Herein, we report the preparation of a novel sandwich membrane constituted of a Nylon fiber and a stainless steel mesh with electrodeposited WO3 integrated to photoelectrocatalysis/filtration. The sandwich membrane showed high performance in the photoelectrocatalysis (PEC) treatment of waste water due to synergistic effect of filtration, adsorption and photoelectric processes in a flow reactor. Under optimized conditions, the membrane filtration integrated with photoelectrocatalysis achieved high oxidation rate and adsorption/filtration of the textile dye RR-120. The dye was completely removed after 150 min when an aqueous solution of RR-120 (1 x 10(-5) mmolL(-1)) at pH = 4.0 was flown through the membrane at 160 mL min(-1) with an applied potential of 1.00 V.10engArtigo10.1016/j.seppur.2019.116338WOS:000509625700042
