Thermally-induced phase separation (TIPS) is one of the most popular methods considered
for membrane preparation. Since its introduction by Castro in 1981, there has been …

The separation of dyes and salts is very challenging in regards to treating high salinity textile
wastewater. To effectively dispose dye/salt mixtures, it has become urgent to develop highly …

In this work, three types of hollow fiber loose nanofiltration membranes (LNFs) with different
compactness in an “outside-in” mode were prepared via “chemical crosslinking and metal …

Membrane-based treatment for oil-in-water emulsion remains a significant challenge. The
main difficulties are to solve membrane fouling and to destroy the emulsion system to …

The fabrication of loose nanofiltration (LNF) membranes for effective separation of dye/salt
wastewater mixtures remains a great challenge. In this study, a new method for preparing a …

In this study, a self-prepared polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) hollow fiber membrane with a
hierarchical structure was used for facile modification by co-deposition of polydopamine …

Efficient concentration and separation of heavy metal ions from wastewater are crucial for
environmental protection and resource recovery. In this research, a double highly positively …

The bottlenecks of low separation efficiency and unsatisfactory structural stability restrain the
advancement of superhydrophobic membranes in water-in-oil emulsions separation. In this …

Hydrophilic poly (ethylene-co-vinyl alcohol)(EVOH) was blended with hydrophobic
