Concentrating PFAS waste streams: generated during drinking water treatment

Globally, drinking water sources are polluted with poly- and perfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS). The toxicity and persistent properties of these industrial chemicals raised concerns about environmental and public health. As a result, drinking water companies are removing PFAS from drinking water using separation technologies. Anion exchange and...

Adsorption and cake layer fouling in relation to Fenton cleaning of ceramic nanofiltration membranes

Catalytic ceramic nanofiltration (NF) is a promising technology for direct wastewater reclamation, given its high separation selectivity and reactive surfaces for oxidative removal of fouling. A better understanding of the relation between fouling types and oxidative cleaning efficacy under high organic loading conditions is of practical...
