The treatment of the yeast industry wastewater was investigated by nanofiltration (NF) membrane process on a pilot scale. Two wastewaters were used as feed: (i) dilute wastewater with COD 2000 mg/L and (ii) concentrate wastewater with COD 8000 mg/L. The permeate flux, COD retention, color and electrical conductivity (EC) removal were evaluated in relation to trans-membrane pressure and long-ter...

Abstract Nanofiltration is one of the most widely used membrane processes for water purification with high practical value because a large number chemical species that are separated through this process. Usually, nanofiltration, energy–consuming operations involved including generation enough pressure rejection jumps and lower molecular weight chemicals at surface membrane. Recent developments ...

This communication reports a new technology platform that advantageously combines organic solvent nanofiltration (a newly emerging technology capable of molecular separations in organic solvents) with solution phase peptide synthesis-Membrane Enhanced Peptide Synthesis (MEPS).

The occurrence of organic micropollutants in ground- and surface waters has become an important concern for the drinking water industry, mainly because of possible related health effects. Due to the polar nature of some of these pollutants, they are not completely removed by traditional water treatment barriers. This paper offers an overview of priority organic micropollutants and their occurre...

Membrane technology for water treatment is growing due to the increased demand clean and stringent standard quality. Nanofiltration (NF) widely used in membranes lower energy consumption higher flux rates. The application was not limited only treatment, yet NF showed excellent potential solvent nanofiltration application. utilization of MOF materials preparation produce composite has attracted ...

The ability of a variety of nanofiltration and reverse osmosis membranes to retain the natural hormone estrone are examined here as a function of solution conditions. While size exclusion dominates retention with the tighter membranes, both size exclusion and adsorptive effects appear to be instrumental in maintaining high retention on nanofiltration membranes that otherwise exhibit relatively ...

uv-induced grafting technique was used as a flexible method for surface modification of polysulfone (psf) ultrafiltration (uf) membranes in order to prepare hydrophilic nanofiltration (nf) membranes. flat sheet polysulfone (psf) ultrafiltration membranes were prepared via phase inversion method. n-methylene-2-pyrrolidone (nmp) and polyethylene glycol (peg) of three different molecular weights (...

It is now generally accepted that biofouling is inevitable in pressure-driven membrane processes for water purification. A large number of published articles describe the development of novel membranes in an effort to address biofouling in such systems. It is reasonable to assume that such membranes, even those with antimicrobial properties, when applied in industrial-scale systems will experie...

Nanofiltration of press liquor from viscose-type textile fibre production was investigated using a laboratory-scale cross-flow test apparatus. Feed solutions contained about 200 g/l sodium hydroxide and a high concentration of hemicellulose as a contaminant originating from the raw material wood. The effect of various pretreatments and the addition of reagents affecting the solution state of he...

the aim to achieve in this study is to recover the cr(iii) and process waters used in thewastewaters of chrome tanning operation by membrane process during leather production. in the treatmentalternative contains, cartridge filter, nanofiltration (nf(np10)), nanofiltration nf(xn45) and reverse osmosisro(acm2) membranes. the raw chrome wastewater from the cartridge filter was given to nf(np10)me...
