Polyethersulfone (PES) membranes are prevalent in the field of water treatment owing to their exceptional separation efficiency, robust mechanical properties, and resistance to chemical degradation. Nevertheless, these membranes are prone to fouling, resulting in a decrease in both flux and ultrafiltration efficiency. In the present study, PES membranes are blended with poly (3‐Sulfopropyl Methacrylate) (PSPMA) in various weight percentages (0%–3%) to improve their antifouling and ultrafiltration properties. The physicochemical properties of the blended membranes, including surface morphology, contact angle, hydrophilicity and surface energy are evaluated. The findings indicate that incorporation PSPMA results in an enhancement of the hydrophilic properties and surface charge of the PES membranes, assessed by employing Bovine Serum Albumin (BSA) as a representative protein. Modified blended membranes display greater Flux Recovery Ratio (FRR%) and exhibit superior fouling resistance. Under the same experimental conditions (0.2 MPa applied pressure), a pure water flux of 154.18 L·m−2·h−1 for PES/PSPMA membrane found substantially greater than pure PES membrane (103.52 L·m−2·h−1) along with Total Fouling Ratio (TFR) of 36% and 64.9% respectively. Exceptional antimicrobial efficacy for modified membranes is revealed against Escherichia coli (E. coli) and Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) using disc diffusion technique rendering them well‐suited for water treatment applications.

The presence of heavy metals in the environment is undeniably harmful and toxic to living things, where the presence of Pb(II) inside human foods and drinks results in various diseases. The use of adsorption as a method of wastewater treatment is widespread, and effective adsorption performance depends on appropriate adsorbent selection. In this research, dendritic fibrous type SBA-15 (DFSBA-15) was prepared and used for lead (Pb(II)) adsorption. The physicochemical properties of the DFSBA-15 were characterized using TEM, BET, and FTIR. The characterization analyses confirmed the formation of fibrous morphology, moderate surface area, and bulk -OH. Several factors, including contact time (min), adsorbent dosage (g/L), pH, and initial concentration (mg/L), were examined for Pb(II) adsorption. The best adsorption performance (89.88%) was attained at 180 min, 1 g/L of adsorbent dosage, pH 5, and 100 mg/L of Pb(II) initial concentration. Pseudo-second-order reaction type and Langmuir isotherm provided good fits to the experimental data, with R2 ≥ 0.9943 and R2 = 0.9982, respectively. In short, the DFSBA-15 exhibits great potential for excellent Pb(II) removal.

“…A ROM is a composite structure usually composed of a top polyamide dense layer and a lower ultrafiltration membrane [ 8 , 9 , 10 ], wherein the top layer is formed by the interfacial polymerization of small molecular monomer trimethylene chloride (TMC) and m-phenylenediamine (MPD) with a thickness of 50–200 nm, and the lower layer is composed of a polysulfone porous support layer and polyester non-woven fabric to achieve high water permeability and good mechanical properties [ 11 , 12 ]. Generally speaking, the structure of the polyamide dense layer determines its desalting performance and antipollution performance.…”

Reverse osmosis membrane (ROM) technology has a series of advantages, such as a simple process, no secondary pollution, high efficiency, energy saving, environmental protection, and good separation and purification effects. High-performance semi-aromatic polyamide reverse osmosis membranes (ROMs) were prepared by interfacial polymerization (IP) of novel cyclopentanecarbonyl chloride (CPTC) and m-phenylenediamine (MPD) monomers. The surface morphology, hydrophilicity and charge of the ROMs were characterized by field-emission scanning electron microscopy (SEM), a contact angle tester and a solid-surface zeta potential analyzer. The effects of CPTC concentration, MPD concentration, oil-phase solvent type, IP reaction time and additive concentration on the performance of semi-aromatic polyamide ROMs were studied. SEM morphology characterization showed that the surface of the prepared polyamide ROMs presented a multinodal structure. The performance test showed that when the concentration of MPD in the aqueous phase was 2.5 wt.%, the concentration of sodium dodecylbenzene sulfonate (SDBS) was 0.2%, the residence time in the aqueous phase was 2 min, the concentration of CPTC/cyclohexane in the oil phase was 0.13 wt.%, the IP reaction was 20 s, the NaCl rejection rate of the semi-aromatic polyamide ROM was 98.28% and the flux was 65.38 L/m2·h, showing good desalination performance. Compared with an NF 90 commercial membrane, it has a good anti-BSA pollution ability.
