MEMBRANE FILTERS FOR WATER AND WASTEWATER TREATMENT AND METHOD OF PRODUCING THE SAME

The present disclosure relates to a membrane filter for water and wastewater treatment including a membrane filter, hydrophilic polymers formed on the membrane filter; and quorum quenching microorganisms cross-linked with the membrane filter by the hydrophilic polymer. The quorum quenching microorganisms are attached to the surface of the membrane filter for water and wastewater treatment, resulting in a higher initial permeation pressure than a conventional membrane, but the quorum quenching microorganisms may effectively prevent the phenomenon of quorum sensing, allowing the formation of a biofilm, thereby improving the life of the membrane filter for water and wastewater treatment.
