Rapid growth in the textile, paper, and printing industries has caused the production of large quantities of dye effluents, and they must be treated before passing to the water bodies or lands to minimize pollution and environmental impacts. Polymeric membrane-based filtration has been established as an optimal and greener approach for removing hazardous dyes from polluted water. Superior thermal, chemical, and mechanical properties and convenient modifiability made polysulfone (PSF), polyethersulfone (PES), and polyphenylsulfone (PPSU) ideal for the production of membranes for the treatment of dye effluents from industries. This chapter emphasizes the recent developments in modified PSF, PES, and PPSU membranes and their dye rejection properties. © 2025 Elsevier Inc.
