Janus Reaction-Zone Catalytic Membrane for Sequential and Selective Degradation of Multiple Micropollutants: Performance and Mechanistic Insights

oxidation pathways, showing thermodynamically favorable degradation of Ph and OTC with energy releases of 1.52 eV for Ph and 5.57 eV for OTC. Overall, this study establishes a Janus reaction-zone strategy on an inorganic membrane interface, enabling the selective and efficient removal of multiple pollutants and providing insight into guiding the design of catalytic membranes toward complex water matrices.
