چکیده

We computationally demonstrate that two-dimensional covalent triazine frameworks (CTFs) provide opportunities in water desalination. By varying the chemical building blocks, the pore structure, chemistry, and membrane performance can be designed, leading to two orders of magnitude higher water permeability than polyamide membranes while maintaining excellent ability to reject salts.

Atomistic understandings of reduced graphene oxide as an ultrathin-film nanoporous membrane for separations

The intrinsic defects in reduced graphene oxide (rGO) formed during reduction processes can act as nanopores, making rGO a promising ultrathin-film membrane candidate for separations. To assess the potential of rGO for such applications, molecular dynamics techniques are employed to understand the defect formation in rGO and their separation performance in water desalination and natural gas pur...

Ultrathin Two-dimensional MXene Membrane for Pervaporation Desalination

As a new family of two-dimensional (2D) materials, MXene, with many attractive physicochemical properties, has attracted increasing attentions and been applied for various applications. Here, for the first time, ultrathin MXene membranes with thickness down to several tens of nanometers were developed for pervaporation desalination by stacking synthesized atomic-thin MXene nanosheets. Influence...

A Facile Approach of Thin Film Coating Consisted of Hydrophobic Titanium Dioxide over Polypropylene Membrane for Membrane Distillation

In this work, the hydrophobic modification of TiO2 nanoparticles (HTiO2) was carried out by reacting with dodecylphosphonic acid (DDPA) and hexylamine solution. A facile approach of the self-assembly technique was used for the coating of hydrophobic HTiO2 layer over the microporous polypropylene (PP) membrane. The self-assembled layer was formed between the interface of trimesoyl chloride (TMC)...

Nanoporous organosilica membrane for water desalination.

Nanoporous organosilica membranes are successfully coated on porous alumina tubes and tested for desalination via membrane distillation. The membranes produced pure water (up to 13 kg m(-2) h(-1)) across an extreme range of salt concentrations (10-150 g L(-1) NaCl) at moderate temperatures (≤60 °C) without exhibiting the characteristic flux decay of competing materials.

Cost effective synthesis and characterization of nanoporous graphene oxide membrane

Nanoporous grapheme-based materials have been widely recognized as an emerging and promising membrane material or selective layer of membranes to be used in separation [1] and purification applications [2, 3]. For instance, a pioneered modeling work reported by Cohen-Tanugi and Grossman [4, 5] shows that a graphene sheet with subnanometer pores can provide superior water transport rate and high...
