Fabrication and optimization performance for treatment of ship oily water by nanocomposite membranes using Taguchi method

The objectives of this study were to optimize of ultrafiltration (UF) process using novel nanocomposite membrane for oily water treatment in cruise-ship. Three nanocomposite membranes consisted of polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) polymer, Zeolite Socony Mobil–5 (ZSM5) nanofiller, and N-methyl-2-pyrrol...
