摘要: Forward osmosis (FO) has received considerable interest for water- and energy-related applications in recent years. FO does not require an applied pressure is believed to have a low fouling tendency. However, major challenge the lack of high performance membranes. In current work, novel nanofiltration (NF)-like membranes with good magnesium chloride retention were synthesized using layer-by-layer (LbL) assembly. The membrane substrate was tailored (high porosity, finger-like pores, thin cross-section, hydrophilicity) achieve small structural parameter 0.5 mm. Increasing number polyelectrolyte layers improved selectivity LbL while reducing their water permeability. more selective 6#LbL (with 6 layers) had much lower reverse solute transport compared 3#LbL 1#LbL. Meanwhile, flux found be strongly affected by both permeability transport. Severe solute...
