Zhang R, Yang J, Tian J, Zhu J, Van der Bruggen B. Synergistic interfacial polymerization between hydramine/diamine and trimesoyl chloride: A novel reaction for NF membrane preparation. WATER RESEARCH 2024; 257:121745. [PMID: 38733965 DOI: 10.1016/j.watres.2024.121745] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/21/2024] [Revised: 04/10/2024] [Accepted: 05/06/2024] [Indexed: 05/13/2024]
Abstract
Polyester-amide (PEA) thin film composite (TFC) NF membranes have rapidly evolved towards a competitive performance, benefiting from their remarkable antifouling capability and superior chlorine resistance. In this report, a new concept of synergistic interfacial polymerization is explored, which promptly triggers the reaction between hydramines and trimesoyl chloride (TMC) in the presence of a trace amount of diamines. This rapid-start mode enables the formation of defect-free PEA films without the requirement of catalysis. A comprehensive characterization of physicochemical properties using high-resolution mass spectrometer (HRMS) reveals that the recombination and formation of a "hydramine-diamine" coupling unit plays a decisive role in activating the synergistic interfacial polymerization reaction with TMC molecules. Taking the pair of serinol and piperazine (PIP) as an example, the PEA-NF membrane fabricated with 0.1 w/v% serinol mixed with 0.04 w/v% PIP as water-soluble monomer and 0.1 w/v% TMC as oil phase monomer was found to have a pure water permeability (PWP) of 18.5 L·m-2·h-1·bar-1 and a MgSO4 rejection of 95.5 %, which surpasses almost all the reported PEA NF membranes. Findings of the current research provide more possibilities for the low-cost and rapid synthesis of high-performance PEA membranes aiming for water purification.

Emerging environmentally friendly bio-based nanocomposites for the efficient removal of dyes and micropollutants from wastewater by adsorption: a comprehensive review. RSC Adv 2024; 14:2804-2834. [PMID: 38234871 PMCID: PMC10792434 DOI: 10.1039/d3ra06501d] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/23/2023] [Accepted: 12/19/2023] [Indexed: 01/19/2024] Open
Abstract
Water scarcity will worsen due to population growth, urbanization, and climate change. Addressing this issue requires developing energy-efficient and cost-effective water purification technologies. One approach is to use biomass to make bio-based materials (BBMs) with valuable attributes. This aligns with the goal of environmental conservation and waste management. Furthermore, the use of biomass is advantageous because it is readily available, economical, and has minimal secondary environmental impact. Biomass materials are ideal for water purification because they are abundant and contain important functional groups like hydroxyl, carboxyl, and amino groups. Functional groups are important for modifying and absorbing contaminants in water. Single-sourced biomass has limitations such as weak mechanical strength, limited adsorption capacity, and chemical instability. Investing in research and development is crucial for the development of efficient methods to produce BBMs and establish suitable water purification application models. This review covers BBM production, modification, functionalization, and their applications in wastewater treatment. These applications include oil-water separation, membrane filtration, micropollutant removal, and organic pollutant elimination. This review explores the production processes and properties of BBMs from biopolymers, highlighting their potential for water treatment applications. Furthermore, this review discusses the future prospects and challenges of developing BBMs for water treatment and usage. Finally, this review highlights the importance of BBMs in solving water purification challenges and encourages innovative solutions in this field.

Abstract
Because of easy functionalization, low cost, and large-scale fabrication, pure organic fluorescent polymers are widely applied in light-emitting display, bio-fluorescence-enhanced imaging, explosive detection, and other fields. Among these applications, due to their unique optical rotation characteristics, chiral fluorescent polymer materials are part of fluorescent polymers which could be used in chiral molecular detection and separation, biological target detection, etc. In this work, we designed and synthesized the first chiral organic fluorescent polysulfate materials through sulfur fluoride exchange polymerization (new click chemistry) by asymmetric binaphthol molecular. The chiral fluorescent polysulfate were synthesized by R/S [1,1′-binaphthalene]-2,2′-diol(Binol.), propane-2,2-diylbis(4,1-phenylene) bis(sulfurofluoridate) (FO2S–BA–SO2F) and 4,4′-(propane-2,2-diyl)diphenol(BA.) through step-by-step polymerization reaction under alkali present. It was found that the local crystallization of pure bisphenol A polysulfate was broken by the asymmetric axial chiral BINOL molecule inserted in it and let the polymer into the amorphous state. Fluorescent chiral molecules are uniformly dispersed in the polymer; the 120 µm film prepared by the film scraper was transparent and had good luminescence characteristics under ultraviolet light. After fluorescence detection, the excitation wavelength is 450 nm, and the emission wavelength is 480 and 517 nm.

Abstract
Membrane technology utilizing ultrafiltration (UF) processes has emerged as the most widely used and cost-effective simple process in many industrial applications. The industries like textiles and petroleum refining are promptly required membrane based UF processes to alleviate the potential environmental threat caused by the generation of various wastewater. At the same time, major limitations such as material selection as well as fouling behavior challenge the overall performance of UF membranes, particularly in wastewater treatment. Therefore, a complete discussion on material design with structural property relation and separation performance of UF membranes is always exciting. This state-of-the-art review has exclusively focused on the development of UF membranes, the material design, properties, progress in separation processes, and critical challenges. So far, most of the review articles have examined the UF membrane processes through a selected track of paving typical materials and their limited applications. In contrast, in this review, we have exclusively aimed at comprehensive research from material selection and fabrication methods to all the possible applications of UF membranes, giving more attention and theoretical understanding to the complete development of high-performance UF systems. We have discussed the methodical engineering behind the development of UF membranes regardless of their materials and fabrication mechanisms. Identifying the utility of UF membrane systems in various applications, as well as their mode of separation processes, has been well discussed. Overall, the current review conveys the knowledge of the present-day significance of UF membranes together with their future prospective opportunities whilst overcoming known difficulties in many potential applications.

Abstract
Fabrication of the ZSM-22/Polyethersulfone (ZSM-22/PES) membranes as selective salt filters represent a growing membrane technological area in separation with the potential of high economic reward based on its low energy requirements. The incorporation of ZSM-22 zeolite material as additives into the PES polymer matrix has the prospective advantage of combining both the zeolite and polymer features while overcoming the limitations associated with both materials. This work investigated the influence of the nature of the silica precursor on ZSM-22 zeolite hydrothermally synthesised using colloidal (C60) and fumed (C60) silica to Si/Al of 60. The successful synthesis of the highly crystalline zeolitic materials was confirmed through XRD, FTIR, and SEM with EDX. The ZSM-22 additives were directly dispersed into a PES polymeric matrix to form a casting solution for the preparation of the ZSM-22/PES selective substrate layers via a phase inversion method for salts rejection. The polymeric PES was selected as an organic network in which the content of the ZSM-22 zeolite (ranging between 0 and 1.0 wt.%), was obtained and characterised by XRD, FTIR, and SEM analysis, as well as water contact angle (WCA) measurement and dead-end filtration cell. The phase inversion preparation method has induced the resulting ZSM-22/PES NF substrates anisotropy, as attributed to a high water flux to the above 700 L·m−2·h−1; high selectivity and rejection of salts to above 80% is revealed by the obtained results. The materials also exhibited improved antifouling behavior to above 70% flux recovery ratios. As such, the nature of the silica precursor influences ZSM-22 zeolite synthesis as a potential additive in the PES polymer matrix and led to the enhanced performance of the pure PES ultrafiltration membrane.
