Abstract

Synthetic solutions of varying concentrations of carboxylic acids, namely acetic and butyric acids (50 mM, 100 mM) and treated digested agricultural wastewater with a carboxylic acids concentration of 21.08 mM of acetic acid and 15.81 mM of butyric acid were processed with a range of nanofiltration...
