The synthesis and characterization of Cu-, Al-, Zn-, Ni-, Mn- complexes as substitutes for the Cr- and Co-complex acid azo dyes with lower toxicity was carried out and the subsequent use of ultra-filtration was studied with the aim of purifying the metal complex dyes and thus increasing dye strength and solubility and additionally reducing the free metal present in the final dye. A drastic reduction in the content of inorganic additives and free metal was achieved by the ultra-filtration process. The ultra-filtrated and non-ultra-filtrated dyes were used to dye wool and nylon fabrics. Color measurements and fastness properties were performed on the dyeings produced on wool and polyamide and compared with the Cr-complex dyeing, thus examining the possibility of using successfully these complex dyes as possible replacement of the Cr- and Co-complex dyes.

Natural Organic Matter (NOM) content in peat water is a major problem of membrane fouling in ultrafiltration (UF). For that, two stages adsorption as pre-treatment was employed to minimize the membrane fouling of NOM content. This research was carried out to investigate the effect of two stages adsorption on ultrafiltration performance for NOM removal that remains in peat water. This method was using powdered activated carbon (PAC) dosage of 80, 160, 240, 320, 400, 480, 560, 640, 720, 800, 880 dan 960 mg.L-1. Then, Polysulfone (Psf) material was employed for Ultra filtration process. Membrane was applied in a dead-end mode with various operating pressure (1; 1.5; 2; 2.5; 3 bar). As a results, the optimum dose of PAC was 800 mg L-1 with dosage ratio of 3/4:1/4. Two stages adsorption-UF PSf provided the range from 86.9 to 92.8% of KMnO4 and 74.1-88.1% of UV254. For the experimental condition of 3 bar, the highest flux was achieved up to 39.919 L h-1.m-2.

In this paper the reclamation and reuse of municipal secondary effluents, as well as the reclamation and recycling of refinery secondary effluents, are technically and economically evaluated. It is shown that both practices are feasible and sustainable, and that the reclamation costs depend largely on specific circumstances such as legal requirements, price policy, reuse application, raw water composition, etc. The reclaimed water is reused, or respectively recycled, as boiler make-up. Therefore both reclamation plants employ advanced multi-barrier systems including ultra-filtration and reverse osmosis. The employed processes have shown excellent performance with regard to the removal of critical parameters such as silica. For example, this parameter was reduced from 13 mg/l in the raw water to 7 μg/l in the boiler make-up.

Water pollution comprises all of those compounds that change the quality of groundwater and surface water, therefore reducing the suitability of natural water for human use and other vital processes. These compounds result from human activities, especially those that are industrial, agricultural and domestic.The polyamide thin film composite reverse osmosis membranes become important in desalination of sea water and brackish water or waste water. However the polyamide reverse osmosis membranes tend to fouling due to their hydrophobic and rough surfaces. In this study flux and rejection of waste water from aluminum production industry were obtained during filtration process by using modified commercial composite membranes. Amount of fouling was evaluated with unmodified and modified membranes. Rejection of iron particles and PH of feed and permeate solutions were determined after filtration process. Results shows that modified membranes were performed higher metal ion rejection and antifouling performance than unmodified membranes.

Modernization in water technology plays a major role in ensuring a clean, safe, and feasible supply of drinking water. Enhancing performance in terms of price and quality, flow ability of the plant, sustainable development; integrated membrane processes have been developed. The most crucial issues found in RO applications such as concentration polarization and membranes fouling are reduced by using this integration of membranes. Conventional reverse osmosis filtration has sand and coke filters as pre filters. In this work these pre filters have been replaced by ultra-filtration which ensures undoubtedly the best quality of water despite the quality of feed with low power consumption and chemicals. These integrated systems are the better thing for complete elimination of microorganism and water contaminants in their category of selection. The present work also contributes on water quality analysis for brackish water using both the above desalination membrane technology. This integrated system can be remotely monitored and self-adapted model-based control.
