The present study reports an efficient approach for Remazol Black 5 (RB5) dye removal using composite graphitic carbon nitride nanosheets (g-C3N4), polysulfone (PSF), and polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) membranes. The membranes were prepared using the phase inversion method, with varying quantities of g-C3N4 nanosheets ranging from 0.1%, 0.2% to 0.3%. The prepared g-C3N4 nanosheets were characterized by FTIR, SEM analyses, and zeta potential measurements. FTIR and SEM studies, contact angle, water permeability, COD, and dye rejection measurements were used to characterize the g-C3N4 nanosheets embedded in PSF and PVDF membranes. After the addition of 0.3 wt% g-C3N4, the water flux of the 0.3 wt% g-C3N4 embedded PSF membrane was the highest, whereas the water flux of the 0.3 wt% g-C3N4 embedded PVDF membrane was the lowest. The ultrafiltration (UF) membrane's performance with g-C3N4 embedded showed an RB5 rejection rate of more than 80% and a COD removal efficiency of more than 45%. The results of the experimental filtration showed that RB5 rejection reached maximum values of 91.3% for 0.1 wt% g-C3N4/PSF, and 85.6% for 0.3 wt% g-C3N4/PVDF.Article Citation - WoS: 3Citation - Scopus: 3Investigation of the Treatability of Pre-Coagulated Slaughterhouse Wastewater Using Dead-End Filtration(Wiley, 2021-03-15) Ozdemir, Safiye; Uzal, Nigmet; Gokcek, Oznur BegumBACKGROUND In the present study, the performance of the membrane process, one of the advanced treatment methods that can enable the reuse of slaughterhouse wastewater, was evaluated. The wastewater was treated using ultrafiltration (UF) (10, 50 kDa), nanofiltration (NF) (150-300 DA) and reverse osmosis (RO) (500 kDa) membranes alone, and UF + NF, UF + RO membrane combinations at different pressures. In addition to rejection and permeate flux considerations, it was attempted to select the most effective membrane by performing scanning electron microscopy, Fourier transform infrared, contact angle, and atomic force microscopy analyses of the membranes used. RESULTS As a result of the experiments, the highest flux was observed at 5 bar for the 50 kDa UF membrane. When the performances of the sequential application of 10 and 50 kDa UF membranes followed by NF and RO membranes were evaluated, the highest flux was obtained for the sequential application of the 50 kDa UF membrane with the NF membrane as 19.68 and 9.05 L m(-2) h, respectively. CONCLUSION The highest chemical oxygen demand (COD) removal was obtained for the RO membrane at 20 bar as 88.67%, and for the 50 kDa UF + RO sequential application, the COD removal was increased from 70% to 88.67%.
