Insights on fouling development and characteristics during different fouling stages between a novel vibrating MBR and an air-sparging MBR for domestic wastewater treatment

•VMBR enabled 70% lower fouling rates than ASMBR in each fouling stage.•Colloid and SMP were the key organics in the cake layer and reduced by VMBR.•Reversible and irreversible fouling were simultaneously alleviated in VMBR.•Fouling constituents: aromatic protein > soluble microbial products >...
