We highlight the potential of using bamboo, a renewable and biodegradable resource, to create advanced nanofiltration membranes. These membranes were tested for their effectiveness in removing contaminants such as heavy metals, organic compounds and dyes from water. Five types of membranes were developed, namely a pristine membrane (PVDF), PVDF-1 % nanocellulose membrane (NCM), PVDF-2 %NCM, PVDF-3 %NCM, PVDF-4 %NCM, and PVDF-5 %NCM. These had 1 %, 2 %, 3 %, 4 %, and 5 % nanocellulose-incorporated nanocomposite membrane, respectively. Water permeability and dye rejection performance increased with increasing nanocellulose content from 1 % to 4 %. PVDF-4 %NCM demonstrated the best balance of water permeability and dye rejection performance. This optimal composition resulted in well-formed porous structures, enhancing the membrane's efficiency. However, increasing the nanocellulose content to 5 % adversely affected the membrane's efficiency due to distortions in the pore structure. The findings underscore the potential of bamboo-based membranes as a sustainable alternative to traditional petroleum-based materials, offering environmental benefits while maintaining high-performance characteristics. We recommend that future research should focus on optimizing fabrication techniques and exploring scalability for broader commercial applications, especially in regions where bamboo is abundant, such as Borneo.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":100040,"journal":{"name":"Advances in Bamboo Science","volume":"11 ","pages":"Article 100134"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-02-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143509200","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Eight mature culms were subjected to 193 mechanical tests, including parallel and perpendicular compression, shear, tension and bending, following the NTC 5525 standard. The study examined the lower, middle and upper sections of the culms to provide a nuanced understanding of the material's properties. Significant variations occurred in mechanical properties across different culm sections and geographical locations. Notably, the shear strength of <em>Guadua</em> from Villavicencio showed superior performance in the upper section, while the lower and middle sections exhibited moderate behaviour. The study also found correlations between geographical factors (altitude, temperature and precipitation) and mechanical properties, although these relationships require further investigation. This research contributes valuable data to the growing body of knowledge on <em>G. angustifolia</em>, highlighting its potential as a sustainable construction material. The findings underscore the importance of considering culm section and geographical origin when selecting <em>Guadua</em> for structural applications.

The rhizosphere surrounding these rhizomes harbours a diverse community of fungi and bacteria that, play a vital role in nutrient uptake and plant health. Bamboo rhizomes also act as essential carbon sinks, contributing to climate change mitigation. Additionally, they possess phytoremediation potential, capable of absorbing heavy metals from contaminated soils. The economic importance of bamboo rhizomes extends to various applications, including construction materials, food, and medicinal uses. This review provides a comprehensive overview of the current understanding of bamboo rhizomes, highlighting their crucial roles in nutrient storage, water retention, and rapid growth.
