A new concept of a rotating membrane module in a membrane bioreactor (MBR) system was tested for its effect on oxygen transfer in clean water and wastewater. The membrane module consists of horizontally aligned hollow fibres connected to the vertically positioned permeate tube which rotates. The results indicated that oxygen transfer can be improved by up to 50% at the highest applied rotational speed (50 rpm) and that the additional energy demand required for the rotation can be compensated by the enhanced oxygen transfer. However, at the highest rotational speed (50 rpm), the fine bubbles bypassed the MBR module, and, consequently, could not contribute to any cleaning effect. The α-factors at different rotational speeds showed similar results. This indicates that the depletion was caused neither by surfactants nor by viscosity phenomena but rather by the floc/solid holdup of the sludge.
