Abstract:

This paper is devoted to the application of new low cost ceramic ultrafi ltration membranes material coming from the Tunisian ores (mud) which is usually considered as disastrous for the environment. A ceramic tubular support previously elaborated from mud was coated in the lumen side by slip casting method. After sintering at 650°C, the coated membrane shows homogeneous layer without cracks, with a pore diameter of 11 nm. The coating has the thickness of ~9 µm and water permeability of the prepared membrane is 90 L/h.m2.bar. Then the prepared membrane has been applied for treating of dyeing wastewater under 5 bar pressure. The result was interesting with a permeate fl ux of 65 l/h.m2, pollutants retention rate of 90% for COD and almost a total retention of turbidity and color, respectively. The membrane can then be regenerated by using a chemical washing.

Single Step Preparation of Zirconia Ultrafi ltration Membrane over Clay-Alumina Based Multichannel Ceramic Support for Wastewater Treatment

Zirconia ultrafiltration membranes are widely developed and used for past several years. But the conventional sol-gel methods of zirconia membrane preparation involve many steps. In the present study an attempt was made to develop defect free zirconia ultrafiltration (UF) membrane in single step coating of zirconia nanopowder suspension by slip casting method over multichannel ceramic support. ...

Ultrafi ltration is generally applied continuously or intermittently, while the dialysis procedure (diffusion of substances across the dialysis membrane) is going on. During the last few years, short-time dialysis (3–4 hr 3 times a week or every other...

Waste Engine Oil Remediation Using Low Cost Natural Clay Absorbent Material

The aim of the current research is to examine the potential of locally available natural clay mineral to act as an effective absorbent for waste engine oil treatment. The clay mineral was collected from the southern region of Saudi Arabia and was used without any kind of surface modification. The clay mineral was characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), X-ray fluorescence (XPS) and Braunner-Em...
