Research progress in oil-water separation nanofiber membranes based on electrospinning technology
The paper introduced the advantages of a combination of the membrane separation technology and electrospin-ning technology in the field of oil-water separation and reviewed the latest research progress in the hydrophobic electros-pinning oil-water separation membranes,hydrophilic electrospinning oil-water separation membranes,and intelligent electrospinning oil-water separation membranes based on the classification of oil-water separation nanofiber membranes.A detailed introduction about the methods was provided for improving the oil-water separation performance of nanofiber membranes,including the modification by adding nanoparticles and preparation of multilayer nanofiber membranes.Fi-nally,the future focus in the field of oil-water separation was proposed for the development of environmentally friendly nanofiber membranes with abilities for both oil-water separation and functions such as antibacterial properties and removal of heavy metal ion.
