Abstrakt: In this research, the interactions of two azo dyes, Methyl Orange (MO) and Eriochrome Black T (EBT), with dissolved organic matter (DOM) in surface water were studied, emphasizing their removal using nano-filtration membranes (NF-270 and NF-90). High-Performance Size Exclusion Chromatography (HPSEC) findings indicated that the dyes' molecular weight in deionized (DI) water ranged from 500 to 15k Dalton (Da), adjusting peak intensities with Jingmi River (JM) water Beijing. Notably, when dyes were diluted in JM water, ultraviolet (UV 533 & 466 , and UV 254 ), together with total organic carbon (TOC) parameters, revealed color removal rates of 99.49% (EBT), 94.2% (MO), 87.6% DOM removal, and 86% TOC removal for NF-90. The NF-90 membrane demonstrated a 75% flux decline for 50 mL permeate volume due to its finer pore structure and higher rejection effectiveness. In contrast, the NF-270 membrane showed a 60% decline in flux under the same conditions. Attenuated total reflection-Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (ATR-FTIR) analysis of dye-treated membranes in JM water revealed that the NF-270 showed a CC bond peak at 1660 cm -1 across various samples, while analyzing NF-90, the peaks at 1400 cm -1 , 1040 cm -1 , 750 cm -1 , and 620 cm -1 disappeared for composite sample removal. The hydrophobicity of each membrane is measured by the contact angle (CA), which identified that initial CAs for NF-270 and NF-90 were 46 0 and 70 0 , respectively, that were rapidly declined but stabilized after a few seconds of processing. Overall, this investigation shows that azo dyes interact with DOM in surface waters and enhance the removal efficiency of NF membranes.
