WATER RESEARCH 2024; 257:121745. [PMID: 38733965 DOI: 10.1016/j.watres.2024.121745] [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: 02/21/2024] [Revised: 04/10/2024] [Accepted: 05/06/2024] [Indexed: 05/13/2024]
Abstract
Polyester-amide (PEA) thin film composite (TFC) NF membranes have rapidly evolved towards a competitive performance, benefiting from their remarkable antifouling capability and superior chlorine resistance. In this report, a new concept of synergistic interfacial polymerization is explored, which promptly triggers the reaction between hydramines and trimesoyl chloride (TMC) in the presence of a trace amount of diamines. This rapid-start mode enables the formation of defect-free PEA films without the requirement of catalysis. A comprehensive characterization of physicochemical properties using high-resolution mass spectrometer (HRMS) reveals that the recombination and formation of a "hydramine-diamine" coupling unit plays a decisive role in activating the synergistic interfacial polymerization reaction with TMC molecules. Taking the pair of serinol and piperazine (PIP) as an example, the PEA-NF membrane fabricated with 0.1 w/v% serinol mixed with 0.04 w/v% PIP as water-soluble monomer and 0.1 w/v% TMC as oil phase monomer was found to have a pure water permeability (PWP) of 18.5 L·m-2·h-1·bar-1 and a MgSO4 rejection of 95.5 %, which surpasses almost all the reported PEA NF membranes. Findings of the current research provide more possibilities for the low-cost and rapid synthesis of high-performance PEA membranes aiming for water purification.

Abstract
The successful implementation of thin-film composite membranes (TFCM) for challenging solute-solute separations in the pharmaceutical industry requires a fine control over the microstructure (size, distribution, and connectivity of the free-volume elements) and thickness of the selective layer. For example, desalinating antibiotic streams requires highly interconnected free-volume elements of the right size to block antibiotics but allow the passage of salt ions and water. Here, we introduce stevioside, a plant-derived contorted glycoside, as a promising aqueous phase monomer for optimizing the microstructure of TFCM made via interfacial polymerization. The low diffusion rate and moderate reactivity of stevioside, together with its nonplanar and distorted conformation, produced thin selective layers with an ideal microporosity for antibiotic desalination. For example, an optimized 18-nm membrane exhibited an unprecedented combination of high water permeance (81.2 liter m-2 hour-1 bar-1), antibiotic desalination efficiency (NaCl/tetracycline separation factor of 11.4), antifouling performance, and chlorine resistance.

Abstract
Nanofiltration (NF) membranes have been widely used in various fields including water treatment and other separation processes, while conventional thin film composite (TFC) membranes with polyamide (PA) selective layers suffer the problems of fouling and chlorine intolerance. Due to the abundant hydrophilic hydroxyl groups and ester bonds free from chlorine attack, the TFC membranes composed of polyester (PE) or polyester-amide (PEA) selective layers have been proven to possess enhanced anti-fouling properties and superior chlorine resistance. In this review, the research progress of PE and PEA nanofiltration membranes is systematically summarized according to the variety of hydroxyl-containing monomers for membrane fabrication by the interfacial polymerization (IP) reaction. The synthesis strategies as well as the mechanisms for tailoring properties and performance of PE and PEA membranes are analyzed, and the membrane application advantages are demonstrated. Moreover, current challenges and future perspectives of the development of PE and PEA nanofiltration membranes are proposed. This review can offer guidance for designing high-performance PE and PEA membranes, thereby further promoting the efficacy of nanofiltration.

Abstract
Thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU) membrane has super physical-mechanical properties and biocompatibility, but the surface is inert and lack of active groups which limit its application in cell culture. Silk sericin (SS) can improve cell adhesion, proliferation, growth and metabolism. In this paper, SS was grafted onto the surface of TPU membrane by -NH2 bridge to build a high efficiency cell culture membrane. The FT-IR spectrum results indicated SS was grafted by chemical bond. According to the SEM and AFM results, we found that the grafting of SS reduced the water contact angle by 43.31% and increased the surface roughness by about four times. When TPU-SS was used for HepG2 cell culture, the cell adhesion rate of TPU-SS was significantly higher than that of the general TCPS cell culture plate, and the cell proliferation rate was close to that of TCPS. FDA/EB staining showed that HepG2 cells remained a better cellular growth behavior. HepG2 cells had higher cell vitality including the albumin secretion and the intracellular total protein synthesis. Grafting SS maintained the stability of cell and significantly decreased the cytotoxicity by decreased LDH release. In conclusion, SS grafting is beneficial to cell culture in vitro, and provides a key material for bioartificial liver culture system.

Abstract
Antibacterial coating is necessary to prevent biofilm-forming bacteria from colonising medical tools causing infection and sepsis in patients. The recent coating strategies such as immobilisation of antimicrobial materials and low-pressure plasma polymerisation may require multiple processing steps involving a high-vacuum system and time-consuming process. Some of those have limited efficacy and durability. Here, we report a rapid and one-step atmospheric pressure plasma polymerisation (APPP) of D-limonene to produce nano-thin films with hydrophobic-like properties for antibacterial applications. The influence of plasma polymerisation time on the thickness, surface characteristic, and chemical composition of the plasma-polymerised films was systematically investigated. Results showed that the nano-thin films deposited at 1 min on glass substrate are optically transparent and homogenous, with a thickness of 44.3 ± 4.8 nm, a smooth surface with an average roughness of 0.23 ± 0.02 nm. For its antimicrobial activity, the biofilm assay evaluation revealed a significant 94% decrease in the number of Escherichia coli (E. coli) compared to the control sample. More importantly, the resultant nano-thin films exhibited a potent bactericidal effect that can distort and rupture the membrane of the treated bacteria. These findings provide important insights into the development of bacteria-resistant and biocompatible coatings on the arbitrary substrate in a straightforward and cost-effective route at atmospheric pressure.

Abstract
Loose nanofiltration (LNF) membranes with a molecular weight cut-off (MWCO) of about 1000 Da and high surface negative charge density have great application potential for drinking water treatment pursuing high rejection selectivity between natural organic matter (NOM) and mineral salts. This study was conducted to exploit the novel method coupling non-solvent induced phase separation (NIPS) and interfacial polymerization (IP) for the preparation of high-performance LNF membranes. A number of LNF membranes were synthesized by varying the polyethersulfone (PES) and piperazine (PIP) concentrations in the cast solution for the PES support layer preparation. Results showed that these two conditions could greatly affect the membrane water permeance, MWCO and surface charge. One LNF membrane, with a water permeance as high as 23.0 ± 1.8 L/m2/h/bar, when used for the filtration of conventional process-treated natural water, demonstrated a rejection of NOM higher than 70% and a low rejection of mineral salts at about 20%. Both the mineral salts/NOM selectivity and permselectivity were superior to the currently available LNF membranes as far as the authors know. This study demonstrated the great advantage of the NIPS-IP method for the fabrication of LNF membranes, particularly for the advanced treatment of drinking water.

Abstract
Tuning the crosslinking density of interfacial-polymerized nanofiltration (NF) membranes varying from loose to dense structures can make them meet the demand of various applications. The properties (e.g., pore size and porosity) of NF membranes can be tuned by choosing monomers with different structures and reactivities. Herein, tris(hydroxymethyl)aminomethane (THAM), a low-cost and green monomer, is first employed for the preparation of poly(ester amide) (PEA) thin-film composite membranes via interfacial polymerization. The moderate reactivity of THAM enables rational regulation of the crosslinking density of PEA membranes from loose to dense structures by varying the THAM concentration, which can hardly be achieved for traditional polyamide or polyester membranes. The developed PEA membranes with a wide tunability range of crosslinking densities broaden their potential utility in NF. PEA membranes with dense structures show exceptional desalination performance with a water permeance of 11.1 L m-2 h-1 bar-1 and a Na2SO4 rejection of 97.1%. However, loose PEA membranes exhibit good dye/salt separation performance with a dye removal rate over 95.0% and negligible NaCl rejection (<7.5%), as well as high water permeance (>45 L m-2 h-1 bar-1). This work implies that PEA membranes with tunable crosslinked structures provide new possibilities for the development of task-specific separation membranes.

Abstract
The use of Polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) membranes is constrained in wastewater treatment because of their hydrophobic nature. Therefore, a large number of researchers have been working on the hydrophilic modification of their surfaces. In this work, a superhydrophilic tea polyphenols/silica composite coating was developed by a one-step process. The composite coating can achieve not only superhydrophilic modification of the surface, but also the inner surface of the porous PVDF membrane, which endows the modified membrane with excellent water permeability. The modified membrane possesses ultrahigh water flux (15,353 L·m−2·h−1). Besides this, the modified membrane can realize a highly efficient separation of oil/water emulsions (above 96%).

Abstract
Effective dye separation and desalination are critical for the treatment of highly saline textile wastewater with dye mixtures. In this study, a graphene oxide (GO) membrane with a tunable interlayer distance (d) was fabricated to generate clean water via two-stage filtration, namely, the dye/salt separation and desalination stages. In the first stage, under low pressure (e.g., 0.3 MPa), the membrane with a d value of ca. 7.60 Å was suitable for removing the dye from the saline wastewater. The dye and salt (i.e., Na2SO4) rejection rates of >99% and <6.5% were achieved, respectively, indicating the significant potential to recycle the dyes from the highly saline dye wastewater. In the second stage, under a higher pressure (e.g., 0.8 MPa), the d value was reduced to ca. 7.15 Å, bestowing the membrane with a desalination function. The desalination rate of a single filtration process could reach up to 51.8% from 1.0 g/L saline (i.e., Na2SO4) water. The as-prepared membrane also exhibited excellent practical advantages, including ultrahigh permeability, significant antifouling (against dye) performance, and excellent stability. Furthermore, with the stacking of multistage filtration systems, the proposed membrane technology will be capable of regenerating dye and producing clean water.

Abstract
The weak interlamellar interaction of covalent organic framework (COF) nanocrystals inhibit the construction of highly efficient ion/molecular sieving membranes owing to the inferior contaminant selectivity induced by defects in stacked COF membranes and stability issues. Here, a facile in situ molecularly soldered strategy was developed to fabricate defect-free ultrathin COF membranes with precise sieving abilities using the typical chemical environment for COF condensation polymerization and dopamine self-polymerization. The experimental data and density functional theory simulations proved that the reactive oxygen species generated during dopamine polymerization catalyze the nucleophilic reactions of the COF, thus facilitating the counter-diffusion growth of thin COF layers. Notably, dopamine can eliminate the defects in the stacked COF by soldering the COF crystals, fortifying the mechanical properties of the ultrathin COF membranes. The COF membranes exhibited ultrafast precision sieving for molecular separation and ion removal in both aqueous and organic solvents, which surpasses that of state-of-the-art membranes.

Abstract
There is an increase in concern about the hazardous effects of radioactivity due to the presence of undesirable radioactive substances in our vicinity. Nuclear accidents such as Chernobyl (1986) and Fukushima (2011) have further raised concerns towards such incidents which have led to contamination of water bodies. Conventional methods of water purification are less efficient in decontamination of radioisotopes. They are usually neither cost-effective nor environmentally friendly. However, nanotechnology can play a vital role in providing practical solutions to this problem. Nano-engineered materials like metal oxides, metallic organic frameworks, and nanoparticle-impregnated membranes have proven to be highly efficient in treating contaminated water. Their unique characteristics such as high adsorption capacity, large specific surface area, high tensile strength, and excellent biocompatibility properties make them useful in the field of water purification. This review explores the present status and future prospects of nanomaterials as the next-generation water purification systems that can play an important role in the removal of heavy metals and radioactive contaminants from aqueous solutions.

Abstract
A magnesium silicate polymeric coagulant (MgSiPC), which is an inorganic polymer for dye removal from wastewater, was prepared with different pH by copolymerization. The acidity was a key factor in the preparation of the MgSiPC. In the present research, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), X-ray diffraction (XRD), and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) were used to analyze the characterization of optimum coagulants. Additionally, the response surface method (RSM) was applied to optimize the process of coagulation-flocculation. The results of FT-IR and XRD implied that the main components of the MgSiPC with pH 1.50-2.50 were almost the same. SEM images showed that MgSiPCs with pH 1.50-2.50 exhibited different structures including cluster and lamellar shape structure, compact rod-like and network structure, and a kind of irregular geometry shape structure. In the process of coagulation-flocculation, MgSiPCs with pH 1.50-2.50 showed highly efficient coagulation performance. The removal rate of reactive yellow 2(RY2) could reach above 90% at a dosage of 50-70 mg/L and initial pH 12.00, while the removal rate of reactive blue 2 (RB2) could attain above 93% at a dosage of 50-80 mg/L and initial pH 12.00. Moreover, MgSiPCs with pH 2.00 had the highest efficiency. The results of RSM showed that the optimum combination of the MgSiPC's dosage and initial pH was 62 mg/L and 12.08 for RY2 and 78 mg/L and 12.00 for RB2, respectively. Under optimum experimental conditions, the predicted data from this model were 96% for RY2 and 100% for RB2, which was consistent with the actual experimental data. Therefore, a pH of 2.00 is considered to be the optimal acidity for preparing MgSiPCs.

Abstract
Nanofiltration (NF) is extensively applied after coagulation, which is conducive to alleviate organic fouling on NF membranes and improve water purification performance. However, inorganic fouling, which remains the major obstacle to limit the wider application of NF, could be enhanced by even low dosage coagulant. Few researchers realize the existence of coagulant-enhanced scaling, much less control it. This study investigated the effects of pH values on ferric-coagulant-influenced membrane performance during the nanofiltration of brackish water. Both membrane flux behavior (initial membrane flux, normalized flux during filtration, scaling resistance and scaling composition) and ion interception (filtrate conductivity and ions removal) were considered. Solution properties (zeta potential and nanoparticle size) were measured, and coagulant speciation variation was stimulated by Visual MINTEQ software. Mechanisms of ferric-coagulant-influenced membrane performance were analyzed from two aspects on the basis of correlation analyses: interface interaction on membrane surface and salts crystallization process (bulk crystallization and surface crystallization). Results showed that both bulk crystallization in feed solution and surface crystallization on membrane surface were dramatically induced by coagulant. Coagulant-enhanced fouling layer resistance decreased after the initial increase when pH varied from 3.0 to 10.0. Fe(OH)3, a kind of active ingredients in ferric coagulant, was highly responsible for the enhanced scaling layer resistance. Coagulant was found improving ionic removal under acidic conditions despite the fact that it could worsen removal under alkaline conditions. This study is of valuable reference to figure out the mechanisms of coagulant-influenced membrane performance and find a feasible approach to avoid membrane deterioration in coagulant-influenced NF process.

Abstract
It is known that the polyamide (PA) barrier layer's inherent microstructure and surface physicochemical properties of thin film composite nanofiltration membrane are crucial for its separation performance. Herein, we designed and synthesized a new zwitterionic aromatic diamine monomer 3-(4-(2-((4-aminophenyl)amino)ethyl)morpholino-4-ium)propane-1-sulfonate (PPD-MEPS) through a three steps reaction, and this hydrophilic molecule was incorporated into the active layer to tailor the poly(piperazine-amide)-based nanofiltration membranes with significantly improved water permeability and antifouling properties. As a p-phenylenediamine (PPD) derivative, PPD-MEPS possesses two active amine units, which can react with trimesoyl chloride in the organic phase during the interfacial polymerization reaction process. Thus, the super-hydrophilic zwitterions were not only on the membrane surface but also across the whole PA layer to facilitate water molecule transportation. The successful augmentation of zwitterions into the PA layer was well illustrated by attenuated total reflectance-Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (ATR-FTIR) results and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy analysis. With increasing loading content of PPD-MEPS in PIP aqueous solution, the as-fabricated nanofiltration membranes (NFMs) exhibited higher hydrophilicity, increased active layer thickness, and molecular weight cut off. When the zwitterionic monomer reached 60% to PIP for NFM-4, the water permeability went up to 9.82 L m-2 h-1 bar-1, increasing by 45%; meanwhile, the Na2SO4/NaCl selectivity increased from 2.54 to 4.03. In addition, the fouling experiments illustrated that the fouling resistance of the zwitterion-modified NFMs to bovine serum albumin was significantly improved.

Abstract
This research focused on the influence of post-treatment using alkali-catalyzed hydrolysis with a full-aromatic nanofiltration (NF) polyamide membrane and its application to the efficient removal of selected dyes. The post-treated membranes were characterized through Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, goniometry, and zeta-potential analysis to analyze the treatment-induced changes in the intrinsic properties of the membrane. Furthermore, the changes in permeability induced by the post-treatment were evaluated via the measurement of water flux, NaCl rejection, and molecular weight cutoff (MWCO) under different pH conditions and post-treatment times. Major changes induced by the post-treatment in terms of physicochemical properties were the enhancement of permeability, hydrophilicity, and negative charge due to the hydrolysis of the membrane’s amide bonds. Four different dyes were selected as representative organic pollutants considering the MWCO of the post-treated membranes. Compared with the pristine NF membrane, membranes post-treated at pH 13.5 showed better water flux with similar rejection of the target dyes. On the basis of these results, the proposed post-treatment method for NF membranes can be applied to the removal of organic pollutants of various size.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Synthetic dye wastewater is a group of environmental pollutants that are widely used in some industries like textile, printing, dyeing and etc. Traditional treatment methods for wastewaters containing synthetic dyes are considered as expensive and time consuming approaches due to the chemical stability of these pollutants. Therefore, in recent years, biodegradation by means of capable microorganisms has been considered as an effective way to remove these pollutants. Hence, the present study has aimed at examining the decolorization of Toluidine Red (C.I. no.12120), which is an oil soluble azo dye, as the sole sources of carbon and energy from a synthetic dye wastewater by the halophilic Halomonas strain Gb bacterium. In order to model, optimize, and investigate the individual factors affecting the biodegradation capacity of this dye by Halomonas strain Gb, for the first time response surface methodology (RSM) and central composite design (CCD) were applied. METHODS In this research, statistical modeling and optimization were performed by Design Expert software version 10 and the degradation capacity was considered by carrying out 30 tests using RSM method. For this purpose, the effect of 4 variables included dye concentration (10-30 ppm), salt concentration (2-10%), pH (5.5-9.5), and temperature (20-40) at different times of 2nd, 4th, and 10th days have been studied. Then, a second-order function was presented for the amount of dye removal in terms of the four selected variables, based on statistical modeling. RESULTS According to the obtained results and analysis of variance, all main variables were found to be significantly effective on the biodegradation capacity. With regard to the results, the highest amount of biodegradation between different days was 81% and observed at the 4th day, while the optimum conditions for the maximum biodegradation of this time has been determined at pH of 6.5, temperature of 35 °C, and salt and dye concentrations were equivalent to 4% and 25 ppm, respectively. There is 11% relative error between the experimental and predicted results in the selected experiments, which confirms the reliability of the obtained correlation for calculating the decolorization capacity. CONCLUSION In accordance with the results, the proposed model can provide a good prediction of the effect of different conditions on the biodegradation of Toluidine Red, and the optimization results in this study have been consistent with the previous studies conducted with the IP8 and D2 strains by the OFAT method. Moreover, the proposed model may help in better understanding the impact of main effects and interaction between variables on the dye removal. Overall, the results indicated that the halophilic bacterium used in dye removal can be more effective in high-salinity environments.
