In this paper the effects of operating conditions of the membrane bioreactor (MBR) treating mustard tuber wastewater with 7% of salinity (calculated as NaCl) on membrane fouling rate was investigated , and the operating conditions of the reactor was optimized. With the increasing rate of filtration resistance with the cumulative permeate volume(Kv)used to characterize the membrane fouling rate, the study designed three sets of single- factor experiments to investigate the effects of suction suspended time (t), aeration intensity (UGr) and transmembrane pressure (ΔP) on Kv. The result showed that with increasing of t, UGr and ΔP, KV decreased at first and then increased, and t, UGr and ΔP had optimal values. With response surface methodology(RSM),the MBR operating conditions were optimized,and the optimal conditions was as follows: t = 2min, UGr = 12m3m-2h-1 and ΔP = 5KPa. Through analysis of the response surface plots, interactions between the operating conditions were analyzed, and a conclusion was drawn that interaction between t and UGr was strong, and so was interaction between UGr and ΔP, but the interaction between t and ΔP was not significant.
