  • Chapter
  • First Online:
Modern Age Environmental Problems and their Remediation

Abstract

The present chapter deals with the recent advances in the fabrication of polymer supported nanocomposite membranes for water purification. Fabrication of compositing membrane using conducting polymers in the form of polymer-matrix or surface based thin-film open an innovative way to used nanocomposite materials in diverse field. The improvement of PANI based nanocomposite membranes should be designed by tailored their morphological and physico-chemical properties, thus introducing unique functionalities in order to meet the specific wastewater treatment applications. This review provides a brief description of the current status of PANI nanocomposite membrane which projected higher demand to be applied in water purification systems owing to the significant enhancement on permeability, antifouling and mechanical properties.
