Synthesis of reusable and anti-fouling Co-Al-Ce LDHs coated stainless steel mesh for ultrafast oil/water separation and photocatalytic degradation
Applied Clay Science(2023)
摘要
Industrial sewage containing oil and dye has already aroused the concerns of cosmopolites. Nowadays, membrane technology is regarded as the spotlight and highly-efficient treatment for various wastewater from human activities. Massive efforts have been put into newly synthesis of low-cost, eco-friendly, low energy consumption, reusable and robust Co-Al-Ce LDHs coated stainless steel mesh (SSM) for wastewater treatment. The CoAlCe-LDHs SSM was fabricated by facile hydrothermal method successfully. While the pristine SSM didn't exhibit selective wettability with water contact angle (WCA) of 114.5 degrees, the novel CoAlCe-LDHs SSM possessed superhydrophilic and underwater superoleophobic property with underwater oil contact angle (UOCA) of 158.5 degrees. The CoAlCe-LDHs SSM was compatibly applied to the separation of oil/water mixtures with highly separation efficiency above 99.5% and ultrafast water flux of 52.2 L.m(-2).s(-1) under gravity. The easily-fabricated CoAlCe-LDHs SSM was qualified with recyclable, stable and anti-fouling properties, which stayed effective for the separation of oil/water mixtures under at least 30 times recycle and harsh conditions. Moreover, the bifunctional CoAlCe-LDHs SSM also showed excellent photocatalytic activity of dye degradation (with 94.2% degradation of methyl orange solution within 160 min), which can be beneficial to sewage treatment.
