Abstract

A self-standing, robust bacterial cellulose (BC)-based multifunctional composite membrane embedded with desirable nano-adsorbents has been successfully fabricated via a facile versatile strategy. As expected, the developed BC-based composite membrane enables the simultaneous and efficient removal of multiple co-existing pollutants.
