Water treatment
Nanofiltration membranes (NF) are considered and used extensively in seawater softening, food, textile, and mining industries for the removal of di-and multi-valents to increase RO lifetime by decreasing fouling rates, and chemical cleaning intervals. In this work, blend membranes of...Read more

Topic:
Water treatment
As an obstacle against the widespread application of membranes in larger scales, fouling via different materials could cause a severe decline in water permeation. Herein, we fabricated a novel mechanically-stable electro-conductive membrane by simple pressure-assisted laminating of reduced Graphene...Read more
Synthesis of Fe3O4-Ag Nanocomposite and Their Performance as Surface Modifiers for TiO2 Membranes in Treating Oily Wastewater
Aboulella A., Wadi V., Naddeo V., Banat F., (Corresponding) Hasan S.
Topic:
Water treatment
Membrane technology has shown extraordinary performance in treating oily wastewater. Yet, more research is focused towards enhancing the performance of the separation process. In this work, Fe3O4-Ag composite nanoparticles (NPs) were synthesized using the co-precipitation technique and applied on...Read more
Continuous flow hydrodechlorination for micropollutants removal using an innovative Pd-based Catalytic Membrane Reactor

Topic:
Water treatment
The aim of this work is to develop a Pd-based Catalytic Membrane Reactor (Pd/CMR) for its application in organochlorinated micropollutants removal by hydrodechlorination (HDC). The external surface of a Al2O3 membrane was homogeneously decorated by Pd nanoparticles (0.2% wt.). The Pd/CMR developed...Read more
