preparation example Construction

[0019] Such as figure 1 As shown, the present invention also proposes a method for preparing a charge gradient hydrogel membrane for thermal seawater desalination, which can be used to prepare the above-mentioned charge gradient hydrogel membrane, comprising the following steps:

[0020] S1, preparing two hydrogel prepolymer membranes with different charge concentrations;

[0021] S2, after the two membranes are closely attached, they are placed in an oxygen-free environment for chemical crosslinking. At the same time, the charge diffuses from the high concentration end to the low concentration end to form a hydrogel film with a continuous gradient distribution of charge concentration.

[0022] Specifically, the charges can be all positive charges or all negative charges; one of the hydrogel prepolymer membranes can be uncharged and the other one can be charged, or both membranes can be charged but have different charge concentrations. The two hydrogel films are placed in an ...

Abstract

The invention discloses a charge gradient hydrogel membrane used for thermal seawater desalination and a preparation method thereof, belonging to the technical field of water treatment. On the cross-section of the charge gradient hydrogel film, the charge concentration presents a continuous gradient distribution. Compared with traditional porous hydrophobic membranes and traditional solar desalination evaporators, the hydrogel membranes are resistant to organic pollution and inorganic salt scale pollution due to the binding effect of the polymer network in the hydrogel on liquid water and the salt-expelling effect Moreover, the osmotic pressure pump effect can be formed in the cross-sectional direction, therefore, it provides a faster water delivery rate and a stronger salt discharge effect, which can achieve higher water production and stronger pollution resistance. It can also carry out long-term stable treatment of sewage with ultra-high salt concentration, and even achieve zero liquid discharge.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of water treatment, and more specifically relates to a charge gradient hydrogel membrane used for thermal seawater desalination and a preparation method thereof. Background technique [0002] With the rapid growth of the world's population, the intensification of human activities and the resulting climate change and environmental pollution, the fresh water resources that can be directly drunk on the earth are increasingly depleted. The water crisis has become one of the most serious challenges faced by human beings in the world. The development of seawater desalination technology will become one of the important ways to alleviate the shortage of fresh water resources. [0003] Industrial seawater desalination technology can be divided into two categories: reverse osmosis technology and thermal desalination technology according to thermodynamic principles. Reverse osmosis is currently the most widely used de...
