Abstract

The present invention discloses a method for improving the CO2 separation performance of mixed matrix membranes by using γ-cyclodextrin (γ-CD). In the present invention, pebax-1657 is used as the matrix material of the mixed matrix membrane, and ZIF-8 synthesized by coordination with cyclodextrin is used as the filler material. A high-performance mixed matrix membrane is prepared by blending. ZIF-8 has an appropriate pore cage size in the CO2 / N2 separation system, thereby creating a large number of directional transport channels for CO2 permeation in the membrane. To further improve the selectivity of this material for CO2, γ-cyclodextrin is combined with ZIF-8. Utilizing its self-mesoporous structure, the original pore cage size of ZIF-8 is increased, and the permeation is increased. At the same time, the presence of hydroxyl groups increases the adsorption of CO2, thereby achieving the purpose of improving the CO2 separation performance of the mixed matrix membrane.

Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of gas separation materials, and in particular to a method for improving the CO2 separation performance of mixed matrix membranes by using γ-cyclodextrin. Background Art

[0002] CO2 is a major contributor to global climate change, and the current global CO2 emissions have reached 33 billion tons. CO2 is mainly produced by the combustion of fossil fuels and is also a component of natural gas, biogas, and landfill gas. At the same time, as an important feed gas for chemical production, CO2 has a wide range of applications in industries such as chemicals and food. Therefore, in order to achieve the goals of "carbon neutrality" and "carbon peak", it is imperative to research and develop efficient gas separation technologies.

[0003] Compared with traditional gas separation technologies, membrane separation technology has the advantages of convenient operation, low energy consumption, and no pollution. It is considered the most promising third-generation separation technology and has received extensive attention from all sectors of society. Among many membrane materials, polymer materials have been widely studied due to their advantages such as low cost, easy availability, and the ability to form large-area membranes. However, it is difficult for these materials to overcome the mutual restriction between permeability and selectivity (trade-off effect), and the performance of the membrane is usually limited below the Robeson upper bound. Inorganic membranes have excellent separation performance, thermal stability, and chemical stability, and have always been a research hotspot in membrane technology. However, high cost and difficulty in large-scale preparation have hindered the further development of inorganic membranes. To solve these problems, researchers have tried to combine the advantages of low-cost and easy film-forming of polymer membranes with the advantages of high-performance of inorganic membranes to prepare mixed matrix membranes with more excellent performance.

[0004] Polyether block amide (Pebax) is copolymerized from a rigid polyamide (PA) segment that provides mechanical strength and a flexible polyether (PE) segment that provides free volume. The flexible PE segment has extremely excellent preferential adsorption properties for the polar gas CO2. Therefore, Pebax has extremely excellent performance in separating polar and non-polar mixed gases. In this patent, Pebax-1657 is selected as the membrane matrix. Pebax-1657 is copolymerized from 40 wt% PA and 60 wt% PE. This model is selected because the membrane needs to have a certain mechanical strength and good CO2 adsorption performance. Compared with other models, the mechanical strength and adsorption performance are relatively balanced. If a model with a higher PE content is selected, agglomeration is very likely to occur on the membrane surface. If a model with a higher PA content is selected, the CO2 adsorption performance of the membrane will be weak. At the same time, if some metal-organic frameworks with special carbon dioxide adsorption functions are introduced into the polyether block amide to prepare mixed matrix membranes, the separation performance of the membrane material can be further improved, thus solving the problem of low permeability of organic polymer gas separation membranes. Summary of the Invention
