γ-Valerolactone as Bio-Based Solvent for Nanofiltration Membrane Preparation
Round 1
Reviewer 1 Report
The paper entitled "γ-Valerolactone as Bio-Based Solvent for Nanofiltration Membrane Preparation" is an interesting work on the preparation and evaluation of different NF membranes based on CA, PI, CTA, PES and PSU polymeric matrices using GVL as a bio-based green solvent.
Clearly, the authors put a lot of effort in the study and the manuscript is well-written. A good set of experiments was performed and is clearly explained.
I suggest the manuscript be accepted in the present format.
Reviewer 2 Report
The manuscript by Rasool et al is a thorough report on membrane fabrication using a green solvent. Improvements to industrial processes in which less toxic solvents with less negative impacts on the environment is important and is worthy of continued research. This study is well done and should be published as is.
