Aggregated Nanoparticle Morphology Effects on Membrane Filtration

Abstract: Nanoparticles are considered potential environmental contaminants because of reported toxicity to biota in the environment. As such, there is interest in understanding how to remove nanoparticles from waters. This study investigated membrane filtration behaviors of 70 nm alumina oxide (Al 2 O 3 ) nanoparticle when aggregated under diffusion limited aggregation (DLA) and reaction limited aggregation (RLA) regimes. In this study, nanoparticles were aggregated under conditions of high and low ionic strength to fo… Show more

“…The floc size has a significant effect on membrane fouling and larger floc sizes with stronger strength could significantly alleviate the flux reduction (Xu, Yue et al, 2015). Feng, Zhang et al (2015) reported that the speciation The nanoparticles (NPs) have been widely used in various industries and will inevitably be released into the aquatic eco-systems, posing a potential threat to human health (Feng and Johnson, 2015;Zheng, Zhou et al, 2015). and urban wastewater (Cotillas et al, 2015).…”

“…[15][16][17] On the other hand, the morphology of a membrane is one of the most important characteristics which influences the separation performance of the membrane. [18][19][20] The morphological information in conjunction with thermal and mechanical characteristics and performance data allow to develope a novel approach to predict the characteristics of desired membranes.…”
