What is An Efficient and Simple Strategy for Fabricating a Polypyrrole Decorated Ceramic-polymeric Porous Membrane for Purification of a Variety of Oily Wastewater Streams about?
A ceramic-polymeric membrane was fabricated through in-situ oxidative polymerization of pyrrole (Py) on alumina (Al2O3) ceramic ultrafiltration support. The establishment of polypyrrole (PPy) active layer on the ceramic support led to a new PPy coated ceramic-polymeric membrane. Various salient features such as surface wettability, surface morphology, composition and functional goups of PPy coated ceramic-polymeric membrane were determined by various characterization techniques water contact angle (WCA), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), energy dispersive x-ray (EDX) analysis and attenuated total reflectance fourier transform infrared (ATR-FTIR). The PPy coated ceramic-polymeric membrane showed superhydrophilic nature owing to its under water oil contact angle of ≥160° (superoleophobic). Thanks to stable deposition of PPy active layer on ceramic support, the membrane retained a separation efficiency of >99% for O/W emulsions at varied transmembrane pressures ranging from 0.5 bar to 2 bar with a feed concentration of 125 ppm of oil in water. Moreover, the PPy coated ceramic-polymeric membrane exhibited an ideal behaviour to the applied transmembrane pressure with a linear increase
