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:
Wastewater treatment
A fully biobased layer-by-layer deposition method, containing kraft lignin and chitosan as the polyelectrolytes, was employed to improve the anti-fouling properties of polyethersulfone membrane. Results revealed that the water in air contact angle decreased from 70° ± 2° for the pristine membrane...Read more
Synthesis of self-assembled graphene oxide (GO)/manganese oxide (MnO2) sulfonated-polyethersulfone (SPES) membranes for heavy metal removal from wastewater

Topic:
Wastewater treatment
As the 21st century continues, water scarcity remains a significant burden to overcome in many regions. The treatment of industrial wastewater has great potential in providing adequate quantities of freshwater. To ensure safe usage of this water, heavy metal ions must be removed to avoid their...Read more
