Abstract
Many WWTPs fitted with MBR technology have experienced severe difficulties during the commissioning and start up phases of the Project, specifically because operational problems are normally manifested as failure to meet the hydraulic load, rather than achieve the required level of purification.
This article focuses in the efforts applied to optimize the start up of the Arenales del Sol WWTP, which has a submerged MBR system fitted with flat sheet (FS) ultrafiltration membranes, with an average treatment capacity of 10.000 m3/d (10 MLD).
