In this work, novel loose nanofiltration (NF) hollow fiber membranes with ultrahigh water permeability and well-defined nanopore surface charge characteristics were developed for effective fractionation of dyes inorganic salts in textile wastewater treatment. The as-spun NF possesses a high pure (PWP) 80 L·m-2·h-1·bar-1 small pore size 1.0 nm diameter MWCO 1000 Da. modification by means hyperbranched polyethylenimine (PEI) further lowers the to 0.85 680 membrane also becomes more hydrophilic...
This study investigates a new approach to fabricate thin-film composite (TFC) hollow fiber membranes via interfacial polymerization for forward osmosis (FO) applications. Different degrees of sulfonation polyphenylenesulfone (PPSU) were adopted as membrane substrates investigate their impact on water flux. It has been established that the degree plays role in both creating macrovoid-free structure and inducing hydrophilicity bring about higher fluxes. The fabricated exhibit extremely high...
This study has demonstrated the application of tight ultrafiltration (UF) membranes for effective removal textile dyes from water at a low pressure. Novel UF hollow fiber with well-defined nanopores and surface charges were developed via single-step spinning process without any post-treatment. The newly fibers not only possess small mean pore diameter 1.0-1.3 nm molecular weight cutoff (MWCO) 1000-2000 Da but also have high pure permeability (PWP) 82.5-117.6 L m-2 h-1 bar-1. Through...

Abstract Polyphenylenesulfone (PPSU) and sulfonated polyphenylenesulfone (sPPSU) are widely used for liquid separations in the medical food industries. However, their potential applications gas separation have not been studied extensively owing to low intrinsic permeability. We report here first time that blending with sPPSU can significantly improve performance of highly permeable polymers microporosity (PIMs), specifically PIM‐1, because strong molecular interactions sulfonic acid groups...
