Oily wastewater has been recognised as the most dangerous form of environmental
pollution since the pollutant comes from a variety of sources and may harm humans …

Recently, there have been considerable progresses in the development of membrane
materials for various purposes, which in turn has increased the demand for new membranes …

Groundwater contaminant removal using ultrafiltration (UF) and nanofiltration (NF)
membranes is complex due to limitations such as low selectivity-permeability and …

The use of membrane technology for produced oily water treatment has become an active
area of research for both academia and industry. The search for membranes with enhanced …

Treatment of produced water in oil fields has become a tough challenge for oil producers.
Nanofiltration, a promising method for water treatment, has been proposed as a solution …

Dual-layer hollow fiber (DLHF) nanocomposite membrane prepared by co-extrusion
technique allows a uniform distribution of nanoparticles within the membrane outer layer to …

We fabricated membranes by adding the inorganic additive, Ni (NO 3) 2∙ 6H 2 O, to cellulose
acetate (CA) polymer. When subjected to water pressure, the polymer chain was weakened …

For the last two decades there has been momentous development in the Metal Organic
Frameworks (MOFs) field. There are two major building blocks of MOFs that is the primary …

This chapter describes the implementation of ceramic (inorganic) membranes for oil/water
separation in oily wastewater treatment or hydrocarbon-based wastewater in produced …
