Abstract
Membrane technology, through innovative approaches such as nanocomposite membranes, membrane bioreactors, and electrocatalytic membrane reactors, offers a synergistic platform for pathogen removal. This review examines recent advancements in membrane modifications aimed at optimizing virus removal efficiency. It outlines various mechanisms employed in these innovations, including size exclusion, electronic interactions, hydrophobic and hydrophilic interactions, and pathogen inactivation. By systematically discussing the modifications and the intrinsic properties of viruses that affect their interactions with these membranes, the review highlights the potential of advanced functional materials tailored to specific membrane processes. Emphasis is placed on the necessity of adjusting membrane pore sizes and enhancing other physical and chemical properties (e.g., electrochemical oxidation performance) to improve efficacy. Overall, this review comprehensively assesses various membrane technologies, comparing their effectiveness and providing theoretical insights and practical guidance on utilizing membrane modifications to safeguard water against viral contaminants.
期刊介绍：
Science has many big remaining questions. To address them, we will need to work collaboratively and across disciplines. The goal of iScience is to help fuel that type of interdisciplinary thinking. iScience is a new open-access journal from Cell Press that provides a platform for original research in the life, physical, and earth sciences. The primary criterion for publication in iScience is a significant contribution to a relevant field combined with robust results and underlying methodology. The advances appearing in iScience include both fundamental and applied investigations across this interdisciplinary range of topic areas. To support transparency in scientific investigation, we are happy to consider replication studies and papers that describe negative results.
We know you want your work to be published quickly and to be widely visible within your community and beyond. With the strong international reputation of Cell Press behind it, publication in iScience will help your work garner the attention and recognition it merits. Like all Cell Press journals, iScience prioritizes rapid publication. Our editorial team pays special attention to high-quality author service and to efficient, clear-cut decisions based on the information available within the manuscript. iScience taps into the expertise across Cell Press journals and selected partners to inform our editorial decisions and help publish your science in a timely and seamless way.
