title: The Negative Impact of Biofouling Factor of Water Treatment Process at Ceyranbatan Water Treatment Plant Complex
abstract: Biofouling in water treatment systems is considered a serious technological challenge. The accumulation of various types of microorganisms, algae, and their residues on surfaces significantly reduces the efficiency of pipelines, various types of filters, and membrane systems. These conditions lead to increased hydraulic resistance (primarily in filtration systems) and, consequently, increased energy consumption. Biofouling also negatively impacts the quality of purified water. Various chemical,
