I became Water crisis Oil pollutants are among the most important concerns of industriesthe environment In recent years. Researchers from the country’s most prestigious universities have also provided practical, low-cost solutions forWater purification And developing applied techniques using modern technologies.

manufacturing Nanocomposite membranes To separate oil from water

Fatima Hosni, a doctoral student at… Amirkabir University For the technology, nanomembranes separate oil-in-water emulsions with 99% efficiency and high speed, eliminating common problems such as clogging and prolonging processing time. Water purified with these membranes can also be used in various industries, including agriculture, and has positive environmental impacts.

In this project, deposition was done Nanoparticles MIL-101(Cr) and boron nitride nanotubes as a nanocomposite on a copper grid, which increased the membrane lifetime and reduced real samples of Oil wastewater In the Siri Islands from COD 300 ppm to 10 ppm, according to environmental standards.

In addition, thanks to their low cost, availability of raw materials and industrial production capacity, these membranes have generated 3 articles in ISI and are a clear example of the role of universities in solving environmental and industrial problems.
