Abstract
The development of catalytic filtration membrane with high permeability, selectivity and antifouling performance remained challenging. This study fabricated a NH2-MIL-101(Fe)@ cellulose nanofiber (MIL@CNF) membrane. The introduced NH2-MIL-101(Fe) might well-enhance the pore size and smoothness of the membrane surface. The water flux of developed membranes were elevated by 2.56–9.13 times with MOFs incorporation owing to rich porous structure, less transmembrane resistance and increased hydrophilicity. The 30-MIL@CNF (MOFs:CNF = 30 %) had the optimal retention (54.5 %) and oxidization properties (89.5 %) for diclofenac (DCF). The oxidation process effectively inhibited fouling on both surfaces and inside pores due to higher peroxodisulfate (PDS) activation ability. Based on the Extended Derjaguin-Landau-Verwey-Overbeek (XDLVO) theory, 30-MIL@CNF and DCF were more inclined to interact with each other via acid-base interactions. Density functional theory (DFT) results showed that MOFs and DCF tended to be hydrogen bonded. Composite membrane predominantly achieved DCF degradation through non-radical pathways (1O2 and direct electron transfer). High mineralization efficiency (74.95 %) from TOC results indicated excellent catalytic oxidation performance. The sustainable membrane with both filtration and advanced oxidation functionalities may provide underlying insights for the development of green catalytic filtration system.
期刊介绍:
Separation and Purification Technology is a premier journal committed to sharing innovative methods for separation and purification in chemical and environmental engineering, encompassing both homogeneous solutions and heterogeneous mixtures. Our scope includes the separation and/or purification of liquids, vapors, and gases, as well as carbon capture and separation techniques. However, it's important to note that methods solely intended for analytical purposes are not within the scope of the journal. Additionally, disciplines such as soil science, polymer science, and metallurgy fall outside the purview of Separation and Purification Technology. Join us in advancing the field of separation and purification methods for sustainable solutions in chemical and environmental engineering.
