Abstract: NF membranes are now commonly used because employing reverse osmosis membranes has resulted in excessive expenses. Because they can remove organic materials and soften water, nanofiltration membranes may quickly destroy soluble particles. Nanofiltration membranes are essential for desalinating industrial areas and treating water. The world is facing insoluble water problems and using NF is a realistic means to solve these issues and a practical way to get access to fresh, safe, and clean water. The food industry is one of the main contributors to microbial and chemical pollution of water sources, dairy wastewater plays an important role and it is suspected that a large amount of milk is wasted, producing a lot of wastewater. Although the amount of protein is high, the protein in the water can be reused and improve water quality, and the treatment of wastewater can significantly reduce the cost and pollution of water, as a result, using nanofiltration membranes material for food industry effluent is attracting the growing amount of attention and indeed, there is a large variety of nanofiltration construction that can practically apply for water and wastewater treatment along with different water quality such as acidic and alkaline environment. In fact, many nanofiltration techniques can be applied to water and wastewater treatment based on different attitudes such as acidity and alkalinity. After carefully examining NF technology, the study showed that the use of nano-pioneering technology such as nanofiltration membranes improves water quality and reduces microbial and chemical pollution.
