Journal ArticleDOI

Study of membrane compaction and its influence on ultrafiltration water permeability

TL;DR: In this article, the pressure dependence of water permeability for some flat-sheet ultrafiltration membranes has been found to be a function of the porosity and the membrane structure.
Journal ArticleDOI

Sustainability criteria for assessing nanotechnology applicability in industrial wastewater treatment: Current status and future outlook.

TL;DR: To select the most sustainable types of nanomaterials for the real applications and to guide the future studies in this field, the importance of sustainability criteria for the conventional and novel technologies for the treatment of industrial effluents was determined in a general approach assisted by a fuzzy-Delphi method.
Journal ArticleDOI

Contact angles of ultrafiltration membranes and their possible correlation to membrane performance

TL;DR: In this article, the authors used the captive bubble method to describe the wetting characteristics of a number of commercial ultra-filtration (UF) membranes, including polysulphone and cellulose triacetate.
Journal ArticleDOI

Water permeability in ultrafiltration and microfiltration: Viscous and electroviscous effects

TL;DR: The applicability of Darcy's law for explaining the water permeabilities of polymeric UF membranes and ceramic MF membranes was investigated at various temperatures, viscosities, salt concentrations, and trasmembrane pressures as discussed by the authors.
Journal ArticleDOI

Removal of metals from landfill leachate by sorption to activated carbon, bone meal and iron fines.

TL;DR: Sorption filters based on granular activated carbon, bone meal and iron fines were tested for their efficiency of removing metals from landfill leachate, highlighting the need to study the uptake and release of a large number of compounds, not only the target metals.
