Abstract
Heavy metal ions and organic pollutants discharged into various water bodies have caused serious water pollution, and the efficient removal of these contaminants remains a challenge. Here, we report a novel MXene/poly-melamine-formaldehyde (PMF) composite membrane, in which the PMF particles serve as spacers, and the -NH2 groups of PMF and the hydroxyl groups of MXene nanosheets have a synergistic effect on the adsorption of pollutants, and the crosslinking of glutaraldehyde inhibits the swelling of the composite membrane. The MXene/PMF composite membrane with 83.7% PMF particle loading displays a water permeability of 381.2 L m-2 h-1 bar-1 (405% that of MXene membrane) and excellent adsorption ability. In static adsorption, the removal rates of Zn2+, Pb2+, phenol, and crystal violet reach 96.2%, 91.7%, 99.1%, and 96.4% respectively, 20∼100% higher than those of MXene membranes. In dynamic adsorption, the breakthrough volumes of the membrane for 2 ppm p-nitrophenol solution and methyl blue solution reach 75 mL (about 8500 times membrane volume) and 350 mL (about 39800 times membrane volume), and the saturation volumes are 1500 mL and 5000 mL, respectively. After cyclic adsorption/desorption for four times, the removal rate of the membranes still maintains above 90%. This work provides an efficient composite membrane for removing pollutants from wastewater.

Two-Dimensional Interlayer Space Induced Horizontal Transformation of Metal-Organic Framework Nanosheets for Highly Permeable Nanofiltration Membranes.

Abstract
Laminar membranes comprising graphene oxide (GO) and metal-organic framework (MOF) nanosheets benefit from the regular in-plane pores of MOF nanosheets and thus can support rapid water transport. However, the restacking and agglomeration of MOF nanosheets during typical vacuum filtration disturb the stacking of GO sheets, thus deteriorating the membrane selectivity. Therefore, to fabricate highly permeable MOF nanosheets/reduced GO (rGO) membranes, a two-step method is applied. First, using a facile solvothermal method, ZnO nanoparticles are introduced into the rGO laminate to stabilize and enlarge the interlayer spacing. Subsequently, the ZnO/rGO membrane is immersed in a solution of tetrakis(4-carboxyphenyl)porphyrin (H2 TCPP) to realize in situ transformation of ZnO into Zn-TCPP in the confined interlayer space of rGO. By optimizing the transformation time and mass loading of ZnO, the obtained Zn-TCPP/rGO laminar membrane exhibits preferential orientation of Zn-TCPP, which reduces the pathway tortuosity for small molecules. As a result, the composite membrane achieves a high water permeance of 19.0 L m-2 h-1 bar-1 and high anionic dye rejection (>99% for methyl blue).

MEMBRANES 2023; 13:membranes13050536.

Abstract
Pristine graphene oxide (GO)-based membranes have proven promising for molecular and ion separation owing to efficient molecular transport nanochannels, but their separation ability in an aqueous environment is limited by the natural swelling tendency of GO. To obtain a novel membrane with anti-swelling behavior and remarkable desalination capability, we used the Al2O3 tubular membrane with an average pore size of 20 nm as the substrate and fabricated several GO nanofiltration ceramic membranes with different interlayer structures and surface charges by fine-tuning the pH of the GO-EDA membrane-forming suspension (pH = 7, 9, 11). The resultant membranes could maintain desalination stability, whether immersed in water for 680 h or operated under a high-pressure environment. When the pH of the membrane-forming suspension was 11, the prepared GE-11 membrane showed a rejection of 91.5% (measured at 5 bar) towards 1 mM Na2SO4 after soaking in water for 680 h. An increase in the transmembrane pressure to 20 bar resulted in an increase in the rejection towards the 1 mM Na2SO4 solution to 96.3%, and an increase in the permeance to 3.7 L·m-2·h-1·bar-1. The proposed strategy in varying charge repulsion is beneficial to the future development of GO-derived nanofiltration ceramic membranes.

Abstract
Graphene oxide (GO) has shown great potential as a membrane material due to its unique properties, including high mechanical strength, excellent thermal stability, versatility, tunability, and outperforming molecular sieving capabilities. GO membranes can be used in a wide range of applications, such as water treatment, gas separation, and biological applications. However, the large-scale production of GO membranes currently relies on energy-intensive chemical methods that use hazardous chemicals, leading to safety and environmental concerns. Therefore, more sustainable and greener approaches to GO membrane production are needed. In this review, several strategies proposed so far are analyzed, including a discussion on the use of eco-friendly solvents, green reducing agents, and alternative fabrication techniques, both for the preparation of the GO powders and their assembly in membrane form. The characteristics of these approaches aiming to reduce the environmental impact of GO membrane production while maintaining the performance, functionality, and scalability of the membrane are evaluated. In this context, the purpose of this work is to shed light on green and sustainable routes for GO membranes' production. Indeed, the development of green approaches for GO membrane production is crucial to ensure its sustainability and promote its widespread use in various industrial application fields.

Abstract
Developing advanced electrode materials with appropriate compositions and exquisite configurations is crucial in fabricating lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) with high energy density and fast charging capability plateau. Herein, a Fe3O4@reduced graphene oxide (Fe3O4@rGO) coupled architecture was rationally designed and in-situ synthesized. Monodispersed mesoporous Fe3O4 nanospheres were homogeneously formed and strongly bound on interconnected macroporous rGO frameworks to form well-defined three-dimensional (3D) hierarchical porous morphologies. This tailored Fe3O4@rGO coupled architecture fully exploited the advantages of Fe3O4 and rGO to overcome their inherent challenges, including spontaneous aggregating/excessive restacking tendency, sluggish ions diffusion/electrons transportation, and severe volume expansion/structural collapse. Benefitting from their synergistic effects, the optimized Fe3O4@rGO composite electrode exhibited an improved electrochemical reactivity, electrical conductivity, electrolyte accessibility, and structural stability. The optimized composite electrode displayed a high specific capacity of 1296.8 mA h g-1 at 0.1 A g-1 after 100 cycles, even retaining 555.1 mA h g-1 at 2 A g-1 after 2000 cycles. The electrochemical kinetics analysis revealed the predominantly pseudocapacitive behaviors of the Fe3O4@rGO heterogeneous interfaces, accounting for the excellent electrode performance. This study proposes a viable strategy for use in engineering hybrid composites with coupled architectures to optimize their potential as high-performance electrode materials for use in LIBs.

Abstract
Membrane technology has shown a viable potential in conversion of liquid-waste or high-salt streams to fresh waters and resources. However, the non-adjustability pore size of traditional membranes limits the application of ion capture due to their low selectivity for target ions. Recently, covalent organic frameworks (COFs) have become a promising candidate for construction of advanced ion separation membranes for ion resource recovery due to their low density, large surface area, tunable channel structure, and tailored functionality. This tutorial review aims to analyze and summarize the progress in understanding ion capture mechanisms, preparation processes, and applications of COF-based membranes. First, the design principles for target ion selectivity are illustrated in terms of theoretical simulation of ions transport in COFs, and key properties for ion selectivity of COFs and COF-based membranes. Next, the fabrication methods of diverse COF-based membranes are classified into pure COF membranes, COF continuous membranes, and COF mixed matrix membranes. Finally, current applications of COF-based membranes are highlighted: desalination, extraction, removal of toxic metal ions, radionuclides and lithium, and acid recovery. This review presents promising approaches for design, preparation, and application of COF-based membranes in ion selectivity for recovery of ionic resources.

Abstract
Precise and ultrafast ion sieving is highly desirable for many applications in environment-, energy-, and resource-related fields. The development of a permselective lamellar membrane constructed from parallel stacked two-dimensional (2D) nanosheets opened a new avenue for the development of next-generation separation technology because of the unprecedented diversity of the designable interior nanochannels. In this Review, we first discuss the construction of homo- and heterolaminar nanoarchitectures from the starting materials to the emerging preparation strategies. We then explore the property-performance relationships, with a particular emphasis on the effects of physical structural features, chemical properties, and external environment stimuli on ion transport behavior under nanoconfinement. We also present existing and potential applications of 2D membranes in desalination, ion recovery, and energy conversion. Finally, we discuss the challenges and outline research directions in this promising field.

Abstract
Membrane separation is regarded as efficient technology to alleviate global water crisis. Two-dimensional membranes are promising for contaminant removal from wastewaters, but their uncontrollable transport pathway and instability hinder the further development. In this study, the high-performance and stable two-dimensional framework membranes are self-assembled by graphene oxide (GO) nanosheets and amino-appended metal-organic polyhedrons (MOPs) for water purification and remediation. The MOP molecular cages are uniformly intercalated between GO nanosheets and enriched at defects/edges, and can crosslink membranes, to provide in-plane selective channels, refine vertical passageways, and fix out-of-plane interlayer spaces. The prepared GO/MOP framework membranes have improved stability and nanofiltration performance under cross-flow condition, can keep performance in water after 50 h filtration, and show high rejections over 92% for Na2SO4 and 99% for antibiotic and dye contaminants with molecular weights over 280 g mol-1, and sixfold permeance as that of GO membranes. Our molecular cage-intercalated and crosslinked two-dimensional frameworks offer an alternative route to design robust membranes for efficient removal of contaminants in wastewaters.

Abstract
The laminated graphene oxide (GO) membranes are promising alternatives in the field of nanofiltration due to their unique stacked interlayer structure and controllable molecular transport channels. However, it is still challenging to obtain satisfactory physical stability and separation performance to meet its practical application. In this study, a novel GO/Gr (graphene) nanofiltration membrane with high stability was engineered by post-hot-pressure treatment, following forward pressure filtration. The impact of GO/Gr loading ratio of the composites nanofiltration membranes for the permeability, selectivity, hydrophilicity and physical stability was investigated. The GO/Gr nanofiltration membranes exhibited high stability and separation performance because of the enhanced regularity and smoothness of the overall stacking layers. It was demonstrated that the satisfactory permeability (12.8-20 L·m-2·h-1) of GO/Gr nanofiltration membranes could be achieved. Compared with the pure GO membranes, GO/Gr-0.5 membranes exhibited a higher Na2SO4, NaCl, MgCl2, and MgSO4 rejection rate of approximately 78.3%, 51.2%, 34.5% and 32.6%, respectively. Meanwhile, the rejection rate (99.5%, 99.9%, 97.3% and 98.6%) of composite membranes for Methylene blue, Congo red, Rhodamine B and Methyl orange could be achieved. This facile way reveals the potential of stacked GO/Gr membranes in developing GO-based nanofiltration membranes.

Abstract
A method for creating genuine nanopores in high area density on monolayer two-dimensional (2D) metallic oxides has been developed. By use of the strong reduction capability of hydroiodic acid, active metal ions, such as FeIII and CoIII, in 2D oxide nanosheets can be reduced to a divalent charge state (2+). The selective removal of FeO2 and CoO2 metal oxide units from the framework can be tuned to produce pores in a range of 1-4 nm. By monitoring of the redox reaction kinetics, the pore area density can be also tuned from ∼0.9 × 104 to ∼3.3 × 105 μm-2. The universality of this method to produce much smaller pores and higher area density than the previously reported ones has been proven in different oxide nanosheets. To demonstrate their potential applications, ultrasmall metal organic framework particles were grown inside the pores of perforated titania oxide nanosheets. The optimized hybrid film showed ∼100% rejection of methylene blue (MB) from the water. Its water permeance reached 4260 L m-2 h-1 bar-1, which is 1-3 orders of that for reported 2D membranes with good MB rejections.

Abstract
Laminar graphene oxide (GO) membranes have demonstrated great potential as next-generation water-treatment membranes because of their outstanding performance and physicochemical properties. However, solute rejection and stability deterioration in aqueous solutions, which are caused by enlarged nanochannels due to hydration and swelling, are regarded as serious issues in the use of GO membranes. In this study, we attempt to use the crosslinking of divalent cations to improve resistance against swelling in partially reduced GO membranes. The partially reduced GO membranes intercalated by divalent cations (i.e., Mg2+) exhibited improved dye-rejection efficiencies of up to 98.40%, 98.88%, and 86.41% for methyl orange, methylene blue, and rhodamine B, respectively. In addition, it was confirmed that divalent cation crosslinking and partial reduction could strengthen mechanical stability during testing under harsh aqueous conditions (i.e., strong sonication).

Abstract
Abstract
Graphene-based layered materials have got significant interest in membrane technology for water desalination, gas separation, organic nanofiltration, pervaporation, proton exchange applications, etc. and show remarkable results. Up to date, various methods have been developed for fabrication of high performance membrane. Most of them are only suitable for research purposes, but not appropriate for mass transport barrier and membrane applications that require large-area synthesis. In this comprehensive review, we summarized the current synthesis and fabrication methods of graphene-based membranes. Emphasis will be given on fabrication of both graphene-based nanoporous and lamellar membranes. Finally, we discuss the current engineering hurdles and future research directions yet to be explored for fabrication of such membranes.

Abstract
Two-dimensional (2D) membranes as a new type of water filtration membrane have shown great potential in water separation and purification. However, their long-term stability under cross-flow conditions and their antifouling property are two main concerns for practical separation and purification processes. In this work, a strategy of nanoparticle bridges based on amorphous TiO2 is developed to link adjacent WS2 nanosheets on a WS2 membrane surface, leading to a strong membrane surface with excellent stability during 204 h of continuous cross-flow filtration. Moreover, the amorphous TiO2 bridges also form a TiO2/WS2 heterojunction on the WS2 membrane surface, exhibiting an impressive photocatalysis-driving self-cleaning property by pollutant photodegradation. And the flux recovery ratio (FRR) exceeds 95% after three cycles of separation experiments. The excellent long-term stability and photocatalysis-driving self-cleaning property of the WS2/TiO2 membrane provide a new approach to construct robust 2D membranes.

Abstract
Since the discovery of 2D materials, 2D material nanofiltration (NF) membranes have attracted great attention and are being developed with a tremendously fast pace, due to their energy efficiency and cost effectiveness for water purification. The most attractive aspect for 2D material NF membranes is that, anomalous water and ion permeation phenomena have been constantly observed because of the presence of the severely confined nanocapillaries (<2 nm) in the membrane, leading to its great potential in achieving superior overall performance, e.g., high water flux, high rejection rates of ions, and high resistance to swelling. Hence, fundamental understandings of such water and ion transport behaviors are of great significance for the continuous development of 2D material NF membranes. In this work, the microscopic understandings developed up to date on 2D material NF membranes regarding the abnormal transport phenomena are reviewed, including ultrafast water and ion permeation rates with the magnitude several orders higher than that predicted by conventional diffusion behavior, ion dehydration, ionic Coulomb blockade, ion-ion correlations, etc. The state-of-the-art structural designs for 2D material NF membranes are also reviewed. Discussion and future perspectives are provided highlighting the rational design of 2D material membrane structures in the future.

Abstract
Membrane-based separations have been widely applied in gas, water and organic solvent purifications to reduce energy consumption and minimize environmental pollution. In recent years, graphene oxide (GO) membranes have attracted increasing attention due to their self-assembly ability and excellent stability. In this review, publications within the last 3 years on microscopically tuning the GO framework are summarized and reviewed. Various materials, including organic molecules, polymers, inorganic particles, ions and 2D materials, have been deployed to intercalate with GO nanosheets. Due to the varied interlayer spacing and packing structure, the developed GO composites exhibit enhanced stabilities and separation performances. In addition, designing horizontal GO membranes and functionalizing GO nanosheets have also been reported to improve the performance. This review sheds light on the techniques to microscopically tune the GO framework and the resulting macroscopic changes in membrane properties and performances.

Abstract
Metal pollutant adsorbents are an essential material platform for sustainable environmental remediation, but the adsorbents are typically disposable after sorption, which secondarily contaminates the environment. We report on recyclable Cu(II) adsorbent of deprotonated poly-N-phenylglycine nanofibers (d-PPG NFs)-grafted reduced graphene oxide (rGO) sheets intercalated with Fe3O4 nanoparticles (NPs), which are synthesized via wet chemical process. The adsorption performances of ternary Fe3O4 NPs@rGO-d-PPG NFs and binary Fe3O4 NPs@rGO composites are compared, and the ternary ones exhibit much higher Cu2+-adsorption capacity than binary ones under diverse pH conditions due to both high specific surface area and high cationic affinity of d-PPG NFs that follow the Freundlich adsorption model. Density-functional theory calculation results explain why/how the ternary composites show greater Cu2+ adsorption capability in higher pH environment. The ternary composites present stable, high Cu2+ adsorption capability, irrespective of Co2+ concentration in bimetallic Cu and Co aqueous solution. The Fe3O4 NPs in the ternary composites allow magnet-assisted collection after adsorption batches, whose collection yield is ∼95 % without adsorption capacity degradation in repeated adsorbent reuses over 10 times. This study provides a general, promising pathway to synthesize reusable sorptive materials for water purification/remediation.

Abstract
With the increasing demand of high water-quality, membrane filtration technologies are playing further important roles in water treatment owing to their small footprints, reduced use of chemicals and stable performances. However, the inherent permeability-selectivity trade-off is still a significant obstacle restricting the broad applications of membrane separation. Hydrophilic modification via doping nanoparticles into membranes is considered an effective solution to improve the permeability while maintaining selectivity. However, agglomeration of nanoparticles often results in inhomogeneity of the modified membranes. In this study, hybrid membranes with separated covalent organic framework (COF) particles that were uniformly embedded in the membrane surface pores were firstly fabricated via acetic-acid-catalyzed in situ synthesis. Owing to the ample hydrophilic chemical groups and tunable molecular transport channels in COFs, the modified membranes yielded almost twice higher water flux (about 200 L m-2·h-1·bar) than the pristine membranes with simultaneously enhanced rejection of water pollutants (i.e., dyes). In addition, the pure organic structure of COF improves the polymer-filler interaction of the mixed film, thereby reducing the risk of leakage. Therefore, the hybrid membranes also exhibited relatively high stability in long-term operations and different pH conditions, which makes them promising candidates in future membrane applications.

Abstract
Membrane technologies have broad applications in the removal of contaminants from drinking water and wastewater. In recent decades, ceramic membrane has made rapid progress in industrial/municipal wastewater treatment and drinking water treatment owing to their advantageous properties over conventional polymeric membrane. The beneficial characteristics of ceramic membranes include fouling resistance, high permeability, good recoverability, chemical stability, and long life time, which have found applications with the recent innovations in both fabrication methods and nanotechnology. Therefore, ceramic membranes hold great promise for potential applications in water treatment. This paper mainly reviews the progress in the research and development of ceramic membranes, with key focus on porous ceramic membranes and nanomaterial-functionalized ceramic membranes for nanofiltration or catalysis. The current state of the available ceramic membranes in industry and academia, and their potential advantages, limitations and applications are reviewed. The last section of the review focuses on ceramic membrane fouling and the efforts towards ceramic membrane fouling mitigation. The advances in ceramic membrane technologies have rarely been widely reviewed before, therefore, this review could be served as a guide for the new entrants to the field, as well to the established researchers.

Abstract
Recent innovations highlight the great potential of two-dimensional graphene oxide (GO) films in water-related applications. However, undesirable water-induced effects, such as the redispersion and peeling of stacked GO laminates, greatly limit their performance and impact their practical application. It remains a great challenge to stabilize GO membranes in water. A molecular bridge strategy is reported in which an interlaminar short-chain molecular bridge generates a robust GO laminate that resists the tendency to swell. Furthermore, an interfacial long-chain molecular bridge adheres the GO laminate to a porous substrate to increase the mechanical strength of the membrane. By rationally creating and tuning the molecular bridges, the stabilized GO membranes can exhibit outstanding durability in harsh operating conditions, such as cross-flow, high-pressure, and long-term filtration. This general and scalable stabilizing approach for GO membranes provides new opportunities for reliable two-dimensional laminar films used in aqueous environments.

Abstract
Resolution of resources and environmental crises requires an efficient separation technologies, consequently, scientists and engineers are working vigorously for ideal separation materials. Laminar graphene oxide (GO) is a two-dimensional (2D) material offers considerable interest in this field due to its single atomic layer thickness, good stability, chemical inertness, and variety of functional groups. Recently, GO have emerged as a novel membrane material for molecular and ionic separation of gases, solvent, water, and desalination applications. This tutorial review aims to discuss the various approaches used to control the stacking of GO-based membrane with emphasis of advantages and drawbacks associated with each approach. Further, attention will also be given to describe the recent progress in GO based membranes for ionic and molecular separations. Meanwhile, challenges and opportunities will also be discussed in detail. We hope this review expected to provide a compact source of information that will be of great interest to chemists, material scientists, physicists, and engineers working or planning to work in GO based membranes for separation applications.

Abstract
Nanotechnology has unprecedentedly revolutionized human societies over the past decades and will continue to advance our broad societal goals in the coming decades. The research, development, and particularly the application of engineered nanomaterials have shifted the focus from "less efficient" single-component nanomaterials toward "superior-performance", next-generation multifunctional nanohybrids. Carbon nanomaterials (e.g., carbon nanotubes, graphene family nanomaterials, carbon dots, and graphitic carbon nitride) and metal/metal oxide nanoparticles (e.g., Ag, Au, CdS, Cu2O, MoS2, TiO2, and ZnO) combinations are the most commonly pursued nanohybrids (carbon-metal nanohybrids; CMNHs), which exhibit appealing properties and promising multifunctionalities for addressing multiple complex challenges faced by humanity at the critical energy-water-environment (EWE) nexus. In this frontier review, we first highlight the altered and newly emerging properties (e.g., electronic and optical attributes, particle size, shape, morphology, crystallinity, dimensionality, carbon/metal ratio, and hybridization mode) of CMNHs that are distinct from those of their parent component materials. We then illustrate how these important newly emerging properties and functions of CMNHs direct their performances at the EWE nexus including energy harvesting (e.g., H2O splitting and CO2 conversion), water treatment (e.g., contaminant removal and membrane technology), and environmental sensing and in situ nanoremediation. This review concludes with identifications of critical knowledge gaps and future research directions for maximizing the benefits of next-generation multifunctional CMNHs at the EWE nexus and beyond.
