The contamination of water resources is a significant environmental challenge. The creation of innovative technologies to address this challenge is of paramount significance. Nanomaterials within polymeric membranes have surfaced as a hopeful technology within the realm of water purification, offering solutions to crucial issues concerning the elimination of pollutants and pathogens from water supplies. The exceptional properties of nanomaterials within polymeric membranes, including their high surface area, tunable pore sizes, and selective permeability, have enabled significant progress in the effective removal of various contaminants from water. This is due to the integration of nanoscale materials, such as metal nanoparticles, nanofibers, graphene, and graphene oxide, which has further enhanced the membrane performance by introducing enhanced mechanical strength, improved separation efficiency, and increased adsorption capacities. Recent research has focused on tailoring nanomaterials within polymeric membranes to target specific contaminants, such as viruses, bacteria, heavy metals, organic pollutants, and microplastics. Functionalization techniques, such as surface modification and incorporation of specific functional groups, have been employed to enhance the adsorption and separation capabilities of these membranes. Moreover, innovative fabrication methods, including layer-by-layer assembly, electrospinning, and template-assisted techniques, have been explored to achieve precise control over membrane properties and morphology. This review provides an overview of the current status and advancements in the utilization of nanomaterials within polymeric membranes for water purification applications.

“…Using membrane filtration, wastewater permeates through a porous membrane. Any unwanted particles will be trapped while the filtered solution passes through the membrane, depending on the pore size of the fabricated membrane [70]. Membrane technology is the most applied method for removing dye from wastewater due to its efficient removal performance, space-saving procedure, and low operating cost [71].…”

Methylene blue (MB) is frequently used in the textile, rubber, plastics, leather, pharmaceutical, cosmetic, and food industries. As a colouring and staining agent, MB is reported as one of the most studied dyes involving degradation and photocatalytic activity. Unfortunately, the discharge of waste from the mentioned industries contains residues of dyes, whereby the presence of a very low concentration of dyes can be highly visible. Discharging the waste without suitable treatment can cause many complications for the environment and human health. Due to that reason, the control of dye wastewater has become the most challenging task. Therefore, this review article will be focused on the MB treatment process, especially membrane filtration technology involving a pressure-driven membrane process, which is reported to be the most efficient method to treat MB dye wastewater.

“…In this review, we have cited several filler-polymer combinations where an optimum concentration resulted in best interphase compatibility, properties, and performance, beyond which the performance deteriorated. Hence, it is crucial to manipulate the particles and minimize the colloidal agglomeration through methods such as mechanical agitation (like ultrasonication [ 108 , 109 , 110 , 111 ]), surface modification/functionalization to modify surface zeta potential [ 112 ], optimization of the incorporation procedure [ 113 ], etc.…”

Nanomaterials have been extensively used in polymer nanocomposite membranes due to the inclusion of unique features that enhance water and wastewater treatment performance. Compared to the pristine membranes, the incorporation of nanomodifiers not only improves membrane performance (water permeability, salt rejection, contaminant removal, selectivity), but also the intrinsic properties (hydrophilicity, porosity, antifouling properties, antimicrobial properties, mechanical, thermal, and chemical stability) of these membranes. This review focuses on applications of different types of nanomaterials: zero-dimensional (metal/metal oxide nanoparticles), one-dimensional (carbon nanotubes), two-dimensional (graphene and associated structures), and three-dimensional (zeolites and associated frameworks) nanomaterials combined with polymers towards novel polymeric nanocomposites for water and wastewater treatment applications. This review will show that combinations of nanomaterials and polymers impart enhanced features into the pristine membrane; however, the underlying issues associated with the modification processes and environmental impact of these membranes are less obvious. This review also highlights the utility of computational methods toward understanding the structural and functional properties of the membranes. Here, we highlight the fabrication methods, advantages, challenges, environmental impact, and future scope of these advanced polymeric nanocomposite membrane based systems for water and wastewater treatment applications.
