Growing environmental concerns have fueled the need for efficient separation of oil–water
mixtures. Membranes that separate oil–water mixture based on contrasting wetting …

Advanced filtration requires a cost-effective, highly efficient and environmentally friendly
membrane fabrication to achieve excellent and extreme oleophobic and hydrophilic states …

The separation of oil in water and water in oil emulsions using the ceramic membranes with
selective oil and water wettability has proven to be cost effective, less cumbersome and …

Although ultrafiltration is a reliable method for separating oily wastewater, the process is
limited by problems of low flux and membrane fouling. In this study, for the first time …

Efficient construction of ceramic membranes can decrease the cost and ease the process of
wastewater treatment. The total cost of ceramic membranes is mainly determined by the cost …
