Dynamic Modeling of Fouling in Reverse Osmosis Membranes

open access: yesMembranes, 2021
During reverse osmosis (RO) membrane filtration, performance is dramatically affected by fouling, which concurrently decreases the permeate flux while increasing the energy required to operate the system.

Optimization study of the fouling build-up on a RO membrane for pretrated olive mill wastewater purification [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Even though membranes are considered in many aspects a mature technology, a range of features are still in development and under investigation. Regarding this, the main handicap of this technology is inevitably membrane fouling.

Mechanisms of parasite‐mediated disruption of brain vessels

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Parasites can affect the blood vessels of the brain, often causing serious neurological problems. This review explains how different parasites interact with and disrupt these vessels, what this means for brain health, and why these processes matter. Understanding these mechanisms may help us develop better ways to prevent or treat brain infections in ...

Evolution of Membrane Performance During the Ultrafiltration of Reactive Black 5 Solutions: Effect of Feed Characteristics and Operating Pressure

open access: yesChemical Engineering Transactions, 2012
In the present work, the feasibility of the ultrafiltration (UF) technology for the removal of a hazardous azo reactive dye, Reactive Black 5 (RB5), was studied. A tubular UF ceramic membrane was used to filter RB5 aqueous solutions.

The newfound relationship between extrachromosomal DNAs and excised signal circles

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Extrachromosomal DNAs (ecDNAs) contribute to the progression of many human cancers. In addition, circular DNA by‐products of V(D)J recombination, excised signal circles (ESCs), have roles in cancer progression but have largely been overlooked. In this Review, we explore the roles of ecDNAs and ESCs in cancer development, and highlight why these ...
