Summary: | Membrane separation technology offers a sustainable and efficient solution to wastewater management; however, membrane fouling significantly impedes its application. Photocatalytic membranes, integrating photocatalytic and membrane separation technologies, enhance membrane separation efficacy while effectively mitigating organic and biological contaminations. In this work, Ag
S/PANI@PES composite membranes were prepared via a facile in situ polymerization and successive layer adsorption technique. The modified poly(ether sulfone) (PES) membrane demonstrated improved hydrophilicity and separation performance, and its heterostructure between polyaniline (PANI), Ag
, and Ag
S effectively addressed organic fouling issues. Moreover, Ag
S/PANI@PES exhibited outstanding antimicrobial properties, as well as chemical and mechanical stability. |
