The need for sustainable water treatment solutions is pressing. One promising avenue is the use of eco-friendly materials in membrane technology. Researchers have successfully created high-performance membranes using a blend of cellulose acetate and cellulose nitrate. This blend serves as a base for thin-film composite membranes, which are crucial for nanofiltration ...

Wastewater laced with phenol is a serious problem. It's tough to clean up using old-school methods. So, scientists decided to test out a new approach. They used a mix of sponge iron and activated carbon in a special reactor. This combo, called Fe&G, showed some impressive results. First off, Fe&G did a better job at cleaning up the wastewater. It removed more of...
