Abstract
Ethanol, a versatile chemical extensively employed in several fields, including fuel production, food and beverage, pharmaceutical and healthcare industries, and chemical manufacturing, continues to witness expanding applications. Consequently, there is an ongoing need for cost-effective and environmentally friendly purification technologies for this organic compound in both diluted (ethanol-water-) and concentrated solutions (water-ethanol-). Pervaporation (PV), as a membrane technology, has emerged as a promising solution offering significant reductions in energy and resource consumption during the production of high-purity components. This review aims to provide a panorama of the recent advancements in materials adapted into PV membranes, encompassing polymeric membranes (and possible blending), inorganic membranes, mixed-matrix membranes, and emerging two-dimensional-material membranes. Among these membrane materials, we discuss the ones providing the most relevant performance in separating ethanol from the liquid systems of water-ethanol and ethanol-water, among others. Furthermore, this review identifies the challenges and future opportunities in material design and fabrication techniques, and the establishment of structure-performance relationships. These endeavors aim to propel the development of next-generation pervaporation membranes with an enhanced separation efficiency.

Abstract
The excessive contamination of drinking water sources by pesticides has a pernicious impact on human health and the environment since only 0.1% of pesticides is utilized effectively to control the and the rest is deposited in the environment. Filtration by polymeric membranes has become a promising technique to deal with this problem; however, the scientific community, in the need to find better pesticide retention results, has begun to meddle in the functionalization of polymeric membranes. Given the great variety of membrane, polymer, and nanomaterial synthesis methods present in the market, the possibilities of obtaining membranes that adjust to different variables and characteristics related to a certain pesticide are relatively extensive, so it is expected that this technology will represent one of the main pesticide removal strategies in the future. In this direction, this review focused on, - the main characteristics of the nanomaterials and their impact on pristine polymeric membranes; - the removal performance of functionalized membranes; and - the main mechanisms by which membranes can retain pesticides. Based on these insights, the functionalized polymeric membranes can be considered as a promising technology in the removal of pesticides since the removal performance of this technology against pesticide showed a significant increase. Obtaining membranes that adjust to different variables and characteristics related to a certain pesticide are relatively extensive, so it is expected that functionalized membrane technology will represent one of the main pesticide removal strategies in the future.

Abstract
A fluorescent and photothermal dual-mode assay method was established for the detection of acetylcholinesterase (AChE) activity based on in situ formation of o-phenylenediamine (oPD) cascade polymers. First, copper metal-organic frameworks of benzenetricarboxylic acid (Cu-BTC) were screened out as nanozymes with excellent oxidase-like activity and confinement catalysis effect. Then, an ingenious oPD cascade polymerization strategy was proposed. That is, oPD was oxidized by Cu-BTC to oPD oligomers with strong yellow fluorescence, and oPD oligomers were further catalyzed to generate J-aggregation, which promotes the formation of oPD polymer nanoparticles with a high photothermal effect. By utilizing thiocholine (enzymolysis product of acetylthiocholine) to inhibit the Cu-BTC catalytic effect, AChE activity was detected through the fluorescence-photothermal dual-signal change of oPD oligomers and polymer nanoparticles. Both assay modes have low detection limitation (0.03 U L-1 for fluorescence and 0.05 U L-1 for photothermal) and can accurately detect the AChE activity of human serum (recovery 85.0-111.3%). The detection results of real serum samples by fluorescent and photothermal dual modes are consistent with each other (relative error ≤ 5.2%). It is worth emphasizing that this is the first time to report the high photothermal effect of oPD polymers and the fluorescence-photothermal dual-mode assay of enzyme activity.

Abstract
Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are perceptive modifiers for the creation of mixed matrix membranes to improve the pervaporation performance of polymeric membranes. In this study, novel membranes based on polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) modified with Zr-MOFs (MIL-140A, MIL-140A-AcOH, and MIL-140A-AcOH-EDTA) particles were developed for enhanced pervaporation dehydration of isopropanol. Two membrane types (substrateless-freestanding; and formed on polyacrylonitrile support-composite) were prepared. The additional cross-linking of membranes with glutaraldehyde was carried out to circumvent membrane stability in pervaporation dehydration of diluted solutions. The synthesized Zr-MOFs were characterized by scanning electron microscopy, X-ray powder diffraction analysis, and specific surface area measurement. The structure and physicochemical properties of the developed membranes were investigated by Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy, scanning electron and atomic force microscopies, thermogravimetric analysis, swelling experiments, and contact angle measurements. The PVA and PVA/Zr-MOFs membranes were evaluated in pervaporation dehydration of isopropanol in a wide concentration range. It was found that the composite cross-linked PVA membrane with 10 wt% MIL-140A had optimal pervaporation performance in the isopropanol dehydration (12-100 wt% water) at 22 °C: 0.15-1.33 kg/(m2h) permeation flux, 99.9 wt% water in the permeate, and is promising for the use in the industrial dehydration of alcohols.

Abstract
Membrane-based separations have garnered considerable attention owing to their high energy efficiency, low capital cost, small carbon footprint, and continuous operation mode. As a class of highly porous crystalline materials with well-defined pore systems and rich chemical functionalities, metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) have demonstrated great potential as promising membrane materials over the past few years. Different types of MOF-based membranes, including polycrystalline membranes, mixed matrix membranes (MMMs), and nanosheet-based membranes, have been developed for diversified applications with remarkable separation performances. In this comprehensive review, we first discuss the general classification of membranes and outline the historical development of MOF-based membranes. Subsequently, particular attention is devoted to design strategies for MOF-based membranes, along with detailed discussions on the latest advances on these membranes for various gas and liquid separation processes. Finally, challenges and future opportunities for the industrial implementation of these membranes are identified and outlined with the intent of providing insightful guidance on the design and fabrication of high-performance membranes in the future.

Abstract
Pyrolysis gasoline (Py gas) is used as an octane enhancer of gasoline as it is rich in aromatics. However, removal of carcinogenic benzene from Py gas before blending with gasoline is important to meet the fuel specifications. The main focus of this present study is to determine the sorption kinetics and sorption isotherm of a fabricated insitu nano silver/polyvinyl alcohol (insitu nano Ag/PVA) membrane for pervaporative separation of benzene from model Py gas [mixture of benzene (aromatic) and 1-octene (aliphatic)]. The thickness, surface morphological structure (Atomic Force Microscopy) and degree of swelling of the fabricated membrane were determined. The highest pervaporation separation index achieved for the selected system was 14.259 kg/m2/h at 303 K, with 30 volume% benzene in model Py gas using a downstream pressure of 1 mm of Hg. The sorption kinetics of benzene in insitu nano Ag/PVA membrane obeyed the Elovich model while the Temkin isotherm model fitted the experimental data of the chosen system most accurately.

Abstract
Modern society strives for the development of sustainable processes that are aimed at meeting human needs while preserving the environment. Membrane technologies satisfy all the principles of sustainability due to their advantages, such as cost-effectiveness, environmental friendliness, absence of additional reagents and ease of use compared to traditional separation methods. In the present work, novel green membranes based on sodium alginate (SA) modified by a FeBTC metal–organic framework were developed for isopropanol dehydration using a membrane process, pervaporation. Two kinds of SA-FeBTC membranes were developed: (1) untreated membranes and (2) cross-linked membranes with citric acid or phosphoric acid. The structural and physicochemical properties of the developed SA-FeBTC membranes were studied by spectroscopic techniques (FTIR and NMR), microscopic methods (SEM and AFM), thermogravimetric analysis and swelling experiments. The transport properties of developed SA-FeBTC membranes were studied in the pervaporation of water–isopropanol mixtures. Based on membrane transport properties, 15 wt % FeBTC was demonstrated to be the optimal content of the modifier in the SA matrix for the membrane performance. A membrane based on SA modified by 15 wt % FeBTC and cross-linked with citric acid possessed optimal transport properties for the pervaporation of the water–isopropanol mixture (12–100 wt % water): 174–1584 g/(m2 h) permeation flux and 99.99 wt % water content in the permeate.

Abstract
In the last two decades, metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) have attracted overwhelming attention. With readily tunable structures and functionalities, MOFs offer an unprecedentedly vast degree of design flexibility from enormous number of inorganic and organic building blocks or via postsynthetic modification to produce functional nanoporous materials. A large extent of experimental and computational studies of MOFs have been focused on gas phase applications, particularly the storage of low-carbon footprint energy carriers and the separation of CO2-containing gas mixtures. With progressive success in the synthesis of water- and solvent-resistant MOFs over the past several years, the increasingly active exploration of MOFs has been witnessed for widespread liquid phase applications such as liquid fuel purification, aromatics separation, water treatment, solvent recovery, chemical sensing, chiral separation, drug delivery, biomolecule encapsulation and separation. At this juncture, the recent experimental and computational studies are summarized herein for these multifaceted liquid phase applications to demonstrate the rapid advance in this burgeoning field. The challenges and opportunities moving from laboratory scale towards practical applications are discussed.

[PMID: 33477556 PMCID: PMC7831131 DOI: 10.3390/membranes11010065] [Citation(s) in RCA: 13] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/24/2020] [Revised: 01/13/2021] [Accepted: 01/15/2021] [Indexed: 11/16/2022]
Abstract
A microporous carboxylate metal-organic framework MIL-100 Fe was prepared as submicron particles by microwave-assisted hydrothermal synthesis (Fe-MOF-MW). This product was explored, for the first time, for the preparation of polylactic acid (PLA) mixed matrix membranes. The produced MOF was characterised by powder X-ray diffraction (PXRD), environmental scanning electron microscopy (ESEM) as well as by thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) and nitrogen adsorption/desorption. The effect of different Fe-MOF-MW concentrations (0.1 and 0.5 wt%) on the membrane properties and performance were evaluated. These membranes were used in the pervaporation process for the separation of methanol/methyl tert-butyl-ether mixtures at the azeotropic point. The influence of the feed temperature and vacuum pressure on the membrane performance was evaluated and the results were compared with PLA pristine membranes. Moreover, the produced membranes have been characterised in terms of morphology, MOF dispersion in the polymeric membrane matrix, wettability, thickness, mechanical resistance and swelling propensity. The presence of Fe-MOF-MW was found to have a beneficial effect in improving the selectivity of mixed matrix membranes towards methanol at both concentrations. The highest selectivity was obtained for the PLA membranes embedded with 0.5 wt% of Fe-MOF-MW and tested at the temperature of 25 °C and vacuum pressure of 0.09 mbar.

Abstract
Copper-based metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) with different oxidation states and near-uniform particle sizes have been successfully synthesized. Mixed-matrix polyimide membranes incorporating 0.1–7 wt% of Cu(II) benzene-1,2,5-tricarboxylic acid (Cu(II)BTC), Cu(I/II)BTC and Cu(I) 1,2-ethanedisulfonic acid (EDS) (Cu(I)EDS) MOFs were fabricated via non-solvent-induced phase inversion process. These membranes are found to be solvent resistant and mechanically stable. Liquid phase nanofiltration experiments were performed to separate toluene from n-heptane at room temperature. These membranes demonstrate preferential adsorption and permeation of the aromatic toluene over aliphatic n-heptane. The amount of MOF particles incorporated, the oxidation state of the Cu ion and membrane, and barrier layer thickness have a significant impact on the separation factor. Toluene/heptane separation factor at 1.47, 1.67 and 1.79 can be obtained for membranes incorporating 7 wt% Cu(II)BTC, Cu(I/II)BTC and Cu(I)EDS respectively at room temperature.

Abstract
Pervaporation (PV) has been an intriguing membrane technology for separating liquid mixtures since its commercialization in the 1980s. The design of highly permselective materials used in this respect has made significant improvements in separation properties, such as selectivity, permeability, and long-term stability. Mixed-matrix membranes (MMMs), featuring inorganic fillers dispersed in a polymer matrix to form an organic-inorganic hybrid, have opened up a new avenue to facilely obtain high-performance PV membranes. The combination of inorganic fillers in a polymer matrix endows high flexibility in designing the required separation properties of the membranes, in which various fillers provide specific functions correlated to the separation process. This review discusses recent advances in the use of nanofillers in PV MMMs categorized by dimensions including zero-, one-, two- and three-dimensional nanomaterials. Furthermore, the impact of the nanofillers on the polymer matrix is described to provide in-depth understanding of the structure-performance relationship. Finally, the applications of nanofillers in MMMs for PV separation are summarized.

JOURNAL OF ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT 2020; 261:110189. [PMID: 32148265 DOI: 10.1016/j.jenvman.2020.110189] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/25/2019] [Revised: 12/28/2019] [Accepted: 01/21/2020] [Indexed: 06/10/2023]
Abstract
The removal of styrene from wastewater by pervaporation was investigated by using composite PDMS membranes filled with reduced graphene oxide on PES support layers. Graphene oxide was synthesized through modified Hummers' method and then chemically reduced. The filler was characterized by TEM, SEM, XRD, and AFM. The top layers with different PDMS molecular weights were cast on the PES supports, which were prepared by phase inversion method. The characterizations of prepared membranes were investigated by SEM, AFM, contact angle measurement, TGA, and DSC. It was observed that presence of the filler in the polymeric matrix controls the swelling of the membrane and enhances its solubility parameter in favor of styrene. Moreover, it significantly improves the thermal stability of the membranes. The mechanism of separation in the process was found to be affected mainly by enhancing in the membrane's solubility rather than in its diffusivity. The pervaporative performance of prepared membranes showed their great affinity toward styrene so that the separation factor of the optimum membrane (M2/S) was increased about 250% (600.4 in comparison to 241.4 for the unfilled membrane) while its total flux was decreased from 772.5 g m-2.h-1for the unfilled membrane to 321.9 g m-2.h-1. Increasing the molecular weight of PDMS lowered the optimal rGO content due to the complexity of the diffusion path and occupation of free volume by longer polymer chains. Accordingly, a lower total flux (124.7 g m-2.h-1 for high MW compared to 718.0 g m-2.h-1 for low MW) and higher separation factor (822.5 for high MW compared to 230.8 for low MW) were yielded for the same filler content (0.1 wt% rGO).

Abstract
The structures and applications of metal-organic framework materials (MOFs) have been attracting great interest due to the wide variety of possible applications, for example, chemical sensing, separation, and catalysis. N-[3-(Trimethoxysilyl)propyl]ethylenediamine is grafted on a porous SiO₂ disk to obtain a modified porous SiO₂ disk. A large-scale, continuous, and compact Cu₃(BTC)₂ membrane is prepared based on a modified porous SiO₂ disk. The chemical structure, surface morphology, thermal stability, mechanical stability, and gas separation performance of the obtained Cu₃(BTC)₂ membrane is analyzed and characterized by means of X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) and a gas separation experiment. The results show that the prepared Cu₃(BTC)₂ membrane has an intact morphology with its crystal. It is continuous, compact, and intact, and has good thermal stability and mechanical stability. The result of the gas separation experiment shows that the Cu₃(BTC)₂ membrane has a good selectivity of hydrogen and can be used to recover and purify hydrogen.

Abstract
Cu-BTTri (H3BTTri = 1,3,5-tris[1H-1,2,3-triazol-5-yl]benzene) is a water-stable, copper-based metal-organic framework (MOF) that exhibits the ability to generate therapeutic nitric oxide (NO) from S-nitrosothiols (RSNOs) available within the bloodstream. Immobilization of Cu-BTTri within a polymeric membrane may allow for localized NO generation at the blood-material interface. This work demonstrates that Cu-BTTri can be incorporated within hydrophilic membranes prepared from poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA), a polymer that has been examined for numerous biomedical applications. Following immobilization, the ability of the MOF to produce NO from the endogenous RSNO S-nitrosoglutathione (GSNO) is not significantly inhibited. Poly(vinyl alcohol) membranes containing dispersions of Cu-BTTri were tested for their ability to promote NO release from a 10 μM initial GSNO concentration at pH 7.4 and 37 °C, and NO production was observed at levels associated with antithrombotic therapeutic effects without significant copper leaching (<1%). Over 3.5 ± 0.4 h, 10 wt % Cu-BTTri/PVA membranes converted 97 ± 6% of GSNO into NO, with a maximum NO flux of 0.20 ± 0.02 nmol·cm-2·min-1. Furthermore, it was observed for the first time that Cu-BTTri is capable of inducing NO production from GSNO under aerobic conditions. At pH 6.0, the NO-forming reaction of 10 wt % Cu-BTTri/PVA membrane was accelerated by 22%, while an opposite effect was observed in the case of aqueous copper(II) chloride. Reduced temperature (20 °C) and the presence of the thiol-blocking reagent N-ethylmaleimide (NEM) impair the NO-forming reaction of Cu-BTTri/PVA with GSNO, with both conditions resulting in a decreased NO yield of 16 ± 1% over 3.5 h. Collectively, these findings suggest that Cu-BTTri/PVA membranes may have therapeutic utility through their ability to generate NO from endogenous substrates. Moreover, this work provides a more comprehensive analysis of the parameters that influence Cu-BTTri efficacy, permitting optimization for potential medical applications.

Abstract
Graphene oxide (GO) membranes assembled by single-atom thick GO nanosheets have displayed huge potential application both in gas and liquid separation processes due to its facile and large-scale preparation resulting from various functional groups, such as hydroxyl, carboxyl, and epoxide groups. Taking advantage of these characters, GO membranes intercalated by superhydrophilic metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) as strengthening separation fillers were prepared on modified polyacrylonitrile (PAN) support by a novel pressure-assisted self-assembly (PASA) filtration technique instead of traditional vacuum filtration method for the first time. The synthesized MOF@GO membranes were characterized with several spectroscopic techniques including X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), as well as scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Compared with GO membrane, these MOF@GO membranes combine the unique properties of MOF and GO and thus have significant enhancements of pervaporation (PV) permeation flux and separation factor simultaneously for ethyl acetate/water mixtures (98/2, w/w) through the PV process, which are also superior to the reported other kinds of membranes. Especially, for MOF@GO-0.3 membrane (corresponding MOF loading: 23.08 wt %), the increments are 159% and 244%, respectively, at 303 K, and the permeate water content can reach as high as 99.5 wt % (corresponding separation factor, 9751) with a high permeation flux of 2423 g m-2 h-1. Moreover, the procedures of both the synthesis of MOF and membranes preparation are environmentally friendly that only water was used as solvent. Such a nanosized MOF-intercalating approach may be also extended to other laminated membranes, providing valuable insights in designing and developing of advanced membranes for effective separation of aqueous organic solution through nanostructure manipulation of the nanomaterials.
