Opportunities, challenges and trade-offs with decreasing avoidable food waste in the UK by Patel, Shivalee

“…Stakeholder interrelations, regulatory and socio-economic aspects are discussed in relation to their influence on decreasing avoidable food waste. The main output from this work is a diagrammatic depiction of where challenges and trade-offs occur along the food supply chain, and how policy and socio-economic reforms are needed to maximise avoidable food waste prevention, and the surplus avoidable food redistribution in the food supply chain for social benefit.…”

Bio-Inspired Fabrication of Ultrafiltration Membranes Incorporating Polydopamine Functionalized Graphene Oxide Nanoparticles by Alkhouzaam, Abedalkader I.

“…Thus, the flux increased with the embedding of rGO-PDA without affecting the rejection properties, while it decreased with the embedding of pristine GO. The highest pure water permeability (PWP) was obtained with PSF/rGO PDA-0.1 to be approximately twice that of the pristine PSF and PSF/GO-0.1. …”
