Saranti, Anastasia (author)This thesis constitutes a part of the "IMPRESS" project which is aiming at the production of bio-plastics by utilizing hemicellulosic hydrolysates. The hydrolysate stream, after following the steps of acid hydrolysis and neutralization, consists of monosaccharides (C5/C6 sugars), salt and sugar degradation products. The C5/C6 sugars need to be...master thesis 2021

Lin, B. (author), Heijman, Sebastiaan (author), Shang, Ran (author), Rietveld, L.C. (author)Ceramic nanofiltration (NF) is a newly-developed technology for water recycling, but is still limited to pilot-scale applications. Lacking efficient and eco-friendly strategies for cleaning ceramic NF membrane impedes its scaling-up in industries. Forward flush, backwash and acidic/caustic cleaning are not efficient enough. In this work, a...journal article 2021

van der Poel, S. (author)New techniques are urgently demanded to remove organic micropollutants (OMPs) such as endocrine disrupting compounds, pharmaceuticals and pesticides from our drinking water sources. With increasing salinity of surface waters in coastal regions, salt removal has also become an issue in the production of drinking water. When advanced oxidation...master thesis 2020

Kramer, F.C. (author), Shang, R. (author), Rietveld, L.C. (author), Heijman, Sebastiaan (author)Using ceramic nanofiltration membranes for treatment of municipal sewage is upcoming. However, the knowledge on fouling control methods for this application are very limited. The most commonly used fouling control method, chemical cleaning, has disadvantages. Chemical cleaning negatively impacts (i) the glass seal layer of tubular ceramic...journal article 2020

Caltran, I. (author), Rietveld, L.C. (author), Shorney-Darby, H. L. (author), Heijman, Sebastiaan (author)In drinking water treatment, natural organic matter (NOM) is effectively removed from surface water using ion exchange (IEX). A main drawback of using IEX for NOM removal is the production of spent IEX regeneration brine, a polluting waste that is expensive to discharge. In this work, we studied ceramic nanofiltration as a treatment for the...journal article 2020

van Linden, N. (author), Shang, R. (author), Stockinger, Georg (author), Heijman, Sebastiaan (author), Spanjers, H. (author)The application of zero liquid discharge (ZLD) results in the generation of solid residual streams, which are often not fit for reuse. In this study, we assessed the separation of natural organic matter (NOM) and sodium chloride (NaCl) by nanofiltration (NF), electrodialysis (ED) and ion exchange (IEX) in reverse osmosis brine (RO-brine) and by...journal article 2020

Arun, Anurag (author)In this thesis, direct application of hollow fiber nanofiltration on surface water is suggested as an efficacious method for surface water treatment. This thesis was carried out as a collaborative effort between Lenntech B.V. and TU Delft. The current research aims to assess the performance of these membranes as a potential solution for surface...master thesis 2019

Tang, Shiyu (author)The ceramic Nanofiltration membranes are studied in TU Delft to treat the brine. It has abilities to concentrate NOM and separate it from salts, and chemical precipitation to recover a clean solution with regeneration salt (i.e., NaCl) from the membrane permeate.For achieving this, the first step should build up the Setup. Therefore, this...student report 2019

Floriana Ayumurti Kukuh, Ayu (author)In drinking water production, natural organic matter (NOM) is sometimes removed using ion exchange (IEX) resin. This treatment method has a limitation based on the exchanging capacity on the resin. Therefore, the resin needs to be regenerated when it is saturated with adsorbed NOM which leads to the production of brine. In general, NaCl is used...master thesis 2019

Kramer, F.C. (author)Worldwide population growth, water scarcity, and climate change contribute to an urgent need for alternative water sources for irrigation water, industry water, and, in some countries even, drinking water. The implementation of municipal sewage reclamation is an upcoming trend in water treatment. The use of municipal sewage has the advantage of...doctoral thesis 2019
