Study on Oily Wastewater Treatment with Multifunctional Ceramic Membrane

Performance study of ceramic microfiltration membrane for oily wastewater treatment

Cross-flow microfiltration (MF) processes were studied with oily wastewater using a ceramic ( -Al2O3) membrane with 50 nm pore size. The nfluence of parameters such as transmembrane pressure (TMP), cross-flow velocity (CFV), oil concentration in feed, pH and salt concentration n the separation behaviors were investigated by the measurements of permeate flux, total organic carbon (TOC) removal e...

Performance evaluation of mullite ceramic membrane for oily wastewater treatment using response surface methodology based on Box-Behnken design

Nowadays, oily wastewater is increasing along with the growth of various industries. So, wastewater treatment is necessary in order to protect the environment. In this study, a mullite ceramic membrane was prepared. Then, oily wastewater treatment with 200 mg L-1 concentration was investigated by the response surface methodology based on Box-Behnken design (BBD) using Design-Expert 7...

Chemical Cleaning of Utafiltration Membrane after Treatment of Oily Wastewater

Zwitterion Embedded Thin Film Composite Membrane for Oily Wastewater Treatment

The recent development in oil and gas industry increases the production and consumption of oil. The enormous amount of oily wastewater produced is urged to be treated to prevent humanity and environment from being threatened. Membrane technology is an appealing alternative for oily wastewater treatment due to its design simplicity, energy efficiency and environmentally benign approach. In this ...

Preparation and Characterization of Microfiltration Ceramic Membrane for Oily Waste Water Treatment

This work highlights the preparation of ceramic membranes from a low-cost naturally occurring clay material viz. red mud. Additives like sodium carbonate, sodium metasilicate and boric acid was added in standard stoichiometric ratio with the processed clay material, imparting characteristic properties. Paste casting method was followed for fabricating circular disc shaped membranes with 50 mm× ...
