ABSTRACT Membrane technology is increasingly becoming a solution in wastewater treatment from textiles and dyeing, however, it has continuing challenge on membrane fouling. In this study, we developed series of hybrid activated clay (AC)/hydroxyapatite (HA)‐polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) composite membranes for fouling control during the removal methylene blue (MB) dye simulated wastewater. AC HA, known their dye‐sorption capabilities, were prepared various ratios incorporated as fillers PVA to form (PVA/AC/HA). Various characterization techniques including Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) with energy dispersive x‐ray (EDX), zeta potential (ZP), diffraction (XRD) used analyze structure, morphology crystallinity membranes. The integration HA significantly influenced filtration performance, antifouling properties hydrophilic nature Results indicated that 2:1 (AC: HA) ratio was most effective MB removal. This demonstrated optimal porosity pure water flux (PWF) 34.4% 70.3 L/m 2 /h, respectively. Furthermore, achieved peak rejection rate 95.5% exhibited highest recovery 83.9%, highlighting its superior performance.

The increasing environmental concerns regarding plastic waste, especially in agriculture, have driven the search for sustainable alternatives. Agricultural plastics, such as mulching films and greenhouse covers, are heavily reliant on petrochemical-derived materials, which persist environment contribute to long-term pollution. This study explores use of biodegradable biocomposites made from steam explosion-treated chicken feathers various polymer matrices address these issues. Chicken feathers, a waste by-product poultry industry, present an excellent biodegradability result explosion treatment contain nitrogen, potentially enhancing soil fertility. were characterized by thermal stability, mechanical properties, biodegradability, ecotoxicity assessments carried out studying incorporation into soil. Results showed that treated increased water absorption capacity composites, promoting faster disintegration biodegradation. In particular, with polyhydroxyalkanoates Poly(3-hydroxybutyrate-co-3-hydroxyvalerate) exhibited significant increase degradation rates, 3-10% first month pure 40-50% when reinforced feathers. Meanwhile, those polylactic acid slower degradation. Furthermore, addition positively influenced crop growth at low concentrations, acting slow-release fertilizer. However, high concentrations negatively affect plant due excess nitrogen. These findings highlight potential valuable, filler agricultural bioplastics, contributing valorization environmentally friendly farming practices.
