Identification of Membrane Fouling with Greywater Filtration by Porous Membranes: Combined Effect of Membrane Pore Size and Applied Pressure

open access: yesMembranes
Membrane fouling caused by complex greywater synthesized by personal care products and detergents commercially available for household applications was investigated using dead-end microfiltration (MF) and analyzed systematically by a multistage Hermia ...

A Self‐Cleaning Solar Evaporator Based on MXene/Aramid Nanofiber Aerogels for Efficient Water Desalination

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
This study develops a self‐cleaning solar evaporator based on MXene‐coated aramid nanofiber aerogels for efficient desalination under high‐salinity conditions. The cylindrical evaporator combines strong photothermal conversion, capillary water transport, and self‐rotation triggered by salt accumulation.

Capacitance spectroscopy to characterize organic fouling of electrodialysis membranes [PDF]

open access: yes, 1999
Fouling of electrodialysis membranes by anionic organic substances is a widely recognized problem. We report a method to characterize fouling of anion-exchange membranes by dissolved anionic organic macromolecules (sulfonated lignin).

Multi‐Parametric Fluorescence Spectroscopy for the Detection and Characterization of Plant‐Derived Protein Residues on 316L Stainless Steel

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
UV–vis fluorescence spectroscopy enables sensitive monitoring of plant protein adsorption on AISI 316L stainless steel under food‐processing‐relevant conditions. Spectral deconvolution reveals adsorption‐induced changes associated with protein–surface interactions and conformational alterations, demonstrating the potential of the technique for ...

Thermal and Chemical Analysis of Fouling Phenomenon in Condensers for Cooling Tower Applications [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Brazed plate heat exchanges (BPHEs) and tube-in-tube heat exchangers (TTHEs) are commonly used in the refrigeration, air conditioning, and food industry as refrigerant-to-water condensers, in which refrigerant rejects heat to water circulating in cooling

Control of Bacterial Attachment on Macroporous PDMS/Paraffin SLIPS With Varying Lubricant Viscosity

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
Slippery liquid‐infused porous surfaces (SLIPS) prepared from macroporous PDMS, infused with medical‐grade paraffins, were systematically investigated regarding the correlation of viscosity, surface corrugation, bulk porosity, and bacterial resistance. Substrate porosity was found to dominate lubricant stabilization and the antifouling activity.

Fouling-resistant reverse osmosis membranes grafted with 2-aminoethanethiol having a low interaction energy with charged foulants

open access: yesnpj Clean Water
Many fouling-resistant materials have been grafted or coated on the RO membrane surface for fouling-resistance. However, these modified RO membranes still exhibit a fast flux drop towards small charged organic foulants.
