Low-cost membrane from polyethylene terephthalate bottle waste for water purification and chromium removal: modification and application

River water has become contaminated with numerous hazardous compounds due to the rapid rise in population and industry expansion. Due to unchecked population growth and the improper disposal of electroplating industrial waste, issues with river water filtration and the elimination of chromium contam...
