Popis: | The present work demonstrates an innovative strategy for robust water purification using an engineered aerogel membrane fabricated from biopolymers and task-specific Fe-Al-based nanocomposites. The as-prepared ethylenediaminetetraacetate dianhydride cross-linked chitosan- and agarose (7:3 weight ratio)-based aerogel membrane decorated with α-FeOOH- and γ-AlOOH-based nanocomposites was characterized using various analytical tools, which suggested formation of a highly stable network interconnected through covalent and electrostatic interactions. The optimized bionanocomposite-based aerogel (BNC-AG-0.1) membrane showed macroporous and partial unidirectional short-range channels with an ultralow density of 0.021 g·m |
