Abstract

Graphene-based materials can be potentially utilized for separation membranes due to their unique structural properties such as precise molecular sieving by interlayer spacing or pore structure and excellent stability in harsh environmental conditions. Therefore, graphene-based membranes have been extensively demonstrated for various water treatment applications, including desalination, water extraction, and rare metal ion recovery. While most of the utilization has still been limited to the laboratory scale, emerging studies have dealt with scalable approaches to show commercial feasibility. This review summarizes the recent studies on diverse graphene membrane fabrications and their environmental applications related to water-containing conditions in addition to the molecular separation mechanism and critical factors related to graphene membrane performance. Additionally, we discuss future perspectives and challenges to provide insights into the practical applications of graphene-based membranes on the industrial scale.

石墨烯膜在水环境中的应用综述与展望

石墨烯基材料由于其独特的结构特性，如通过层间距或孔结构进行精确的分子筛选，以及在恶劣环境条件下的优异稳定性，可以潜在地用于分离膜。因此，石墨烯基膜已广泛用于各种水处理应用，包括海水淡化、水提取和稀有金属离子回收。虽然大多数的利用仍然局限于实验室规模，但新兴的研究已经处理了可扩展的方法，以显示商业可行性。本文综述了近年来各种石墨烯膜的制备及其在含水条件下的环境应用研究，以及与石墨烯膜性能相关的分子分离机制和关键因素。此外，我们讨论了未来的前景和挑战，以提供对石墨烯基膜在工业规模上的实际应用的见解。
