  1. 16. Water purification of ibuprofen using whey protein aerogels with and without PNF-structure

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för industriell teknik och management (ITM)

    Author : Jessica Lyrner Morén; David Jonsson; [2023]
    Keywords : Aerogels; water purification; ibuprofen; protein nanofibrils PNF ; whey protein; attitudes; scientific research; Aerogeler; vattenrening; ibuprofen; protein nanofibriller PNF ; vassleprotein; attityder; naturvetenskaplig forskning;

    Abstract : Clean water, free from pharmaceuticals, is important both for land and water living animals. Protein nanofibrils (PNFs) have already been shown to be a promising candidate for water purification of pharmaceuticals but there is a lack of research that compares PNF materials to non-PNF protein materials for water purification.
