This methodology has been validated with the use of MOFs ZIF-8, ZIF-93 and UiO-66 as fillers for thin-film nanocomposite (TFN) membranes. These membranes were successfully applied in the organic solvent nanofiltration of sunset yellow (SY) in methanol obtaining the highest permeance when UiO-66 and ZIF-93 were used with a value of 11 L m -2 h -1 bar -1 . The permeance improvements are related to the MOF porosity, polyamide-MOF layer thickness and the hydrophilic/hydrophobic character of the membrane. © 2019 The Korean Society of Industrial and Engineering Chemistry2019http://zaguan.unizar.es/record/14798410.1016/j.jiec.2019.04.057http://zaguan.unizar.es/record/147984oai:zaguan.unizar.es:147984info:eu-repo/grantAgreement/ES/DGA/T43-17Rinfo:eu-repo/grantAgreement/ES/MINECO/BES-2014-068287info:eu-repo/grantAgreement/ES/MINECO-FEDER/MAT2016-77290-RJournal of Industrial and Engineering Chemistry 77 (2019), 344-354by-nc-ndhttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/3.0/es/info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess
