Improving water flux of UiO-66 immobilized on ceramic hollow fiber

The study focused on the development of a modified membrane using a zirconium-based metal–organic framework (UiO-66) to enhance the desalination process in the membrane distillation system. UiO-66 was successfully synthesized on an alumina hollow fiber before fluoroalkylsilane grafting. The effect o...
