“…The permeate flux of the membranes was also determined. As seen in Fig.5a, all three membranes maintain high permeate flux between 400-700 L/m 2 -hr.These valuesare comparable to other MF membranes reported elsewhere [27], [28]. The variation in permeate flux may be a consequence of the inconsistent membrane thickness.…”

Abstract-A membrane with selective wettability and excellent thermal and chemical stability is required for effective oil-water separation. In this work, a novel TiO 2 nanosheet-anchored carbonnanofibers fabricated by using solvothermal method is presented. The hierarchical TiO 2 micro/nanostructure that grows on the surface of carbon nanofibers renders the membrane superhydrophilic and underwater superoleophobic. Coupled with the characteristic of high porosity and micron-scale pore size, the membrane is capable of separating oil from water by gravity. Thermal analysis show thatthe oil-water separation efficiency is greater than 99%. Furthermore, the membrane has an oil breakthrough pressure up to 3.63m which is the highest breakthrough pressure ever reported. Stability test indicates that the membrane is stable in ultrasonic, thermal and extreme pH conditions. Without compromising the separation efficiency, a permeate flux of 400-700L/m 2 -hr can be achieved.

“…Ultrafiltration is useful with low oil content, but has permeate flux rates lower than 100 l m -2 hr -1 which is too low to be commercially attractive offshore [5; 6]. For Produced Water microfiltration has been studied by various researchers [7][8][9][10][11]. Higher flux rates (above 100 l m -2 hr -1 ) were achieved.…”

“…In an attempt to improve the achievable flux microfiltration has been tested as a means to remove the suspended oil. It has been 3 found that, despite the apparently more permeable membrane, again the filtrate flow is generally at, or below, 100 l m -2 h -1 (Koltuniewicz et al (1995), Koltuniewicz & Field (1996), Mueller et al (1997), Wang et al (2000), Madaeni & Yeganeh (2003)). …”
