The traditional photocatalysts have no selective photocatalysis ability and are difficult to separate and recycle. Herein, the imprinted modified non-metal S-scheme heterojunction photocatalytic membrane (IM-NSH-PM) was prepared via imprinting modification technology and dopamine (DA) tight adhesion method, which possessed high throughput (2548.6 L m
−2 h−1 bar−1 ), good self-cleaning performance, excellent stability and recovery performance. The cross-linking and polymerization of DA on PVDF membrane surface can form a strong interaction between basement membrane and imprinted modified non-metal S-scheme heterojunction (IM-NSH), which made IM-NSH-PM adhered closely together. Besides, the formed S-scheme heterojunction between PDI and g-C 3 N 4 , which weakened the recombination rate of electrons and holes and further improved the photodegradation ability. The photodegradation rate of TC by IM-NSH-PM reached 71.88%. More importantly, under the action of imprinting modification, IM-NSH was endowed with many imprinted cavities consistent with the three-dimensional structure of tetracycline (TC), thereby TC can be preferentially selective adsorbed and degraded, and the selectivity coefficient of IM-NSH-PM to non-imprinted modified non-metal S-scheme heterojunction photocatalytic membrane (NIM-NSH-PM) was 1.88. This work shows a meaningful idea for exploring self-cleaning membranes with good selective photodegradation ability for the target pollutant. [Display omitted] • IM-NSH-PM with good flux, self-cleaning, stability and recovery performance is obtained. • A strong interaction formed between PVDF and IM-NSH makes IM-NSH-PM closely together. • The formed S-scheme heterojunction enhances the degradation ability of pollutants. • The ability of IM-NSH-PM to specifically degrade TC is enhanced by imprinting modification. • The selectivity coefficient of IM-NSH-PM to NIM-NSH-PM can reach 1.88.
