Experimental variation of the differential initial pressure drop gradients as a function of inlet feed velocity along with the porosity of channels integrated with the different spacers before the biofouling growth (A), comparison of their corresponding experimental and numerical differential pressure drop gradients at average inlet feed velocity of U0 = 0.185 m/s (B).
