“…It is mainly to coat a very thin filtration layer on a support with relatively high mechanical strength, which significantly increases the flux of the filtration membrane while ensuring the mechanical strength of the filtration membrane. This is also one of the important advancements made in membrane preparation technology in the past few decades [109]. The thickness of commercial ceramic microfiltration membranes is usually about 10-20 µm.…”

“…The structure of ceramic filtration membranes can be divided into symmetrical and asymmetrical structures. Compared with traditional filtration devices, ceramic microfiltration membranes with symmetrical structures have relatively small pores ranging from 0.01 to 10 μm, the separation efficiency of the ceramic filtration membrane depends on the pore size distribution of the filtration membrane and the size of the particles to be separated [109].…”

In the field of industrial wastewater treatment, membrane separation technology, as an emerging separation technology, compared with traditional separation technology such as precipitation, adsorption, and ion exchange, has advantages in separation efficiency, low energy consumption, low cost, simple operation, and no secondary pollution. The application has been expanding in recent years, but membrane fouling and other problems have seriously restricted the development of membrane technology. Natural cellulose is one of the most abundant resources in nature. In addition, nanocellulose has characteristics of high strength and specific surface area, surface activity groups, as well as being pollution-free and renewable, giving it a very wide development prospect in many fields, including membrane separation technology. This paper reviews the current status of nanocellulose filtration membrane, combs the widespread types of nanocellulose and its derivatives, and summarizes the current application of cellulose in membrane separation. In addition, for the purpose of nanocellulose filtration membrane in wastewater treatment, nanocellulose membranes are divided into two categories according to the role in filtration membrane: the application of nanocellulose as membrane matrix material and as a modified additive in composite membrane in wastewater treatment. Finally, the advantages and disadvantages of inorganic ceramic filtrations and nanocellulose filtrations are compared, and the application trend of nanocellulose in the filtration membrane direction is summarized and discussed.

The importance of water recovery and reuse is increasing day by day. Therefore, the use of advanced technologies is applied for the treatment and recovery of textile wastewater. The fact that ceramic membranes are resistant to the challenging characteristics of textile wastewater makes the use of ceramic membranes useful. Within the scope of this review, general information about the textile industry and treatment techniques are mentioned, as well as the properties of ceramic membranes and textile wastewater treatment. In the literature review made in this study, recent studies on the production of ceramic membranes and laboratory applications have been compiled. However, it has been observed that although the real-scale studies are relatively higher in industries such as the food and petrochemical industry, it is rather limited in the textile industry.

“…Their success indicates that dynamic anaerobic MBR has great application potential for the treatment of high-strength wastewater, including PSWW, at a low operating cost. On the other hand, due to ceramic membranes having a super chemical/thermal stability, low fouling propensity, and long lifespan, the applications of ceramic membrane technology in water and wastewater are rapidly growing, even on a full-size/industrial scale [83,84]. The lower lifecycle cost of ceramic membranes than PVDF membranes in water treatment [85] also implies that the use of ceramic membranes is an excellent option for PSWW treatment in the near future.…”

Poultry slaughterhouses produce a large amount of wastewater, which is usually treated by conventional methods. The traditional techniques face some challenges, especially the incapability of recovering valuable nutrients and reusing the treated water. Therefore, membrane technology has been widely adopted by researchers due to its enormous advantages over conventional methods. Pressure-driven membranes, such as microfiltration (MF), ultrafiltration (UF), nanofiltration (NF), and reverse osmosis (RO), have been studied to purify poultry slaughterhouse wastewater (PSWW) as a standalone process or an integrated process with other procedures. Membrane technology showed excellent performance by providing high efficiency for pollutant removal and the recovery of water and valuable products. It may remove approximately all the pollutants from PSWW and purify the water to the required level for discharge to the environment and even reuse for industrial poultry processing purposes while being economically efficient. This article comprehensively reviews the treatment and reuse of PSWW with MF, UF, NF, and RO. Most valuable nutrients can be recovered by UF, and high-quality water for reuse in poultry processing can be produced by RO from PSWW. The incredible performance of membrane technology indicates that membrane technology is an alternative approach for treating PSWW.
