Managing the wastewater discharged from oil and shale gas fields is a big challenge, because this kind of normally polluted by high contents both oils salts. Conventional pressure-driven membranes experience little success for treating either severe membrane fouling or incapability desalination. In study, we designed new nanocomposite forward osmosis (FO) accomplishing simultaneous oil/water separation This FO composed an oil-repelling salt-rejecting hydrogel selective layer on top graphene...
Wastewaters with high concentrations of organic pollutants pose a great challenge for membrane filtration due to their severe fouling propensity. In this study, hydrogel forward osmosis (FO) is explored treating wastewaters concentration pollutants. This FO has an ultrathin selective layer, which highly hydrophilic (water contact angle as low 18°) and smooth (surface roughness <5 nm). Investigated typical foulants (protein, alginate, humic acid, oil) (2000–20 000 mg/L), exhibits remarkably...
Surfactant stabilized oil-in-water nanoemulsions pose a severe threat to both the environment and human health. Recent development of membrane filtration technology has enabled efficient oil removal from oil/water nanoemulsion, however, concurrent surfactant remains unsolved because existing membranes still suffer low rate serious surfactant-induced fouling issue. In this study, realize novel hierarchically-structured is designed with nanostructured selective layer on top microstructured...
A novel three-dimensional interconnected porous architecture is successfully constructed from a GO-polymer composite and used as an FO membrane support layer.
To address the worldwide oil and water separation issue, a novel approach was inspired by natural phenomena to synthesize superhydrophilic underwater superoleophobic organic/inorganic nanofibrous membranes via scale up fabrication approach. The synthesized possess delicate organic core of PVDF-HFP an inorganic shell CuO nanosheet structure, which endows super-flexible properties owing merits backbones, functions contributed extremely rough surface anchored on flexible PVDF-HFP. Such...
Abstract Advances in microfluidic technology towards flexibility, transparency, functionality, wearability, scale reduction or complexity enhancement are currently limited by choices materials and assembly methods. Organized microfibrillation is a method for optically printing well-defined porosity into thin polymer films with ultrahigh resolution. Here we demonstrate this to create self-enclosed devices few simple steps, number of flexible transparent formats. Structural colour, property...
Next-generation carbon capture, utilization, and storage (CCUS) technologies will be indispensable elements of global decarbonization efforts. In this context, permanent rapid sequestration dioxide (CO2) at high capacities impact their utility broadly. CO2 mineralization into solid inorganic carbonates is an appealing CCUS approach, which requires fast hydration for effective implementation. The carbonic anhydrases (CAs) have, thus, gained considerable attention as rate promoters hydration....
Graphene oxide-fullerene nanocomposite laminates achieved excellent gas permeation and selectivity for hydrogen purification.
To achieve sustainable and energy‐efficient CO 2 capture processes, it is imperative to develop membranes that possess both high permeability selectivity. One promising approach involves integrating high‐aspect‐ratio nanoscale fillers into polymer matrices. The increase surface area improve interactions between chains gas molecules passing through the membrane. This study focuses on integration of cellulose nanocrystals (CNCs) with an impressive aspect ratio around 12 rubbery polymers...
