Abstract:Cellulose membrane (SE) was prepared by culturing Acetobacter xylinum in a media with sucrose as a carbon source and was used as a supporting membrane in this study. Pore size of the supporting membrane was studied by means of molecular weight cut off (MWCO) and SEM micrographs. For making cellulose/chitosan composite membrane SE/CH, chitosan solution was used as a coating polymer and applied by a casting method.This resulted in a smaller hydraulic permeability coefficient (Lp) from 6.7 × 10–11 m3 N–1 s–1 in m… Show more
