Sewage can become a valuable source if its treatment is re-oriented for recovery. An anaerobic forward osmosis membrane bioreactor (AnOMBR) was developed for real municipal sewage treatment to investigate performance, biogas production, flux change and mixed liquor characteristics. The AnOMBR had a good treatment capacity with removal ratio of chemical oxygen demand, ammonia nitrogen, total nitrogen and total phosphorus more than 96%, 88%, 89% and almost 100%. Although high DS concentration increased the initial flux, it caused rapid decline and poor recoverability of FO membrane flux. Low DS concentration led to too long hydraulic retention time, thus resulting in a low reactor efficiency. Additionally, it was observed that salt, protein, polysaccharide and humic acid were all accumulated in the reactor, which was not conducive to stable long-term operation. Based on the characteristics of membrane fouling, salt accumulation and AnOMBR performance, the optimal DS of 1 M NaCl solution was selected.
