Effects of polysulfone support layer on the performance of thin film composite (TFC) membranes
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2012)
[ACCESS RESTRICTED TO THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI AT REQUEST OF AUTHOR.] The performance of thin film composite (TFC) membranes was correlated with the support layers. Polysulfone (PSF) Support layers with additive polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) were...
The modification of PVDF hollow fiber membrane via atom transfer radical polymerization (ATRP)
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2013)
[ACCESS RESTRICTED TO THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI AT AUTHOR'S REQUEST.] This work was focused on the fabrication, modification and characterization of polyvinylidene difluoride (PVDF) hollow fiber membranes (HFMs) produced by a phase inversion...
Modification of polyamide thin film composite reverse osmosis membrane for water desalination
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2016)
[ACCESS RESTRICTED TO THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI AT REQUEST OF AUTHOR.] A novel thin film ZnO-Graphene quantum dots composite reverse osmosis (TFQ-RO) membrane was prepared by the interfacial polymerization of m-phenylenediamine (MPD) and trimesoyl...
Hollow fiber membrane fouling controls in ultrafiltration system
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2018)
[ACCESS RESTRICTED TO THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI AT AUTHOR'S REQUEST.] The world's water shortage problem becomes increasingly serious. However, most of the current water desalination/ purification technologies are energy intensive. Membrane...
Kinetics, mass transfer, and mass re-equilibrium for arsenate adsorption on iron oxide-based carbons
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2018)
[ACCESS RESTRICTED TO THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI AT AUTHOR'S REQUEST.] Removal of arsenic (As) from drinking water sources is much needed worldwide, and small water treatment systems, such as point-of-use (POU) treatment, could be an effective...
Organic-inorganic hybrid materials for arsenic adsorption : surface complexation and intraparticle diffusion
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2020)
[ACCESS RESTRICTED TO THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI AT REQUEST OF AUTHOR.] Arsenic removal through adsorption is one of the most widely applied techniques for arsenic removal from drinking water. Among the numerous arsenic adsorbents that have been...
Studying and developing the thin film membranes for reverse osmosis application
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2018)
[ACCESS RESTRICTED TO THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI AT AUTHOR'S REQUEST.] Desalination by semi-permeable membranes is the most applicable method of water-salt separation, where reverse osmosis (RO) account for the major portion of the overall water...
Plasma treatment effects on resin-based tooth restoration improvements
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2018)
[ACCESS RESTRICTED TO THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI AT AUTHOR'S REQUEST.] The dental restoration is the recovery of the function, integrity and morphology of missing tooth structure using dental restorative materials. Recent years, safety and aesthetic...
