Abstract: Disclosed is a method for fabricating a polyethersulfone nanofiber membrane with improved mechanical strength for water treatment by electrospinning. According to exemplary embodiments, the polyethersulfone nanofiber membrane possesses higher mechanical strength than conventional polyethersulfone nanofiber membranes that are susceptible to damage and limited in life when applied to water treatment processes. In addition, the polyethersulfone nanofiber membrane has high water permeability and can remove contaminants with high efficiency compared to conventional membranes for water treatment. Therefore, the polyethersulfone nanofiber membrane is suitable for use in water treatment.

Abstract: Disclosed are granular mesoporous silica and a preparation method thereof. The preparation method includes preparing powdered silica containing a structure derivative to form mesopores; preparing a molded precursor including the powdered silica and an inorganic binder or an organic binder; preparing a granular molded article having a predetermined shape by extruding or injection-molding the molded precursor; and removing the structure derivative by calcinating the granular molded article. The granular mesoporous silica represents superior pore characteristics and is used as an adsorbent capable of effectively removing pollutants in water treatment and air pollution treatment.
