Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of membrane separation, specifically relating to a soft solid-state porous crystalline framework composite membrane, its preparation and application. Background Technology
[0002] Membrane separation technology is a technique that selectively separates mixtures of molecules with different particle sizes at the molecular level as they pass through a membrane. It offers advantages such as no phase change, low energy consumption, simple operation, good separation effect, and no secondary pollution, and has been widely used in gas separation, seawater desalination, energy-saving technologies, environmental protection, and petrochemicals, generating significant economic benefits. Currently used membrane materials are mainly high-molecular polymers; however, most polymer membranes are constructed from polymeric segments without stacking, lacking molecular-level design and control. Therefore, a "trade-off" effect exists between selectivity and permeate flux during the separation process, making further performance improvements difficult.
[0003] Porous crystalline framework materials, including metal-organic frameworks, covalent-organic frameworks, and molecular sieves, possess advantages such as high porosity, large surface area, uniform pore size, rich variety, and precisely controllable pore structure, making them ideal materials for membrane separation. However, the preparation of porous crystalline framework membranes currently lacks a universally applicable method for easy scale-up, and the irregular stacking of crystallites easily leads to non-selective system defects. Furthermore, the inherent brittleness of porous crystalline framework materials prevents them from being bent after deposition. These problems limit the large-scale industrial application of porous crystalline framework membranes. Mixed matrix membranes can overcome these difficulties in terms of preparation and structure. However, the content of porous crystalline framework materials in the membrane is low (typically below 30 wt%), and the crystallite size is much smaller than the membrane thickness, resulting in separation performance primarily depending on the polymer phase rather than the porous crystalline framework material phase with sieving capabilities.

[0071] Pervaporation test:
[0072] Figure 3 This is a schematic diagram of a pervaporation device that was independently built in the laboratory (wherein, Figure 3 a represents the pervaporation testing device. Figure 3 b is the membrane module used in the test). This process, driven by pressure, fully utilizes the differences in dissolution and diffusion rates of components in the mixture through the membrane to achieve separation. Atmospheric pressure is maintained on the feed side, and the components undergo adsorption and sieving (e.g., Figure 4 As shown, vaporization occurs after passing through the membrane, and the latent heat required for the phase change comes from the sensible heat of the feedstock. The permeate side is maintained at low pressure by vacuuming, and the permeated component vapor is condensed and collected by liquid nitrogen. However, when the mixture is fed in the form of vapor, no phase change occurs as the component passes through the membrane; this process is called vapor permeation. From equations 1-1 and 1-2, the permeability P of component A through the membrane can be obtained. A From the adsorption coefficient S of the membrane A and diffusion coefficient D A Together, they determine the membrane's selectivity α for separating components A and B. A / B This is its adsorption selectivity S A / S B and D A / D B The product of.
[0073] P A =S A *S B (1-1)
[0074] α A / B =(S A / S B )*(D A / D B (1-2)
[0075] The total permeability P of the membrane and the selectivity of component A to component B, αA / B, are two important parameters for evaluating membrane separation performance. In experiments, the total permeability P per unit time and unit area of the membrane can be calculated using the mass W of the permeate collected on the permeate side, the membrane area A, and the pervaporation time t, as shown in Equation 1-3. Gas chromatography can analyze and provide the component contents (xA,F,xB,F,yA,P,yB,P) of the feed solution and permeate, and αA / B can be obtained using Equation 1-4.
[0076] P = W / (A*t) (1-3)
[0077] α A / B =(x B,F / x A,F )(y A,P / y B,P (1-4)
