EFFICIENCY OF ULTRAFILTRATION CERAMIC MEMBRANES FOR TOXIC ELEMENTS REMOVAL FROM WASTEWATERS
The preparation and characterization of porous ceramics multilayer ultrafiltration membrane is described. The first step consisted to prepare high-quality macroporous support in Moroccan clay. The choice of this material is based on its natural abundance and thermal stability.The microporous interlayer was then prepared by slip casting from zirconia commercial powders and finally the active UF toplayers was obtained by sol-gel route using ZnAl2O4 and TiO2 mixed sols. The performance of ultrafiltration membrane (TiO2 (50�20– ZnAl2O4 (50� was evaluated by pores diameter, water flux, thickness and molecular weight cut off (MWCO). The water permeability measured for this composite membrane is 9.42 L/(m2•h•bar), the thickness is less than 700 nm, the pore diameter is centered near 5 nm and the MWCO was about 4500 Da

New Tubular Ceramic Membranes from Natural Moroccan Clay for Microfiltration Application
This paper is devoted the preparation of low cost microfiltration membranes using Moroccan clay powder. The preparation of membrane was composed with two steps: First a macroporous tubular support with a pore diameter 10 μm and porosity 43%. Secondly a microfiltration layer was performed by the slip casting method. A deflocculated slip was obtained by mixing mineral powder of ZrO2, PVA (polyvinyl alcohol) and water, after drying at room temperature for 24 h, the microfiltration layer was heated to 800°C for consolidation. Scanning electron microscopy observation showed homogeneous layers without cracks with an average pore diameter of 0.19 μm for the active layer. Water permeability obtained is about 841 L/h.m2.bar. The membranes have been tested to cleaning of colored wastewater

SYNTHESIS OF OXIMES WITH THE DOPED POTASSIUM FLUORIDE ANIMAL BONE MEAL AS A CATALYST
The potassium fluoride doped Animal Bone Meal (KF/ABM) was prepared and characterized using several techniques to identify the structural properties. After, it has been used as a new and eco-friendly catalyst for the preparation of from aldehydes and ketones oximes under solvent-free conditions. It is clearly shown that this reaction (using this catalyst) can lead to the corresponding oximes in good yields (80 %) to excellent yields (96 %). In the case of dissymmetric aldehydes and ketones, this catalyst can lead to a mixture of Z- and E- isomers (Z/E = 86/14–90/10). The remarkable advantages of this catalyst are high conversion, short reaction times, cleaner reaction profiles, reusability up to 8 times without significant loss of activity, and reduction in catalyst toxicity
