Antifouling polysulfone membranes blended with green SiO2 from rice husk ash (RHA) for humic acid sep

This study investigated the effects of silica prepared from rice husk (RHA) as an antifouling additive in the polysulfone (PSf) membrane. The ultrafiltration mixed matrix PSf/rice husk silica (RHS) flat-sheet membrane was prepared via phase inversion technique at different percentages of silica concentration. The chara...

Fabrication of low cost, green silica based ceramic hollow fibre membrane prepared from waste rice hu

In order to develop low cost ceramic membranes and effectively utilize abundantly and dumped waste agriculture, fabrication of green silica based ceramic hollow fibre membranes from waste rice husk was evaluated. Rice husk was converted into amorphous and crystalline silica based rice husk ash (ARHA and CRHA) by burnin...

A novel green ceramic hollow fiber membrane (CHFM) derived from rice husk ash as combined adsorbent-s

A new application of green ceramic hollow fiber membrane (CHFM) derived from rice husk ash (RHA) for efficient heavy metals removal has been developed. A common and advanced fabrication method, i.e. combined phase inversion and sintering technique was used to produce the membrane with high flux. Thereby, the membrane c...
