Effects of Polyethersulfone Membrane Substrate on the Separation Performance of Thin Film Composite Membrane in Biorefinery

This study was aimed to develop a customised thin film composite (TFC) membrane for the separation in biorefinery. After the biomass hydrolysis stage, sugars component (i.e. glucose and xylose) need further refinement to remove any inhibitor (i.e. acetic acid) that can decrease the yield of the prod...
