Treatment of Aniline Wastewater by Membrane Distillation …
Aniline is a highly toxic organic pollutant with "carcinogenic, teratogenic and mutagenesis" characteristics. In the present paper, a membrane distillation and crystallization (MDCr) process was proposed to achieve zero liquid discharge (ZLD) of aniline wastewater. Hydrophobic polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) membranes were used in the membrane …
