Removal of natural organic matter from surface water sources by nanofiltration and surface engineering membranes for fouling mitigation - A review. CHEMOSPHERE 2023; 321:138070. [PMID: 36775036 DOI: 10.1016/j.chemosphere.2023.138070] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 6.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/08/2022] [Revised: 01/25/2023] [Accepted: 02/05/2023] [Indexed: 06/18/2023]
Abstract
Given that surface water is the primary supply of drinking water worldwide, the presence of natural organic matter (NOM) in surface water presents difficulties for water treatment facilities. During the disinfection phase of the drinking water treatment process, NOM aids in the creation of toxic disinfection by-products (DBPs). This problem can be effectively solved using the nanofiltration (NF) membrane method, however NOM can significantly foul NF membranes, degrading separation performance and membrane integrity, necessitating the development of fouling-resistant membranes. This review offers a thorough analysis of the removal of NOM by NF along with insights into the operation, mechanisms, fouling, and its controlling variables. In light of engineering materials with distinctive features, the potential of surface-engineered NF membranes is here critically assessed for the impact on the membrane surface, separation, and antifouling qualities. Case studies on surface-engineered NF membranes are critically evaluated, and properties-to-performance connections are established, as well as challenges, trends, and predictions for the field's future. The effect of alteration on surface properties, interactions with solutes and foulants, and applications in water treatment are all examined in detail. Engineered NF membranes containing zwitterionic polymers have the greatest potential to improve membrane permeance, selectivity, stability, and antifouling performance. To support commercial applications, however, difficulties related to material production, modification techniques, and long-term stability must be solved promptly. Fouling resistant NF membrane development would be critical not only for the water treatment industry, but also for a wide range of developing applications in gas and liquid separations.

Abstract
Cane molasses is a by-product of sugar industry. It is widely used in fermentation field, but pigment compounds affect its further application. In this study, nonpolar hyper-cross-linked adsorption resins (HCARs) were synthesized by pendent vinyl groups cross-linking reaction, and were applied to decolorization of molasses. The correlation between the structure and the decolorization performance of HCARs was studied, and the results showed that the Brunauer-Emmett-Teller (BET) surface area and the pore volume of the resin significantly increased to 574.4 m2·g-1 and 1.40 cm3·g-1 after the Friedel-Crafts alkylation reaction with a catalyst dosage of 2.25% at 343 K for 7 h. Furthermore, the decolorization rate of molasses by the HCAR was 74%, and recycle decolorization performance of the resin was stable. The adsorption kinetics results showed that the pseudo-second-order dynamic model could more realistically reflect the decolorization mechanism of molasses on HCARs, and liquid film diffusion is the main rate-limiting step. The results of fixed-bed experiments show that D-ST-DVB resin has a good decolorization effect and recycling ability. Therefore, it is a feasible strategy for the decolorization of molasses with nonpolar HCAR.

Abstract
The separation of biomacromolecules, mainly proteins, plays a significant role in the pharmaceutical and food industries. Among the membranes' techniques, thin-film nanocomposite nanofiltration membranes are the best choice due to their high energy efficiency, excellent productivity, cost-effective and tuneable properties that have captured the attention of the efficient separation of biomacromolecules, especially from the industrial perspective. The present work directs the efficient separation study of proteins, namely, lysozyme, trypsin, pepsin, bovine serum albumin (BSA), and cephalexin, using a thin-film nanocomposite membrane integrated with Arg-MMT (arginine-montmorillonite) clay nanoparticles. The surface morphology and cross-section images of the TFN membranes were studied using a field emission scanning electron microscope (FE-SEM) and a high-resolution transmission electron microscope (HR-TEM). The thermal stability and hydrophilicity of the membranes were examined using thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) and contact angle, respectively. The surface chemistry of the selective layer has different functional groups that were analyzed using FTIR spectroscopy. The performance of the membranes was studied at different trans-membrane pressures and permeation times. The effect of monomer concentration on the separation performance of the membranes was also studied at different permeation times. The membranes' antibacterial activity was evaluated using the Muller-Hinton disk diffusion method using gram-negative Escherichia coli (E. coli) and gram-positive Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) bacteria. The highest rejection was achieved for BSA up to 98.92 ± 1%, and the highest permeation was obtained against lysozyme feed solution up to 26 L m-2 h-1 at 5 bar pressure. The membrane also illustrated excellent rejection of cephalexin antibiotics with a rejection of 98.17 ± 1.75% and a permeation flux of 26.14 L m-2 h-1. The antifouling study performed for the membranes exhibited a flux recovery ratio of 86.48%. The fabricated thin-film nanocomposite membrane demonstrated a good alternative for the separation of biomacromolecules and has the potential to be used in different sectors of industry, especially the pharmaceutical and food industry.

Abstract
The article considers an improved method for determining the content of magnesium carbonate in the carbonate rock. An adjusted method for determining the content of magnesium carbonate was included in the complete establishment of chemical analysis of limestone, which includes the determination of moisture, impurities insoluble in hydrochloric acid, the amount of one and a half oxides of aluminum and iron, calcium carbonate and magnesium carbonate (advanced method), calcium sulfate, alkali metal oxides of potassium and sodium. The obtained experimental data were entered into a single table and summed up the material balance of all components of the carbonate rock. As a result, it was found that this technique includes the following criteria: it is the most accurate, most accessible, and cheap. The use of adjusted methods for determining the content of calcium and magnesium carbonate in limestone will make it possible to establish the objective chemical composition of the carbonate rock and avoid several technological problems. Namely, the excess of uncontrolled magnesium carbonate contributes to the formation of the liquid phase, which in turn reduces the concentration of chemically active lime and promotes the formation of melts in the lime kiln, deteriorating filtration rates, clogging the evaporating station, and so on. Therefore, having information about the real component composition of limestone, the technologist will be able to adjust the technological process in advance, which will lead to the preservation of natural resources while the quality of finished products will not decrease.

THE SCIENCE OF THE TOTAL ENVIRONMENT 2021; 780:146632.

Abstract
Membrane fouling is an intractable issue in wastewater treatment by nanofiltration (NF) membrane, and alkaline cleaning is the most effective approach to remove organic fouling on NF membrane. However, it was found that pore swelling of NF membrane induced by alkaline cleaning might reduce cleaning efficiency, and it is never quantified and its effect on membrane fouling behavior is still mysterious. In this work, membrane pore swelling effect (~9.7%, increment of effective pore size) induced by alkaline cleaning (pH 11) is confirmed and its effect on fouling behavior of the polyamide NF membrane is investigated based on experimental and modelling results. It is found that the alkali-induced pore swelling phenomenon would disappear after water filtration at neutral pH for 30 min, and if such cleaned membrane is faced by the small foulants during this pore shrinkage period, the concentration polarization and membrane fouling would be severer, and the subsequent alkaline cleaning is less effective because more foulants enter the enlarged pores and are tightly embedded in the membrane. Thus, the irreversible fouling of the NF membrane increases from 20% to 40% while its permeability recovery declines from 100% to 67% after six fouling/cleaning cycles. When an anionic surfactant sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS, 10 mM) is added in the alkaline cleaning solution, the adsorption of SDS in/on the membrane can not only improve its hydrophilicity and negative charge, but also quickly eliminate the alkali-induced pore swelling effect and avoid the accumulation of foulants in the pores, thereby enhancing the antifouling performance of the NF membrane. Using the alkaline SDS cleaning, the irreversible fouling of the NF membrane maintains below 10% while its permeability recovery keeps above 100% in six continuous fouling/cleaning cycles.

Abstract
Nanofiltration (NF) with advantages of high efficiency and low-cost has attracted increasing attentions in bio-separation. However, the large-scale application is limited by the inferior molecular selectivity, low chemical stability and serious membrane fouling. Many efforts, thus, have been devoted in NF materials design for specific applications to enhance the separation efficiency of bio-products and increase membrane life-time, as well as reduce the operating cost. This review summarized the recent progress of NF applications in bio-separation, discussed various demands for NF membrane in the bio-products purification and corresponding material innovations, finally proposed several practical suggestions for future research, which provided directions and guidance toward further product development and process industrialization.

Abstract
Low permeability and chlorine resistance of normal thin-film composite (TFC) membranes restrict their practical applications in many fields. This study reports the preparation of a high chlorine-resistant TFC membrane for forward osmosis (FO) by incorporating corn stalk-derived N-doped carbon quantum dots (N-CQDs) into the selective polyamide (PA) layer to construct a polydopamine (PDA) sub-layer (PTFCCQD). Membrane modification is characterized by surface morphology, hydrophilicity, Zeta potential, and roughness. Results show that TFCCQD (without PDA pretreatment) and PTFCCQD membranes possess greater negative surface charges and thinner layer-thickness (less than 68 nm). With N-CQDs and PDA pretreatment, the surface roughness of the PTFCCQD membrane decreases significantly with the co-existence of microsized balls and flocs with a dense porous structure. With the variation of concentration and type of draw solution, the PTFCCQD membrane exhibits an excellent permeability with low J(reverse salt flux)/J(water flux) values (0.1-0.25) due to the enhancement of surface hydrophilicity and the shortening of permeable paths. With 16,000 ppm·h chlorination, reverse salt flux of the PTFCCQD membrane (8.4 g m-2 h-1) is far lower than those of TFCCQD (136.2 g m-2 h-1), PTFC (127.6 g m-2 h-1), and TFC (132 g m-2 h-1) membranes in FO processes. The decline of salt rejection of the PTFCCQD membrane is only 8.2%, and the normalized salt rejection maintains 0.918 in the RO system (16,000 ppm·h chlorination). Super salt rejection is ascribed to the existence of abundant N-H bonds (N-CQDs), which are preferentially chlorinated by free chlorine to reduce the corrosion of the PA layer. The structure of the PA layer is stable during chlorination also due to the existence of various active groups grafted on the surface. This study may pave a new direction for the preparation of durable biomass-derivative (N-CQD)-modified membranes to satisfy much more possible applications.

Abstract
Saccharide production is critical to the development of biotechnology in the field of food and biofuel. The extraction of saccharide from biomass-based hydrolysate mixtures has become a trend due to low cost and abundant biomass reserves. Compared to conventional methods of fractionation and recovery of saccharides, nanofiltration (NF) has received considerable attention in recent decades because of its high selectivity and low energy consumption and environmental impact. In this review the advantages and challenges of NF based technology in the separation of saccharides are critically evaluated. Hybrid membrane processes, i.e., combining NF with ultrafiltration, can complement each other to provide an efficient approach for removal of unwanted solutes to obtain higher purity saccharides. However, use of NF membrane separation technology is limited due to irreversible membrane fouling that results in high capital and operating costs. Future development of NF membrane technology should therefore focus on improving material stability, antifouling ability and saccharide targeting selectivity, as well as on engineering aspects such as process optimisation and membrane module design.

Abstract
In the juices of sugar beet, the viscosity of the produced viscosity is determined. They contain sugars and non-sugary compounds. If they are in the form of associated or complex compounds, then when their state changes. Well under the action of external factors or at their removal from a solution it is obligatory. Its rheological properties will also change. Therefore, with the help of determining the viscosity, it is possible to conclude the complex processes that take place in juices under the action of the effects of vapor condensation cavitation, namely: the force between Leculiary bonds, the size of molecules, and the length of chemical bonds, etc. The paper presents studies of the influence of vapor-condensation cavitation effects on the change of such rheological properties of cell and diffusion juice as viscosity and surface tension. The viscosity of the steam-treated juice is affected by complex transformational changes that occur with the associated compounds under the effects of vapor-condensation cavitation, which leads to their destruction and this leads to a decrease in their molecular weight and changes in concentration. Studies have shown that with increasing steam consumption for juice processing in the range of 0 – 1.5% by weight of juice the upper tension increases. Such legitimacy is also an indirect confirmation of the processes of destruction of the association. important compounds of diffusion juice under the influence of the effects of steam condensation cavitation.

Abstract
In this study, an efficient method for the purification of resistant dextrin (RD) using membrane filtration and anion exchange resin decolorization was developed, then the purified RD was characterized. In the membrane filtration stage, suspended solids in RD were completely removed, and the resulting product had a negligible turbidity of 2.70 ± 0.18 NTU. Furthermore, approximately half of the pigments were removed. Static decolorization experiments revealed that the D285 anion exchange resin exhibited the best decolorization ratio (D%), 84.5 ± 2.03%, and recovery ratio (R%), 82.8 ± 1.41%, among all the tested resins. Under optimal dynamic decolorization conditions, the D% and R% of RD were 86.26 ± 0.63% and 85.23 ± 0.42%, respectively. The decolorization efficiency of the D285 resin was superior to those of activated carbon and H2O2. Moreover, the chemical characteristics and molecular weight of RD did not change significantly after purification. The nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy of RD showed the formation of new glycosidic linkages that are resistant to digestive enzymes. The superior water solubility (99.14%), thermal stability (up to 200 °C), and rheological properties of RD make it possible to be widely used in food industry.

Int J Mol Sci 2020; 21:ijms21217874. [PMID: 33114195 PMCID: PMC7660631 DOI: 10.3390/ijms21217874] [Citation(s) in RCA: 13] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/05/2020] [Revised: 10/19/2020] [Accepted: 10/20/2020] [Indexed: 01/06/2023] Open
Abstract
This study examines the mechanisms of adsorption of anthocyanins from model aqueous solutions at pH values of 3, 6, and 9 by ion-exchange resins making the main component of heterogeneous ion-exchange membranes. This is the first report demonstrating that the pH of the internal solution of a KU-2-8 aromatic cation-exchange resin is 2-3 units lower than the pH of the external bathing anthocyanin-containing solution, and the pH of the internal solution of some anion-exchange resins with an aromatic (AV-17-8, AV-17-2P) or aliphatic (EDE-10P) matrix is 2-4 units higher than the pH of the external solution. This pH shift is caused by the Donnan exclusion of hydroxyl ions (in the KU-2-8 resin) or protons (in the AV-17-8, AV-17-2P, and EDE-10P resins). The most significant pH shift is observed for the EDE-10P resin, which has the highest ion-exchange capacity causing the highest Donnan exclusion. Due to the pH shift, the electric charge of anthocyanin inside an ion-exchange resin differs from its charge in the external solution. At pH 6, the external solution contains uncharged anthocyanin molecules. However, in the AV-17-8 and AV-17-2P resins, the anthocyanins are present as singly charged anions, while in the EDE-10P resin, they are in the form of doubly charged anions. Due to the electrostatic interactions of these anions with the positively charged fixed groups of anion-exchange resins, the adsorption capacities of AV-17-8, AV-17-2P, and EDE-10P were higher than expected. It was established that the electrostatic interactions of anthocyanins with the charged fixed groups increase the adsorption capacity of the aromatic resin by a factor of 1.8-2.5 compared to the adsorption caused by the π-π (stacking) interactions. These results provide new insights into the fouling mechanism of ion-exchange materials by polyphenols; they can help develop strategies for membrane cleaning and for extracting anthocyanins from juices and wine using ion-exchange resins and membranes.

Abstract
Nanofiltration plays an increasingly large role in many industrial applications, such as water treatment (e.g., desalination, water softening, and fluoride removal) and resource recovery (e.g., alkaline earth metals). Energy consumption and benefits of nanofiltration processes are directly determined by the selectivity of the nanofiltration membranes, which is largely governed by pore-size distribution and Donnan effects. During operation, the separation performance of unmodified nanofiltration membranes will also be impacted (deleteriously) upon unavoidable membrane fouling. Many efforts, therefore, have been directed toward enhancing the selectivity of nanofiltration membranes, which can be classified into membrane fabrication method improvement and process intensification. This review summarizes recent developments in the field and provides guidance for potential future approaches to improve the selectivity of nanofiltration membranes.

Abstract
The existing technology for the purification of diffusion juice and its hardware design has not fundamentally changed over the past four decades. The lack of the necessary theoretical developments and experimental data hinders the development of existing and the development of new technological processes. Therefore, the main direction of improving the purification efficiency of juices of sugar beet production is the disclosure of its unused reserves and their implementation in practice. The scientific problem of choosing the rational direction for improving the technology of juice purification, which ensures the production of consumer granulated sugar in the face of changes in a wide range of quality of raw materials, is relevant and has important economic importance, especially in the context of the transition of beet sugar factories to a market economy. One way to solve it is to make fuller use of the adsorption capacity of calcium carbonate particles while increasing the filtration properties of saturation sediments. Therefore, the study investigates the effect of cavitation effects – vapor condensation and hydrodynamic processing of diffusion juice on the processes of purification of diffusion juice, juices of preliminary defecation, first and second saturations. The analysis of the influence of various effects of cavitation processing of juices from the point of view of improving the purification efficiency, the optimal place of the purification process in the technological scheme of production is established.

Abstract
Loose nanofiltration (NF) membranes with diverse selectivity can meet the great demands in various bioseparation applications. Thus, a facile strategy to tune the properties such as pore size, surface charge, and hydrophilicity of the NF membrane is required to produce tailor-made loose NF membranes without changing the existing production line. Herein, we systematically investigated the post-treatment of the nascent poly(piperazine amide) NF membranes using different reagents (organic acids, weak bases, organic solvents and ionic liquid (IL)). Various characterizations revealed that the skin/separation layer became looser and permeance was promoted with the decrease of salt rejection in varying degrees. It was found that the O/N ratio did not rigorously represent the cross-linking degree of the skin layer, because besides the hydrolysis of the residual acyl chloride impeding the amido bond formation, the breaking of existing amido bonds and the grafting of free trimesoyl chloride molecules on the nascent membranes could also increase the O/N ratio during post-treatments. Then three mechanisms including hydrolysis, swelling rearrangement and capping reaction effects were proposed to better understand the membrane properties variations. All these effects resulted in larger pore size of the NF membrane, and the hydrolysis/capping effect might increase negative charge and hydrophilicity on the membrane, while the swelling rearrangement could produce less defective skin structure. These three effects might be involved together during a single treatment. Finally, the NF membrane post-treated by N-hexane could efficiently separate antibiotics and NaCl with the highest permeate flux, whereas the one post-treated by ionic liquid outperformed others for the decoloration of cane molasses (much more efficient than NF270, DL, and NTR7450 membranes). The long-term operating stability of the post-treated membranes selected was also confirmed by a continuous crossflow filtration for 15 h with regular alkaline cleaning.
