Experiments were performed to determine the effects of transmembrane pressure, pH, concentration of metal ions on the retention and permeate flux. The performance of the proposed new binding polymer was compared to that of polyethyleneimine a conventional polymer frequently used in polymer-enhanced ultrafiltration. The retention of zinc and lead ions reached 96 and 66 %, respectively, using 0.05 % unmodified starch at pH 7. Overall unmodified starch showed better retention for zinc ions then polyethyleneimine, whereas polyethyleneimine retention for lead ions was higher. Solution pH was found to have little effect on flux. 2016-03-31T08:05:41Z 2016-03-31T08:05:41Z 2015-06-01 Article International Journal of Environmental Science and Technology, vol.12 (6), 2015, pages 1825-1834 1735-2630 (Online) 1735-1472 (Print) http://dspace.unimap.edu.my:80/xmlui/handle/123456789/41239 10.1007/s13762-014-0549-4 en Springer Berlin Heidelberg
