Water pollution from the fashion industries containing dyes has become a major source of water pollution. These anthropogenic contaminated waters directly enter irrigation and drinking systems, causing irreversible environmental damage to human health. Nanomembrane technology attracted extensive attention remove these toxic chemicals but new approaches are still required for improving removal e...

Membrane reusability determines the economic sustainability of separation process. However, membrane was deduced by antifouling properties, while actual reuse performance using palm oil mill effluent (POME) is rarely reported. This study investigates nano-Fe3O4/PVDF (PVDF1) for POME treatment. The chemical oxygen demand (COD), total suspended solid (TSS) permeate, molecular weight cut off (MWCO...

Matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization (MALDI) tof mass spectrometry was used for the confirmation of hapten number in synthesized antigen. As application of MAb, the MAbs against ginsenosides and glycyrrhizin have been prepared resulting in the development of two new techniques that we named the eastern blotting method and the knockout extract preparation. In eastern blotting technique, g...

The fabrication of activated carbon air cathodes for larger-scale microbial fuel cells requires a diffusion layer (DL) that is highly resistant to water leakage, oxygen permeable, and made using inexpensive materials. A hydrophobic polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) membrane synthesized using a simple phase inversion process was examined as a low cost ($0.9/m(2)), carbon-free DL that prevented wate...

In this study, thin-film composite (TFC) polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) membranes were synthesized by coating with titanium dioxide (TiO2)/polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) solution a dip method and cross-linked glutaraldehyde. Glutaraldehyde (GA) acted as cross-linking agent to improve the thermal chemical stability of thin film coating. The incorporation TiO2 in enhanced hydrophilicity membrane rejecti...

Biofouling of membrane surfaces by the attachment of microorganisms is one of the major obstacles for ensuring the effectiveness of membrane separation processes. This work presents the construction of a zwitterionic PVDF membrane surface with improved resistance to biofouling. An amphiphilic copolymer of poly(vinylidene fluoride)-graft-poly(N,N-dimethylamino-2-ethylmethacrylate) (PVDF-g-PDMAEM...

A novel PVDF hybrid membrane with excellent active–passive integrated antifouling and antibacterial properties is fabricated. PDA guiding effect created directed toward AgNP l -cysteine formation, the performance of entire structure enhanced greatly.

Different weight percentages of ZrO2 (0, 3, 5, 7 and 10 wt%) incorporated electrospun PVDF-HFP nanocomposite polymer membranes (esCPMs) were prepared by electrospinning technique. They were activated by soaking in 1 M LiPF6 containing 1:1 volume ratio of EC : DMC (ethylene carbonate:dimethyl carbonate) to get electrospun nanocomposite polymer membrane electrolytes (esCPMEs). The influence of Zr...
