    High-Performance Polyether Sulfone (PES) Membranes Modified With Sunflower Seed Shell-Derived Activated Carbon (SSAC)@zif-11 Nanoparticles for Enhanced Antibiotic Removal and Antifouling Properties
    (Elsevier, 2025) Alafi, Narges Mortazazad; Barzegar, Behrad; Habibi, Rezvan; Aghdasinia, Hassan; Altinkaya, Sacide Alsoy; Barzegar, B.
    This study investigates the impact of incorporating a novel composite filler on the antibiotic removal efficiency and protein fouling resistance of polyether sulfone (PES) membranes. The filler was synthesized from activated carbon derived from sunflower seed shells (SSAC) and modified with zeolitic imidazolate framework-11 (ZIF-11). The adsorption capacities of the composite for two model antibiotics, tetracycline (TC) and rifampicin (RP), were evaluated. Mixed matrix membranes were fabricated using the phase inversion method with varying SSAC@ZIF11 contents (0.2-1 wt%). The membrane containing 0.8 wt% SSAC@ZIF-11 exhibited improved structural and surface characteristics, including increased porosity, larger pore size, smoother morphology, and enhanced hydrophilicity, as reflected by a reduction in contact angle from 60.72 degrees to 46.45 degrees. At this optimal loading, the pure water flux increased significantly from 10.52 to 39.1 L/m2h. Moreover, the modified membrane demonstrated outstanding removal efficiencies for TC (99.12 %) and RP (89.9 %), alongside excellent antifouling performance, as indicated by a flux recovery ratio increase from 42.85 % to 99.74 %. These results confirm the potential of SSAC@ZIF-11 as an effective nanofiller for developing high-performance PES membranes in advanced water purification applications.

    Enhanced Performance and Anti-Fouling Properties of Polyether Sulfone (pes) Membranes Modified With Pistachio Shell-Derived Activated Carbon (psac)@zif-8&zif To Remove Dye Contaminants
    (Elsevier, 2024) Shakeri, Neda; Barzegar, Behrad; Habibi, Rezvan; Aghdasinia, Hassan; Altinkaya, Sacide Alsoy
    This study aims to improve the properties of polyether sulfone (PES) membranes by using an innovative composite filler. Pistachio shell-derived activated carbon (PSAC) was initially synthesized via chemical activation, followed by surface modification with ZIF-8 and ZIF-67. Subsequently, modified membranes with varying weight percentages of this composite were fabricated using the phase inversion method. The PSAC@ZIF-8&ZIF-67/PES membranes were characterized through FESEM, AFM, pore size, zeta potential, porosity, and water contact angle analyses. The incorporation of the composite in the membranes was confirmed through ATR-FTIR, XRD, and EDS mapping analyses. The finding indicated that adding 0.6 wt% of nanoparticles improved membrane hydrophilicity, increased surface charge, and enhanced porosity. Additionally, the mixed membranes exhibited reduced sedimentation and higher dye removal than unmodified membranes. The optimum amount of composite is determined as 0.6 wt%. At this condition, pure water flux (PWF) increased dramatically from 22.56 L/m2h to 96.26 L/m2h. The mixed matrix membrane demonstrated superior efficiency in removing malachite green (MG) (97 %) and crystal violet (CV) dyes (93 %) and achieved the highest recovery ratio of 61.9 %, indicating a more remarkable membrane ability to combat fouling. The developed membrane demonstrated enhanced hydrophilicity, dye removal efficiency, and antifouling properties, making it promising for environmental applications.

    Editors’ Foreword
    (CRC Press, 2017) Figoli, A.; Hoinkis, Jan; Altinkaya, Sacide Alsoy; Bundschuh, Jochen
    The book focuses on Application of Nanotechnology in Membranes for Water Treatment but not only provides a series of innovative solutions for water reclamation through advanced membrane technology but also serves as a medium to promote international cooperation and networking for the development of advanced membrane technology for Universal well-being and to achieve the common goal of supplying economically, environmentally and societally sustainable freshwater and better sanitation systems. This book is unique because the chapters were authored by established researchers all around the globe based on their recent research findings. In addition, this book provides a holistic coverage of membrane development for water treatment, from the membrane preparation and characterizations to the performance for specific processes and applications. Since that water scarcity has become a global risk and one of the most serious challenges for the scientific community in this century, the publication of this book is therefore significant as it will serve as a medium for a good reference of an alternative solution in water reclamation. This book will provide the readers with a thorough understanding of the different available approaches for manufacturing membranes both with innovative polymeric systems and inorganic nano-materials which could give enhanced functionalities, catalytic and antimicrobial activities to improve the performance of the existing membranes. It will be useful for leading decision and policy makers, water sector representatives and administrators, policy makers from the governments, business leaders, business houses in water treatment, and engineers/ scientists from both industrialized and developing countries as well. © 2019 Elsevier B.V., All rights reserved.
