Synthesis of super hydrophilic cellulose-alpha zirconium phosphate ion exchange membrane via surface coating for the rem...

Published in The Science of The Total Environment

In this study, commercial cellulose membranes were surface coated with alpha‑zirconium phosphate nanoparticles (α-ZrP-n) to study their impact on the overall removal efficiency of heavy metals from synthetic metal mixture wastewater solution. A total of four homogeneous solutions (0.25, 0.50, 0.75, and 1.00 wt%) of α-ZrP-n were prepared by sonicati...
