Over the past decades, water scarcity and security have significantly stimulated the advances of reverse osmosis (RO) technology, which dominates the global desalination …
Thin film nanocomposite (TFN) membranes, comprising nanofillers and nanoscale dense polymeric barriers, were prepared by introducing nanomaterials into a polyamide layer …
Seawater is receiving consideration as an infinite water source in the current era of water shortage. The application of seawater reverse osmosis (SWRO) to prepare seawater for …
The emergence and accumulation of microplastics (MPs) in various aquatic environments have recently raised significant concerns. Wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) have been …
Abstract Micro/nanoplastics (MPs/NPs) are widespread and pose a significant threat to the environment. Conventional polymeric membrane filtration struggles to completely remove …
The development of the antifouling Reverse Osmosis (RO) membranes requires modeling and simulation as an essential tool alongside the progress of RO membrane technologies …
Polymeric membranes are widely applied in water and wastewater treatment. During membrane filtration, membrane hydrophilicity is essential for both membrane flux and …
Reverse osmosis (RO) is an efficient water purification technique because of its high selectivity and permeability. During RO operation, rejection of solutes at the membrane …
