Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

Membranes is pleased to announce the upcoming Special Issue, entitled, "Advanced Membranes for Desalination and Water Treatment", which aims to disseminate the recent advances in and applications of advanced membranes for desalination and water treatment to a wide scientific readership in general and to membrane researchers in particular. We are seeking scientific contributions in the form of original research articles and review articles in the areas: the nanofiltration membranes, reverse osmosis membranes, super-hydrophobic membranes for water desalination, and various types of advanced wetting/non-wetting membranes for use in oily water and wastewater treatment applications. In addition, research articles from wider fields pertaining to membrane technology will also be considered inclusion in this publication. I am looking forward to receiving your valuable contributions.

Dr. Umair Baig

Manuscript Submission Information

Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.

Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Membranes is an international peer-reviewed open access monthly journal published by MDPI.

Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 2700 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.

Given the significance of dissolved H2S, various techniques have been explored in the literature. The current review describes in detail the various membrane-based techniques, such as membrane contactors, for removing dissolved H2S from various wastewater streams. Various types of hydrophobic membranes have been used, with more emphasis placed on PVDF hollow fiber membranes. The hydrophobic membranes do not allow water to pass through, whereas H2S is readily allowed to pass through the membrane at ambient conditions. In addition, the use of monoethanol amine triazine (MEA-Triazine)- based H2S scavengers has also been described in detail, including the possible scavenging mechanism. The possibility of different types of byproducts has also been explained along with the possible routes to get rid of scavenger byproducts, such as apDTZ. The use of peroxy acetic acid has also been explained to oxidize and solubilize apDTZ. Furthermore, the use of vacuum-based dissolved H2S gas has also been described in detail. The application of the Knudsen and bulk diffusion models to the separation of dissolved H2S through the pores of the hollow fibers has also been explained. Finally, the future challenges and possible solutions along with concluding remarks have also been mentioned in the current review. Full article
