Investigations of MBR hydrodynamics have occurred at many different scales, ranging from examination of shear stress at the membrane surface to RTD analysis of the whole MBR . Cui et al . ( 2003 ) examined the entire membrane filtration vessel using CFD and velocity measurements, while Brannock et al . ( 2007 ) examined the entire MBR using tracer study experiments and RTD analysis.
