Polymeric membranes are an energy‐efficient means of purifying water, but they suffer from
fouling during filtration. Modification of the membrane surface is one route to mitigating …

Natural organic matter (NOM) is a common occurrence in all raw waters (eg, surface waters,
groundwater, and wastewater) that are used for freshwater production. NOM is a leading …

Global deterioration of water, soil, and atmosphere by the release of toxic chemicals from the
ongoing anthropogenic activities is becoming a serious problem throughout the world. This …

Natural organic matter (NOM) is present in underground and surface waters. The main
constituents of NOM are humic substances, with a major fraction of refractory anionic …

Natural organic matter (NOM) is produced through metabolic reactions in water supply in
drinking water sources and has been reported to cause several problems including …

Electro-oxidation processes are promising options for the removal of organic pollutants from
water. The major appeal of these technologies is the possibility to avoid the addition of …

The issue of membrane fouling poses a significant challenge to the extensive adoption of
nanofiltration membrane technology in public water supply systems. The occurrence of …

Membrane fouling is a recognized obstacle for the application of ultrafiltration (UF) for
drinking water treatment. In this study, ultraviolet/persulfate (UV/PS) oxidation was employed …

Irreversible membrane fouling is harmful for long-term operation of filtration. In this study, a
novel anti-irreversible fouling polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) membrane was successfully …

Nowadays, integrated microfiltration (MF) membrane systems treatment is becoming widely
popular due to its feasibility, process reliability, commercial availability, modularity, relative …
