Abstract
The obtained membrane was used to treat cuttlefish effluents generated from the conditioning seawater products industry. These industries consume a great amount of water. In Sfax (Tunisia), about 1000 m3/day are discharged in the littoral. Cross-flow microfiltration was carried out then, in order to reduce the turbidity and chemical oxygen demand (COD). The result showed a filtration flux of 125 l/h m2 and a high retention of turbidity (99%), colour and COD (92%).
