This project aims to develop smart polymer surfaces that respond to biofouling in water treatment membranes. By utilizing enzymatic stimuli, these surfaces will enhance self-cleaning mechanisms, potentially lowering operational costs for nanofiltration and reverse osmosis processes.
Nanofiltration (NF) and reverse osmosis (RO) membranes are widely and increasingly used for water treatment process.The efficiency of NF and RO processes is however adversely affected by biofouling.
Environmental stimuli can trigger selfcleaningmechanisms of natural surfaces.
Consequently there is an increasing interest in developing smart or stimuliresponsive polymers as coatings to prevent biofouling.
However, external chemical/physical stimuli must be selectivelyapplied to the smart polymers…
