Membrane technology has shown a promising role in combating water scarcity, a globally
faced challenge. However, the disposal of end-of-life membrane modules is problematic as …

Polymeric waste is an environmental problem, with an annual world production of
approximately 368 million metric tons, and increasing every year. Therefore, different …

The heavy metal contaminant arsenic exist in the form of arsenite (As (III)) and arsenate (As
(V)) ions. These ions are highly carcinogenic that are usually present in the ground water. To …

Water pollution by heavy metal ions (such as chromium (VI) or cadmium (II)) has become a
threatening issue for environment and human health. As a consequence, efficient ways of …

In this study, polyethersulfone (PES) membranes for desalination were prepared under
different evaporation temperatures. The morphology of the PES membranes was evaluated …

A new design of polymer inclusion membrane has been proposed with the aim of
addressing issues with using common forms of liquid membranes. To do so, a natural deep …

In this article, firstly, the separation and transfer of Au (III) from gold chloride solution was
investigated using a polymer inclusion membrane (PIM) system containing dibutyl carbitol …

Abstract Polymer Inclusion Membranes (PIMs) have been fabricated for diffusive passive
sample layers. A study of various concentrations of plasticizers and characterization of PIM …

Five mathematical models for transport description in polymer inclusion membranes (PIMs)
were presented and compared via regression analysis. The applicability of the models was …

The goal of the present study is to evaluate the effect of plasticizer in PIMs properties and
performance for zinc separation. Membranes were prepared by casting a solution containing …
