Abstract Inorganic two-dimensional membranes offer a new approach to modulating mass transport at the nanoscale. These membranes, which can harness van der Waals gap as nanochannel and address persistent challenges in organic are limited few material libraries, such graphene, graphene oxide, molybdenum disulfide, boron nitride. Here we report for first time development of cation-selective layer...

Abstract In this study, an electrohydrodynamic atomization or electrospraying technique is used for the uniform deposition of carbon nanotubes (CNT) on a commercially available PTFE membrane and employed Membrane Distillation (MD) process. Modified PTFE-CNT was characterized water contact angle, liquid entry pressure (LEP), pore size distribution, surface morphology. The electrospray coating CN...

Abstract The membranes can be synthesized from organic and inorganic materials. One of the based materials used was a cellulose acetate membrane banana peel. Banana peel comprised 65% cellulose, therefore it had potential to processed into membrane. Cellulose are using mixture skin with 55% acetone 27% dimethylformamide phase inversion technique. SEM results pictured porous pore size about 5 μm...

During interfacial polymerization (IP) reaction between m-phenylenediamine (MPDA) and trimesoyl chloride (TMC), a by-product, i.e. hydrochloric acid can produce. This produced acid diffuses back in aqueous phase and protonates MPDA and reduces its reactivity that results in lowering of polymer yield and performance of membrane. Further, for getting consistency in reverse...

The cmpABCD operon of the cyanobacterium Synechococcus sp. strain PCC 7942 encodes an ATP-binding cassette transporter involved in HCO(3)(-) uptake. The three genes, cmpBCD, encode membrane components of an ATP-binding cassette transporter, whereas cmpA encodes a 42-kDa cytoplasmic membrane protein, which is 46.5% identical to the membrane-anchored substrate-binding protein of the nitrate/nitri...
