Abstract: The wastewater from fermentation in the
production of antibiotics was treated by using a submerged membrane
bioreactor (SMBR) and the performance of the membrane during the
operation of the SMBR was studied. The results of the study showed
that the filtration effect of the memhrane enabled the concentration
of the activated sludge in the reactor to reach l5 g/L and the CODcr
removal rate to reach 86% respectively. A resis-tance-in-series
(RIS) model was employed to preliminarily study the resuIt of the
on-line sponge cleaning. lt is believed that on-line sponge cleaning
is of active and practical significance in restoring the membrane
permeability and preventing the accumulation of various resistance
factors. Key words: wastewater from antibiotics
production; wastewatertreatment. membrane bioreactor; membrane
fouling; membrane cleaning
