  • Carbon nanotube membranes with ultrahigh specific Adsorption Capacity for water desalination and purification
    Nature Communications, 2013
    Co-Authors: Hui Ying Yang, Kin Leong Pey, Siu Fung Yu, Zhao Jun Han, Kostya Ostrikov, Rohit Karnik
    Abstract:

    Development of technologies for water desalination and purification is critical to meet the global challenges of insufficient water supply and inadequate sanitation, especially for point-of-use applications. Conventional desalination methods are energy and operationally intensive, whereas Adsorption-based techniques are simple and easy to use for point-of-use water purification, yet their Capacity to remove salts is limited. Here we report that plasma-modified ultralong carbon nanotubes exhibit ultrahigh specific Adsorption Capacity for salt (exceeding 400% by weight) that is two orders of magnitude higher than that found in the current state-of-the-art activated carbon-based water treatment systems. We exploit this Adsorption Capacity in ultralong carbon nanotube-based membranes that can remove salt, as well as organic and metal contaminants. These ultralong carbon nanotube-based membranes may lead to next-generation rechargeable, point-of-use potable water purification appliances with superior desalination, disinfection and filtration properties.
