Abstract Owing to its unique physical and chemical properties, the graphene oxide (GO)has recently received fairly extensive attention in the application of water treatment. However, the membrane by pure GO layer-by-layer self-assembling is practically limited due to its lower separation efficiency of divalent cation. In this paper, a novel membrane has been prepared by grafting polyaniline (PANI) on a GO membrane to overcome the above mentioned defect. The performance of GO and PANI/GO composite membranes was investigated and compared. The results have showed that the membrane composited of PANI and GO has demonstrated a higher water flux and repulsion. The important role of GO loading for composite membranes was shown. When the loading of GO is 150 mg·m-2, a water flux of 214.5 L·m-2·h-1·MPa-1 could be reached for the composite membranes. In terms of heavy metal removal, the retention is over 90% for the tested solutions of CuCl2, ZnCl2, BaCl2, CdCl2 and NiCl2. The excellent separation performance of PANI/GO composite membranes has been mainly assigned to Donnan effect and size exclusion. Therefore, the PANI/GO composite membranes show a good prospect in the application fields of wastewater treatment.
