Nanofiltration of Hormone Mimicking Trace Organic Contaminants
The removal mechanisms of three hormone mimicking organic compounds by nanofiltration (NF) membranes have been examined. Two NF membranes having different pore sizes were used in laboratory-scale nanofiltration experiments with feed solutions spiked with a hormone mimicking compound—nonylphenol, tertbutylphenol, or bisphenol A. Retention of the compounds was determined at various solution chemi...
متن کاملfaImpact of Organic Matrix Compounds on the Retention of Steroid Hormone Estrone by a ‘Loose’ Nanofiltration Membrane
The impact of solute-solute interactions on retention and membrane adsorption of the micropollutant estrone was determined in the presence of surfactant sodium dodecyl sulphate (SDS), natural organic matter (NOM) and cellulose. A five cycle stirred cell protocol was used to study progressing saturation of a loose nanofiltration membrane with estrone. Adsorption was absent at high pH when the es...
متن کاملImpact of speciation on removal of manganese and organic matter by nanofiltration
The removal of manganese and humic acid (HA) by two nanofiltration membranes, TFC-SR2 and TFC-SR3, was investigated in order to highlight the influence of speciation on manganese and HA retention. Manganese speciation and complexation with HA were modelled to understand how speciation could affect NF removal mechanisms. The behaviour of the two membranes was drastically different for manganese ...
متن کاملRemoval of natural organic matter from aqueous solutions by electrocoagulation
Natural organic matter (NOM) affects some qualitative parameters of water such as color. In addition, it can deteriorate the performance of water treatment process including coagulation, adsorption, and membranes. NOM also reacts with chlorine in the chlorination process and may form disinfection by-products. The present study was carried out in laboratory-scale in a batch system using a cylind...
متن کاملNatural organic matter and disinfection by-products formation potential in conventional and advanced water treatments
The performance of a conventional sequence (pre-ozonation, coagulation/flocculation/sedimentation, filtration, disinfection) and two advance sequences (pre-ozonation, nanofiltration; pre-ozonation, coagulation/flocculation/sedimentation, nanofiltration) on the removal of natural organic matter (NOM) and disinfection by-products (DBPs) formation potential was evaluated. Raw and treated waters we...
