ملخص المقالة :
نقاط کوانتومی کربن (Carbon Quantum Dots)، که یک کلاس جذاب از کربن‌های نانوساختار هستند، اخیراً توجه گسترده‌ای را در زمینه فناوری‌های غشایی برای کاربردهایشان در فرآیندهای جداسازی به خود جلب کرده‌اند. این به این دلیل است که آن ها دو مزیت منحصر به فرد دارند. تولید آن ها آسان و ارزان است، در حالی که خواص فیزیکوشیمیایی آن ها مانند اندازه های بسیار کوچک، زیست سازگاری خوب، بی اثری شیمیایی بالا، آب دوستی قابل تنظیم، غنی از گروه های عملکردی سطحی و ویژگی های ضدرسوب بسیار مطلوب هستند. محققان با استفاده از این موارد، کاربرد آن ها را در طرح‌های مختلف غشاء برای اسمز معکوس (Reverse Osmosis)، اولترافیلتراسیون (Ultrafiltration)، نانوفیلتراسیون (Nonofiltration)، اسمز مستقیم (Forward Osmosis)، اسمز عقب مانده فشاری (Pressure Retarded Osmosis)، تقطیر غشایی (Membrane Distillation) و فرآیندهای نانوفیلتراسیون حلال آلی (Organic Solvent Nanofiltration) مورد بررسی قرار دادند. به طور خاص، CQDs به ویژه اکتشاف در زمینه تصفیه آب توسط فناوری های غشایی را تحریک کرده اند، زیرا زیست سازگاری مواد غشایی برای اطمینان از ایمنی آب آشامیدنی از اهمیت بالایی برخوردار است. علاوه بر این، CQDs در موقعیت مطلوبی برای دستیابی به عملکرد بی سابقه فرآیندهای جداسازی غشایی در تصفیه آب، با توجه به افزایش کارایی قابل توجه و تمایل ضدرسوب، همان طور که در تحقیق های اخیر کشف شده است، قرار دارند. در این مقاله، پیشرفت در توسعه غشاهای CQDs گنجانده شده را با بحث در مورد چالش ها و دیدگاه های آن ها بررسی شده است.
