Superwetting Porous Materials for Wastewater Treatment: from Immiscible Oil/Water Mixture to Emulsion Separation

Zhang, Weifeng, Liu, Na, Cao, Yingze, Lin, Xin, Liu, Yanan, Feng, Lin·2017·Advanced Materials Interfaces

Abstract

Recently, large quantities of oily wastewater discharged from our daily life and industries have caused serious environmental problems. In addition, frequent oil spill accidents occurred all over the world have also lead to a waste of precious resources. Oil/water separation has become a worldwide challenge for us to overcome. Nowadays, superwetting materials have attracted considerable attention. Among them, porous materials with special wettability are more popular since this kind of materials is easy to fabricate, cost saving and time saving. Moreover, by combining the design of special wettability with the proper pore size, the porous materials could achieve the separation of sundry oil/water mixtures including immiscible oil/water mixtures and stabilized emulsions. In this review, we summarized two types of superwetting porous materials for immiscible oil/water mixtures separation and emulsion separation: water blocking porous materials with superhydrophobic/superoleophilic wettability and oil blocking porous materials with superhydrophilic/underwater superoleophobic wettability. In each type, we introduce the mechanism, fabricating process, effects of oily wastewater treatment and the representative works in detail. Moreover, the smart controllable superwetting porous materials and the wastewater treatment of other pollutants are also introduced briefly.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
