Improved permeate flux and rejection of ultrafiltration membranes prepared from polyethylene terephthalate (PET) bottle waste
Abstract The vast amount of not-recycled polyethylene terephthalate (PET) bottle waste is a serious threat to the environment.In order to utilize the waste, PET ultrafiltration membranes were prepared using PET bottle waste as the raw material by using the phase inversion technique.Low molecular weight polyethylene glycol (PEG 400) was used as the
