Article Synopsis
  • Graphene oxide (GO) is a promising material for membrane technology used in water treatment, and researchers created a mica/GO (MGO) membrane to enhance its properties.
  • The MGO membrane effectively rejects biomolecules like tannic acid and bovine serum albumin, achieving 100% rejection, while also rejecting over 99% of various dye molecules, showcasing its efficiency.
  • The MGO membrane offers significantly improved water permeability and stability, functioning well for up to 60 days in neutral conditions, making it a high-performance option for desalination and purification applications.

Lead is one of the toxic elements in the environment having non-biodegradable behavior. On the other hand, the high contamination of lead in water is a major alarming threat to the world nowadays. In this study, PAN-based porous carbon nanofibers (p-CNFs) were used to adsorb the lead ions for both batch and continuous method.
