Electrospun alginate nanofibres as potential bio-sorption agent of heavy metals in water treatment
(
Budapest University of Technology
, 2017 , Article)
This paper reports on the potential of electrospun alginate nanofibre membranes to be used for the bio-sorption
of heavy metals from aqueous solutions. Poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO) and its blends were electrospun at an ...
Nanofibrous alginate membrane coated with cellulose nanowhiskers for water purification
(
Springer Verlag
, 2018 , Article)
The aim of this study was to develop a filtration membrane based on two-layered nanoscale alginate nanofibres reinforced with maize cellulose nanowhiskers (diameter between 3 and 12 nm). Reinforcing of the membrane with ...
Electrospun alginate nanofibres impregnated with silver nanoparticles: Preparation, morphology and antibacterial properties
(
Elsevier
, 2017 , Article)
Abstract Silver nanoparticles are amongst the most valuable nanoparticles with interesting properties, such as a non-toxic nature and high antibacterial efficiency, making them applicable for tissue scaffold, protective ...
A review on electrospun bio-based polymers for water treatment
(
Budapest University of Technology
, 2015 , Article)
Over the past decades, electrospinning of biopolymers down to nanoscale garnered much interest to address most of the millennia issues related to water treatment. The fabrication of these nanostructured membranes added a ...
