How to quickly and efficiently treat oil spills and purify oily wastewater has become an important issue related to people’s life, economic development and environmental safety. Recently, a paper entitled “Highly Durable Ag-CuO Heterostructure-Decorated Mesh for Efficient Oil/Water Separation” was published in Energy & Environmental Materials. In this work, a Ag-CuO heterostructure-decorated mesh was fabricated via facile alkali etching-calcination and photoreduction approaches. The as-synthesized mesh with superhydrophilicity and underwater superoleophobicity displayed high separation efficiency (>99.998%) for diverse oil/water mixtures. Besides, it demonstrated more superior photocatalytic performance in dye degradation than those of bare CuO nanostructure-coated materials, which is primarily attributed to the intensive visible light harvesting and efficient electron-holes separation occurred on noble metal-semiconductor heterostructures. Furthermore, on account of the tenacity of Cu substrate as well as enhanced structural stability, this binary composite-decorated mesh exhibited highly reliable durability and robustness after 10 cycles of photocatalytic degradation tests, and even being ultrasonic worn for 30 min. More importantly, our developed mesh was capable of in situ catalytic degrading water-soluble organic dyes during oil/water separation under visible light irradiation. Therefore, such a dexterous and feasible strategy may afford a new route to construct bifunctional and predurable materials for actual sewage purification. https://mmbiz.qpic.cn/sz_mmbiz_p ... png&from=appmsg);">由于水资源稀缺和环境污染危机的威胁不断增长,水净化引起了很多全球关注。难去除和降解困难的不溶性油和有机染料是臭名昭著的污染物。迄今为止,制备超亲水和水下超疏油材料的几种重要方法已被用于从海洋溢油排放的含油废水、原油开采以及工业和生活污水中获取可行的清洁水资源。然而,大多数制造涉及有毒溶剂,抑或是材料结构稳定性差和单一功能,特别是对于染料化合物消除的情况,限制大规模生产和长期应用。
Water purification has attracted a lot of global attention because of the ever-growing threats of water scarcity and environmental pollution crisis. Among them, insoluble oils and organic dyes are notorious contaminants due to the difficulties of removal and degradation. To date, several important methods for preparing superhydrophilic and underwater superoleophobic materials have been adopted to acquire viable clean water resources from oily wastewater discharged by marine oil spill, crude oil exploitation, and industrial and domestic sewage. Nevertheless, most of the fabrications involve noxious solvents, poor structural stability, and single functionality especially for the case of dye compounds elimination, restricting the large-scale production and prolonged application. 铜(Cu)网格,具有低成本,柔韧性和高孔隙度是制造油/水分离材料的理想基材。金属纳米颗粒可以根据表面等离子体共振来促进浅品相互作用效果有助于可见光的延伸吸收范围,且独特的贵金属 - 半导体界面有助于形成肖特基屏障的形成,从而提高光激发电子孔对的分离。本文设计了一种高度耐用的Ag-CuO异质结构(HS) - 致铜网状物,其在一种材料中同时具有油/水分离和光催化染料降解性能。这里,CuO纳米薄膜(NFS)通过碱蚀刻煅烧处理原位生长在Cu网状物基质上,然后进行简单的光电识别方法。Ag纳米材料在插入的CuO NF上的装饰显着增加了Cu网眼的表面粗糙度。将Ag-CuO复合材料的亲水性与分层结构相结合,所得网格具有超亲水性和水下疏水性,因此表现出油/水混合物的优异分离。另外,金属Ag充当表面电子捕获陷阱,其可以捕获来自CuO的传导带的电子并最小化电子孔对的重组,制备的网格表现出更高的光催化性能。此外,由于Cu基底的韧度以及增强的结构稳定性,这种异质结构装饰网格表现出高度可靠的耐久性,即使在超声波磨损30分钟后也是高度可靠的耐久性。更重要的是,在可见光照射下的油/水分离期间,该网状物能够原位降解水溶性染料污染物。 Copper (Cu) meshes, a commonly used material in daily life with advantages of low cost, flexibility and high porosity, are considered as desirable substrates for fabricating oil/water separation materials. Metallic nanoparticles can promote light-matter interactions depending on the surface plasmon resonance effect, which contributes to the extended absorption range of visible light. Furthermore, the unique noble metal-semiconductor interfaces facilitate the formation of Schottky barriers and thus boost the separation of photo-excited electron-hole pairs. In the light of the aforementioned issues, researchers designed a highly durable Ag-CuO heterostructure (HS)-decorated Cu mesh which combined oil/water separation and photocatalytic dye degradation performance in one material. Herein, CuO nanoflakes (NFs) were in situ grown on the Cu mesh substrate via alkali etching-calcination treatments, followed by a facile photoreduction method. The decoration of Ag nanomaterials onto intercalated CuO NFs significantly increased the surface roughness of Cu mesh. Integrating the hydrophilicity of Ag-CuO composites with hierarchical structure, the resultant mesh possessed superhydrophilicity and underwater superoleophobicity, and thus manifested excellent separation of oil/water mixtures. Additionally, metallic Ag acted as surface traps that could capture the electrons from the conduction band of CuO and minimize the recombination of electron-hole pairs. The as-prepared mesh exhibited much higher photocatalytic performance for degrading organic dyes than those of bare CuO nanostructure-coated materials. Furthermore, on account of the tenacity of Cu base as well as enhanced structural stability, this heterostructure-decorated mesh not only exhibited superior cyclability, but also presented highly reliable durability even after being ultrasonic worn for 30 min. More importantly, the developed mesh was capable of in situ degrading water-soluble dye pollutants during oil/water separation under visible light irradiation. 图1.
