Abstract
Monovalent anion perm-selective membranes (MAPMs) were fabricated from poly (alkyl-biphenyl pyridine) backbone via Menshutkin reaction and in-situ thermal crosslinking. Compared to the commercial ACS membrane (Cl− flux of 2.44 mol m−2 h−1, selectivity of 5.55), the optimum MAPM exhibited superior Cl− ions flux of 2.78 mol m−2 h−1 and Cl−/SO42− selectivity of 10.5 at current density of 10 mA cm−2. Additionally, the optimum MAPM was successfully scaled up and comprehensively evaluated, demonstrating exceptional ion separation performance and operational stability. Notably, in the ion-distillation process, the scale-up membrane displayed an extremely high separation coefficient of Cl−/SO42− over 15,000. The membrane shows promise for practical applications in treating high salt wastewater and desalination processes requiring Cl−/SO42− separation.
