Abstract
A lab‐scale experiment was performed using two different pore‐size ultrafiltration membranes to investigate the removal efficiency of Tomato Mosaic Virus (ToMV), retainability of pollutant and nutrients, and flow characteristics. From the experiment, it may be concluded that ultrafiltration can be used effectively to eliminate ToMV. Tests with a 30K pore‐size ultrafiltration membrane achieved 99% virus removal efficiency and a 5K membrane practically removed 100% of the virus in greenhouse wastewater. Nutrient analysis indicated that all the essential nutrients could be retained and re‐utilized.
