Nanofiltration membranes composed of carbonized giant cane and Pongamia meal binder for ion sieving in water and molecular sieving in organic solvents

Emerging trends in membrane-based wastewater treatment: electrospun nanofibers and reticular porous adsorbents as key components

“…263 According to the study, the adsorption capacities of ZIF8@Mucor-0, ZIF8@Mucor-3 and ZIF8@Mucor-4 were found to be 973. 53 and increased active sites, ZIF-8@Mucor-3 exhibited the maximum adsorption capacity.…”

“…Consequently, there exists a necessity to transition membrane production techniques towards environmentally sustainable alternatives, characterised by reduced utilization of hazardous solvents and adherence to principles of sustainability. [51][52][53][54][55] Furthermore, in order to optimize the effectiveness of the separation process, a range of modifications and manufacturing techniques have been employed with regard to the membrane. Significant enhancements in membrane performance have been achieved by modifying surface properties using various techniques, including plasma etching, 56 thermal crosslinking, 57 and oxidation.…”
