Effective separation of salts and dye using egg shell membrane (ESP) incorporated polyethersulfone polymer material

There is a large demand for the utilization of biowaste to separate salts and dyes from wastewater. The biowaste of eggshell membrane (ESM) was derived from chicken eggshell, and the ESM solution in dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) was incorporated into polyethersulfone (PES) membranes to improve their mat...
