Enhanced ions selectivity and anti-scaling: Ridge-structured nanofiltration membranes for advanced drinking water treatment

Key Points

• Enhanced ions selectivity increases the efficiency of water treatment systems, resulting in cleaner drinking water.
• The ridge-structured design of the membranes demonstrates a notable reduction in scaling, improving maintenance and longevity.
• Nanofiltration membranes were assessed under various conditions, revealing superior performance compared to traditional filtration methods.
• These findings highlight the potential of advanced membranes for sustainable solutions in drinking water scarcity.
