Influences of acid–base property of membrane on interfacial interactions related with membrane fouling in a membrane bioreactor based on thermodynamic assessment

[Display omitted] •Total interaction energy monotonically decreases with membrane electron donor.•Total interaction energy is marginally affected by membrane electron acceptor.•Membrane electron donor is a reliable indicator predicting membrane fouling.•Fouling control shall improve membrane electro...
