Effect of thickness of porous polysulfone membranes on removal of ferum ions / Norin Zamiah Kassim Shaari, Nabilla Mohamed Zaimy and Nurul Aida Sulaiman

Membrane separation has been widely used in the removal of heavy metal from wastewater. Chemical precipitation, ion exchange, and adsorption are the examples of conventional treatment that have significance disadvantages which are incomplete removal and high energy consumption, thus lead to dispo...
