Fabrication of chitosan membrane : the effetcs of different polyethylene glycol compositions on membrane performance in oily wastewater treatment

A membrane is a thin layer of material that is capable of separating materials as a function of their physical and chemical properties. It can be categorized by the driving forces employed which are microfiltration, ultrafiltration, nanofiltration and reverse osmosis. Ultrafiltration is chosen to...
