Tannic acid treatment to deter microbial biofouling in flow cell system and on RO membrane in drip flow reactor

Membrane biofouling is a major obstacle, which considerably affects membrane performance and shortens membrane life span. In the present study, the biofouling prevention potential of the tannic acid (TA) was tested on single and mixed species culture under flow conditions in flow cell and on reverse...
