Abstract

Conclusion

Nanofiltration proved to be highly effective for tetracycline removal, achieving up to 94.1% at 10 bar, with a feed flow rate of 237.9 L/h, a concentration of 15 mg/L, and pH 8.5, with pH and feed flow rate being the most influential parameters while pressure and concentration had a limited impact; these results were confirmed by the RSM analysis, which showed excellent accuracy (R² = 0.99) and strong predictive capability of the model.
