The current energy crisis has prompted the development of new energy sources and energy storage/conversion devices. Membranes, as the key component, not only provide enormous separation potential for energy purification but also guarantee stable and high-efficiency operation for rechargeable batteries and fuel cells.
Membrane roles in energy purification, storage, and conversion The membrane technique is deemed an advanced and sustainable method, providing vital strategies, which include membrane separation and battery separators, to promote further development of new energy sources from production to utilization.
Graphene-based membranes have been explored in different energy and environmental applications. The 2D nanochannel structure and low frictional water flow inside micrometer-thick graphene oxide (GO) laminates make them attractive candidates for large-scale energy storage systems.
Remarkably, two-dimensional (2D) material separation membranes have attracted intense attention on their excellent performance in energy field applications, owing to high mechanical/chemical stability, low mass transport resistance, strict size-exclusion, and abundant modifiable functional groups.
Fuel cells convert chemical energy from the reaction of fuels such as H 2, CH 4, and C 2 H 5 OH with O 2 into electricity, whereas rechargeable batteries (i.e., flow battery, Li–S battery) undergo the reversible charge/discharge process repeatedly, making them more suitable as candidates for large-scale energy storage .
Membrane separation processes, including H 2 membrane separation and biofuel pervaporation, help to construct a bridge between clean energy production and energy economy. In addition, it is worth noting that membranes are essential components playing vital roles in rechargeable batteries.
