Abstract:The sharp increase in waterborne diseases due to bacterial contamination is limiting the supply of safe water in developing countries. This study focuses on the development and optimization of a low‐cost ceramic membrane based on natural resources and local waste for eliminating bacteria from water. The augmented simplex centroïd mixture design (ASCD) was used. The obtained optimal formulation consisted of 65% Ebebda clay (EB) 18.64% Koutaba clay (KG), and 16.34% cassava peel (PM) with a holding temperature of… Show more
