Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention specifically relates to a composite pervaporation desalination membrane, its preparation method, and its application. Background Technology

[0002] With the continuous increase in the global population, the demand for freshwater is growing, and water scarcity has become one of the major challenges facing society today. Since seawater accounts for more than 95% of the world's total water resources, desalination is a viable approach to producing freshwater.

[0003] Pervaporation (PV) is a process in which substances are separated based on their properties, driven by a pressure difference across a membrane, using the membrane as the separation medium. PV is commonly used in industrial production of ethanol and dehydration of organic solvents, and its potential desalination performance has also attracted considerable attention. First, PV has a high salt rejection rate, especially for monovalent salts, typically exceeding 99%. Second, water undergoes a phase change during PV, eliminating the need to overcome the osmotic pressure of the brine; therefore, PV can treat high-concentration brine. Finally, PV has low temperature requirements for the treated solution, generally requiring only 40℃-70℃. Therefore, PV can utilize low-grade heat sources such as solar energy, geothermal energy, or industrial waste heat to heat the brine, reducing costs and making PV-based seawater desalination more competitive.

[0004] Polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) is widely used in the preparation of separation membranes due to its excellent film-forming properties. Modified PVA membranes possess both high desalination rates and high water flux. Chinese patent application CN 1978036 mentions a method of coating PA reverse osmosis membranes with acid-treated PVA. However, the resulting PVA / PA composite pervaporation membrane has low flux and a desalination rate that cannot reach 99%. Chinese patent document CN 109012197A describes a polyimide composite pervaporation membrane prepared by vacuum filtration, filling, and interfacial polymerization. The hydrophilic modified multi-walled carbon nanotubes provide sufficient hydrophilicity to the composite membrane, and the modified polyimide layer provides chlorine resistance, improving the long-term stability of the composite membrane. However, the non-hydrophilic surface results in a low overall water flux, failing to meet the levels required for practical applications.

[0005] Therefore, there is an urgent need to develop a pervaporation seawater desalination separation membrane with high throughput and high separation performance. Summary of the Invention

[0006] The technical problem to be solved by this invention is to overcome the shortcomings of low water flux and low desalination rate of existing pervaporation desalination membranes, and to provide a composite pervaporation desalination membrane, its preparation method, and its application. The preparation method of this invention is simple, easy to implement, and low in cost, and can simultaneously improve the water flux and desalination rate of the composite pervaporation desalination membrane.

[0007] This invention constructs a hydrophilic membrane surface by mixing PFSA-g-GO nanocomposite with a film-forming substance and adding a crosslinking agent. Combined with the mechanical strength and hydrophilicity of the matrix membrane, water molecules can pass through quickly, while the dense active membrane layer can effectively retain salt in the salt solution. It also has good performance when facing high concentrations of brine, providing a way for the application of pervaporation membranes in seawater desalination.

[0056] The mixing is preferably carried out under stirring conditions.

[0074] (2) After grafting GO with PFSA, the PFSA-g-GO nanocomposite can exist stably in the membrane and is not easy to fall off, thus improving the long-term performance of the membrane. Detailed Implementation

[0075] The present invention is further illustrated below by way of embodiments, but the invention is not limited to the scope of the embodiments described herein. Experimental methods in the following embodiments that do not specify specific conditions were performed according to conventional methods and conditions, or as selected according to the product instructions.

[0076] Example 1

[0077] The specific steps for preparing PFSA-g-GO nanocomposites are as follows:

[0078] (1) GO nanoparticles were prepared from natural graphite powder using a modified Hummers method. The mass of graphite and sodium nitrate was 5g each. After adding concentrated sulfuric acid, the entire system was stirred at about 2°C. Then, 10g of potassium permanganate was slowly added, and the temperature was maintained at about 4°C during the addition process. After the addition was completed, the temperature was raised and the temperature of the entire system was maintained at about 30°C for 1h. Then, 700mL of water was added and reacted for 20min. Then, 25mL of 30% hydrogen peroxide solution was slowly added. The resulting solution was centrifuged and washed with 350mL of hydrochloric acid aqueous solution with a volume ratio of 1:14. Then, the solution was sonicated, centrifuged, dialyzed, and finally freeze-dried to obtain GO nanoparticles.

[0079] (2) Preparation of PFSA-g-GO nanocomposite: First, GO nanoparticles were dissolved in DMSO to obtain a solution with a concentration of 0.03 g / mL. Then, N,N'-dicyclohexylcarbodiimide (DCC) (activator), 4-dimethylaminopyridine (DMAP) (catalyst) and PFSA in DMSO solution were added to the solution to obtain a mixture. The mixture was then reacted at 50℃ for 72 h. Finally, the mixture was centrifuged, washed with acetone, washed with ethanol aqueous solution at 95℃, and dried to obtain PFSA-g-GO nanocomposite. The concentration of PFSA in DMSO solution was 0.05 g / mL. The mass ratio of DCC to GO nanoparticles was 46:1, and the mass ratio of DMAP to DCC was 1:135.

[0080] Example 2

[0081] The preparation method of the composite pervaporation desalination membrane is as follows:

[0082] First, 40g of solid PVA was mixed with 360g of deionized water and heated and stirred at 90℃ for 6 hours. The insoluble matter was filtered off to obtain a 10wt% PVA aqueous solution. Then, 30g of PVA solution was weighed using a pipette, and 70g of deionized water and 15mg of PFSA-g-GO nanocomposite were added. After stirring at room temperature for 6 hours, a PVA solution with a nano-additive content of 0.5wt% was obtained. Then, 150mg of maleic acid was added, and the mixture was stirred at room temperature for another 4 hours to finally obtain a PVA coating solution with a nano-additive content of 0.5wt% and a crosslinking agent content of 5%. The coating solution was allowed to stand overnight to remove bubbles.

[0083] Dissolve 80g of sodium hydroxide in 2L of water to obtain a 1mol / L sodium hydroxide aqueous solution. Immerse the cut PAN film in the sodium hydroxide aqueous solution and soak for 1 hour. Then take it out, rinse it until the surface is neutral, and then air dry it for later use.

[0084] Secure the PAN film with waterproof tape. Weigh 20g of coating solution and pour it evenly onto one side of the film. Then, quickly scrape the film surface with a casting knife to remove excess coating solution, leaving a thin layer. To avoid large air bubbles on the active layer surface caused by human error, apply a second coating after the first coating has dried, following the same steps. After both coatings are complete and the surface is dry, place the film in a vacuum oven for thermal crosslinking at 60℃ for 24 hours. Remove and allow to cool before use; this film is designated M1.

[0085] Blank control group and Examples 4-6

[0086] The specific steps are basically the same as in Example 2, except that the content of the added PFSA-g-GO nanocomposite is different. The specific differences are shown in Table 1.

[0087] Table 1

[0088]

[0089] The pervaporation desalination performance of the blank control group and Examples 2-5 is shown in Table 2. The salt solution used was an aqueous sodium chloride solution, and the minimum pressure on the vacuum pump side was 2 kPa.

[0090] Table 2

[0091] Example Blank control group Example 2 Example 3 Example 4 Example 5 Membrane number M0 M1 M2 M3 M4 Salt solution concentration 3.5wt% 3.5wt% 3.5wt% 3.5wt% 3.5wt% Solution temperature 30℃ 30℃ 30℃ 30℃ 30℃ water flux <![CDATA[4.46kg / m 2 ·h]]> <![CDATA[5.06kg / m 2 ·h]]> <![CDATA[5.61kg / m 2 ·h]]> <![CDATA[6.14kg / m 2 ·h]]> <![CDATA[7.86kg / m 2 ·h]]> Desalination rate 92.48% 99.83% 99.99% 99.99% 97.46%

[0092] Comparing the blank control group with Examples 2-5, it was found that as the content of PFSA-g-GO nanocomposite in the membrane increased, the water flux of the composite membrane gradually increased, and the desalination rate remained above 95%. However, the desalination rate decreased after the content of PFSA-g-GO nanocomposite reached 4 wt%. This is because a large amount of PFSA-g-GO nanocomposite could not be completely dispersed in the PVA layer, and the PFSA-g-GO nanocomposite aggregated in the membrane layer, resulting in larger diffusion channels inside the membrane layer and easier salt penetration. Therefore, selecting an appropriate amount of PFSA-g-GO nanocomposite is crucial.

[0093] Examples 6-7

[0094] The specific steps are basically the same as in Example 2, the difference being the use of different crosslinking agents. Details and the pervaporation desalination performance of different examples are shown in Table 3.

[0095] Table 3

[0096] Example Example 2 Example 6 Example 7 Membrane number M1 M5 M6 Salt solution concentration 3.5wt% 3.5wt% 3.5wt% Solution temperature 30℃ 30℃ 30℃ Types of crosslinking agents Maleic acid tartaric acid 4-Sulfophthalic acid Crosslinking agent dosage 5% 5% 5% water flux <![CDATA[5.06kg / m 2 ·h]]> <![CDATA[4.66kg / m 2 ·h]]> <![CDATA[6.43kg / m 2 ·h]]> Desalination rate 99.83% 99.99% 99.99%

[0097] Comparing Example 2 with Examples 6-7, it was found that different types of crosslinking agents also affect the pervaporation and desalination performance of the composite membrane. Among them, the composite membrane crosslinked with 4-sulfophthalic acid had the highest water flux and better desalination rate under the same test conditions. This is because the sulfonic acid group of the crosslinking agent 4-sulfophthalic acid itself is a hydrophilic group, which can assist water molecules in transport within the membrane and accelerate the water molecule permeation rate.

[0098] Example 8

[0099] The specific steps are basically the same as in Example 7, except that the amount of PFSA-g-GO nanocomposite added is 2wt%.

[0100] The pervaporation desalination performance of Example 8 is shown in Tables 4 and 5.

[0105] Comparative Example 1

[0106] Except for replacing the PFSA-g-GO nanocomposite with the OA-g-GO nanocomposite (oxalic acid-modified graphene oxide), all other operations and conditions were the same as in Example 8.

[0107] The preparation process of OA-g-GO is as follows:

[0108] The prepared GO nanoparticles were ultrasonically dispersed in water to obtain a 0.2 g / L GO aqueous dispersion. 50 mL of the GO aqueous dispersion was taken, and 5 mL of hydrobromic acid was added. Hydrobromic acid can open the rings of the epoxides on the GO plane and convert them into hydroxyl groups, which is beneficial for subsequent OA grafting. After adding hydrobromic acid, the entire system was stirred for 16 h, with the system temperature controlled at 30 °C during stirring. After the predetermined stirring time, 10 g of OA was added to the system, and stirring was continued for another 10 h. After stirring, the entire system was continuously washed with deionized water until the filtrate became neutral. The obtained solid was then freeze-dried to obtain OA-g-GO. The mass ratio of GO to OA was 1:1000.

[0109] Comparative Example 2

[0110] Except for replacing the PFSA-g-GO nanocomposite with the ODA-g-GO nanocomposite (octadecylamine-modified graphene oxide), all other operations and conditions were the same as in Example 8.

[0111] The preparation process of ODA-g-GO is as follows:

[0112] The prepared GO nanoparticles were ultrasonically dispersed in water to obtain a 0.2 g / L GO aqueous dispersion. 500 mL of the GO aqueous dispersion was added to an ethanol solution of ODA (1.5 g ODA dissolved in 150 mL ethanol), resulting in a GO to ODA mass ratio of 1:15 in the mixed solution. The mixture was stirred thoroughly and then sealed in a vacuum oven at atmospheric pressure for 16 hours. The resulting solution was filtered, vacuum dried, and then ground to obtain ODA-g-GO.

[0113] Comparative Example 3

[0114] Except for replacing the PFSA-g-GO nanocomposite with the CS-g-GO nanocomposite (chitosan-modified graphene oxide), all other operations and conditions were the same as in Example 8.

[0115] The preparation process of CS-g-GO is as follows:

[0116] The prepared GO nanoparticles were ultrasonically dispersed in water to obtain a 1 g / L GO aqueous dispersion. 100 mL of the GO aqueous dispersion was then taken, followed by the addition of 5 g chitosan and 2 g sodium borohydride. The mixture was ultrasonically in a water bath at room temperature for 4 hours, and then the entire system was refluxed at 100 °C for 4 hours. The mixture was then filtered and separated, and the resulting material was washed with distilled water until neutral. Finally, it was dried in an oven at 60 °C for 5 hours to obtain the final product.
