Patent abstract
A nanostructured zinc oxide membrane for removing oil from water includes a membrane and a plurality of zinc oxide nanorods on at least one surface of the membrane. The nanorods can cover less than about 40% of the surface of the membrane. Air pockets can be formed in spaces between adjacent nanorods. The nanostructured zinc oxide membranes can be used to separate oil from an oil-water mixture in a cost-effective and energy efficient manner.
