Author Correction: Development and life cycle assessment (LCA) of super-oleophobic (under water) and super-hydrophilic (in-air) mesh membrane for oily water treatment (Scientific Reports, (2024), 14, 1, (15268), 10.1038/s41598-024-64803-0)

Correction to: Scientific Reportshttps://doi.org/10.1038/s41598-024-64803-0, published online 03 July 2024 The original version of the Article contained an error by omission, where a contextually relevant article was not cited. The below Reference has been added and is listed as Reference 19. 19. Baig, U. & Dastageer, M. A. Fabrication of photo-responsive mesh membrane with surface-engineered wettability for oil–water separation and photocatalytic degradation of organic pollutants. Membranes 13(3):302 (2023) As a result of the changes, the References have been renumbered. Additionally, in the Introduction section, “In this study, Titania (TiO₂) nanoparticles (NPs) were chosen as a coating material for the fabrication of super-oleophobic (under water) and super-hydrophilic (in-air) mesh membrane due to its exceptional super-hydrophilicity, high stability, cheap cost, and commercial availability.” now reads: “In this study, based on our previous findings¹⁹, Titania (TiO₂) nanoparticles (NPs) were chosen as a coating material for the fabrication of super-oleophobic (under water) and super-hydrophilic (in-air) mesh membrane due to its exceptional super-hydrophilicity, high stability, cheap cost, and commercial availability, in order to determine the environmental impacts of Titania NPs-coated mesh membrane fabrication process using life cycle assessment (LCA).” In the Experimental methods section, under the subheading “Mesh membrane fabrication and characterization”, “The mesh (stainless-steel; SS) used for this study was acquired from TWP Inc USA and Titania NPs (particle size 10–20 nm) were acquired from Sigma Aldrich (USA).” now reads: “The Titania NPs-coated mesh membrane was fabricated by the same method as described in our previous study¹⁹. The mesh (stainless-steel; SS) used for this study was acquired from TWP Inc USA and Titania NPs (particle size 10-20 nm) were acquired from Sigma Aldrich (USA).” Finally, in the Conclusion section, “Under-water super oleophobic and in-air super hydrophilic Titania NPs-coated mesh membrane was manufactured by spray coating of Titania NPs on SS mesh and then calcining the membrane at 500 °C.” now reads: “Under-water super oleophobic and in-air super hydrophilic Titania NPs-coated mesh membrane was manufactured by spray coating of Titania NPs on SS mesh and then calcining the membrane at 500 °C, and the life cycle assessment (LCA) was used in order to evaluate the environmental impacts of the Titania NPs-coated mesh membrane fabrication process for the oil remediation application.” The original Article has been corrected.
