Abstract
= 0.97). Overall, this study introduces a practical nanocomposite membrane that effectively mitigates the conventional trade-off between permeability and selectivity by delivering high dye removal, strong antifouling performance, and promising applicability for industrial wastewater treatment. Comparative analysis with previously reported PVDF-based membranes further highlighted the superior performance of the developed formulation.
