Poly(ether ether ketone) with cardo group-based (PEEK-WC) membranes, in hollow fber (HF) confguration, were prepared via the dry-wet spinning technique through the phase inversion process and used to clarify kiwifruit juice. The depectinised juice was processed according to a batch concentration confguration in selected operating conditions (transmembrane pressure, 1.6 ...

Integrally-skinned asymmetric Polyetherimide/Poly (vinyl alcohol) (PEI/PVA) hollow fber membranes for pervaporation dehydration were fabricated by non-solvent induced phase inversion. PVA inside the PEI matrix could be crosslinked to provide membrane performance stability during long term operation. The effects of different PEI/PVA blend ratio, external coagulant type and...

This study focuses on the preparation and modification of a thin-film composite (TFC) hollow fiber polyamide membrane fabricated by the interfacial polymerization of Piperazine (PIP) and trimesoyl chloride (TMC) on a porous polysulfone substrate. The effects of triethylenetetramine (TETA) and silica nanoparticles (SiO2) contents in the aqueous phase (as the additives) on the morphology and perf...

membrane technology is used to separate water or solvents from salts or pollutants. this technique could be used for water treatment. for using of polyether sulfone (pes) hollow fiber membranes in water treatment processes, the pes hollow fiber membranes were prepared by dry-wet spinning method and heated in an oven at: 120°c, 150°c and 180°c. the effect of heating on performance of membranes w...

Electrospun nanofber membranes (ENMs) are new generation of membranes with many favorable properties such as high flux and low pressure drop. Although electrospinning has been known for more than a century, its applications in fltration and separation processes are relatively new. Electrospinning has provided the means to produce ultrathin fbers – as thin as a few nanome...
