Abstract Photocatalytic membranes (PMs), coupling of membrane filtration and photocatalysis in a single unit, have exhibited a great potential for use in energy-efficient water purification and wastewater treatment. The photocatalytic membranes have presented a trend developed from UV-responsive photocatalytic membranes (UV-PMs) (e.g., TiO2-based and ZnO-based PMs) into visible light-responsive photocatalytic membranes (Vis-PMs) (e.g., modified TiO2/ZnO -based, β-FeOOH-based, and g–C3N4–based PMs). This paper reviews recent development of the PMs with an emphasis on membrane type and fabrication, key criteria, basic performance assessment, application and challenges. The overall evaluation of the PMs in water treatment is presented, and the development direction of the PMs and the significance of developing the PMs and economy are pointed.

光催化膜在净水领域：离可见光驱动越来越近了？

摘要 光催化膜（PMs）是将膜过滤和光催化结合在一个单元中，在节能水净化和废水处理方面具有巨大的应用潜力。光催化膜呈现出从紫外响应光催化膜（UV-PMs）（如TiO2基和ZnO基PMs）向可见光响应光催化膜（Vis-PMs）（如改性TiO2/ZnO）发展的趋势。 -基、β-FeOOH 基和 g-C3N4 基 PMs）。本文回顾了 PM 的最新发展，重点介绍了膜类型和制造、关键标准、基本性能评估、应用和挑战。对PMs在水处理中的总体评价，提出了PMs的发展方向以及发展PMs和经济的意义。
