Integration of Different Sintering Temperature of Hydroxyapatite and Polyethersulfone Membrane for Fouling Mitigation

Abstract:

This study aimed to investigate the effects of hydroxyapatite integration with polyethersulfone (PES) membrane towards fouling mitigation. PES membrane were modified through self- assembly technique with hydroxyapatite (form fish sclaes) which prepared at different sintering temperatures. This composite membrane were characterized concerning on permeability coefficient, membrane porosity, ATR-FTIR analysis fouling quantification. Overall results showed that PES membrane incorporated with hydroxyapatite sintered at 300°C (PES/FSHAp-300) promoted an excellent characteristics and performance. The membrane demonstrated high permeability coefficient and membrane porosity for about 93.52 L/m².h and 89.78%, respectively. This kind of membrane was also presented the highest flux recovery ratio around 83.3% and this findings can be a good pathway for the design of low fouling membrane for enzyme separation.
