Preparation of full-bio-based nanofiltration membranes

Muhammad Azam Rasool et al.

Summary: Cellulose acetate, glycerol derivatives, and 2-methyltetrahydrofuran were selected as bio-based ingredients for nanofiltration membrane preparation via non-solvent induced phase separation. Membrane performance and morphology were investigated, with the best membranes obtained using diacetin as a solvent and 2-MeTHF as co-solvent. Evaporation step prior to coagulation was found to impact rejection rates, particularly in the case of diacetin and triacetin solvents.

Wettability Switchable Membranes for Separating Both Oil-in-water and water-in-oil emulsions

Xi Zhang et al.

Summary: The study demonstrates the potential of separation membranes with switchable wettability in efficiently treating both oil-in-water and water-in-oil emulsions. By using a simple co-deposition method of tannic acid and diethylenetriamine, commercial polypropylene membranes are endowed with switchable surface wettability that can cyclically translate between hydrophilicity and hydrophobicity through water/ethanol treatments without losing surface wettability. Density functional theory simulations and UV-vis spectra analysis were used to illustrate the chemical mechanism behind this hydrophilicity-hydrophobicity translation.

Toward the Next Generation of Sustainable Membranes from Green Chemistry Principles

Wancen Xie et al.

Summary: Although large-scale membrane technology has been widely implemented for around 40 years, its sustainability is low due to the reliance on nonbiodegradable petroleum-based polymers and hazardous solvents. To improve sustainability, biobased polymers and green solvents should replace traditional materials, while wastewater from membrane fabrication processes should be efficiently treated or recycled before discharge. Integration of artificial intelligence in membrane manufacturing processes can also enhance efficiency.

Experimental and theoretical studies on the formation of pure β-phase polymorphs during fabrication of polyvinylidene fluoride membranes by cyclic carbonate solvents

Norafiqah Ismail et al.

Summary: The use of green solvents for polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) membrane fabrication was investigated in this study. Membranes fabricated in ethylene carbonate (EC) or propylene carbonate (PC) yielded exclusively the beta-phase product, while butylene carbonate (BC) led to a mixture of alpha and beta phase material. The PVDF membrane formed in EC exhibited the highest porosity and pure water permeability, showing promising results in direct contact membrane distillation (DCMD) for permeate flux and salt rejection. These findings suggest that large-scale production of piezoelectric PVDF membranes using green solvents is feasible.
