Impacts of PVDF polymorphism and surface printing micro-roughness on superhydrophobic membrane to desalinate high saline water
(
Elsevier
, 2021 , Article)
Many studies have focused on increasing the superhydrophobicity of membranes to enhance the sustainable desalination capability of membrane distillation (MD) process. This work focuses on the influences of crystalline ...
A polyethylene glycol (PEG) – polyethersulfone (PES)/multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) polymer blend mixed matrix membrane for CO2/N2 separation
(
Springer Science and Business Media B.V.
, 2021 , Article)
Recently, carbon capture utilizing membrane technology has received much attention to limit the adverse effect caused by rising carbon dioxide (CO2) concentration in the atmosphere as they are less energy intensive and ...

(
Elsevier
, 2021 , Article)
This study investigated on the co-pyrolysis of microalgae Chlorella vulgaris and high-density polyethylene (HDPE) waste mixtures which was performed with three types of catalysts, namely limestone (LS), HZSM-5 zeolite, and ...
A review on microwave-assisted synthesis of adsorbents and its application in the removal of water pollutants
(
Elsevier
, 2021 , Article)
The use of conventional heating techniques in adsorbents preparation involves long synthesis time, high energy consumption, high cost and material fast firing. Recently, Microwave heating technique has been used to replace ...
The prospect of synthesis of PES/PEG blend membranes using blend NMP/DMF for CO2/N2 separation
(
Springer Science and Business Media B.V.
, 2021 , Article Review)
Carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions have been the root cause for anthropogenic climate change. Decarbonisation strategies, particularly carbon capture and storage (CCS) are crucial for mitigating the risk of global warming. ...
A prospective concept on the fabrication of blend pes/peg/dmf/nmp mixed matrix membranes with functionalised carbon nanotubes for co2/n2 separation
(
MDPI AG
, 2021 , Article Review)
With an ever-increasing global population, the combustion of fossil fuels has risen immensely to meet the demand for electricity, resulting in significant increase in carbon dioxide (CO2 ) emissions. In recent years, CO2 ...
Modified zeolite/polysulfone mixed matrix membrane for enhanced CO2/CH4 separation
(
MDPI AG
, 2021 , Article)
In recent years, mixed matrix membranes (MMMs) have received worldwide attention for their potential to offer superior gas permeation and separation performance involving CO2 and CH4. However, fabricating defect-free MMMs ...
Synergetic effects of dodecylamine-functionalized graphene oxide nanoparticles on antifouling and antibacterial properties of polysulfone ultrafiltration membranes
(
Elsevier
, 2021 , Article)
The potential use of dodecylamine-functionalized graphene oxide (rGO-DDA) nanoparticles as an antifoulant and antibacterial nanofiller was investigated. GO and rGO-DDA were analyzed using Raman spectroscopy, FTIR, SEM, ...
