Abstract
In this study, molecules of propyl gallate (PG) and polyethylene glycol methacrylate (PEGMA) were covalently bonded via a transesterification reaction and subsequently grafted onto polyvinylidene fluoride substrates using a homogeneous radiation grafting technique. The enhancement of the membranes' hydrophilicity with the increment of the grafting rate was corroborated by scanning electron microscopy imaging and measurements of the water contact angle. At a grafting degree of 10.1% and after a duration of 4 min, the water contact angle could decrease to as low as 40.1°. Cyclic flux testing demonstrated that the membranes modified in this manner consistently achieved a flux recovery rate exceeding 90% across varying degrees of grafting, indicating robust anti-fouling capabilities. Furthermore, these modified membranes exhibited significant antioxidant ability while maintaining antifouling performance over 30 days. The ability of the modified membranes to scavenge 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) and 2,2'-Azino-bis(3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid) diammonium salt (ABTS+) free radicals remained nearly unchanged after being stored in pure water for 30 days, and the flux recovery rate remained above 95% after immersion in sodium hypochlorite solution for 30 days. Among the tested membranes, the PVDF-g-PEGMAG modified membrane with a grafting degree of 7.2% showed the best antioxidant effect.

Abstract
Latex polymer particles have been widely used in industry and everyday life. For decades the fabrication of "smart" latex film from latex particles has been a great challenge due to the difficulty in the synthesis of the functional latex particles by traditional emulsion polymerization using small molecular surfactants. In this manuscript, a simple and environmentally-friendly approach to the fabrication of "smart" latex films with dynamic surfaces is reported. Latex particles with poly(n-butyl methacrylate) (PnBMA) in the cores and zwitterionic poly-3-[dimethyl-[2-(2-methylprop-2-enoyloxy) ethyl]azaniumyl]propane-1-sulfonate (PDMAPS) in the shells are synthesized by reversible addition-fragmentation chain transfer (RAFT) mediated surfactant-free emulsion polymerization. The kinetics for the emulsion polymerization is studied, and the latex particles are analyzed by transmission electron microscopy (TEM), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and dynamic light scattering (DLS). Latex films are prepared by casting aqueous solutions of the latex particles at temperatures above the glass transition temperature (Tg) of PnBMA. On the dried latex film, the hydrophobic PnBMA blocks occupy the top surface; after water treatment, the hydrophilic PDMAPS blocks migrate to the surface. A change in the surface hydrophilicity results in a change in the water contact angle of the latex film. A mechanism for the formation of the dynamic surface structure is proposed in this research. Antifouling applications of the latex films are investigated. Experimental results indicate that the water-treated latex film is able to efficiently inhibit protein adsorption and resist bacterial adhesion.

Abstract
Membrane-based water treatment processes have been established as a powerful approach for clean water production. However, despite the significant advances made in terms of rejection and flux, provision of sustainable and energy-efficient water production is restricted by the inevitable issue of membrane fouling, known to be the major contributor to the elevated operating costs due to frequent chemical cleaning, increased transmembrane resistance, and deterioration of permeate flux. This review provides an overview of fouling control strategies in different membrane processes, such as microfiltration, ultrafiltration, membrane bioreactors, and desalination via reverse osmosis and forward osmosis. Insights into the recent advancements are discussed and efforts made in terms of membrane development, modules arrangement, process optimization, feed pretreatment, and fouling monitoring are highlighted to evaluate their overall impact in energy- and cost-effective water treatment. Major findings in four key aspects are presented, including membrane surface modification, modules design, process integration, and fouling monitoring. Among the above mentioned anti-fouling strategies, a large part of research has been focused on membrane surface modifications using a number of anti-fouling materials whereas much less research has been devoted to membrane module advancements and in-situ fouling monitoring and control. At the end, a critical analysis is provided for each anti-fouling strategy and a rationale framework is provided for design of efficient membranes and process for water treatment.

Abstract
The lubrication property of implanted biomedical devices is of great significance as it affects the clinical performance owing to direct contact with soft tissues. In the present study, a bioinspired copolymer with dual functions of both self-adhesion and lubrication was synthesized with N-(3-aminopropyl) methacrylamide hydrochloride, gallic acid, and 3-[dimethyl-[2-(2-methylprop-2-enoyloxy) ethyl] azaniumyl] propane-1-sulfonate by free radical polymerization and a carbodiimide coupling reaction. The copolymer was further modified on the surface of poly(vinyl chloride) (PVC) samples using a simple dip-coating method and was characterized by different evaluations including Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, the water contact angle, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, optical interferometry, and atomic force microscopy. Additionally, the results of a series of tribological tests at the microscopic level demonstrated that the friction coefficient of the copolymer-coated PVC samples was significantly reduced compared to that of the bare PVC samples. Furthermore, the pull out test at the macroscopic level was performed using copolymer-coated PVC catheters on a poly(dimethylsiloxane)-based test rig, and the result showed that the copolymer-coated PVC catheters were endowed with a greatly decreased and much more stable pull out force compared with that of the bare PVC catheters. In conclusion, the bioinspired self-adhesive lubricated coating developed herein may be applied as a universal and versatile method to enhance the lubrication performance of implanted biomedical devices.

Abstract
Membrane-based technology has been confirmed as an effective way to treat emulsified oily wastewater, however, membrane fouling is still one of practical challenges in long-term operation. Herein, a novel passive-active combined strategy was proposed to control membrane fouling in continuous oily wastewater purification, where the δ-MnO2 decoration layer helped to reduce the total fouling ratio (passive strategy for fouling mitigation) and the catalytic cleaning effectively removed the irreversible oil fouling (active strategy for fouling removal). The functional membrane was prepared via in-situ modification, referred to as δ-MnO2@TA-PES. The morphology, crystalline phase, chemical structure and surface properties of the membranes were systematically characterized. Compared with PES, the δ-MnO2@TA-PES possessed superhydrophilicity, enhanced electronegativity and narrowed pore size. The δ-MnO2@TA-PES achieved high water permeation flux of 723.9 L·m - 2·h - 1·bar-1, excellent oil rejection with separation efficiency above 98.5% for various emulsions, and durable anti-oil-fouling performance with FRRb of 98.0%. Notably, the oil cake layer fouling on δ-MnO2@TA-PES was greatly alleviated owing to its enhanced surface properties. In addition, δ-MnO2@TA-PES showed high cleaning efficiency in the peroxymonosulfate (PMS) cleaning process, where the radical and nonradical pathways occurred simultaneously. And the active substances generated in the nonradical process (especially 1O2) were considered as the main contributor to the reduction of irreversible fouling. Overall, the novel strategy of fouling control ensured the efficient operation of ultrafiltration membranes for the continuous oily wastewater purification.

Abstract
Oil-polluted water has become one of the most important environmental concerns nowadays due to the increasing industrial oily wastewater and frequent oil spill accidents. Herein, a novel two-dimensional (2D) nano-mica sheets assembled composite membrane with underwater super-oleophobic properties was developed for effective oil/water separation. A 2D nano-mica sheet was synthesized by a facile solvent-assisted ultrasonic exfoliation and then the obtained 2D nano-mica sheets were co-deposited with dopamine on polyvinylidene fluoride substrate to prepare nano-mica composite membranes (NCM). The NCM is hydrophilic in air and super-oleophobic underwater (the water contact angle in the air is 37.6°, and the oil contact angle in water is 151.4°). Furthermore, the prepared NCM provided outstanding stability in different acid-base environments (pH = 1-11). Noteworthily, the oil removal rate is higher than 99.5% as the sodium dodecyl sulfate SDS-stabilized oil (soya-bean oil, mineral oil and pump oil) -in-water emulsions. Meanwhile, the NCM showed excellent reusability, as the oil removal efficiency kept at 99.0% after ten soya-bean oil-in-water or mineral oil-in-water emulsion filtration cycles. The present work paved a new way for developing a low-cost and environmentally friendly strategy for oily wastewater treatment and developed a high-increment utilization application field for natural minerals.

Abstract
HYPOTHESIS Polyethylene glycol (PEG) holds considerable potential in the fabrication of antifouling surfaces due to its strong hydration property. However, anchoring PEG polymer as a stable surface coating is still challenging because of its weak surface bonding property. Inspired by the mussel adhesion strategy, it is hypothesized that PEG polymer can be robustly attached onto substrates with the assistance of a "bio-glue" layer. EXPERIMENTS The "bio-glue" layer composited of Levodopa/polyethyleneimine (LP) is firstly deposited onto substrates, followed by covalently anchoring the poly(ethylene glycol) diglycidyl ether (PEGDE) layer via ring-opening reaction. The antifouling property of as-prepared coating was characterized using several techniques including quartz crystal microbalance (QCM) and surface forces apparatus (SFA). Furthermore, the PEGDE/LP coating was applied in membrane functionalization for oil-in-water (O/W) emulsion separation. FINDINGS PEGDE/LP coating shows outstanding stability and superior antifouling properties towards various potential foulants. In the O/W emulsion separation process, the PEGDE/LP-coated membrane maintains its super-hydrophilic property under harsh solution conditions and achieves high water flux (∼3000 L m-2 h-1 bar-1) and 90% water flux recovery ratio for separation of O/W emulsions containing different bio-foulants. This coating strategy provides a promising approach for fabricating stable coating with outstanding antifouling properties in various environmental engineering applications.

Abstract
The industrial revolution has led to different types of environmental pollution, including frequent leakage of crude oil to marine waters and the contamination of wastewater with immiscible or emulsified oils and organic liquids from various industrial residues. Hence, developing multifunctional materials for oil/water separation is a field of high significance for the remediation of oil-polluted water. Recently, advanced superwetting materials have been employed for oily wastewater treatment. This review summarizes the recent development in fabricating superhydrophobic/superoleophilic nanohybrid polyurethane, melamine, and cellulose sponges for oil/water separation. The use of organic and/or inorganic nanohybrid materials opens the horizon for designing a diverse and wide range of superhydrophobic sponges due to the synergistic effect between the surface roughness and chemical composition. The discussion is organized based on different classes of low surface energy materials including thermoplastics, thermosets, elastomers, fluorinated polymers, conductive polymers, organosilanes, long alkyl chain compounds, and hydrophobic carbon-based materials. Recent examples for the separation of both immiscible and emulsified oil/water mixtures are presented, with a focus on fabrication strategies, separation efficiency, recyclability, mechanical performance, and durability. Currently, most studies did not focus on the mechanical/chemical stability of the fabricated sponges, and hence, future research directions shall address the fabrication of robust and long-term durable superhydrophobic sponges with proper guidelines. Similarly, more research focus is required to design superhydrophobic sponges for the separation of emulsified oil/water mixtures and heavy crude oil samples. Superhydrophobic sponges can be employed for treatment of oily wastewater, emulsion separation, and cleanup of crude oil spills.

Abstract
Mixtures of immiscible liquids are commonly found in the scenarios of environmental protection and many industrial applications. Compared to widely explored water-oil mixtures, small differences in the surface energy of organic liquids, especially for those in multiphase mixtures, make their separation a formidable challenge. Here, a family of versatile coatings based on the reactions between plant polyphenols and 3-aminopropyl triethoxysilane is introduced to regulate the wetting behavior of substrates by forming stable liquid-infused interfaces. The key finding is that when a coated substrate is prewetted with a liquid forming a stable liquid-infused interface, it becomes repellent to any other immiscible liquids. This phenomenon is independent of the surface energy of the initial wetting liquid. This exclusive wetting behavior can lead to distinctive repellency toward almost any liquid by the infusion of an immiscible liquid, even if the difference of surface energy and dielectric constant of a liquid pair is as small as 2.0 mJ m-2 and 1.8, respectively, resulting in universal and switchable omni-repellency. Of particular importance is that the as-prepared coating makes possible the on-demand separation of multiphase liquid mixtures by both continuous membrane filtration and static absorption, presenting a green and cost-effective approach to addressing this major environmental and industrial challenge.

Abstract
As industrialization has spread all around the world, the problems of water pollution such as offshore oil spill and industrial sewage discharge have spread with it. Although many new separation materials have been successfully developed to deal with this crisis, a large number of water treatment materials only focus on the treatment of classified single water pollutant under mild conditions. It is a great challenge to treat soluble contaminants such as water-soluble dyes and insoluble contaminants, for example, emulsified oils simultaneously in a strong corrosive environment. Herein, in this work, corrosive resistance and multifunctional surface on a commercial polyvinylidene difluoride (PVDF) membrane via a tunicate-inspired gallic acid-assisted accurate-deposition strategy is created. Owing to the titanium-carboxylic coordination bonding and accurate-deposition strategy, the as-prepared membrane exhibits extraordinary stability, facing various harsh environmental challenges and incredibly corrosive situations (e.g., 4 M NaOH, 4 M HCl, and saturated NaCl solution). The robust multifunctional surface also endows commercial PVDF membrane with the ability for in situ separation and adsorption of surfactant-stabilized oil-in-water (corrosive and dyed) emulsions with high adsorption efficiencies up to 99.9%, separation efficiencies above 99.6%, and permeation flux as high as 15,698 ± 211 L/(m2·h·bar). Furthermore, the resultant membrane can be regenerated facilely and rapidly by flushing a small amount of HCl (4 M) or NaOH (4 M), making the corrosive resistance membrane attain a long-term and high-efficiency application for complex dyed wastewater treatment. Therefore, the multifunctional membrane has a broad application prospect in the industrial field.

Abstract
As reported herein, the waterborne polymers poly(glycidyl methacrylate-co-poly(ethylene glycol) methyl ether methacrylate) P(GMA-co-mPEGMA) and polyethyleneimine (PEI) were used to prepare multipurpose polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) membranes via a direct spray-coating method. P(GMA-co-mPEGMA) and PEI were alternately sprayed onto the PVDF membrane to yield stable cross-linked copolymer coatings. The successful coating of polymers onto the membrane surface was verified by scanning electron microscopy, attenuated total reflectance-Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy characterization. The coated membrane exhibited oil rejection rates that exceeded 99.0% for oil water mixture separation and 98.0% for oil/water emulsion separation. The flux recovery ratio reached 96.7% after bovine serum albumin filtration and washing with water. The removal efficiencies of the coated membrane M3 for Congo red, methyl orange, methylene blue, and crystal violet, Pb(II), Cu(II), and Cd(II) were 82.4, 83.9, 6.3, 26.8, 90.6, 91.3, and 86.2%, respectively. Thus, it can be used for the removal of dyes and heavy metal ions from wastewater. The antibacterial activities of the coated membranes were also confirmed by the inhibition zone tests and confocal laser scanning microscopy analysis. In addition, the cross-linking strategy provides the coated membranes with excellent durability and repeatability. More importantly, the use of water as the solvent can ensure that the application of these membrane coatings proceeds via a very safe and environmentally friendly coating process.

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
In this paper, we propose a facile and cost-effective electrospinning technique to fabricate surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) substrates, which is appropriate for multiple analytes detection. First of all, HAuCl4∙3H2O was added into the TEOS/PVP precursor solution, and flexible SiO2 nanofibers incorporated with gold nanoparticles (SiO2@Au) were prepared by electrospinning and calcination. Subsequently, the nanofibrous membranes were immersed in the tannic acid and 3-aminopropyltriethoxysilane solution for surface modification through Michael addition reaction. Finally, the composite nanofibers (Ag@T-A@SiO2@Au) were obtained by the in-situ growth of Ag nanoparticles on the surfaces of nanofibers with tannic acid as a reducing agent. Due to the synergistic enhancement of Au and Ag nanoparticles, the flexible and self-supporting composite nanofibrous membranes have excellent SERS properties. Serving as SERS substrates, they are extremely sensitive to the detection of 4-mercaptophenol and 4-mercaptobenzoic acid, with an enhancement factor of 108. Moreover, they could be utilized to detect analytes such as pesticide thiram at a low concentration of 10-8 mol/L, and the substrates retain excellent Raman signals stability during the durability test of 60 days. Furthermore, the as-fabricated substrates, as a versatile SERS platform, could be used to detect bacteria of Staphylococcus aureus without a specific and complicated bacteria-aptamer conjugation procedure, and the detection limit is up to 103 colony forming units/mL. Meanwhile, the substrates also show an excellent repeatability of SERS response for S. aureus organelles. Briefly, the prime novelty of this work is the fabrication of Au/Ag bimetallic synergetic enhancement substrates as SERS platform for versatile detection with high sensitivity and stability.

Abstract
Poly(tetrafluoroethylene) (PTFE) porous substrate-reinforced composite membranes for energy conversion technologies are prepared and characterized. In particular, we develop a new hydrophilic treatment method by in-situ biomimetic silicification for PTFE substrates having high porosity (60–80%) since it is difficult to impregnate ionomer into strongly hydrophobic PTFE porous substrates for the preparation of composite membranes. The thinner substrate having ~5 μm treated by the gallic acid/(3-trimethoxysilylpropyl)diethylenetriamine solution with the incubation time of 30 min shows the best hydrophilic treatment result in terms of contact angle. In addition, the composite membranes using the porous substrates show the highest proton conductivity and the lowest water uptake and swelling ratio. Membrane-electrode assemblies (MEAs) using the composite membranes (thinner and lower proton conductivity) and Nafion 212 (thicker and higher proton conductivity), which have similar areal resistance, are compared in I–V polarization curves. The I–V polarization curves of two MEAs in activation and Ohmic region are very identical. However, higher mass transport limitation is observed for Nafion 212 since the composite membrane with less thickness than Nafion 212 would result in higher back diffusion of water and mitigate cathode flooding.

Abstract
In this work, the poly(vinylidene fluoride) (PVDF) hollow fiber membranes with switchable pore size were fabricated by melt-spinning and stretching (MS-S) process based on a completely green and sustainable route. The membrane preparation process and pore formation mechanism were discussed and investigated in detail. Meanwhile, the effect of stretching ratio on the membrane structure and property was studied based on scanning electron microscopy (SEM), pore size distribution, N2 flux, pure water flux, mechanical property and so on. The prepared membranes with different stretching ratios exhibited excellent tensile strength in the range from 23.0 to 62.6 MPa. The mean pore size of the prepared membranes with stretching 100 % (M-100) was about 0.317 μm, which showed a high dye rejection (<93.9 %) for Direct Black 19. Specifically, there were not any organic solvent and low-molecular-weight diluent used during the preparation process. The recycled PEO and water were obtained after treating the wastewater by membrane filtration. In addition, the recycled PEO could be reused as pore forming agent, which could achieve completely green and sustainable membrane preparation process.

Abstract
Cleaning of wastewater for the environment is an emerging issue for the living organism. The separation of oily wastewater, especially emulsified mixtures, is quite challenged due to a large amount of wastewater produced in daily life. In this review, the membrane technology for oily wastewater treatment is presented. In the first part, the global membrane market, the oil spill accidents and their results are discussed. In the second and third parts, the source of oily wastewater and conventional treatment methods are represented. Among all methods, membrane technology is considered the most efficient method in terms of high separation performance and easy to operation process. In the fourth part, we provide an overview of membrane technology, fouling problem, and how to improve the self-cleaning surface using functional groups for effectively treating oily wastewater. The recent development of surface-modified membranes for oily wastewater separation is investigated. It is believed that this review will promote understanding of membrane technology and the development of surface modification strategies for anti-fouling membranes.

Abstract
Osmotic power generation has emerged as an advanced technology toward water-energy nexus to tackle global water pollution. It provides a sustainable use of salinity gradient from water resources yet encounters major obstacles caused by pressure-retarded osmosis (PRO) membrane fouling. Although membranes with good antifouling properties are widely studied, their antifouling functions are readily lost when scratches or detachments occur through physical damage during operation and chemical degradation by water and corrosive foulants. Consequently, it is important to develop antifouling membranes with autonomous self-healing capabilities. Herein, self-healable functionalized poly(ether sulfone) (PES) antifouling membranes have been fabricated via the sequential conjugation of the zwitterionic random copolymer [poly(1-(1-(1-adamantylcarbonyloxy)methyl)-3-vinylimidazolium bromide-co-1-(3-sulfopropyl)-3-vinylimidazolium-co-vinylamine)] (P(ADVI-co-SBVI-co-VA), abbreviated as PASV copolymer) and linear cyclodextrin polymer (LPCD) on polydopamine-preactivated PES supports. The self-healing behaviors rely on the judiciously designed "button-and-buttonhole" supramolecular network. Specifically, β-cyclodextrins in LPCD and adamantines in PASV act as "buttonholes" and "buttons", respectively. Under physical and chemical damages, the β-cyclodextrin "buttonhole" may sacrificially detach from the adamantine "button" of PASV but then recap another adamantine to restore the protective function. The antifouling and self-healing traits of as-functionalized PES-g-PASV-LPCD membranes were demonstrated by the superior antiprotein behaviors and improved antimicrobial performances on both nonaged and aged samples. In the PRO process, the modified membranes were effective in mitigating organic fouling and exhibited higher power density (79% of the initial value) than the nonmodified ones (47% of the initial value) in municipal wastewater testing. The strategy for engineering inherently healable and antifouling membranes paves a new pathway for the development of sustainable membranes for osmotic power production.

Abstract
The efficient treatment of oil-water emulsions in extreme environments, such as strongly acidic and alkaline media, remains a widespread concern. Poly(phenylene sulfide) (PPS)-based porous membranes with excellent resistance to chemicals and solvents are promising for settling this challenge. However, the limited hydrophilicity and the poor hydrated ability of the hydrophilic PPS (h-PPS) membranes reported in the literature prevents them from separating oil-water emulsions with high efficiency, large fluxes, and good antifouling performances. In this study, a firm rough TiO2 layer is constructed on a h-PPS membrane via electrostatic assembly to improve the surface hydrophilization. The introduction of the TiO2 layer increases the wetting selectivity and decreases the oil adhesion, which makes it capable to efficiently treat oil-in-water emulsions (efficiency > 98%). Most importantly, the underwater critical oil intrusion pressure almost doubled after the incorporation of the TiO2 layer, which allows the membrane to withstand pressurized filtration, achieving a high flux of ∼4000 L m-2 h-1. This is more than 2 orders of magnitude larger than the flux of the reported h-PPS. Furthermore, the TiO2@h-PPS membrane displays long-term stability in separating oil-water emulsions in strong acid and strong alkali, showing a promising prospect for the treatment of strongly corrosive emulsions.

Abstract
Exploitation of a versatile strategy for fabricating a plant protein adhesive with outstanding adhesion and water resistance is a growing concern in the ecofriendly wood industry. Herein, a core-shell nanohybrid elastomer composed of the cellulose nanocrystal (CNC) core and elastic polyurethane shell is prepared via a co-deposition strategy and then used as an efficient reinforcer to improve the performances of soy protein (SP) adhesive. It is found that the core-shell nanohybrid acts as a multiple cross-linker, giving rise to the construction of a stable protein adhesive system. Moreover, owing to the nanohybrid design combining "strong yet tough" qualities, the hard CNC serves to repair the discontinuous protein adhesion layer for a rigid and integrated system, while the elastic polyurethane contributes to energy dissipation, thus endowing the protein adhesive with excellent overall cohesive strength. Given such synergistic effects, the modified SP-based adhesive exhibits a significant improvement in both adhesion and water resistance, particularly achieving a 311.8% increase in wet adhesion strength compared to that of the pristine SP adhesive. This work may provide an effective guide for the preparation and practical application of high-performance plant-protein-based adhesive.

Abstract
Abstract
The present study used modified nanofiltration (NF) membranes to remove the emerging contaminant of amoxicillin (AMX) from synthetic wastewater. For this purpose, Merpol surfactant and polyvinylpyrrolidone were added to the casting solutions to prepare flat sheet asymmetric polyethersulfone (PES) NF membranes through phase inversion process. Then, the effect of adding Merpol surfactant at different concentrations on the morphology, hydrophilicity, and pure water flux (PWF) of the membranes, as well as the separation of AMX from aqueous solutions was investigated. The characteristics of the prepared membranes were studied by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM), contact angle (CA) measurement and performance tests. The obtained results approved the improved hydrophilicity of the PES membranes after adding Merpol surfactant to the casting solution. The findings also revealed a gradual increase in the average size of the membrane pores in sub-layer and thinner top layer, proportional to the increase of surfactant content in the solution. The results also confirmed the increase of PWF under the influence of surfactant increase. As a result, for the membrane containing 8 wt% Merpol additive, the lowest CA (52.08°), the highest PWF (76.31 L/m2 h), and maximum AMX excretion (97%) were achieved.

Abstract
Microenvironment plays a significant role in enzymatic catalysis, which directly influences enzyme activity and stability. It is important to regulate the enzyme microenvironment, especially for the liquid with unfavored properties (e.g., pH and dissolved oxygen). In this work, we propose a methodology that can regulate pH and substrate concentration for enzymatic catalysis by a biocatalytic membrane, which is composed of glucose oxidase (GOx) and horseradish peroxidase (HRP) co-immobilized in a polyamide nanofiltration (NF) membrane (i.e., beneath the separation layer). By virtue of the selective separation function of NF membrane and in situ production of organic acid/electron donor with GOx, a synergism effect of separation and reaction in the liquid/solid interface was manipulated for engineering the microenvironment of HRP to enhance its activity and stability for micropollutant removal in water. The outcome of this work not only provides a new methodology to precisely control enzymatic reaction but also offers a smart membrane system to efficiently and steadily remove the micropollutants in portable water.
