Abstract：

Conductive membrane is a new type of functional membrane, which could effectively improve membrane’s ionic retention and anti-pollution properties through interactions of electrochemical redox and Coulomb repulsion assisted by electric field, has become a new hot spot for the researches in the field of membrane science in recent years and has a wide application prospects in water treatment. Current research on conductive membranes is aimed at improving their performance in terms of separation, anti-pollution and selective permeability. In this paper, the research progress in the field of conductive membranes in recent years was reviewed, the conductive membranes were systematically classified, the preparation methods of conductive
membranes and their applications in anti-membrane contamination, permeability-selectivity trade-off, thermal
management and energy consumption of thermally driven membranes were summarized and finally current
problems for the development of conductive membranes were pointed out. Our work could provide some
guidance for the development and application of conductive membranes.
