Polymeric Membranes and Their Role in the Removal of Dyes

In recent times, the growth of various industries has led to an increase in the generation of colored wastes and effluents. Dyes, in particular, are significant water pollutants that contribute to the production of colored effluents. Physical, chemical, and biological methods have been employed to treat and purify colored wastewater. With the progress of polymer science, the fabrication of diverse types of membranes for dye removal has increased based on the properties of different dyes. By manufacturing membranes in varying sizes, dyes can be eliminated from wastewater. In addition, the use of clay and metal-organic frameworks has facilitated the development of membranes for efficient dye purification and removal. This article discusses the production and application of different types of polymer membranes for the removal of dyes while introducing dyes</em>
