Hydrotalcite incorporated in polyamide layer of RO membrane facilitates the transport water.
Thin film nanocomposite (TFN) reverse osmosis (RO) membranes were prepared by dispersing 3-aminopropyltriethoxysilane (APTES) modified hydrotalcite (HT), designated as A-HT, in aqueous solution and incorporating the nanoparticles polyamide layers during interfacial polymerization process. Results of Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy zeta potential characterization showed successful modification APTES. In addition, suggested that amidation would take place between aminosilane on APTES...
Solar steam generation is considered as one of the most promising technologies for water desalination. The key to its widespread application achieve a simple, scalable, and cost‐effective method fabricate high‐performance solar–thermal material under low solar flux conforming real conditions. Herein, inspired by unique structure natural sugarcane, novel strategy demonstrated construct composed carbon nanotubes sugarcane generation. nanotube layer provides blackbody‐like high absorption...
Reverse osmosis (RO) membranes are susceptible to silica scaling, resulting in irreversible degradation of membrane performance. This work covered the fabrication MIL-101(Fe) for silicic acid adsorption alleviate scaling RO membranes. The effect pH, mixing time and initial concentration on was appraised detail. experiments demonstrated that possessed an excellent ability with maximum capacity reaching 220.1 mgSiO2·g-1. Data fitting confirmed pseudo-second-order equation Freundlich were...
Inorganic scaling and organic fouling remain limiting factors for the further application of reverse osmosis (RO) membranes. Herein, a novel monomer, 2,2′-benzidinedisulfonic acid (BDSA), was selected as comonomer with m-phenylenediamine (MPD) to fabricate RO Compared polyamide (PA) composite membrane, as-prepared PA-BDSA membrane exhibited enhanced surface hydrophilicity smoother, more negative charge (zeta potential −44.4 mV at pH 7). During 24 h antiscaling experiment saturated silica...
