November 1, 2009 to
July 25, 2011
The objective of this study is to prepare and characterize carbon membranes, assess their filtration performance and compare the performance with commercial products. The preparation of the carbon membrane involves coating a slurry of powdered activated carbon mixed with binder on biomass fly ash filter supports. The characterization will be carried out by studying the pore profile, morphology, hydrophilicity, permeability etc. Filtration performance will be assessed by using model feed solutions containing contaminants such as E coli, polysaccharides, humic acids, phenol.Water quality monitoring and low cost purification strategies for inland waterways of low-lying areas: Guidance to Nansen Environmental Research Centre for showcase project
