This study provides a facile and effective method to modify thin film composite (TFC) hollow
fiber nanofiltration (NF) membranes by grafting poly (amidoamine) dendrimer (PAMAM) on …

In this study, TiO2 nanoparticles were inserted into the polyamide layer of traditional thin film
composite membrane. The nanoparticles were dispersed in a trimesoyl chloride-hexane …

In this study, a novel forward osmosis (FO) process for the removal of heavy metal ions from
wastewater was demonstrated for the first time. The proposed FO process consists of a thin …

Internal concentration polarization (ICP) in substrate layer is one of the most critical
bottlenecks of the forward osmosis (FO) process. In this study, we explored the use of metal …

The design and preparation of polymeric membranes with excellent permeability while
maintaining the high rejection remains a great challenge. In this study, water-soluble metal …

This study reports efficient rejection of four typical ionic divalent heavy metals of interest (ie
Cd 2+, Pb 2+, Cu 2+, Zn 2+) using forward osmosis (FO) by our recently developed …

Novel thin-film nanocomposite (TFN) membranes were synthesized by interfacial
polymerization for the forward osmosis (FO) application. Amine functionalized multi-walled …

In this work, polysulfone (PSf)–titanium dioxide (TiO 2) nanocomposite substrates were
prepared by incorporating different amounts of TiO 2 nanoparticles (ranging from zero to 1 …

In this study, titanium dioxide (TiO2) nanoparticles (NPs) were incorporated into
polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) membrane to produce a mixed matrix membrane via phase …

Metal–organic framework (MOF) materials have received extensive attention for the design
of advanced thin-film nanocomposite (TFN) membranes with excellent permselectivity …
