The ever-increasing human demand for safe and clean water is gradually pushing conventional water treatment technologies to their limits. It is now a popular perception that the solutions to the existing and future water challenges will hinge upon further developments in nanomaterial sciences. The concept of rational design emphasizes on 'design-for-purpose' and it necessitates a scientifically...

Nanofiltration is a promising solution for the removal of emerging and persistent micropollutants, but it limited by operating expenses due to high membrane areas operational pressures, dictated membrane’s low molecular weight cut-offs (MWCO), formation large amounts concentrate be treated, e.g. advanced oxidation. In this paper, simple proposed enhance retention micropollutants adding cyclodex...

One of the most significant urban services is carwash, which generates large amounts wastewater containing a variety pollutants, including sand, gravel, suspended solids, surfactants, oil products, diesel cleaners, etc., that may cause environmental pollution when transferred to sewage system without any treatment. The effective treatment crucial prevent as well recycle water source. Contaminan...

Growing demands for potable water have strained water resources and increased interest in wastewater reclamation for potable reuse. This interest has brought increased attention to endocrine-disrupting chemicals (EDCs) as emerging water contaminants. The effect of EDCs, and in particular natural steroid hormones, on humans is of heightened interest in the study of wastewater reuse in advanced l...

Nanofiltration (NF) is seen as a promising advanced treatment technology to deal with the increasing concentration of micropollutants (MPs) in water sources globally. To further improve successful implementation NF, an increased understanding membrane transport mechanisms important. One key aspect among these concerns influence solution composition on overall filtration performance. Although se...

background: the chemical quality of water used for dialysis fluid is a vital factor in the overall care received by dialysis patients. therefore, water used for this purpose should be treated with advanced methods before use for dialysis. the objective of this study was to assess the efficiency of reverse osmosis systems to improve water quality used for dialysis fluid. methods: in this descrip...

Membrane filtration processes like microfiltration (MF) and ultrafiltration (UF) are proven to be effective in industrial wastewater treatment, including oil-water separation, as they generate suitable quality permeate for water reuse applications. Various research efforts have been conducted areas of developing and/or modifying commercial MF/UF membrane materials through synthesizing new advan...

in this research, polyvinylchloride based composite heterogeneous cation exchange membranes were prepared by the solution casting technique. chitosan-co-iron nickel oxide nanoparticles were utilized as membrane surface modifier to improve the membranes electrochemical properties. the effect of additive nanoparticle concentration in the modifier solution on the properties of composite membranes ...

The main goal of this study is to evaluate possible reuse routes effluents from adairy plant. First, the water flow in plant was evaluated. All consumed and generated by industrial process were quantified characterized. In addition, quality parameters required for different activities assessed. Secondly, a treatment system using membrane bioreactor nanofiltration reactor, previously conducted a...
