Abstract

AbstractThis study synthesized three MoS₂ morphologies—nanospheres, nanoplatelets, and nanosheets—under varied conditions and incorporated them into chitosan membranes. TEM confirmed unique morphologies and crystallinity. Clean water flux showed that the nanoplatelet (P-CM) membrane had the highest flux due to higher porosity. The P-CM membrane excelled in removing Mn²⁺ and Zn²⁺ ions, achieving 93.0 ± 0.5% and 90.4 ± 1.5% removal, outperforming membranes with nanospheres (S-CM) and nanosheets (T-CM). Its superior performance is attributed to thicker nanoplatelets forming more water channels. The MoS₂‘s tri-layered structure generated reactive oxygen species (ROS) via H₂O₂ catalysis, contributing to enhanced heavy metal removal. These adsorptive-catalytic membranes combine adsorption with catalytic decomposition of heavy metals, highlighting the work’s novelty and superior performance. The membranes demonstrated excellent flux recovery and reusability (96.0 ± 0.5% for P-CM) after chemical cleaning. The findings emphasize the impact of nanomaterial morphologies on membrane performance in water treatment and environmental remediation.
