AI Article Synopsis

  • The text discusses advancements in ion separation technology, particularly through the use of membranes with ordered sub-nanochannels inspired by biological ion channels.
  • Despite progress, achieving high-precision ion separation remains challenging due to limited understanding of how ions transport in these confined spaces.
  • The study highlights the success of functionalized metal-organic framework (MOF) membranes, specifically UiO-66-(X), in effectively separating monovalent and divalent cations, achieving a remarkable K/Mg selectivity of 1567.8 by manipulating functional groups and channel size.

Article Abstract

Membrane consisting of ordered sub-nanochannels has been pursued in ion separation technology to achieve applications including desalination, environment management, and energy conversion. However, high-precision ion separation has not yet been achieved owing to the lack of deep understanding of ion transport mechanism in confined environments. Biological ion channels can conduct ions with ultrahigh permeability and selectivity, which is inseparable from the important role of channel size and "ion-channel" interaction. Here, inspired by the biological systems, we report the high-precision separation of monovalent and divalent cations in functionalized metal-organic framework (MOF) membranes (UiO-66-(X), X = NH, SH, OH and OCH). We find that the functional group (X) and size of the MOF sub-nanochannel synergistically regulate the ion binding affinity and dehydration process, which is the key in enlarging the transport activation energy difference between target and interference ions to improve the separation performance. The K/Mg selectivity of the UiO-66-(OCH) membrane reaches as high as 1567.8. This work provides a gateway to the understanding of ion transport mechanism and development of high-precision ion separation membranes.
