Wang LT, Chen YH, Chang WT, Kumar SR, Chen CC, Lue SJ. Separation Mechanisms and Anti-Fouling Properties of a Microporous Polyvinylidene Fluoride-Polyacrylic Acid-Graphene Oxide (PVDF-PAA-GO) Composite Membrane with Salt and Protein Solutions. MEMBRANES 2022; 13:40. [PMID: 36676847 PMCID: PMC9860620 DOI: 10.3390/membranes13010040] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/13/2022] [Revised: 12/10/2022] [Accepted: 12/23/2022] [Indexed: 06/17/2023]
Abstract
This research demonstrates the preparation of composite membranes containing graphene oxide (GO) and investigates the separation mechanisms of various salts and bovine serum albumin (BSA) solutions. A microporous polyvinylidene fluoride-polyacrylic acid-GO (PVDF-PAA-GO) separation layer was fabricated on non-woven support. The GO-incorporating composite resulted in enlarged pore size (0.16 μm) compared with the control membrane (0.12 μm). The zeta potential of the GO composite was reduced to -31 from -19 mV. The resulting membranes with and without GO were examined for water permeability and rejection efficiency with single salt and BSA solutions. Using the non-woven/PVDF-PAA composite, the permeance values were 88-190 kg/m2hMPa, and the salt rejection coefficients were 9-28% for Na2SO4, MgCl2, MgSO4, and NaCl solutions. These salt removals were based on the Donnan exclusion mechanism considering the ion radii and membrane pore size. Incorporating GO into the separation layer exhibited limited impacts on the filtration of salt solutions, but significantly reduced BSA membrane adhesion and increased permeance. The negatively charged protein reached almost complete removal (98.4%) from the highly negatively charged GO-containing membrane. The GO additive improved the anti-fouling property of the composite membrane and enhanced BSA separation from the salt solution.

Abstract
Microbially induced carbonate precipitation (MICP) is a process that hydrolysis urea by microbial urease to fill the pore spaces of soil with induced calcium carbonate (CaCO3 ) precipitates, which eventually results in improved or solidified soil. This research explored the possibility of using dairy manure pellets (DMP) and palm oil mill effluent (POME) as alternative nutrient sources for Sporosarcina pasteurii cultivation and CaCO3 bioprecipitation. Different concentrations (20 to 80 g l-1 ) of DMP and POME were used to propagate the cells of Sporosarcina pasteurii under laboratory conditions. The measured CaCO3 contents for MICP soil specimens that were treated with bacterial cultures grown in DMP medium (60%, w/v) was 15.30 ±0.04g ml-1 and POME medium (40%, v/v) was 15.49 ±0.05g ml-1 after 21 days curing. The scanning electron microscopy showed that soil treated with DMP had rhombohedral structure-like crystals with smooth surfaces, while that of POME entailed ring-like cubical formation with rough surfaces Electron dispersive X-ray analysis was able to identify a high mass percentage of chemical element compositions (Ca, C, and O), while spectrum from Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy confirmed the vibration peak intensities for CaCO3 . Atomic force microscopy further showed clear topographical differences on the crystal surface structures that were formed around the MICP treated soil samples. These nutrient sources (DMP and POME) showed encouraging potential cultivation mediums to address high costs related to bacterial cultivation and biocementation treatment.

Abstract
Clean water supply is an essential element for the entire sustainable human society, and the economic and technology development. Membrane filtration for water and wastewater treatments is the premier choice due to its high energy efficiency and effectiveness, where the separation is performed by passing water molecules through purposely tuned pores of membranes selectively without phase change and additional chemicals. Ceramics and polymers are two main candidate materials for membranes, where the majority has been made of polymeric materials, due to the low cost, easy processing, and tunability in pore configurations. In contrast, ceramic membranes have much better performance, extra-long service life, mechanical robustness, and high thermal and chemical stabilities, and they have also been applied in gas, petrochemical, food-beverage, and pharmaceutical industries, where most of polymeric membranes cannot perform properly. However, one of the main drawbacks of ceramic membranes is the high manufacturing cost, which is about three to five times higher than that of common polymeric types. To fill the large gap between the competing ceramic and polymeric membranes, one apparent solution is to develop a ceramic-polymer composite type. Indeed, the properly engineered ceramic-polymer composite membranes are able to integrate the advantages of both ceramic and polymeric materials together, providing improvement in membrane performance for efficient separation, raised life span and additional functionalities. In this overview, we first thoroughly examine three types of ceramic-polymer composite membranes, (i) ceramics in polymer membranes (nanocomposite membranes), (ii) thin film nanocomposite (TFN) membranes, and (iii) ceramic-supported polymer membranes. In the past decade, great progress has been made in improving the compatibility between ceramics and polymers, while the synergy between them has been among the main pursuits, especially in the development of the high performing nanocomposite membranes for water and wastewater treatment at lowered manufacturing cost. By looking into strategies to improve the compatibility among ceramic and polymeric components, we will conclude with briefing on the perspectives and challenges for the future development of the composite membranes.

Abstract
In this study, hydroentangled cotton nonwovens were identified as effective hosts for mineralization of calcium carbonate (CaCO3) polymorphs to modify and improve their properties. All cotton varieties studied, including raw white cotton, scoured white cotton, and raw brown cotton, readily crystallized CaCO3via a simple cyclic dipping process. A combination of analyses agreed that the surface chemistry of cotton fibers influenced the formation of different CaCO3 polymorphs. Scoured white cotton that consisted of almost pure cellulose predominantly produced the most stable calcite, whereas raw white and raw brown cottons that contain proteins facilitated the production of partial metastable vaterite. The morphology of calcite was better defined on the scoured cotton. The mineralization altered the hydrophobic surface of raw cottons to be hydrophilic, i.e., two-fold increase in moisture regain and decrease in water contact angle from 130 to 0 degrees. The mineralized cottons also exhibited improved thermal resistance, i.e., slower thermal decomposition with decreased activation energies and reduction in heat release capacity by up to 40%. Hydroentangled nonwovens of raw white cotton fiber, scoured white cotton fiber, and raw brown cotton fiber are effective hosts for mineralization of calcium carbonate polymorphs to modify and improve their thermal and surface properties.![]()

Abstract
This study aimed to improve the pore size, porosity, and hydrophobicity of polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) membranes for desalination by vacuum membrane distillation (VMD). New membranes were prepared via etching PVDF/calcium carbonate (CaCO3) composite membranes using hydrochloric acid (HCl), depending on the chemical reaction of CaCO3 and HCl. Etched membranes were characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), X-ray diffraction (XRD), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), contact angle (CA), atomic force microscope (AFM), and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The results showed that CaCO3 of composite membranes was completely reacted by 1.5 mol/L HCl after composite membranes had been etched 90 min. The crystallinity of etched membranes was the same as that of PVDF/CaCO3 composite membranes, and no new functional groups appeared in etched membranes, which indicated that etched membranes had good chemical stability. The surface roughness increased and led to the increase of contact angle, which means the hydrophobicity of etched membranes was enhanced. As a result, the increment of permeation flux had been improved in a VMD process. It was found that the maximum flux of etched membrane was enhanced and up to 1.65 times of composite membrane when the concentration of sodium chloride (NaCl) solution was 5.0 wt%, and the maximum flux reached up to 30.9 kg m-2 h-1.

Abstract
The antifouling process of the membrane is very vital for the highly efficient treatment of industrial wastewater, especially high salinity wastewater containing oil and other pollutants. In the present work, the dynamical antifouling mechanism is explored via molecular dynamics simulations, while the corresponding experiments about surface properties of the zwitterionic monomer-grafted polyvinylidene difluoride membrane are designed to verify the simulated mechanism. Water can form a stable hydration layer at the grafted membrane surface, where all the simulated radial distribution function of water/membrane, hydrogen bond number, water diffusivity, and experimental oil contact angles are stable. However, the water flux across the membrane will increase first and then decrease as the grafting ratio increases, which not only depends on the reduced pore size of the zwitterionic monomer-grafted membrane but also results from water diffusion. Furthermore, the dynamical fouling processes of pollutants (taking sodium alginate as an example) on the grafted membrane in water and brine solution are investigated, where both the high grafting ratio and electrolyte CaCl2 can enhance the fouling energy barrier of the pollutant. The results show that both the enhanced hydrophilic property and the electrostatic repulsion can affect the antifouling capability of the grafted membrane. Finally, the ternary synergistic antifouling mechanisms among the zwitterionic membrane, electrolyte, and pollutant sodium alginates are discussed, which could be helpful for the rational design and preparation of new and highly efficient zwitterionic antifouling membranes.

Abstract
Ultrafiltration (UF) is one of the significant advanced processes for oily wastewater treatment due to its clear advantages, for instance, ease in operation and efficient separation. The main drawback of these processes is the fouling problem and many researchers' effort on fabrication of high-performance membranes with higher hydrophilicity and antifouling properties. In this study, flat-sheet polysulfone (PSF)/polyethylenimine (PEI)/CaCO3 nanocomposite membranes were prepared by phase inversion method for oil/water emulsion separation. Structural properties of membranes were characterized by SEM, FT-IR, contact angle, tensile strength, and atomic force microscopy analysis. Increasing the CaCO3 nanoparticle loading exhibited the increased the water flux and BSA rejection. PSF/PEI/10 wt% CaCO3 nanocomposite membranes have 145 L/m2 h water flux at 2 bar with a contact angle of 84° and with 92% BSA rejection. All prepared CaCO3 nanocomposite membranes reached similar oil rejections at above 90%. Besides the higher water flux and oil removal efficiencies, 10 wt% of CaCO3 nanoparticle-blended PSF membranes has notable antifouling capacity with the highest flux recovery ratio (FRR) and lowest flux decay ratio (DR) values. The results showed that there is a great potential to use PSF/PEI/CaCO3 nanocomposite membranes for the treatment of oil water emulsions with higher permeability and antifouling capacity.

Abstract
Internal concentration polarization (ICP) is a major issue in forward osmosis (FO) as it can significantly reduce the water flux in FO operations. It is known that a hydrophilic substrate and a smaller membrane structure parameter (S) are effective against ICP. This paper reports the development of a thin film composite (TFC) FO membrane with a hydrophilic mineral (CaCO3)-coated polyethersulfone (PES)-based substrate. The CaCO3 coating was applied continuously and uniformly on the membrane pore surfaces throughout the TFC substrate. Due to the intrinsic hydrophilicity of the CaCO3 coating, the substrate hydrophilicity was significantly increased and the membrane S parameter was reduced to as low as the current best of cellulose-based membranes but without the mechanical fragility of the latter. As a result, the ICP of the TFC-FO membrane could be significantly reduced to yield a remarkable increase in water flux without the loss of membrane selectivity.
