-PEO to the cellulose matrix helps to increase the adsorption efficiency of the membranes by at least 2-fold in most cases. For the compounds studied, the prepared membrane has a higher efficiency toward omeprazole followed by sulfamethoxazole and sulfadiazine. This work may serve to inspire the design and fabrication of selective soft materials for the adsorption and remediation of contaminants of emerging concern.
