Construction of waste-derived CoFe-LDHs/PVDF composite membrane and its activation of PMS for removal of ciprofloxacin from water

Puntos clave

• Ciprofloxacin levels reduced significantly using the CoFe-LDHs/PVDF composite membrane, achieving removal efficiency above 90%.
• The composite membrane effectively activates peracetic acid, showcasing its potential in degrading pharmaceutical contaminants.
• Experimental evaluations involved systematic tests on membrane performance against varying concentrations of ciprofloxacin in water.
• These findings may enable advanced water treatment strategies, calling for further exploration of membrane applications in environmental remediation.
