Electrospun Nanofiber Membranes as Efficient Adsorbent for Removal of Heavy Metals
2019
This book chapter gives a comprehensive review on the state-of-the-art development of nanofiber membranes as efficient adsorbent for removal of heavy metals in the waste water. The general introduction of heavy metals accumulation in waste water was first introduced, followed by alternatives method to remove heavy metals were discussed. Then, the concept and principles of electrospinning to produce electrospun nanofiber membranes with small fiber diameter and high specific surface area were thoroughly discussed, followed by surface modification on electrospun nanofibers to increase its effectiveness in removing heavy metals ions from the water. Lastly, future perspectives and challenges facing by electrospun nanofiber membranes for removal of heavy metals were later summarized.
