Characterizations of a functionalized disused plastic-derived membrane and investigation of the effects of process variables on its adsorptive uptake of Pb2+ from simulated effluent using response surface methodology

This work focuses on the characterization and performance of the adsorptive membrane produced (via blending) functionalized waste polyethylene water sachets bags (PESWAB) with biopolymers. An adsorptive membrane (5.0 µm pore size) and (2.0 mm thickness) was fabricated from 9.0 g wt composite of PESW...
