Abstract
Cyclodextrins have been frequently used to fabricate membranes via interfacial polymerization (IP). However, the relatively low reactivity of pristine cyclodextrins often induces a lower cross-linking density and unsatisfactory separation performance. In this work, to introduce a highly active thiolated β-cyclodextrin (CD-SH) monomer into IP progress, we constructed a dense and porous poly(thioester) linkage on a commercial membrane surface with loose nanofiltration by IP of CD-SH and trimesoyl trichloride (TMC) as the monomer in an aqueous phase and organic phase separately for the first time. Furthermore, the reactivity of CD-SH has been fully demonstrated by the two-phase IP aiming at unmodified β-CD, a CD-SH/TMC freestanding membrane with a thicker interfacial layer and a smoother surface, and a PAN/CD-SH membrane with a narrow porous distribution. The composite membrane possessed superior separation performance for a high rejection (83.1-99.6%) of different anionic dyes and a low rejection (<20%) of salts, as well as a high-efficiency sieving ability of dye/dye and dye/salt mixtures. The membrane with a poly(thioester) selective layer could steadily operate in a long-term filtration test and exhibit great stability, chloride-resistance performance, and recyclability.

Abstract
Herein, this paper details a comprehensive review on the biopolymeric membrane applications in micropollutants' removal from wastewater. As such, the implications of utilising non-biodegradable membrane materials are outlined. In comparison, considerations on the concept of utilising nanostructured biodegradable polymeric membranes are also outlined. Such biodegradable polymers under considerations include biopolymers-derived cellulose and carrageenan. The advantages of these biopolymer materials include renewability, biocompatibility, biodegradability, and cost-effectiveness when compared to non-biodegradable polymers. The modifications of the biopolymeric membranes were also deliberated in detail. This included the utilisation of cellulose as matrix support for nanomaterials. Furthermore, attention towards the recent advances on using nanofillers towards the stabilisation and enhancement of biopolymeric membrane performances towards organic contaminants removal. It was noted that most of the biopolymeric membrane applications focused on organic dyes (methyl blue, Congo red, azo dyes), crude oil, hexane, and pharmaceutical chemicals such as tetracycline. However, more studies should be dedicated towards emerging pollutants such as micropollutants. The biopolymeric membrane performances such as rejection capabilities, fouling resistance, and water permeability properties were also outlined.

Abstract
Performance declination of nanofiltration (NF) membranes caused by concentration polarization (CP) and membrane fouling has severely restricted their practical application in many fields. This work reports the construction of a novel interlayer between the substrate and the selective layer of conventional composite membranes by coordinating regulation of carbon quantum dots (CQDs) and polydopamine (PDA). Unlike traditional methods that treat CP and fouling separately, the new strategy grants the membrane with dual functions at one time. First, the insertion of the PDA-CQDs layer reformulates the interfacial polymerization process that reduces the solute transport resistance and mitigates the CP issue. Second, the sandwiched photoactive CQDs can degrade organic molecules adsorbed on the membrane surface under visible light, which is promising for low-cost fouling remediation. This study may offer valuable insights into the preparation of durable self-cleaning NF membranes for the effective treatment of complex wastewater in various industries.

Abstract
In the present study, polyoxyethylene (20) sorbitan monolaurate (Tween-20) was employed as a surface coating agent for hydrophilic modification of poly(vinylidene fluoride) microfiltration membranes. The optimized parameters for membrane preparation (i.e., coating temperature, coating concentration, coating time and drying time) were systematically investigated. Contact angle and transmembrane pressure were employed to evaluate the efficiency of the modified membranes, and the optimized parameters were proposed. The removal of chemical oxygen demand (COD) and suspended solids (SS), as well as fouling control performance, was further evaluated. The results showed that the optimized parameters were 40 °C, 4.5 mmol L-1, 45 min and 45 min for coating temperature, coating concentration, coating time and drying time, respectively. Under these conditions, a hydration layer on the surface was formed, resulting in a more hydrophilic membrane surface. During domestic wastewater treatment in membrane bioreactor (MBR), the Tween-20 modified membrane exhibited better performance with rejection efficiencies of 94.56% and 97.53% for COD and SS, respectively. Tween-20 coating could mitigate the increase of transmembrane pressure and reduce the concentration of proteins accumulated on the membrane surface, which was effective for membrane fouling control. Simultaneously, the operation time of MBR was extended from 25 to 46 days. Furthermore, the stability of Tween-20 coated PVDF membrane was also verified. The results indicated that surface coating with Tween-20 is efficient and easy to be carried out, showing a great potential for application in MBR during wastewater treatment.
