PS membranes were prepared from polymeric blends of PS and PMMA via a phase inversion induced by an immersion precipitation in water coagulation baths. The effects of the casting parameters (e.g., solvent selection, the composition of the coagulation bath) and the type of polystyrene (substituents at the aromatic ring, tacticity) on the morphology and water permeation flux were studied. The findings reveal that modified PS promoting instantaneous demixing with NMP/water systems result in membranes with macrovoids while the addition of 2% of PS-r-PMMA results in membranes with high water fluxes. The membranes morphologies were governed by a trade-off between thermodynamic and kinetic aspects. The antibacterial effect of (aPS)70-co-aPS(I)30/PMMA-based membrane was examined using static and cross-flow systems. These results illustrate the diversity in the design of these PS/PMMA based membranes and highlight the possibility to control the polymer chemistry for tailoring specific morphology, permeation and antibacterial properties for the desired function.

Selective extraction of target ions from aqueous solutions by capacitive deionization (CDI) has gradually become a highly efficient separation technology for water desalination. For the first time, a carbon coated olivine phase iron phosphate (O-FePO4@C) composite was developed by electrochemical delithiation of olivine phase LiFePO4@C composite as a pseudocapacitive electrode to explore the selective desalting behavior towards Na+, Mg2+, and Ca2+ ions. Significantly, this work also offered a new strategy for the recycling of waste lithium iron phosphate batteries, which is killing two birds with one stone. Batch experiments reflected both excellent electrosorption capacity (61.3 mg g-1 for Na+) at 1.2 V and good cycling stability of the O-FePO4@C electrode. Cyclic voltammetry (CV) and X-ray diffraction (XRD) combined with density functional theory (DFT) simulation revealed that the electrosorption mechanism of O-FePO4@C is derived from ion intercalation for Na+ and Mg2+, and electrical double layers (EDLs) adsorption for Ca2+, respectively, which exhibited outstandingly selective sodium(I) electrosorption ability. Combining density of state (DOS) of electrons with spectroscopic analysis revealed that the intercalated ions can impact electron configuration and improve the conductivity of the electrode material. The selective desalination performance of O-FePO4@C was also confirmed by treating natural groundwater samples.
