“…The first aim of this study was to execute a comprehensive scientometric approach regarding the research performed in the field of industrial effluent and sludge toxicity. The results indicate that only 1038 bibliographic documents have been published between 1951 to 2020, which is quite a low number for a relatively long time, especially compared to the other scientometric studies [ 16 , 19 ]. This may reveal the urgent need for more research and effort in this area to have a scientific-based conclusion about the toxicity of the effluents and sludge from various industrial origins.…”

“…Scientometry is considered as a highly beneficial tool that measures and analyses scientific literature, aiming at investigating the history of science in a specific field and monitoring the active bodies worldwide, as well as the most important issues (as keywords) to focus on for future studies [ 16 , 17 , 18 ]. Hence, scientometric analysis can demonstrate the efforts performed in any specific field and mark existing barriers, milestones, and trends in the study field.…”

The growth of industrialization has led to an increase in the production of highly contaminated wastewater. Industrial wastewater contains highly complex compounds varying in characteristics and required to be treated before its discharge into a water medium from various industries. However, the efficiency of the treated wastewater from the toxicity reduction perspective is unclear. In order to overcome this barrier, toxicity assessment of the industrial wastewater before and after treatment is crucial. Thus, in this study, a scientometric analysis has been performed on the toxicity assessment of industrial wastewater and sludges, which have been reported in the literature. Web of Science (WoS) core collection database has been considered the main database to execute this analysis. Via the search of pre-researched keywords, a total number of 1038 documents were collected, which have been published from 1951 to 2020. Via CiteSpace software and WoS analyser, these documents went under analysis regarding some of the scientometry criteria, and the detailed results obtained are provided in this study. The total number of published documents on this topic is relatively low during such a long period of time. In conclusion, the need for more detailed contributions among the scientific and industrial communities has been felt.

“…Hence, formulating and designing advanced membranes with increased mechanical integrity and robustness to appropriately address these two challenges, as mentioned above, while mitigating the fabrication and processing cost, have been an active area of research in the membrane community over the past few years. [20][21][22][23][24][25][26] Nevertheless, the RO and NF membranes with ultra-permeable selective layers, high rejection of species, and antifouling characteristics with robust module design are also desirable to lessen the specific energy consumption (SEC) in the water desalination industry.…”

The emergence of biomimetic materials developed using nature's inspiration and biological domains can drive a paradigm shift in the design and operation of future‐generation materials in separation applications. In recent years, biomimetic membranes have drawn interest of many researchers for water treatment applications. Among the biomimetic membranes, protein‐based membranes, specifically those synthesized by aquaporin, have received much attention in recent years due to their high osmotic water permeability and excellent ability to remove small molecules, thereby overcoming the trade‐off between the water flux and the contaminant's rejection. The separation efficiency and fouling properties are significantly improved by taking advantage of the strategies evolved in nature. This review provides a comprehensive overview of the state‐of‐the‐art aquaporin‐based biomimetic membranes (ABMs), mainly focusing on their synthesis, characterization, and performance as selective layer in composite membranes for reverse osmosis, nanofiltration, and forward osmosis for water desalination. Fabrication methods and characterization techniques of ABMs and their performance in water desalination are also reviewed, while the main obstacles for their successful commercial viability in wastewater treatment are provided. The applications of ABMs in various separation processes other than water desalination and their potential market are presented to inspire future researchers in this versatile area.

“…The increasing trend of using of fossil fuels, together with the environmental consequences attributed to the use of conventional resources such as pollution and global warming, on one hand, along with population growth and the energy insecurity triggered by political and economic effects, are some of the most important related issues at global scale (Höök and Tang, 2013). Therefore, one of the most important goals of researchers has been to strive for environmental goals in energy production and moving towards sustainable development in various fields (Davarazar et al, 2019(Davarazar et al, , 2020Kamali et al, 2019;Zandi et al, 2019). Globally, more than 50% of the total population are living in the cities (Kullman et al, 2016).…”
