Abstract

The invention relates to a device for distilling a coupling membrane in asymmetric electrostatic fields, and the device comprises a raw material chamber, a permeation chamber, a membrane and electrodes, the electrodes enable a formation of the asymmetric electrostatic fields. The electrodes comprise a flat electrode and an acicular electrode. The direct current voltage applied on the electrodes is 101-104 volt. The invention is characterized in that under dual functions of temperature difference and potential gradient of the asymmetric electrostatic fields, the water molecule in an aqueous solution is formed to water vapor on the surface of the membrane by vaporizing, the water vapor is permeated through the membrane with a more rapid speed by taking the only existed temperature difference as the motive force and then enters the permeation chamber. The invention also relates to a method for distilling a coupling membrane of the asymmetric electrostatic fields.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a device and method for membrane distillation, in particular to a device and method for coupling membrane distillation using an asymmetric electrostatic field, which improves the permeation flux of water. Background technique [0002] Membrane distillation is a membrane separation process used to treat aqueous solutions. The two basic conditions for realizing separation by membrane distillation are: the use of hydrophobic microporous membrane and the temperature difference between the materials on both sides of the membrane. Taking direct contact membrane distillation as an example, one side of the porous hydrophobic membrane is directly exposed to the hot raw material liquid (called the high temperature side). side (called the low-temperature side); and because the materials on both sides of the membrane are at different temperatures, a water vapor pressure difference will be generated on both sides of the membrane. Under th...
