Abstract

The focus of this research is to discover the best possible operating parameters for adding GO element into PES/GO membranes for NF uses. Organic compounds have the potential to contaminate GO-NP/PES membranes. Regarding to address the technical issues that membranes encounter, the new model strives to decrease energy loss while keeping a strong system discharge all across the treatment process. An optimization strategy was employed to establish ideal values for various essential process parameters to achieve a certain quantity of flux above the expected levels. Mathematical and statistical examinations such as response surface technique and statistical analysis of the characteristics (ANOVA) were used to improve the process's performance on a broader level. This research is looked at the effects of process variables, including dye feeding pH (3–11), GO ratio (0–2%), RB dye concentration (10–100 ppm), and the interactions between these factors and PES/GO membrane permeability. With a result of 123.417 ℓ/(m2 h bar), the PES membrane performed the best. The pH had no consequence on the RB dye's reactivity, and the results are verified by a Pareto chart of the normalized effects on dye permeation flow using a significant effect at the 5% significance level.
