Tight ultrafiltration polyethersulfone membrane for cheese whey wastewater treatment

Eman S. Mansor et al.

Summary: A facile method was employed to fabricate tight ultrafiltration membrane for the removal of naturally existed hazard organic substances from surface water and wastewater. By using metal organic framework MOF of cerium (Ce), a new composite membrane was developed to enhance the performance of polyethersulfone (PES) membrane. The study showed that increasing the content of Ce-AnthMOF could significantly enhance the hydrophilicity and permeability performance of the membrane. Testing the membrane for the treatment of whey wastewater showed high removal rates of various pollutants, indicating a promising approach for efficient wastewater treatment.
