Development of thin film composite (tfc) membranes by interfacial polymerization (ip) process

Abstract

The thin film composite (TFC) has become a commercially important membrane material and have been accepted for a number of applications such as in the desalination of brackish water or seawater and wastewater process. TFC membrane is known to give excellent performance and superior economics as each layer of TFC membrane can be optimized independently. Nowadays, due to inadequate treatment of dye wastewater in textile industry, TFC membranes have become the most promising methods in treating such wastewater. In this study, own formulation TFC membranes were produced and applied in treating reactive dye solution.
