Abstract
Current hydrophilic modification strategies improve the antifouling ability of membranes but fail to completely eliminate the fouling of emulsified oil droplets with a wide size distribution. Constructing membranes with superior anti-oil-fouling ability to resist various oil droplets especially at high permeation fluxes is challenging. Here, the fabrication of a zero-oil-fouling membrane by grafting considerably high coverage of zwitterionic polymer and building defect-free hydration defense barrier on the surface is reported. A uniform layer of protocatechuic acid with COOH as abundant as existing in every molecule is stably deposited on the membrane so as to provide sufficient reactive sites and achieve dense grafting of the zwitterionic polymer. The coverage of zwitterionic polymer on the membrane plays a crucial role in promoting the antifouling ability to emulsified oil droplets. The poly(vinylidene fluoride) membrane with 93% coverage of the zwitterionic polymer exhibits zero oil fouling when separating multitudinous oil-in-water emulsions with ≈0% flux decline, ≈100% flux recovery, and a high water flux of ≈800 L m-2 h-1 bar-1. This membrane outperforms almost all of the reported membranes in terms of the comprehensive antifouling performance. This work provides a feasible route for manufacturing super-antifouling membranes toward oil/water separation application.

Abstract
One of the most dangerous types of pollution to the environment is oily wastewater, which is produced from a number of industrial sources and can cause damage to the environment, people, and creatures. To overcome this issue, membrane technology as an advanced method has been considered for treating oily wastewater due to its stability, high removal efficiency, and simplicity in scaling up. Membrane fouling, or the accumulation of oil droplets at or within the membrane pores, compromises the efficiency of membrane separation and water flux. In the last decade, the fabrication of membranes with specific wettability to reduce fouling has received much consideration. The purpose of this article is to offer a literature overview of all fabricated anti-fouling super(wetting and anti-wetting) membranes for applicable membrane processes for the separation of immiscible and emulsified oil/water mixtures. In this review, we first explain membrane fouling and discuss methods for preventing it. Afterwards, in all membrane separation processes, including pressure-driven, gravity-driven, and thermal-driven, membranes based on the form and density of oil are categorized as oil-removing or water-removing with special wettability, and then their wettability modification with different materials is particularly discussed. Finally, the prospect of anti-fouling membrane fabrication in the future is presented.

Abstract
Due to the great fouling resistance property, (super)hydrophilic/underwater superoleophobic membranes are prevalent candidates for oil-polluted wastewater treatment. Even so, membrane fouling inevitably occurs during long-term operation. Therefore, it is of great significance to construct anti-fouling membranes with robust flux recovery. Herein, a polyvinyl pyrrolidone (PVP) coated porous potassium-doped g-C3N4 (PKCN) membrane was fabricated for the first time by vacuum filtration. The as-prepared membrane displays enhanced hydrophilicity and underwater superoleophobicity. The permeability of the membrane increased significantly after sonication treatment, which is attributed to the increased pore volume and small nanosheets size that shorten the transport pathway of water molecules. Importantly, owing to the high photo-Fenton activity, the PKCN membrane exhibits fast (within 15 min) and excellent flux recovery (96.5%) after the photo-Fenton cleaning process. Furthermore, after 10 repeated usages, the PKCN membrane still keeps stable permeability and excellent purification efficiency. This work opens a door for developing self-cleaning membranes with the superior anti-fouling ability for effective oil/water separation.

Abstract
Hydrophobic micro-porous membrane such as polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) with excellent thermal-/chemical-stability and low surface energy has received extensive attention in industrial water treatment and sustainable energy conversion. However, undesirable contaminants caused by inevitable proteins or microorganisms adhesion may lead to a rapid loss of separation efficiency, which significantly deteriorate their porous structures and eventually limit their practical performance. Herein, we present a scalable approach for fabricating comb-like copolymer modified PVDF membranes (PVDF-PN@AgNPs) that prevent bacteria from proliferating on the surface and temperature-controlled release of adhered contaminants. Comb-like structured copolymers were imparted to a polydopamine (PDA)-treated PVDF membrane by Michael addition reaction, which enabled a covalent binding of comb-like structured copolymers to the membrane. Such unique structural design of grafted copolymer, containing hydrophilic side chain and temperature-responsive chain backbone, stably prevents bacteria adhesion and provides reversible surface wettability. Therefore, the resultant membranes were evaluated to prevent bacterial adhesion, high touch-killing efficiency and temperature-controlled contaminants release (~99% of protein and ~75% of bacteria). Moreover, with the collapse and stretch of grafted copolymer chain backbone, the synthetic membrane further reversibly adjusted inner micro-porous structure and surface wettability, which eventually helped to achieve variable water fluid transport efficiency. This study not only provides a feasible structural design for stably coping with the challenging of antifouling and subsequent contamination adhesion of PVDF membrane, but also potentially answers the significant gap between lab research advances and practical application, particularly in the industrial membrane field.

Abstract
Membrane fouling is the obstacle that limits the practical application of membranes in efficient oil/water separation. The main reason for membrane fouling is the deposition of the dispersed phase (e.g., oil) on the membrane surface based on the sieving effect. The key challenge for solving the fouling problem is to achieve fouling removal via rationally considering hydrodynamics and interfacial science. Herein, a poly(vinylidene fluoride) membrane with a dual-scale hyperporous structure and rational wettability is designed to achieve a continuous "nonfouling" separation for oil/water emulsions via membrane demulsification. The membrane is fabricated via dual-phase separation (vapor and nonsolvent) and modified by in situ polymerization of poly(hydroxyethyl methylacrylate) (contact angle 59 ± 1°). The membrane shows stable permeability (1078 ± 50 Lm-2h-1bar-1) and high separation efficiency (>99.0%) in 2 h of continuous cross-flow without physicochemical washing compared to superwetting membranes. The permeation is composed of two distinct immiscible liquid phases via coalescence demulsification. The surface shearing and pore throat collision coalescence demulsification mechanism is proposed, and rational interface wettability facilitates the foulant/membrane interaction for "nonfouling" separation. Beyond superwetting surfaces, a new strategy for achieving "nonfouling" emulsion separation by designing membranes with a dual-scale hyperporous structure and rational wettability is provided.

Abstract
The major problem that limits the utilization of PES membranes in treatment of oily wastewater is the drastic irreversible membrane fouling due to the attachment of oil droplets onto the membrane surface. The goal of this study was to develop a novel, fast and facile post-functionalization of polydopamine (PDA) coated membranes using pre-synthesized nanoparticles for fabrication of novel organic-inorganic hybrid recoverable membranes with high hydrophilicity and underwater oleophobicity. Here, bio-inspired technique was studied because the membrane technology could separate small oil droplets (even <10 µm) with high performance if faced little fouling phenomena during the treatment process. The amino-functionalized multi-wall carbon nanotubes (N-MWCNTs) were anchored onto the PDA coated PES membranes. The membranes characteristics, with specific focus on surface morphology and wettability were investigated. The newly developed PES/PDA/N-MWCNTs membranes showed an enhanced flux (~1086%) compared to the unmodified PES membrane. This enhancement was attributed to the high hydrophilic and underwater oleophobic properties, which were found to alleviate the effect of fouling. The total fouling ratio (Rt) of the PES/PDA/N-MWCNTs membrane was 22.35%, which was far lower than that of the unmodified PES membrane (98.38%). Meanwhile, most of the fouling was reversible for the former with the remaining (irreversible fouling) of 18.08%. It was concluded that cake filtration is the dominant fouling mechanism of the PES/PDA/N-MWCNTs membranes due to their average pore diameter. The modified membranes showed high oil rejection (>99%) so that the obtained clean water with oil concentration lower than 5 ppm met the wastewater discharge standard recommendations. Also, evaluation of the PES/PDA/N-MWCNT membrane in cross-flow filtration showed its antifouling properties in the long-term application (16 h).
