Membrane filtration may be a powerful tool in disinfection of surface water for drinking water production.
In addition water permeation through the membrane varied with temperature suggesting that the membrane matrix continuously underwent reversible structural modification by the combined effect of water and temperature.
Compared with conventional membranes, this multifunctional membrane is capable of concurrently filtering water and removing water pollutants to produce clean water without membrane fouling.
Using long slots and careful control of the flow through the membrane it is possible to filter deforming particles such as oil drops from water.
Combining membrane filtration with another water/wastewater treatment method in a hybrid process is a promising way of improving the overall membrane operation.
Combining their excellent efficiency and water permeability, these membranes offer an ideal solution to filter both air and water pollutants.
In this study, a nature-inspired membrane with a highly charged surface is proposed as an effective membrane for the filtration of saline water.
Such mechanical properties make this novel membrane usable as a self-standing filter device.
The M#1 membrane showed the best performance, which indicated that membrane modification could indeed enhance the overall membrane performance for water treatment.
Ceramic membranes may be considered to be applicable to treat spent filter backwash water as well as source water in public water supply.
