This study focused on the surface modification of commercial TiO2 membranes with Fe3O4 decorated silver (Ag) nanoparticles (Fe3O4–Ag) via chemical attachment. Firstly, the Ag concentration on Fe3O4 was optimized, and different composites were prepared and characterized. Secondly, the optimal composite was used to prepare novel TiO2/Fe3O4–Ag ceramic membranes via surface coating through tetraethyl orthosilicate (TEOS)… Continue reading TiO2 ceramic membrane decorated with Fe3O4–Ag composite nanoparticles for produced water treatment
In this study, commercial cellulose membranes were surface coated with alpha‑zirconium phosphate nanoparticles (α-ZrP-n) to study their impact on the overall removal efficiency of heavy metals from synthetic metal mixture wastewater solution. A total of four homogeneous solutions (0.25, 0.50, 0.75, and 1.00 wt%) of α-ZrP-n were prepared by sonicating the nanoparticles in deionized water.… Continue reading Synthesis of super hydrophilic cellulose-alpha zirconium phosphate ion exchange membrane via surface coating for the removal of heavy metals from wastewater
