Ceramic nanocomposite membranes and membrane fouling: A review
Water Research, 2020Membrane technologies have broad applications in the removal of contaminants from drinking water and wastewater. In recent decades, ceramic membrane has made rapid progress in industrial/municipal wastewater treatment and drinking water treatment owing to their advantageous properties over conventional polymeric membrane. The beneficial characteristics

Nanocomposite Lithium Ion Conducting Membranes
Annals of the New York Academy of Sciences, 2003Abstract: This review describes the properties and characteristics of a class of membranes formed by blends of a lithium salt, LiX, where X is preferably a large soft anion, such as ClO4 or N(CF3SO2)2, and a high molecular weight polymer containing Li+‐coordinating group, such as polyethylene oxide (PEO) with the dispersion of selected ceramic powders,

Development of Nanocomposite Membranes with Photocatalytic Surfaces
Journal of Nanoscience and Nanotechnology, 2012In 2030, 47% of the world population will be living in areas of high water stress (UN World Water Development Report 3, 2009). The global water shortage results in an emerging need for novel, more efficient and cost saving water purification methods. Membrane technology with its very low use of chemical substances and secure retention of contaminants ...

Nanocomposite membranes for the removal of dyes
2022The scarcity of affordable, sustainable, safe, and clean water is one of the major challenges faced by the world. The use of polymeric membranes in wastewater treatment has become a major solution in fighting water scarcity. Some of these membranes (microfiltration, ultrafiltration, and nanofiltration) operate at low pressure when compared to reverse ...

Polymer Nanocomposite Membranes for Antifouling Nanofiltration
Recent Patents on Nanotechnology, 2016Fouling refers to the unwanted and undesirable attachment of biological macromolecules, inorganic, organic matter, and microorganisms on water contact surfaces. Fouling reduces the performance of devices involving these submerged surfaces and is considered the bottle-neck issue for various applications in the biomedical industry, food processing, and ...

A Novel Process for the Fabrication of Nanocomposites Membranes
Journal of Nanoscience and Nanotechnology, 2009The combination of electrospinning and electrospraying techniques for the deposition of inorganic nanoparticles over polymeric nanofibers to create novel multifunctional nanomaterials has been carried out. The combination of these two techniques is essential because by conventional mixing of nanoparticles with polymers and then electrospinning resulted

Ultrapermeable, Reverse-Selective Nanocomposite Membranes
Science, 2002Polymer nanocomposites continue to receive tremendous attention for application in areas such as microelectronics, organic batteries, optics, and catalysis. We have discovered that physical dispersion of nonporous, nanoscale, fumed silica particles in glassy amorphous poly(4-methyl-2-pentyne) simultaneously and surprisingly enhances both membrane ...

Nanocomposite membranes for membrane reactors
2013This chapter discusses nanocomposite membranes in relation to their use in membrane reactors. The concept of hybrid nanocomposites is explained, along with the advantages of using them as a challenging alternative to the organic and inorganic systems that are most frequently used. The chapter further analyses fabrication techniques and characterization

Alumina membranes — templates for novel nanocomposites
Applied Organometallic Chemistry, 1998Three different examples have shown that nanoporous alumina membranes serve as ideal templates for the formation of nanostructured materials and also as a support of those materials in composites. The unique properties of such membranes (transparency, chemical resistivity, thermal stability, adjustable pore sizes etc.) and the very simple mode of ...
