In article number 1900114, Tom Lindström, Benjamin S. Hsiao and co‐workers review recent developments in the use of nanocellulose‐enabled membrane technology based on cellulose fibers of varying diameters to remove a range of pollutants from water in one step. This technology can tackle global drinking water challenges and also provide a low‐cost platform for industrial membrane filtration operations. Image credit: Isabel Romero Calvo 2019, Morphology LLC.
