Porównanie efektywności i foulingu ultrafiltracyjnych membran nanokompozytowych : zmieszana matryca podczas ultrafi ltracji odpływów z oczyszczalni ścieków

Języki publikacji

Abstrakty

Polymer mixed-matrix nanocomposite membranes were prepared by a wet-phase inversion method and used in ultrafiltration processes to treat wastewater treatment plant effluent spiked with organic micropollutants. The effects of halloysite (Hal), TiO2, and functionalized single-walled carbon nanotube (SWCNT-COOH) nanofillers on the treatment efficiency, permeability loss, and fouling behavior of polyethersulfone (PES) membranes were investigated and compared with those of a pristine PES membrane. The nanocomposite membranes exhibited lower porosity and stronger negative surface charge because of the added hydrophilic nanofillers. The PES-Hal membrane achieved the optimal balance of permeability and micropollutant removal owing to enhanced pollutant adsorption on the membrane surface and the creation of an easily removable cake layer (i.e., reversible fouling). The PES-SWCNT-COOH membrane demonstrated the highest treatment efficiency, but also the high permeability loss. In contrast, PES-TiO2 exhibited excellent antifouling properties, but poorer treatment capabilities.

Celem pracy było porównanie zdolności separacyjnych i tendencji do foulingu trzech membran nanokompozytowych podczas oczyszczania odpływu z oczyszczalni, który domieszkowano mikrozanieczyszczeniami organicznymi. Membrany nanokompozytowe typu mieszana matryca preparowano metodą inwersji. Membrany nankomopomozytywe domieszkowano haloizytem, nanotlenkiem ditytanu lub jednościennymi nanorurkami węglowymi funkcjonalizowanymi grupami karboksylowymi (SWCNT-COOH). Membrany nanokompozytowe charakteryzowały się niższą porowatością i silniejszym ujemnym ładunkiem powierzchniowym dzięki dodaniu hydrofilowych nanowypełniaczy. Membrana PES-Hal została uznana za najbardziej korzystną pod względem wydajności hydraulicznej i współczynników retencji mikrozanieczyszczeń. Było to wynikiem zwiększonej adsorpcji zanieczyszczeń na powierzchni membrany i tworzeniu łatwo usuwalnej warstwy placka (tj. oporu wywołanego foulingiem odwracalnym). Membrana PES-SWCNT-COOH charakteryzowała najwyższymi współczynnikami retencji, ale również dużą utratą przepuszczalności. Natomiast PES-TiO2 wykazywała doskonałe właściwości przeciwporostowe, ale słabsze właściwości separacyjne względem badanych mikrozanieczyszczeń.
