submerged hollow fibre membranes are presented. A wide range of EPS extraction results was obtained depending on the extr...
