Journal ArticleDOI

Carbon nanotube membranes for desalination and water purification: Challenges and opportunities

TL;DR: In this article, a substantial amount of work have been carried out with impregnation of CNTs (simply as one of the reinforcements for incorporation of better properties like antibiofouling and/or better strength, etc.) in polymer host matrix.
Journal ArticleDOI

Extraction of uranium from the concentrated brine rejected by integrated nuclear desalination plants

TL;DR: In this article, the authors summarise first results of review and research on the possible extraction of uranium from the concentrated brine rejected by integrated nuclear desalination systems, which both partners are currently developing in the two organisations.
Journal ArticleDOI

Nano-ZnO impregnated inorganic–polymer hybrid thinfilm nanocomposite nanofiltration membranes: an investigation of variation in structure, morphology and transport properties

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors showed that there was no interatomic charge transfer between nano-ZnO and host polyamide matrix, indicating that no formation of chemical bonding occurred between them in the skin layers of the membranes.
Journal ArticleDOI

Polyhydroxamic Acid Sorbents for Uranium Recovery

TL;DR: In this paper, a crosslinked polyacrylamides were synthesized by solution polymerization using benzoyl peroxide as the radical initiator, and the water-insoluble polymer obtained was functionalized by reacting with hydroxylamine to convert the amide group into hydroxamic acid group.
Journal ArticleDOI

Development, Characterization and Performance Evaluation of Positively-Charged Thin Film-Composite Nanofiltration Membrane Containing Fixed Quaternary Ammonium Moieties

TL;DR: In this article, a positively-charged thin film composite (TFC) type nanofiltration membranes, bearing fixed quaternary ammonium moieties, have been developed and studied and the effects of variation of chemical compositions and other experimental conditions such as curing temperature and duration of curing on the performances of the membrane were studied.
