In this work, the removal of hazardous aromatic compounds was investigated in two types of membrane bioreactors (MBRs), based on cross-flow and semi dead-end filtration systems. BTEX and PAH were efficiently eliminated from wastewater during treatment via a membrane bioreactor (90-99.9%) but non-biotic processes, i.e. volatilisation and sorption, contributed significantly. The semi dead-end MBR showed slightly better removal efficiencies than the cross-flow MBR. However, non-biotic processes were more significant in the first process and, finally, degradation rates were higher in the cross-flow MBR. Higher degradation rates were explained by a higher bio-availability of pollutants. Differences in shear stress imposed in cross-flow and semi dead-end filtration systems radically modify the sludge morphology. High shear stress (cross-flow filtration) generates dispersed bacteria and larger quantities of dissolved and colloidal matter. Sorption of hydrophobic compounds (PAHs) on suspended solid was less marked in disaggregated sludge. The results suggest new strategies for improving micro-pollutant degradation in MBRs.
