Abstract
Membrane filtration is an effective water recycling and purification technology to remove various pollutants in water. Inorganic membrane filtration (IMF) technology has received widespread attention because of its unique high temperature and corrosion resistance. Commonly used inorganic membranes include ceramic membranes and carbon-based membranes. As novel catalytic inorganic membrane processes, IMF coupled with advanced oxidation processes (AOPs), can realize the separation and in situ degradation of pollutants, thus mitigating membrane contamination. In this paper, the types and performance of IMF are discussed. The influencing factors of inorganic membranes in practical wastewater treatment are summarized. The applications, advantages, and disadvantages of the coupled process of IMF and AOPs are summarized and outlined. Finally, the challenges and prospects of IMF and IMF coupled with AOPs are presented, respectively. This contributes to the design and development of coupled systems of membrane filtration with inorganic materials and IMF coupled with AOPs for practical wastewater treatment.

CHEMOSPHERE 2023; 342:140152. [PMID: 37714470 DOI: 10.1016/j.chemosphere.2023.140152] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/28/2023] [Revised: 08/30/2023] [Accepted: 09/11/2023] [Indexed: 09/17/2023]
Abstract
Heavy metal pollution can significantly harm water systems and human health. Combining photoelectrocatalytic (PEC) and nanofiltration (NF) membrane separation technologies can effectively remove heavy metal ions from wastewater. In this study, a water bath method was used to form SrF2/Ti3C2Tx (ST) nanoparticles on the surface of polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) membranes and an additional polyamide (PA) functional layer was formed at the interface by crosslinking. ST@PA composite NF membranes (STPP) with good photocatalytic performance were obtained. The separation and catalytic properties of the STPP membranes were controlled by the ST content, which modifies the surface structure and properties of the membranes. The membrane with optimal ST crosslinking exhibited a water contact angle of 50.8°, pure water flux of 24.6 L·m-2·h-1·bar-1, and rejection rates of Mn2+, Ni2+, Cu2+, and Zn2+ of 98.8%, 95.3%, 95.7%, and 97.3%, respectively, under PEC-assisted separation with visible light illumination from a Xe lamp (300 W) and an applied voltage (2 V). The STPP membranes showed improved rejection rates of heavy metal ions under PEC-assisted operation. The mechanism for the improved membrane performance under PEC conditions was preliminarily clarified considering the relationship between the photocatalytic and filtration properties of STPP membranes along with the influence of light irradiation and an external voltage on the heavy metal ions. The generation of electrons, holes, superoxide radicals, and hydroxyl radicals during membrane operation enhances the rejection rates of heavy metal ions. Based on these results, STPP membranes are considered a promising technology for industrial applications in heavy metal removal.

Abstract
Because of the small size effect leading to the high bandgap of TiO2 P25, the photocatalytic membrane using this photocatalyst has low antifouling efficiency. This study prepared CuO@TiO2 composite photocatalyst with a lower bandgap than TiO2 P25 and used it as antifouling coatings on the PES membrane with PAA intermediate adhesive layer. PAA was grafted onto the surface of the PES membranes through free radicals generated by the cold plasma treatment of the PES membrane. The composite photocatalysts were characterized by FTIR, SEM-EDS, TEM-EDS, XRD, BET, UV-Vis DRS, XPS, and ESR methods demonstrating high surface area (51.0 m2/g), decreased bandgap, and the formation of active free radicals under UV light irradiation. Under photocatalysis and hydrogen peroxide activation, the degradation of AB260 (acid blue 260) catalyzed by 10%CuO@TiO2 reached about 92% after 60 min. Besides, the photocatalytic and antifouling activities of CuO@TiO2/PAA/PES membranes are high and stable over five continuous cycles. The water flux of the modified membrane was not significantly influenced and only decreased about 10% compared to the pristine membrane. In addition, the flux recovery ratios (FRR) of fouled membranes treated by photocatalysis were almost 100%.

Abstract
Robust ceramic membranes presented attractive features of easy cleaning and excellent stability compared to polymeric membranes. Nevertheless, their inherent relationships between the membrane microstructures and separation properties are not completely clear. In this work, we established a quantitative structure-property model using α-Al2O3 membrane on account of the theory of filtrated cake to predict the effects of membrane structure-controlled factors (i.e., α-Al2O3 particle size and layer thickness) on separation performances (i.e., solute rejection and water permeance). The simulation results show that membrane pore size mainly depends upon α-Al2O3 particle size rather than the layer thickness. When the microstructure of top layer in a double-layer asymmetric ceramic membrane is fixed, there exists optimum particle size and layer thickness that constitute the support layer to achieve maximum water permeance. For a triple-layer ceramic membrane, a similar matching relationship exists between top layer and intermediate layer, indicating that the intermediate layer has a vital role in determining water permeance. While the bottom layer has little effect on overall separation property. Finally, the upper-bound tradeoff relationship between permeance and selectivity is further established for the α-Al2O3 membrane. This study reveals the structure-property relationship of ceramic membrane and provides insights into performance enhancement.

Abstract
AbstractTo control Fe3O4 nanoparticles (Fe3O4 NPs) size, different molar ratio of Fe2+ and Fe3+ as well as ammonium hydroxide (pH) was used to synthesize Fe3O4 NPs through co-precipitation method. The Box–Behnken design was selected to explore the interaction between process parameters (factors) such as Fe2+ molar ion, Fe3+ molar ion and pH on the final size. The interactive effect between the process variables was evaluated by analysis of variance (ANOVA). The quadratic model predicted by the Box–Behnken design was significant with a P value of < 0.0001. The optimum synthesis conditions were predicted by the model indicating optimum size obtained using 1.00 mol Fe2+ ion with 3.00 mol Fe3+ ion with pH at 12.00. From the experiment, the particle size was 10 ± 2 nm at optimum conditions, while the model predicted a particle size of 6.80 nm. The magnetic properties of Fe3O4 NPs were displayed typical ferromagnetic behavior with saturation magnetization value to be 49.729 emu/g. Finally, the optimized Fe3O4 NPs showed about 80% removal of Congo red (CR) dye, which confirms their applicability in adsorption process for future applications.

Abstract
Various nanostructures have been used to improve the performance of nanocomposite membranes. Dendritic fibrous nanosilica (DNFS) is a new nanostructure and its performance as an adsorbent for the removal of pigments has been investigated. In this study, a type of modified dendritic fibrous nanosilica containing CS2 groups (KCC-1-NH-CS2) was synthesized and inserted as an additive into nanocomposite acrylonitrile–butadiene–styrene (ABS) membranes. Due to its high surface area and unique functional groups, this additive can improve the membrane's ability to remove dyes from aqueous media. Synthesized nanostructures and membranes were characterized by different analysis. The results showed that the water contact angle as a measure of surface hydrophilicity in membrane M5 compared to membrane M1 decreased from 79° to 67°. Water absorption (swelling degree) in membrane M5 increased by more than 100% compared to the bare membrane. Also, this membrane, despite having high porosity (42%) and improved flux (35 L m−2 h−1), has a better efficiency in removing dyes (MG: 99%, MB: 98%, MO: 82%) in comparison with other reported works. KCC-1-NH-CS2 has been used to improve the performance of acrylonitrile–butadiene–styrene membrane.![]()

Abstract
Oily wastewater has become one of the leading causes of environmental pollution. A massive quantity of oily wastewater is released from industries, oil spills, and routine activities, endangering the ecosystem's sustainability. Due to the enormous negative impact, researchers put strenuous efforts into developing a sustainable solution to treat oily wastewater. Microfiltration/ultrafiltration membranes are considered an efficient solution to treat oily wastewater due to their low cost, small footprint, facile operation, and high separation efficiencies. However, membranes severely fouled during the separation process due to oil's adsorption and cake layer formation, which shortens the membranes' life. This review has critically discussed the microfiltration/ultrafiltration membrane synthesizing methods and their emulsion's separation performance. In the end, key challenges and their possible solutions are highlighted to provide future direction to synthesize next-generation membranes.

Abstract
In this study, the attachment of microcapsules on the membrane surface and its influence on the flow field for a cross-flow membrane setup are investigated. The microcapsules were placed on the top layer of the membrane. The overall purpose of this modification was the prevention of membrane biofouling. Therefore, in a first step, the influence of such a combination on the fluid flow was investigated using computational fluid dynamics (CFD). Here, different properties, which are discussed as indicators for biofouling in the literature, were considered. In parallel, different fixation strategies for the microcapsules were experimentally tested. Two different methods to add the microcapsules were identified and further investigated. In the first method, the microcapsules are glued to the membrane surface, whereas in the second method, the microcapsules are added during the membrane fabrication. The different membrane modifications were studied and compared using CFD. Therefore, virtual geometries mimicking the real ones were created. An idealized virtual geometry was added to the comparison. Results from the simulation were fed back to the experiments to optimize the combined membrane. For the presented setup, it is shown that the glued configuration provides a lower transmembrane pressure than the configuration where microcapsules are added during fabrication.
