Abstract

Realization of fast, efficient and continuous oil–water separation is of great significance for solving the problem of oil pollution. We present here a facile hydrothermal strategy to synthesize a superhydrophilic platanus fruit-like Ni@Ni(OH)2 hierarchical architecture (SI-PFHA). Additionally, superhydrophobic platanus fruit-like Ni@Ni(OH)2 hierarchical architecture (SO-PFHA) is obtained through stearic acid modification of SI-PFHA. Dual-channel separation system is integrated based on two superwetting membranes. Such separation system is competent for continuous light/heavy oil–water separation with high flux and high separation efficiency. Importantly, outstanding durability and reusability make this separation system a promising strategy for practical application in remediation of oily wastewater.
