Background: The purpose of this study was to investigate the efficiency of flat sheet membrane bioreactor (FS-MBR) in BOD5 and COD removal of Isfahan south municipal wastewater treatment plant. Methods: In this study a submerged FS-MBR, with 140 liters volume was fed using microfiltration membrane (MF) during 109 days and hydraulic retention time of 20 hours. Findings: The MBR application in MLSS concentration of 7800 mg/L achieved an average efficiency removal of 95% and 99 % in COD and BOD5, respectively. Conclusion: It is concluded that FS-MBR could be used in the large scales of municipal wastewater treatment plants due to the removal effluent high quality and the removal of the COD, BOD5 in accordance with effluent discharge standards.
