Membrane Based Water Treatment: Insight from Molecular Dynamics Simulations

Sima Majidi et al.

Summary: The global demand for clean and potable water is increasing due to population growth and pollution. Water contamination is a global problem that needs to be investigated for proper strategies to improve water quality and reduce water scarcity. Membrane technologies for water purification show promising results. This review discusses the use of molecular dynamics (MD) simulations to evaluate the performance of membrane-based water purification systems. The article also provides insights into recent developments and limitations of MD simulations in wastewater treatment using membranes.

Molecular size-dependent subcontinuum solvent permeation and ultrafast nanofiltration across nanoporous graphene membranes

Chi Cheng et al.

Summary: This study investigates molecular transport in various organic liquids under subnanometre confinement using a chemically robust nanoporous graphene membrane. The results demonstrate that the nature of the solvent can modulate solute diffusion across graphene nanopores, leading to breakdown of continuum flow when pore size approaches the solvent's smallest molecular cross-section. The research highlights the potential of nanoporous graphene as a rich materials system for controlling subcontinuum flow and enabling new membranes for challenging separation needs.
