Implication

This research demonstrates enhanced permeability and turbidity reduction using geopolymer-zeolite membranes, indicating their potential in textile wastewater management.

Key Points

The optimum geopolymer-zeolite composite membrane achieved a turbidity reduction of 97.98%, showcasing its effective filtration capability.
Fouling analysis revealed that membrane and cake layer resistances accounted for 57.04% and 26.5% of total filtration resistance, respectively.
The incorporated cake filtration model successfully calculated permeate flux for real wastewater, affirming its applicability in wastewater management.
The membrane's performance remained consistent across filtration-regeneration cycles, restoring over 97.4% of initial flux and 99.5% turbidity reduction.
