The polyethersulfone (PES) membranes were applied for separation of effluents generated during car washing. This
wastewater contained several compounds (oil and grease, surfactants, solids, nitrogen, and phosphorus) caused the
membrane fouling, which reduced water transport across the membrane wall. In the present work, the possibility of applying alkaline washing agents for chemical cleaning fouled PES membranes were studied.
