| Description | Polymeric modification using adsorptive inorganic particles is gaining prime importance for its significance in enhancing the filtration properties of membranes. Membranes can remove various pollutants through the separation mechanisms of impaction, diffusion, electrostatic interaction, hydrophobic property, and adsorption (Walther et al., 1988). Among several mechanisms, adsorption is the process most commonly used in to remove the dye constituents of textile industry effluent. The combination of different methods like adsorption and filtration for enhanced membrane separation is highly presumed to achieve significant reduction on pollutants due to textile industries. For a long time, application of activated carbon (AC) as dye adsorbent in textile and dye wastewater treatment has been studied (Choy et al., 1999; Kannan et al., 2001; Malik, 2003; Namasivayam and Kavitha, 2002) because of its large surface area, polymodal porous structure, high adsorption capacity and variable surface chemical composition (Marsh RodrÃguez-Reinoso, 2006). However, the addition of AC in organic polymer matrix for the synthesis of mixed matrix membranes (MMMs) has been very rarely studied. Ballinas et al. (2004) studied the influence of characters of AC on polysulfone (PSF) composite membranes in a continuous operation system and concluded the high performance of a hybrid AC/PSF composite membrane better than nonhybrid ones. The effect of polyethersulfone concentration and AC loading on the performance of MMMs in terms of permeability and selectivity of O2/N2 gas separation has also been investigated (Kusworo et al., 2010). Yet, the studies on application of AC coupled with membrane separation in wastewater treatment show much less evidence.
