Sandwich-structured COF membranes for efficient transmembrane Na+/Cl− permselectivity of reverse electrodialysis
This study made the first attempt to investigate a complete transport of cations and anions from a high-concentration reservoir to the bilateral low-concentration reservoirs respectively through the sandwich-structured covalent organic framework (COF) membranes (III-COF-CEM and III-COF-AEM) via molecular dynamics simulations for the reverse electrodialysis (RED) technology. The III-COF-CEM and III-COF-AEM were constructed with a negatively-charged and a positively-charged COF interlayers, respectively, which produced the effective pore sizes within the range of 5.6–7.5 Å and 7.7–9.6 Å, respectively. The membranes demonstrated remarkable Na+/Cl− selectivity of 94.7 and Cl−/Na+ selectivity of 92.1 via synergistic size exclusion and electrostatic interactions. The sandwich-structured COF membranes could realize an excellent Na+/Cl− permselective transport, achieving an estimated output power density (97.6 W·m−2) potentially surpassing the benchmark of commercial membranes. This work provides a valuable insight into the development of high-performance membranes for efficient osmotic energy harvesting.
