Abstract
The prevalence of organic micropollutants (OMPs) and their persistence in water supplies have raised serious concerns for drinking water safety and public health. Conventional water treatment technologies, including adsorption and biological treatment, are known to be insufficient in treating OMPs and have demonstrated poor selectivity toward a wide range of OMPs. Pressure-driven membrane filtration has the potential to remove many OMPs detected in water with high selectivity as a membrane's molecular weight cutoff (MWCO), surface charge, and hydrophilicity can be easily tailored to a targeted OMP's size, charge and octanol-water partition coefficient (Kow). Over the past 10 years, polymeric (nano)composite microfiltration (MF), ultrafiltration (UF), and nanofiltration (NF) membranes have been extensively synthesized and studied for their ability to remove OMPs. This review discusses the fate and transport of emerging OMPs in water, an assessment of conventional membrane-based technologies (NF, reverse osmosis (RO), forward osmosis (FO), membrane distillation (MD) and UF membrane-based hybrid processes) for their removal, and a comparison to the state-of-the-art nanoenabled membranes with enhanced selectivity toward specific OMPs in water. Nanoenabled membranes for OMP treatment are further discussed with respect to their permeabilities, enhanced properties, limitations, and future improvements.

Abstract
Thin-film nanocomposite membranes have shown great promise in organic solvent nanofiltration. However, it is challenging to acquire high permeation flux without severe swelling, which might do harm to rejection and long-term stability. In this study, we introduced dopamine-modified mesoporous silica nanoparticles into the polyamide (PA) matrix via interfacial polymerization to fabricate a series of thin-film nanocomposite membranes. By using polyethyleneimine (PEI) as the aqueous monomer, the modified nanoparticles are designed to be cross-linked within the PA network, which allows the penetration of PEI into the mesopores, and therefore, the membranes show better resistance to solvent-induced swelling and pressure-induced densification. More importantly, the mesopores of nanoparticles provide additional fast channels for solvents, resulting in an unusual enhancement of solvent flux under reduced membrane swelling. Along with the permeation flux, the rejection performance of the nanocomposite membranes is simultaneously improved, thanks to the controlled swelling arising from the strong interfacial adhesion. Thin-film nanocomposite membranes with optimal filler concentration exhibit a high isopropanol permeance of 8.47 L m-2 h-1 bar-1 as well as a quite low-molecular-weight cutoff of 281 Da.

Abstract
Polydopamine-modified additives have been thus far widely used in the mixed matrix membranes (MMMs) for gas separation. However, very few reports focus on the polydopamine alone and investigate its contribution to the gas separation performance. Herein, the polydopamine-derived submicrospheres (PDASS) were paired with polymers of intrinsic microporosity (PIM-1) to fabricate high-performance gas separation membranes, through which the effects of PDASS on gas permeability and CO2/N2 separation performance were systematically investigated. The addition of PDASS provides a 1.6-fold enhancement in CO2/N2 selectivity together with acceptable gas permeability as compared to the original polymeric membrane. Such enhanced separation behavior is supposed to stem from the densified membrane microstructure induced by the strong intermolecular interactions between PIM-1 and PDASS (i.e., charge transfer, π-π stacking, and hydrogen bonding). Importantly, the physical aging behavior, as judged by gas permeability, is retarded for PIM/PDASS membranes after 4 months of testing.

Abstract
Marine mussel inspired polydopamine (PDA) has received increased attention due to its good thermal and chemical stability as well as strong adhesion on most materials. In this work, high-performance nanofiltration membranes based on interpenetrating polymer networks (IPN) incorporating PDA and polybenzimidazole (PBI) were developed for organic solvent nanofiltration (OSN). Generally, in order to obtain solvent stability, polymers need to be covalently cross-linked under harsh conditions, which inevitably leads to losses in permeability and mechanical flexibility. Surprisingly, by in situ polymerization of dopamine within a PBI support, excellent solvent resistance and permeance of polar aprotic solvents were obtained without covalent cross-linking of the PBI backbone due to the formation of an IPN. The molecular weight cutoff and permeance of the membranes can be fine-tuned by changing the polymerization time. Robust membrane performance was achieved in conventional and emerging green polar aprotic solvents (PAS) in a wide temperature range covering -10 °C to +100 °C. It was successfully demonstrated that the in situ polymerization of PDA-creating an IPN-can provide a simple and green alternative to covalent cross-linking of membranes. To elucidate the nature of the solvent stability, a detailed analysis was performed that revealed that physical entanglement along with strong secondary interaction synergistically enable solvent resistance with as low as 1-3% PDA content.
