Ceramic membrane technique was a new and efficient technology for wastewater treatment and used more and more widely in recent years. Controlling membrane fouling was the key method to ensure the efficient and stable operation of ceramic membrane. In this paper, the causes, influencing factors and control methods of ceramic membrane fouling were summarized. As one of the most effective means to control membrane fouling, several common membrane cleaning methods, such as physical cleaning, chemical cleaning, ultrasonic cleaning and combined cleaning, were introduced. And the application of ceramic membrane cleaning was presented too. Then the future directions for ceramic membrane techniquresearching was prospected.
