Abstract

Modified membranes have gained significant attention due to their ability to enhance performance. Although membranes modified with TiO₂ nanoparticles have been studied, no research has specifically addressed their effectiveness in removing paracetamol contaminants, despite the widespread use of paracetamol and its potential contribution to increased waste production. Therefore, in this study, polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) membranes were modified with TiO₂ nanoparticles, providing new insights into the use of PVDF-TiO₂ specifically for paracetamol wastewater treatment. The results showed that TiO₂ nanoparticle-modified membranes exhibited better performance than unmodified membranes. The unmodified membrane had a lower performance rate (69.18%) compared to membranes modified with titanium isopropoxide (TTIP) at concentrations of 1 M (93.35%) and 0.5 M (90.05%). These results were supported by Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) analysis, which revealed that the unmodified membrane had an average pore size of 0.998 μm, whereas the membranes modified with TTIP at 1 M and 0.5 M had average pore sizes of 0.615 μm and 0.791 μm, respectively. The larger pores in the unmodified membrane allowed larger particles to pass through, reducing its filtration efficiency. These findings underscore the potential of TiO₂ nanoparticle-modified membranes for significantly enhancing water purification processes, particularly in the removal of pharmaceutical contaminants like paracetamol. Ultimately, this research could contribute to the development of more effective strategies for managing pharmaceutical waste in water sources, leading to improved environmental protection and public health.

Abstract

There were several environmental challenges in urban areas, especially related to solid waste management. Learning and community engagement in schools were crucial to promoting sustainability and environmental awareness. A mini-review was conducted to explore the potential of student-led efforts to divert organic waste, specifically fallen dry leaves. Using the Theory of Planned Behavior (TPB), we examined how environmental awareness impacted pro-environmental behavior. Students contributed to sustainable waste management by becoming aware of environmental issues and taking action. Educating students about environmental issues played a crucial role in cultivating environmental awareness. By integrating environmental concepts into the curriculum and organizing extracurricular activities, schools prepared students to address environmental challenges. Even after specific programs such as Adiwiyata were concluded, challenges remained in sustaining environmental initiatives. Schools needed to prioritize environmental education, engage students in active participation, and create an environment that fostered a sustainable culture to ensure long-term impact. Schools made a real difference to the environment by managing organic waste and promoting environmental awareness.
