Abstract:
Photocatalytic membrane reactors (PMR), with immobilized photocatalysts, play an important role in process intensification strategies; this approach offers a simple solution to the typical catalyst recovery problem of photocatalytic processes and, by simultaneous filtration and photocatalysis of the aqueous streams, facilitates clean water production in a single unit. The synthesis of polymer photocatalytic membranes has been widely explored, while studies focused on ceramic photocatalytic membranes represent a minority. However, previous reports have identified that the successful synthesis of polymeric photocatalytic membranes still faces certain challenges that demand further research, e.g., (i) reduced photocatalytic activity, (ii) photocatalyst stability, and (iii) membrane aging, to achieve technological competitiveness with respect to suspended photocatalytic systems. The novelty of this review is to go a step further to preceding literature by first, critically analyzing the factors behind these major limitations and second, establishing useful guidelines. This information will help researchers in the field in the selection of the membrane materials and synthesis methodology for a better performance of polymeric photocatalytic membranes with targeted functionality; special attention is focused on factors affecting membrane aging and photocatalyst stability.

Abstract:
The present work gives a critical overview of the recent progresses and new perspectives in the field of photocatalytic membranes (PMs) in photocatalytic membrane reactors (PMRs), thus highlighting the main advantages and the still existing limitations for large scale applications in the perspective of a sustainable growth. The classification of the PMRs is mainly based on the location of the photocatalyst with respect to the membranes and distinguished in: (i) PMRs with photocatalyst solubilized or suspended in solution and (ii) PMRs with photocatalyst immobilized in/on a membrane (i.e., a PM). The main factors affecting the two types of PMRs are deeply discussed. A multidisciplinary approach for the progress of research in PMs and PMRs is presented starting from selected case studies. A special attention is dedicated to PMRs employing dispersed TiO2 confined in the reactor by a membrane for wastewater treatment. Moreover, the design and development of efficient photocatalytic membranes by the heterogenization of polyoxometalates in/on polymeric membranes is discussed for applications in environmental friendly advanced oxidation processes and fine chemical synthesis.

Abstract:
New photocatalytic membranes based on polylactic acid (PLA)/TiO2 hybrid nanofibers deposited on fiberglass supports were prepared and tested for the removal of ampicillin from aqueous solutions. The electrospinning technique was used to obtain hybrid nanofibers that were deposited on three types of fiberglass with different structures, resulting in three distinct photocatalytic membranes namely fiberglass fabric plain woven-type membrane, fiberglass mat-type membrane, and fiberglass fabric one-fold edge-type membrane. The results of the photocatalytic tests showed that the highest efficiency of ampicillin removal from aqueous solution is obtained with the fiberglass fabric plain woven-type membrane. Although it has been shown that the rate of photocatalytic degradation of ampicillin is high, being practically eliminated within the first 30 min of photocatalysis, the degree of mineralization of the aqueous solution is low even after two hours of photocatalysis due to the degradation of PLA from the photocatalytic membrane. The instability of PLA in the reactive environment of the photocatalytic reactor, evidenced by morphological, mineralogical and spectroscopic analyzes as well as by kinetic studies, is closely related to the structure of the fiberglass membrane used as a support for PLA/TiO2 hybrid nanofibers.

Abstract:
This work aimed to investigate the degradation performance of natural cellulose acetate (CA) membranes filled with ZnO nanostructures. Photocatalytic degradation of reactive toxic dye methylene blue (MB) was studied as a model reaction using UV light. A CA membrane was previously casted and fabricated through the phase inversion processes and laboratory-synthesized ZnO microparticles as filler. The prepared membrane was characterized for pore size, ultrafiltration (UF) performance, porosity, morphology using scanning electron micrographs (SEM), water contact angle and catalytic degradation of MB. The prepared membrane shows a significant amount of photocatalytic oxidation under UV. The photocatalytic results under UV-light radiation in CA filled with ZnO nanoparticles (CA/ZnO) demonstrated faster and more efficient MB degradation, resulting in more than 30% of initial concentration. The results also revealed how the CA/ZnO combination effectively improves the membrane’s photocatalytic activity toward methylene blue (MB), showing that the degradation process of dye solutions to UV light is chemically and physically stable and cost-effective. This photocatalytic activity toward MB of the cellulose acetate membranes has the potential to make these membranes serious competitors for removing textile dye and other pollutants from aqueous solutions. Hence, polymer–ZnO composite membranes were considered a valuable and attractive topic in membrane technology.

Abstract:
The combination of photocatalysis and membrane filtration in a single reactor has been proposed, since the photocatalytic treatment may degrade the pollutants retained by the membrane and reduce fouling. However, polymeric membranes can be susceptible to degradation by UV radiation and free radicals. In the present study, five commercial polymeric membranes were exposed to ultraviolet (UV) radiation before and after applying a sol–gel coating with TiO2 nanoparticles. Membrane stability was characterized by changes in hydrophilicity as well as analysis of soluble substances and nanoparticles detached into the aqueous medium, and by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), scanning electron microscope (SEM), and energy-dispersive X-ray spectrometry (EDS) for structural, morphological, and elemental distribution analysis, respectively. The TiO2 coating conferred photocatalytic properties to the membranes and protected them during 6 h of UV radiation exposures, reducing or eliminating chemical and morphological changes, and in some cases, improving their mechanical resistance. A selected commercial nanofiltration membrane was coated with TiO2 and used in a hybrid reactor with a low-pressure UV lamp, promoting photocatalysis coupled with cross-flow filtration in order to remove 17α-ethinylestradiol spiked into an aqueous matrix, achieving an efficiency close to 100% after 180 min of combined filtration and photocatalysis, and almost 80% after 90 min.

Abstract:
Novel hybrid structures have attracted attention in several instances of scientific research and different technological applications in this decade due to their novel characteristics and wide range of applicability. Hybrid membranes with multiple components (three or more) are also increasingly used in water purification applications, and their ease of handling and reusability make them a promising candidate for the degradation of organic pollutants by photocatalysis. In this study, the preparation and characterization of tungsten trioxide nanowire (WO3 NW)-based hybrid membrane structures are reported. Furthermore, the adsorption properties and photocatalytic efficiency of the as-prepared membranes against methylene blue (MB) organic dye under UV irradiation is also presented. Characterization techniques, such as scanning electron microscopy (SEM), high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM), energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS), and X-ray powder diffraction (XRD) are performed to study the morphology and surface of the as-prepared hybrid membranes. The removal efficiency of the hybrid membranes against MB is 77% in a 120 min decomposition reaction. The enhanced value can be attributed to the hybrid structure of the membrane that enhances not only the adsorption capability, but also the photocatalytic performance. Based on the results obtained, it is hoped that hybrid membrane technology could be a promising candidate for future photocatalysis-based water treatment applications.

Abstract:
Nowadays, the use of hybrid structures and multi-component materials is gaining ground in the fields of environmental protection, water treatment and removal of organic pollutants. This study describes promising, cheap and photoactive self-supported hybrid membranes as a possible solution for wastewater treatment applications. In the course of this research work, the photocatalytic performance of titania nanowire (TiO2 NW)-based hybrid membranes in the adsorption and degradation of methylene blue (MB) under UV irradiation was investigated. Characterization techniques such as scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS), X-ray powder diffractometry (XRD) were used to study the morphology and surface of the as-prepared hybrid membranes. We tested the photocatalytic efficiency of the as-prepared membranes in decomposing methylene blue (MB) under UV light irradiation. The hybrid membranes achieved the removal of MB with a degradation efficiency of 90% in 60 min. The high efficiency can be attributed to the presence of binary components in the membrane that enhanced both the adsorption capability and the photocatalytic ability of the membranes. The results obtained suggest that multicomponent hybrid membranes could be promising candidates for future photocatalysis-based water treatment technologies that also take into account the principles of circular economy.

Abstract:
Photocatalytic technology using semiconductor catalysts is a promising candidate for light-polluted water treatment. In the past decades, TiO2-related nanomaterials and photocatalytic devices have been applied for sewage ex-situ treatment. However, in situ photocatalytic technology using functional membranes is still needed for many large-scale outdoor scenarios. This work successfully fabricated a robust reusable photocatalytic membrane by firmly immobilizing TiO2 nanoparticles on polymer membranes, supported by various plastic substrates, through an industrial membrane blowing process. The as-fabricated photocatalytic membrane was fabricated by all low-cost and eco-friendly commercial materials and exhibited stable photocatalytic performance in domestic sewage in situ treatment in natural conditions. This work is expected to promote the photocatalytic membrane for practical application.

Abstract:
Photocatalysis is an efficient and an eco-friendly way to eliminate organic pollutants from wastewater and filtration media. The major dilemma coupled with conventional membrane technology in wastewater remediation is fouling. In this study, the photocatalytic degradation potential of novel thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU) based NiO on aminated graphene oxide (NH2-GO) nanocomposite membranes was explored. The fabrication of TPU-NiO/NH2-GO membranes was achieved by the phase inversion method and analyzed for their performances. The membranes were effectively characterized in terms of surface morphology, functional group, and crystalline phase identification, using scanning electron microscopy, Fourier transformed infrared spectroscopy, and X-ray diffraction analysis, respectively. The prepared materials were investigated in terms of photocatalytic degradation potential against selected pollutants. Approximately 94% dye removal efficiency was observed under optimized conditions (i.e., reaction time = 180 min, pH 3–4, photocatalyst dose = 80 mg/100 mL, and oxidant dose = 10 mM). The optimized membranes possessed effective pure water flux and excellent dye rejection (approximately 94%) under 4 bar pressure. The nickel leaching in the treated wastewater sample was determined using inductively coupled plasma-optical emission spectrometry (ICP-OES). The obtained data was kinetically analyzed using first- and second-order reaction kinetic models. A first-order kinetic study was suited for the present study. Besides, the proposed membranes provided excellent photocatalytic ability up to six reusability cycles. The combination of TPU and NH2-GO provided effective strength to membranes and the immobilization of NiO nanoparticles improved the photocatalytic behavior.

Abstract:
Photocatalytic membranes have been designed using two types of fine-scale alumina fibres, namely Nano Alumina Fibre (NAF) from Metallurg Engineering, Estonia and commercially available Saffil® Alumina Fibre (SAF) produced by Saffil Limited, UK. NAF fibres have an average diameter of about 15 nm and SAF about 4 μm. Membranes were produced in various ways. The fibre network architecture within the membranes, along with their porosity, specific surface area and mechanical properties, have been examined. These NAF-SAF membranes were impregnated with titania-based sol-gel coatings, to produce photocatalytic membranes. Their mechanical properties, specific surface area and flow properties were assessed and photocatalytic potential was measured by studying rates of degradation of aqueous dye solution. Membranes with photo-active top layers were designed by sedimentation of a fibrous layer of NAF-SAF, containing titania nanoparticles on a pre-sedimented support layer. Two types of photocatalyst were used, one a commercially available anatase nanopowder and the other silver-coated anatase. The latter was produced via modification of the first. Optimisation of the nanoparticle loadings was performed via assessing their photocatalytic efficiency. Specific permeability values were obtained experimentally and by prediction from the pore architecture. A novel form of photo-active membrane was designed by direct casting of milled SAF and titania-based sol-gel into circular moulds. Effects of fibre milling time and fibre to sol-gel ratio on their performance were studied, besides mechanical properties, porosity and specific surface area. Their flow properties and photocatalytic efficiency were also examined. Due to the availability of these fibres, especially the high production rates (kg/h range) and low cost of NAF, these membranes offer potential for large scale application.

De nos jours, les produits chimiques toxiques industriels ne sont pas toujours traités proprement, et leurs contaminants peuvent directement affecter la sécurité de l'eau potable. La photocatalyse, «une technologie verte» est une approche efficace et économique qui joue un rôle important dans la conversion de l'énergie solaire et la dégradation des polluants organiques. Ce manuscrit de thèse rapporte sur le développement des matériaux avancés (basés sur TiO2 et ZnO) susceptibles d'exploiter l'énergie solaire renouvelable pour résoudre les problèmes de pollution environnementale. Une partie de ce travail a été consacrée pour l’amélioration de l’activité photocatalytique du TiO2 sous lumière UV et visible. Par conséquent, les nanofibres composites de rGO/TiO2, BN/TiO2 et BN-Ag/TiO2 ont été élaborées en utilisant la technique d'électrofilage (electrospinning). La deuxième partie porte sur le ZnO, ainsi que les nanotubes multi co-centriques de ZnO/ZnAl2O4 et les nanotubes de ZnO dopés Al2O3 qui ont été synthétisés en combinant les deux techniques : dépôt de couche atomique (ALD) et electrospinning. Les propriétés morphologiques, structurelles et optiques de toutes les nanostructures synthétisées ont été étudiées par différentes techniques de caractérisations. Les résultats ont montré que les propriétés chimiques et physiques ont un effet très important sur les propriétés photocatalytiques des matériaux synthétisés. En outre, il a été constaté que l'effet de dopage conduit à une séparation de charge efficace dans le photocatalyseur, ce qui rend l’activité photocatalytique plus efficace. De plus, le méthyle orange et le bleu de méthylène ont été utilisés comme modèle de référence. Une amélioration significative et une stabilité à long terme de l’activité photocatalytique ont été observées avec les matériaux dopés comparés aux matériaux non-dopés sous lumière UV et visible. Des tests antibactériens contre Escherichia coli ont été également effectués; les résultats indiquent que BN-Ag/TiO2 présente à la fois des propriétés photocatalytiques intéressantes pour la dégradation des composés organiques et pour l'élimination des bactéries
Nowadays, industrial toxic chemicals are still not properly treated and these contaminants may directly impact the safety of drinking water. Photocatalysis “a green technology” is an effective and economical approach and plays an important role in solar energy conversion and degradation of organic pollutants. This thesis manuscript reports on developing advanced materials (based on TiO2 and ZnO) being capable of exploiting renewable solar energy for solving the environmental pollution problems. A part of this work was dedicated to improve the UV and visible light TiO2 photoresponse. Therefore, rGO/TiO2, BN/TiO2 and BN-Ag/TiO2 composties nanofibers were successfully elaborated using the electrospinning technique. The second part focused on ZnO. Novel structures of ZnO/ZnAl2O4 multi co-centric nanotubes and Al2O3 doped ZnO nanotubes were designed by combining the two techniques of atomic layer deposition (ALD) and electrospinning. The morphological, structural and optical properties of all synthesized nanostructures were investigated by several characterization techniques. The results show that the chemical and physical properties have a high impact on the photocatalytic properties of the synthesized materials. Moreover, it was found that the doping effect lead to a more efficient charge separation in the photocatalyst, which is an advantage for photocatalytic activities. In addition, methyl orange and methylene blue were used as model reference. A significant enhancement and a long-term stability in the photocatalytic activity were observed with the doped materials compared to the non-doped ones under both UV and visible light. Antibacterial tests against Escherichia coli have also been performed; the results indicate that BN-Ag/TiO2 present interesting photocatalytic properties for both organic compound degradation and bacterial removal

ENGLISH ABSTRACT: The purpose of this study was to develop modi ed tract-etched membranes using nanocomposite TiO2 for advanced water treatment processes. Photocatalytic oxidation and reduction reactions take place on TiO2 surfaces under UV light irradiation, therefore sunlight and even normal indoor lighting could be utilised to achieve this effect. In membrane ltration, caking is a major problem, by enhancing the anti-fouling properties of photocatalysts to mineralise organic compounds the membrane life and e ciency can be improved upon. In this study the rst approach in nanocomposite membrane development was to directly modify the surface of polyethylenetherephthalate (PET) track-etched membranes (TMs) with titanium dioxide (TiO2) using inverted cylindrical magnetron sputtering (ICMS) for TiO2 thin lm deposition. The second approach was rst to thermally evaporate silver (Ag) over the entire TM surface, followed by sputtering TiO2 over the silver-coated TM. As a result a noble metal-titania nanocomposite thin lm layer is produced on top of the TM surface with both self-cleaning and superhydrophilic properties. Reactive inverted cylindrical magnetron sputtering is a physical vapour deposition method, where material is separated from a target using high energy ions and then re-assimilated on a substrate to grow thin lms. Argon gas is introduced simultaneously into the deposition chamber along with O2 (the reactive gas) to form TiO2. The photocatalytic activity and other lm properties, such as crystallinity can be in uenced by changing the sputtering power, chamber pressure, target-to-substrate distance, substrate temperature, sputtering gas composition and ow rate. These characteristics make sputtering the perfect tool for the preparation of di erent kinds of TiO2 lms and nanostructures for photocatalysis. In this work, the utilisation of ICMS to prepare photocatalytic TiO2 thin lms deposited on track-etched membranes was studied in detail with emphasis on bandgap reduction and TM surface regeneration. Nanostructured TiO2 photocatalysts were prepared through template directed deposition on track-etched membrane substrates by exploiting the good qualities of ICMS. The TiO2-TM as well as Ag-TiO2-TM thin lms were thoroughly characterised. ICMS prepared TiO2 lms were shown to exhibit good photocatalytic activities. However, the nanocomposite Ag-TiO2 thin lms were identi ed to be a much better choice than TiO2 thin lms on their own. Finally a clear enhancement in the photocatalytic activity was achieved by forming the Ag-TiO2 nanocomposite TMs. This was evident from the band-gap improvement from 3.05 eV of the TiO2 thin lms to the 2.76 eV of the Ag-TiO2 thin lms as well as the superior surface regenerative properties of the Ag-TiO2-TMs.
AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: Die doel van hierdie studie was om verbeterde baan-ge etste membrane (BMe) met behulp van nano-saamgestelde titaandioksied (TiO2) vir gevorderde water behandeling prosesse te ontwikkel. Fotokatalitiese oksidasie- en reduksie reaksies vind plaas op die TiO2 oppervlaktes onder UV-lig bestraling, en dus kan sonlig en selfs gewone binnenshuise beligting gebruik word om die gewenste uitwerking te verkry. In membraan ltrasie is die aanpaksel van onsuiwerhede 'n groot probleem, maar die verbetering van die self-reinigende eienskappe van fotokatalisators deur organiese verbindings te mineraliseer, kan die membraan se leeftyd en doeltre endheid verbeter word. In hierdie studie was die eerste benadering om nano-saamgestelde membraan ontwikkeling direk te verander deur die oppervlak van polyethylenetherephthalate (PET) BMe met 'n dun lagie TiO2 te bedek, met behulp van reaktiewe omgekeerde silindriese magnetron verstuiwing (OSMV).Die tweede benadering was eers om silwer (Ag) termies te verdamp oor die hele BM oppervlak, gevolg deur TiO2 verstuiwing bo-oor die silwer bedekte BM. As gevolg hiervan is 'n edelmetaal-titanium nano-saamgestelde dun lm laag gevorm bo-op die oppervlak van die BM, met beide self-reinigende en verhoogde hidro liese eienskappe. OSMV is 'n siese damp neerslag metode, waar materiaal van 'n teiken, met behulp van ho e-energie-ione, geskei word, en dan weer opgeneem word op 'n substraat om dun lms te vorm. Argon gas word gelyktydig in die neerslag kamer, saam met O2 (die reaktiewe gas), vrygestel om TiO2 te vorm. Die fotokatalitiese aktiwiteit en ander lm eienskappe, soos kristalliniteit, kan be nvloed word deur die verandering van byvoorbeeld die verstuiwingskrag, die druk in die reaksiekamer, teiken-tot-substraat afstand, substraattemperatuur, verstuiwing gassamestelling en vloeitempo. Hierdie eienskappe maak verstuiwing die ideale hulpmiddel vir die voorbereiding van die verskillende soorte TiO2 lms en nanostrukture vir fotokatalisasie. In hierdie tesis word OSMV gebruik ter voorbereiding van fotokatalitiese TiO2 dun lms, wat gedeponeer is op BMe. Hierdie lms word dan in diepte bestudeer, met die klem op bandgaping vermindering en BM oppervlak hergenerasie. Nanogestruktureerde TiO2 fotokataliste is voorberei deur middel van sjabloongerigte neerslag op BM substrate deur die ontginning van die goeie eienskappe van OSMV. Die TiO2-BM dun lms, sowel as Ag-TiO2-BM dun lms, is deeglik gekarakteriseer. OSMV voorbereide TiO2 dun lms toon goeie fotokatalitiese aktiwiteite. Nano-saamgestelde Ag-TiO2 dun lms is egter ge denti seer as 'n veel beter keuse as TiO2 dun lms. Ten slotte is 'n duidelike verbetering in die fotokatalitiese aktiwiteit bereik deur die vorming van die Ag-TiO2 nano-saamgestelde BMe. Dit was duidelik uit die bandgapingverbetering van 3,05 eV van TiO2 dun lms in vergelyking met die 2,76 eV van Ag-TiO2 dun lms. 'n Duidelike verbetering is behaal in die fotokatalitiese aktiwiteit deur die vorming van die Ag-TiO2 nano-saamgestelde TMs.

Abstract:
Le dépôt chimique en phase vapeur assisté par plasma est appliqué pour préparer des couches minces amorphes de TiO2 à basse température. Un recuit à 300 °C pendant un temps minimum de 4,5 h permet de former la phase cristalline anatase. Les principales caractéristiques de ces couches minces comme leur structure cristalline, leur microstructure, leur largeur de bande interdite et leur hydrophilie de surface, sont déterminées. Leurs performances fonctionnelles comme photocatalyseurs sont d'abord examinées selon le test breveté par Pilkington, consistant à éliminer sous irradiation UV de l'acide stéarique préalablement adsorbé sur les couches de TiO2 ici déposées sur des plaquettes de silicium. Des membranes M100 (couche continue de TiO2) et M800 (couche de TiO2 couvrant les grains de support) sont préparées sur les couches de surface macroporeuses de supports poreux en alumine, de tailles moyennes de pores respectives, 100 nm et 800 nm. Ces membranes sont testées en condition "statique", avec la diffusion d'un soluté organique dilué dans l'eau. Pour le bleu de méthylène, on montre que la quantité de composé détruit par unité de surface de membrane et par unité de temps est égale à 2 × 10-8 mol m-2 s-1 pour la membrane M100 et 1 × 10-8 mol m-2 s- 1 pour la membrane M800. Ces membranes sont également testées dans des conditions "dynamiques", à savoir en procédé baromembranaire, avec deux configurations différentes (couche photocatalytique du côté de l'alimentation ou du côté du perméat) et trois composés organiques différents (bleu de méthylène, acide orange 7 et phénol). La modélisation du procédé (adsorption et réaction photocatalytique) est finalement réalisée à partir des données expérimentales disponibles
Plasma-enhanced chemical vapor deposition is applied to prepare amorphous TiO2 thin films at low temperature. Post-annealing at 300 °C for minimal staying time 4.5 h is required to form crystalline anatase phase. Characteristics of the TiO2 thin films including crystalline structure, microstructure, band gap and surface hydrophilicity, are determined. Functional performance of these anatase thin films as photocatalysts is first examined with patented Pilkington assessment by removing, under UV irradiation, stearic acid initially adsorbed on TiO2 layers here deposited on silicon wafers. Membranes M100 (TiO2 continuous layer) and M800 (TiO2-skin on support grain) are prepared on the macroporous top layer of porous alumina supports with an average pore size of 100 nm and 800 nm, respectively. These membranes are tested in “static” condition under the effect of diffusion of an organic solute in water. For Methylene Blue it is shown that the quantity of destroyed compound per unit of membrane surface area and per unit of time is equal to 2×10−8 mol m-2 s-1 for M100 and 1×10−8 mol m-2 s-1 for M800. These membranes are also tested in “dynamic” conditions, i.e. pressure-driven membrane processes, with two different configurations (photocatalytic layer on the feed side or on the permeate side) and three different organics (Methylene Blue, Acid Orange 7 and phenol). Process modelling (adsorption and photocatalysis reaction) is finally carried out from the available experimental outputs

Cette thèse porte sur l’élaboration et l’étude des performances de membranes d’ultrafiltration PVDF-TiO2 possédant des propriétés anti-colmatantes et photo-induites. La membrane est obtenue par application de la méthode de séparation de phases induite par un non-solvant sur un collodion de polyfuorure de vinylidène au sein duquel ont été incorporées des nanoparticules de TiO2. Il est montré : i) que la presence des nanoparticules de TiO2 les propriétés membranaires, et notamment le flux de perméat, par rapport à la membrane PVDF ; ii) que l’augmentation de la température de préparation de la membrane permettait de modifier la structure membranaire, en passant d’une morphologie constituée principalement de macrovides (dite en “doigts de gants”) à des températures basses à une morphologie spongieuse, contenant des pores de plus petite taille, à température élevée. Au-delà de la structure membranaire, des propriétés telles que la perméabilité, la porosité, la résistance mécanique, la cristallinité et les propriétés thermiques sont également influences par les changements de température de formation. Lorsque les membranes PVDF-TiO2 sont mises en oeuvre en mode photo-filtration (c.-à-d. filtration avec irradiation ultraviolette (UV) continue sur la membrane), le flux à l’eau pure de la membrane PVDF-TiO2 est encore augmenté, du fait du phénomène d’hydrophilicité photo-induite des nanoparticules de TiO2. Des premières estimations suggèrent que la photo-filtration par les membranes PVDF-TiO2 serait une économiquement rentable, car le gain en termes de filtration et qualité d’eau l’emporterait sur le cout énergétique induit par l’irradiation UV. En outre, l’efficacité de la photo-filtration a été évaluée avec des solutions d’alimentation synthétiques contenant des composés inorganiques et organiques représentatifs des eaux de surface. Il a été montré que si la plupart des ions inorganiques communément rencontrés dans l’eau potable n’ont aucun effet sur l’efficacité de la photo-filtration, la coexistence de Cu2+ et HCO3- dans l’eau d’alimentation entraîne un colmatage inorganique sévère qui inhibe le phénomène hydrophilicité photoinduite. En outre, la membrane PVDF-TiO2 présente également des flux plus élevés et une activité photocatalytique lors de la photo-filtration de solutions contenant des matières colmatantes organiques comme les acides humiques ou l’alginate de sodium. En conclusion, la membrane composite PVDF-TiO2 a démontré des propriétés et des performances significativement améliorées par rapport à la membrane PVDF, a fortioti lorsqu’elle est mise en oeuvre dans un système de photo-filtration sous irradiation UV. Ainsi, ce sont des matériaux prometteurs pour des applications membranaires en traitement de l’eau
This thesis deals with the elaboration and performance of a specific type of ultrafiltration membrane with anti-fouling and photo-induced properties, the PVDF-TiO2 composite membrane. The membrane was fabricated via the nonsolvent-induced phase separation method by incorporating titanium dioxide (TiO2) nanoparticles into the polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) polymer matrix. The TiO2 nanoparticles played a significant role in facilitating the membrane formation process and improving the composite membrane properties compared to the neat PVDF membrane. It was demonstrated that, by changing the membrane preparation temperature, the membrane structure could be affected dramatically, notably the morphological dominance of finger-like macrovoids at lower temperatures and their diminution in both size and number when temperature increased. Other membrane properties also saw systematic transitions with changes in formation temperature, as characterized by permeability, porosity, mechanical strength, crystallinity, and thermal properties. In terms of performance, the PVDF-TiO2 membrane exhibited superior permeate flux compared to the neat PVDF membrane. More importantly, when being operated in photo-filtration mode (i.e. filtration with continuous ultraviolet (UV) irradiation on the membrane), the pure water flux of PVDF-TiO2 membrane could be further increased, thanks to the enhanced hydrophilicity of the membrane, which comes from the photo-induced hydrophilicity phenomenon of TiO2. Preliminary estimations suggest that photo-filtration is a cost-effective method, as the benefit from enhanced water output outweighs the extra energy demand for UV irradiation. Furthermore, the efficiency of photo-filtration was evaluated with synthetic feed solutions containing inorganic and organic contents representative in surface water. It was identified that, while most of the common inorganic ions in drinking water had no effects on photo-filtration efficiency, the coexistence of Cu2+ and HCO3- in the feed led to severe inorganic fouling and inhibited the photo-induced hydrophilicity phenomenon. Besides, the PVDF-TiO2 membrane also showed its stronger flux performance and photocatalytic activity during photo-filtration of solutions containing organic foulants like humic acids or sodium alginate. In conclusion, the PVDF-TiO2 composite membrane exhibited much improved properties and performance compared to the neat PVDF membrane, and even stronger performance when operated in photo-filtration mode. Thus, it is a promising candidate to be used in membrane-based applications for water treatment

Abstract:
The thesis constitutes an investigation into the production of floating photocatalytic particles (FPP) as a low cost, low carbon footprint and chemical-free wastewater treatment. It is anticipated that this approach would be particularly attractive for developing countries where it could reduce incidences of disease and pollution. The particles were manufactured from cocoa butter (CB), and contained either photocatalytic nanoparticle titanium dioxide TiO2 (P25) or silver-doped TiO2 (0.5% w/w). The photocatalytic activity of the particles was evaluated by means of the decolourisation of the dye indigo carmine (IC). Three arrangements were used; small scale treatment using Petri dishes, an 1800 ml batch-recirculation photoreactor and an 8 litre UV contactor. Membrane emulsification (ME) was the technique used here to generate particles of controlled size. The particles were in effect what are known as Pickering emulsions in which the solid fat core (CB) was stabilised by TiO2 nanoparticles, resulting in composite particles that float easily and can receive incident light to generate highly reactive free radical species. The FPPs were characterised by FEGSEM and EDs mapping analysis, and the images obtained displayed a spherical structure with a rough outer surface, and the EDs showed a good coverage of TiO2 on the surface of at a maximum loading of 10% w/w. Tests were conducted to assess the stability of the particles when used in repeated cycles. Reuse of the particles caused a significant drop of photodegradation activity after four cycles to 42% of that of freshly prepared particles. The correlation of photocatalytic activity with silver dosage was also investigated. The highest photocatalytic activity was achieved at 0.5 wt. % of silver doped TiO2 and was some 10% greater than for un- doped particles. The organic carbon release resulted from TOC analysis for the FPPs that were exposed to UV light for 8.5 hr in water was less than 1 wt. %. First order reaction kinetics were exhibited during decolourisation of IC dye with respect to the initial dye concentration, radiation intensity, percentage coverage of the liquid surface by the FPPs, and the catalytic loading. For a static system (i.e. no forced convection), the most effective surface coverage was identified as being in the range of 60 to 80%. A linear source spherical emission model (LSSE) was adopted to estimate the intensity of the incident radiation on the surface of the FPP layer in the photoreactor and validated. In addition, a preliminary kinetic model to describe of the effect of the photocatalytic active surface concentration of TiO2 as well as the efficient intensity flux in the kinetic model was developed for the FPP layer photoreactor.

Abstract:
La dépollution de l'eau est un des enjeux majeurs du XXIème siècle. Si différentes techniques de retraitement existent déjà, nous investiguons une nouvelle méthode associant les propriétés des membranes filtrantes à celles des matériaux photocatalytiques. Ainsi, nous avons étudié la croissance et l'activité photocatalytique de structures de type noyau/coquille de ZnO/SnO2 intégrées dans des membranes méso-poreuses (alumine poreuse) et macro-poreuses (fibres de verre). L'activité photocatalytique de ces matériaux a été évaluée sur des polluants modèles tels que le bleu de méthylène ou l'acide salicylique, mais aussi sur des polluants organiques identifiés dans les eaux de la rivière luxembourgeoise Alzette. L'impact environnemental des matériaux développés a été déterminé grâce a des analyses de cytotoxicité sur des cellules colorectales de type Caco-2, ainsi que sur des bactéries marines de type Vibrio Fischeri
Water treatment is one of the main challenge to overcome on the XXIst century. If many different techniques already exist, we investigate a new process associating the properties of porous membranes and photocatalytic materials. Thus, we studied the growth and photoactivity of core/shell structures of ZnO/SnO2 integrated into mesoporous (AAO) and macro-porous (glass fiber) membranes . The photocatalytic activity of these materials has been evaluated on organic pollutants like methylene blue or salicylic acid, but also on molecules found in the Luxembourgish Alzette river. The environmental impact of the synthesized structures has been determined with cytotoxic analyses on Caco-2 cells and Vibrio Fischeri bacteria
