Membranes are ubiquitous tools for modern water treatment technology that critically
eliminate hazardous materials such as organic, inorganic, heavy metals, and biomedical …

A class of porous materials, metal-organic framework materials (MOFs) are held together by
strong chemical bonds between metal ions and organic linkers. Distinguished by their …

Sporopollenin microcapsules (sporopollenin exine capsule (SEC)) have characteristic holes
with 25 μm diameter and can be chemically obtained from the natural pollen grains. In this …

Freshwater scarcity in many arid regions necessitates brackish water desalination via
reverse osmosis (RO). One of the key obstacles to lowering the cost of RO freshwater is …

A novel strategy for sensing protein was proposed through combining the high selectivity of
molecular imprinting technology with the excellent upconversion fluorescence of …

Reverse osmosis (RO) membranes are susceptible to silica scaling, resulting in irreversible
degradation of membrane performance. This work covered the fabrication of MIL-101 (Fe) …

In this study, the suitability of a novel modified resin (gallic acid modified resin: GA-type
resin) for silicic acid removal was investigated using fixed-bed column adsorption …

Effluent reuse is a common practice for sustainable industrial water use. Salt removal is
usually carried out by a combination of membrane processes with a final reverse osmosis …

For the treatment of various contaminants involving the reduction action, utilization of zero-
valent silicon (ZVS) may be expected due to its higher reactivity than zero-valent iron (ZVI) …

Silica plays a crucial role in the formation of inorganic scaling. Therefore, we present a study
on the effectiveness of γ-AlOOH (boehmite) as a silica removal adsorbent. Kinetic analysis …
