Back-diffusion of inert gases from the bulk liquid and biofilm into the lumen of the membrane can be detrimental to MBfR performance, though the extent of gas back-diffusion and its effect on denitrification is highly interdependent upon substrate concentrations, membrane properties, and biofilm thickness. cache/xw42n586h4b.txt txt/xw42n586h4b.txt
