Gallium, a trace metal not found in its elemental form in nature, has garnered significant interest as a biocide, given its ability to interfere with iron metabolism in bacteria. Consequently, several gallium compounds have been developed and studied for their antimicrobial properties but face challenges of poor solubility and formulation for delivery. Organizing the metal into three-dimensional, hybrid scaffolds, termed metal-organic frameworks (MOFs), is an emerging platform with potential to address many of these limitations.

Trace organic contaminants (TrOCs), including pharmaceutically active compounds (PhACs), present significant challenges for conventional water treatment processes and pose potential risks to environmental and human health. To address these issues, nanofiltration (NF) and reverse osmosis (RO) membrane technologies have gained attention. This study aims to evaluate the performance of NF and RO membranes in removing TrOCs from wastewater and develop a predictive model using the Solution Diffusion Model.
