Abstract:

Fluoropolymer membranes are applied in membrane operations such as membrane distillation and membrane crystallization where hydrophobic porous membranes act as a physical barrier separating two phases. Due to their hydrophobic nature, only gaseous molecules are allowed to pass through the membrane and are collected on the permeate side, while the aqueous solution cannot penetrate. However, these two processes suffer problems such as membrane wetting, fouling or scaling. Membrane wetting is a common and undesired phenomenon, which is caused by the loss of hydrophobicity of the porous membrane e

Abstract:

Membrane separation science has enjoyed tremendous progress since the first synthesis of membranes almost 40 years ago, which was driven by strong technological needs and commercial expectations. As a result, the range of successful applications of membranes and membrane processes is continuously broadening. An additional change lies in the nature of membranes, which is now extended to include liquid and gaseous materials, biological or synthetic. Membranes are understood to be thin barriers between two phases through which transport can take place under the action of a driving force, typicall

The influence of a rubber membrane is crucial in a triaxial compression test. Previous research has introduced methods such as compression shell theory and hoop tension theory to suggest a membrane correction for different types of specimen deformation during tests. Latex membranes often do not perform well if sharp particles are present due to membranes being punctured easily. Neoprene/Latex membranes perform better in triaxial compression tests as they are more resistant to punctures. In this research, a maximum error due to membrane performance was calculated for latex and Neoprene/Latex me

Plasmodium undergoes a sophisticated invasion process to enter red blood cells (RBCs), a critical step in its life cycle.

The parasite actively reorganizes its membranes and manipulates those of the host cell to facilitate its entry. Once inside, it resides within a parasitophorous vacuole, a membrane-bound compartment that shields it from the host’s immune defenses while allowing it to exploit host resources. Understand

Abstract:

Fouling characteristics of aerobic submerged membrane bioreactors were analysed under two different membrane materials. Polyethersulfone (PES) membranes were found to foul faster at sub-critical flux than polyolefin (PO) membranes. Physico-chemical characterisation, by means of comparison of extracellular polymeric substances (EPS) and soluble microbial products (SMP) concentrations, as well as the mixed liquor suspended solids (MLSS) concentration were unable to explain the differences in membrane fouling of the contrasting membrane materials. The use of confocal laser scanning microscopy (CL

Abstract:

Ceramic membrane has emerged as a promising material to address the membrane fouling issue in membrane bioreactors (MBR). In order to optimize the structural property of ceramic membrane, four corundum ceramic membranes with the mean pore size of 0.50, 0.63, 0.80, and 1.02 μm were prepared, which were designated as C5, C7, C13, and C20, respectively. Long-term MBR experiments showed that the C7 membrane with medium pore size experienced the lowest trans-membrane pressure development rate. Both the decrease and increase of membrane pore size would lead to more severe membrane fouling in the MBR

Abstract:

Photosynthetic membranes are typically densely packed with proteins, and this is crucial for their function in efficient trapping of light energy. Despite being crowded with protein, the membranes are fluid systems in which proteins and smaller molecules can diffuse. Fluidity is also crucial for photosynthetic function, as it is essential for biogenesis, electron transport, and protein redistribution for functional regulation. All photosynthetic membranes seem to maintain a delicate balance between crowding, order, and fluidity. How does this work in phototrophic bacteria? In this review, we f

Abstract:

Styrenesulfonate grafted multi-walled carbon nanotubes (ss-MWCNTs) were prepared by a simple chemical reaction with soduim 4-styrenesulfonate to reinforce Nafion® membranes for use in direct methanol fuel cells (DMFCs). Although Nafion® membranes have excellent proton conductivity for fuel cell applications, methanol crossover through the Nafion® membrane remains a serious problem for DMFC applications. The prepared ss-MWCNTs had approximately 3.30 wt.% of sulfure and showed styrenesulfonate groups on the ss-MWCNTs. Then, the Nafion® membranes were reinforced with ss-MWCNTs to reduce methanol

Abstract During the past two decades, research on membrane and membrane-based separation process has developed rapidly in water treatment, gas separation, biomedicine, biotechnology, chemical manufacturing and separation process integration. In China, remarkable progresses on membrane preparation, process development and industrial application have been made with the burgeoning of the domestic economy. This review highlights the recent development of advanced membranes in China, such as smart membranes for molecular-recognizable separation, ion exchange membrane for chemical productions, antif

Abstract:

The influence of undecaprenol on phosphatidylcholine macrovesicular bilayer lipid membranes has been studied by electrophysiological techniques. The current-voltage characteristics, ionic transference numbers, the membrane conductance-temperature relationships and the membrane breakdown voltage were measured. The permeability coefficients for Na+ and Cl- ions, the activation energy of ion migration across the membrane, the membrane hydrophobic thickness and the membrane Young's modulus were determined. Undecaprenol increases membrane conductance, membrane capacitance, membrane ionic permeabili

Abstract:

Blood and dialyzer membrane interaction can cause significant thrombocytopenia through the activation of complement system. The extent of this interaction determines the biocompatibility of the membrane. Although the newer synthetic membranes have been shown to have better biocompatibility profile than the cellulose-based membranes, little is known about the difference in biocompatibility between synthetic membrane and modified cellulose membrane. Herein, we report a case of a patient on hemodialysis who developed dialyzer-membrane-related thrombocytopenia with use of synthetic membrane (F200N

Abstract:

Membrane Contactor (MC) is a well-known membrane technology to provide significant advantages required by industries. For MC, a hydrophobic membrane required as a barrier so that liquid absorbent and flue gaseous do not disperse with one another. However, the major concern in hydrophobic membrane is getting swelling by liquid after a short operating period. To minimize the swelling, this study focused on the exploration on membrane fabrication by Thermally Induced Phase Separation (TIPS). As the immersion in solvents is one of the important step to extract the diluent from membranes pores, the
