| Zusammenfassung: | In recent years, adsorption-based membranes have been widely investigated to remove and separate textile pollutants. However, cyclic adsorption-desorption to reuse a single adsorbent and clear scientific evidence for the adsorption-desorption mechanism remains challenging. Herein, silk nanofibers were used to assess the adsorption potential for the typical anionic dyes from an aqueous medium, and they show great potential toward the removal of acid dyes from the aqueous solution with an adsorption rate of ∼98% in a 1 min interaction. Further, we measured the filtration proficiency of a silk nanofiber membrane in order to propose a continuous mechanism for the removal of acid blue dye, and a complete rejection was observed with a maximum permeability rate of ∼360 ± 5 L·m-2·h-1. The Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy studies demonstrate that this fast adsorption occurs due to multiple interactions between the dye molecule and the adsorbent substrate. The as-prepared material also shows remarkable results in desorption. A 50-time cycle exhibits complete adsorption and desorption ability, which not only facilitates high removal aptitude but also produces less solid waste than other conventional adsorbents. Additionally, fluorescent 2-bromo-2-methyl-propionic acid (abbreviated as EtOxPY)-silk nanofibers can facilitate to illustrate a clear adsorption and desorption mechanism. Therefore, the above-prescribed results make electrospun silk nanofibers a suitable choice for removing anionic dyes in real-time applications |
