“…The phase inversion process is the process of exchange of a polymer from the liquid phase to the solid phase that occurs under controlled conditions [96]. Phase separation occurs when the solvent and nonsolvent phases change when the solution is immersed in an agglomeration container [97]. This process produces a porous layer on the membrane surface [81,98].…”

Membrane separation processes are prevalent in industrial wastewater treatment because they are more effective than conventional methods at addressing global water issues. Consequently, the ideal membranes with high mechanical strength, thermal characteristics, flux, permeability, porosity, and solute removal capacity must be prepared to aid in the separation process for wastewater treatment. Rubber-based membranes have shown the potential for high mechanical properties in water separation processes to date. In addition, the excellent sustainable practice of natural fibers has attracted great attention from industrial players and researchers for the exploitation of polymer composite membranes to improve the balance between the environment and social and economic concerns. The incorporation of natural fiber in thermoplastic elastomer (TPE) as filler and pore former agent enhances the mechanical properties, and high separation efficiency characteristics of membrane composites are discussed. Furthermore, recent advancements in the fabrication technique of porous membranes affected the membrane’s structure, and the performance of wastewater treatment applications is reviewed.

“…PMRs in this case refer to those which immobilise PC with a membrane in order to increase the mass transfer over the immobilised photocatalyst. This can be by inclusion in the membrane dope to form mixed matrix membranes (MMM), 218,219 on a membrane surface, [220][221][222][223] or the membrane can be fabricated directly from PC material 56,224,225 (less common). This is important to note as suspended photocatalytic slurry reactors with a membrane based PC recovery stage are sometimes dubbed slurry-PMRs.…”

“…The gel/solution is deposited onto support plates (casting, dip coating, spin coating or dipping into the substrate, etc.) with controlled thickness (for more details, see [ 71 , 73 , 74 , 75 , 76 ]). In the final treatment of the film it is dried in heat or in a vacuum, and irradiated.…”

Polyvinyl alcohol is unique among polymers. Apart from its preparation, it is not built up in polymerization reactions from monomers, unlike most vinyl-polymers, and it is biodegradable in the presence of suitably acclimated microorganisms. It is an environmentally friendly material for a wide range of applications, from medical ones, based on its biocompatibility, to integrated optics. This paper reviews, in addition to the preparation and optimization of films of polyvinyl alcohol doped with different metal species, the role of dopants and doping technologies in the involved electronic mechanism. The optical properties were studied by UV-VIS-IR, Mössbauer spectroscopy, and other measurement techniques, with applications such as real-time holography, microlasers, optical sensors or nanophotonics in mind.
