• Novel thin-film composite nanofiltration hollow fiber membranes with double repulsion for effective removal of emerging organic matters from water (2012, background): “major separation mechanisms of NF involve a steric (size exclusion) effect and an electrostatic partitioning interaction (Donnan exclusion) between the membrane and an external solution [6,7].”
• Polyethyleneimine (PEI) cross-linked P84 nanofiltration (NF) hollow fiber membranes for Pb2+ removal (2014, background): “Because the separation mechanisms include both size exclusion (due to pore size) and Donnan exclusion (due to surface charge) [14–16], NF membranes usually require lower operation pressures than RO but still have a high water flux and a reasonably high salt rejection [7,17].”
• Organic fouling of forward osmosis membranes: Fouling reversibility and cleaning without chemical reagents (2010, background): “Numerous studies have been conducted to elucidate themechanisms governing the fouling of pressure-driven membranes and to alleviate fouling by, for example, pretreating feedwater, improving the antifouling properties ofmembranes, and optimizing operating conditions [3–7].”
• Layer-by-layer assembly of graphene oxide membranes via electrostatic interaction (2014, methodology): “In fact, the LbL technique has proven very useful for assembling oppositely charged polyelectrolytes to form thin films or coatings for membranes used in pervaporation [16,17], NF [18–22], solvent resistant NF [23], reverse osmosis [18,24], and forward osmosis (FO) [19,25–28].”
• Fabrication and characterization of cellulose nanofiber based thin-film nanofibrous composite membranes (2014, background): “Therefore, the CN-TFNC membrane exhibited excellent anti-fouling tendency to sodium alginate, probably due to the repulsive force between the negatively charged membrane surface and sodium alginate [58–60].”
