Simple, fast, and accurate detection of food freshness is of considerable significance to
ensure food safety. The pH values of foods can be good indicators of their freshness, which …

In the present work, we developed a hybrid membrane via phase inversion process
composed from polysulfone (PSF), cellulose nanocrystals (CNCs), and polyaniline (PANI) …

A simple and feasible method was adopted to construct the antibacterial and pH response of
cationic guar gum (CGG) composite films (CGG-HEC, RC) through using hydroxyethyl …

Discharge of oil-containing wastewater can pollute the aquatic environment, because oil can
inhibit the supply of oxygen from the atmosphere to surface water and reduce the …

Membrane technologies have great potential to treat polluted water due to their
characteristic features such as high porosity, flexibility and large mechanical strength. The …

Intensive energy production and consumption are associated with many oil spill accidents
which can result in environmental pollution and other socio-economic impacts. Oil/water …
