Abstract

To improve the water flux and stability of GO membrane, GO/NaY/Nylon membrane was prepared, in which zeolite were used to increase the layer spacing of GO nanosheets. And the interfacial polymerization of piperazine (PIP) and trimesoyl chloride (TMC) was employed to improve the stability of membrane. The GO/NaY/Nylon membrane with high content of nanoparticles was first used for antibiotic adsorption. The static thermodynamics, kinetics and isotherm for ciprofloxacin (CIP) were studied. The adsorption mechanism on CIP is chemisorption, conforming to the pseudo-second-order model and Langmuir model, and as the equilibrium concentration (ce) increases, the maximum adsorption capacity of GO/NaY/Nylon membrane first increases rapidly, then reaches a plateau, with a maximum adsorption capacity of 49.2 mg·g−1 at 328 K (ce:45.1 mg·L-1). The GO/NaY/Nylon membrane showed higher water flux and stability than the GO membranes, indicating great promising in removing CIP from aqueous solution.
