Development of thin film polymer nanocomposite membrane (ZIF-8@PSf/CS) for removal of textile pollutant and evaluating the effect of water samples on human monocytic cell lines (THP-1) using flow cytometer

Advanced Polymeric Nanocomposite Membranes for Water and Wastewater Treatment: A Comprehensive Review

“…This membrane demonstrated removal of both cationic and anionic dyes (MB, 94.11%; RhB, 94.01%; Acid blue, 86.6% and Congo Red (CR), 85.50%) due to π-π, hydrogen bonding, and electrostatic interactions. The trend of enhancement in porosity and hydrophilicity of these membranes can be observed in Figure 10 a [ 280 ]. Nanocomposite RO membranes were fabricated by Kim et al from amino groups carrying sulfonated poly(arylene ether sulfonate) and aminated EMT type zeolite NPs.…”

Development of Z-scheme bimetallic tungstate-supported nitrogen deficient g-C3N4heterojunction for the treatment of refractory pharmaceutical pollutants

“…7,8 The photocatalysis technique is a realistic, beneficial, cost-effective method as well as a sustainable solution for removing hazardous compounds from the atmosphere and water bodies and the production of sustainable energy, such as hydrogen fuel production via water splitting technology. [9][10][11] Photocatalytic antibiotic degradation uses advanced oxidation and reduction pathways to help in the mineralization of antibiotics into CO 2 and H 2 O, which is aided by the production of active radical species as per respective band gap ranges in the presence of a lamp source (ultraviolet, visible light, and sunshine) and suitable photocatalyst materials. 12,13 Researchers have significantly focused on creating specific semiconductor features for the superior degrading performance of impurities.…”

Covalent Bonding Enhanced Polypropylene Based T-ZIF-8 Masterbatch with Superior Photocatalytic and Antibacterial Performances

“…All of them are post-finishing technology, which are physical composite or weak bond binding. The antibacterial agent is easy to fall off and dissolve during washing, leading to antibacterial inactivation [ 19 – 21 ]. The pretreatment technology can blend the ZIF-8 antibacterial agent with the polymer matrix to prepare the fabric, which can solve the problem of the shedding and deactivation of the antibacterial agent.…”
