Abstract
Organic solvent nanofiltration (OSN) is an efficient, low-energy and environmentally friendly phase-free separation process. Obviously, the core of OSN lies in the fabrication of solvent-resistant nanofiltration membranes. Although membrane materials reported in the literature such as 2D membranes, porous organic cages, etc. have the potential for ultra-high performance, polymeric membranes provide key advantages in mass production and processability. Therefore, this review focuses on polymeric materials for OSN. This review summarizes the recent progress of polymeric materials, including emerging and traditional polymeric membranes. Then, a summary of recent progress about strategies developed for perm-selective nanofilms are presented, followed by a brief overview of commercial membrane technology for OSN. Finally, major challenges of OSN and future research directions are presented. Close interaction between the academic research and practical application would help improve greener and more sustainable manufacturing processes.
期刊介绍:
The Chinese Journal of Chemical Engineering (Monthly, started in 1982) is the official journal of the Chemical Industry and Engineering Society of China and published by the Chemical Industry Press Co. Ltd. The aim of the journal is to develop the international exchange of scientific and technical information in the field of chemical engineering. It publishes original research papers that cover the major advancements and achievements in chemical engineering in China as well as some articles from overseas contributors.
The topics of journal include chemical engineering, chemical technology, biochemical engineering, energy and environmental engineering and other relevant fields. Papers are published on the basis of their relevance to theoretical research, practical application or potential uses in the industry as Research Papers, Communications, Reviews and Perspectives. Prominent domestic and overseas chemical experts and scholars have been invited to form an International Advisory Board and the Editorial Committee. It enjoys recognition among Chinese academia and industry as a reliable source of information of what is going on in chemical engineering research, both domestic and abroad.
