Lab-made negatively charged ultrafiltration (UF) membranes were used for simultaneous removal of humic acid (HA) and heavy metals from water. Effects of the HA/metal ratio, solution pH and ionic strength on rejection coefficients of HA and metals were investigated. The results showed that the rejection coefficients of both HA and metals increase with the increase of pH and the HA/metal ratio, and the decrease of ionic strength. This study indicated that charged UF could be an effective method for the simultaneous removal of HA and heavy metal harnessing the principle of complexation UF and electrostatic repulsion between the membrane and the HA-M complex of the same charges.
