Abstract

In this project, the Titanium dioxide nanowire (TiO2Nw) and layered double hydroxide (LDH) were introduced into the reduced graphene oxide (RGO) to make a composite material and then were assembled on the cellulose acetate (CA) membrane into photocatalytic composite membrane (RLT) through vacuum filtration with photocatalytic effect. The photocatalytic composite membrane (RLT) with high permeability and high rejection was constructed. Compared with other ratios of RLT membranes, RLT-0.5 composite membrane had a higher water flux of 432.38 L·m−2h−1bar−1, and the rejection rate of dye were above 99%. In the rejection process of 10 cycles, that the rejection rate and flux of RLT-0.5 composite membrane to methylene blue (MB), malachite green (Mg) and Congo red (CR) were more stable regardless of whether there was light or no light. Of course, the rejection effect was better under light conditions, showing its excellent photocatalytic performance. In conclusion, RLT-0.5 composite membrane had excellent water purification ability and photocatalytic efficiency, which made it have a wide application in water treatment.
