background: natural organic matter is the cause of many problems associated with water treatment such as the presence of disinfection by-products (dbps) and membrane fouling during water filtration. in this study, the performance of the peroxi-electrocoagulation process (pep) was investigated for the removal of humic acids (has) from aqueous solutions. methods: pep was carried out for the remov...

The interaction between the ions and the charge of membranes can affect the efficiency of pollutant removal. The present study investigated the removal efficiency of hexavalent chromium and nitrate ions from both actual and synthetic contaminated water via two different commercial spiral wound polyamide nanofilters. In addition, the interaction of ions under different experimental conditions wa...
