Journal ArticleDOI

Removal of hazardous volatile organic compounds from water by vacuum pervaporation with hydrophobic ceramic membranes

TL;DR: In this article, hydrophobic alumina and titania micro and mesoporous ceramic membranes were prepared by grafting of C6F13C2H4Si(OEt)3 (C6) molecules and subsequently applied in a pervaporation (PV) process to the removal of hazardous organic solvents (MTBE, EtAc and BuOH) from binary aqueous solutions.
Journal ArticleDOI

Influence of hydrophobization conditions and ceramic membranes pore size on their properties in vacuum membrane distillation of water–organic solvent mixtures

TL;DR: In this paper, the influence of diverse parameters (e.g., type of molecule, duration of grafting, concentration of FAS solution, type of solvent) on the resulting hydrophobic surface was investigated.
Journal ArticleDOI

Membrane bioreactors and electrochemical processes for treatment of wastewaters containing heavy metal ions, organics, micropollutants and dyes: Recent developments.

TL;DR: One of the most effective approaches towards reducing energy consumption and membrane fouling rate is the integration of MBR with low-voltage electrochemical processes in an electrically-enhanced membrane bioreactor (eMBR), while research on eMBR modeling and sludge reuse is limited.
Journal ArticleDOI

Highly Efficient Hydrophobic Titania Ceramic Membranes for Water Desalination

TL;DR: Overall mass transfer coefficients (K) for membranes tested in AGMD were constant over the investigated temperature range, however, K values in DCMD increased at elevated temperature, and the hydrophobic layer was also stable after 4 years of exposure to open air.
Journal ArticleDOI

Photocatalytic hollow fiber membranes for the degradation of pharmaceutical compounds in wastewater

TL;DR: In this paper, the degradation of organic pharmaceutical waste compounds using TiO2 nanoparticles immobilized on polymeric commercial hollow fiber (HF) ultrafiltration membranes was studied, and three immobilization methods were tested; spray-, vacuum- and sol-gel-coating.
