Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of functional materials technology, and relates to functional membranes, particularly to a method for preparing a Janus cellulose membrane based on waste plastics and its application in emulsion separation. Background Technology

[0002] Currently, common oil-water separation methods include adsorption, electrostatic separation, coalescence separation, biodegradation, and chemical treatment. However, these methods all have certain drawbacks. For example, adsorption has limited capacity, high operating costs, and cannot be recycled, resulting in material waste; electrostatic separation requires external power equipment, leading to high energy consumption; and biodegradation requires harsh conditions, has a long cycle time, and low separation efficiency. Furthermore, due to the low interfacial tension between water and oil, surfactant-stabilized oil / water emulsions are droplets with a diameter of less than 20 μm, making them difficult to separate using traditional techniques. To improve emulsion separation efficiency, many interfacial materials with different surface wettability have attracted considerable attention due to their excellent separation performance. These high-performance materials possess abundant porosity and tortuous porous channels, enabling the coalescence of tiny emulsion droplets, but they still suffer from low separation efficiency and low separation flux. Therefore, there is an urgent need to develop more functional separation materials with ultra-high permeability and high efficiency.

[0003] Currently developed technologies allow the use of waste plastics as raw materials to prepare functional materials with different wetting properties, which can be applied to the field of oil-water separation.

[0004] Therefore, using waste cellulose as the membrane matrix, a superhydrophilic polydopamine / cellulose membrane (PDA / CM) is obtained after dopamine modification. A polyethylene terephthalate (PET) fiber membrane electrospinning solution is prepared using waste cola bottles as raw materials. PET is then electrospun on the superhydrophilic PDA / CM surface to form a hydrophobic PET, ultimately yielding a Janus membrane (PET / PDA / CM) with asymmetric wetting properties, which is applied to the separation of water-in-oil (W / O) and oil-in-water (O / W) emulsions. This invention uses waste cola bottles as raw materials, combining electrospinning and in-situ modification techniques to obtain a Janus membrane with asymmetric wetting properties. This not only proposes a highly efficient membrane material for separating water-in-oil and oil-in-water emulsions but also provides an effective strategy for the resource recycling of waste plastics. Summary of the Invention

[0005] To address the shortcomings of the existing technology, the present invention discloses a method for preparing Janus cellulose membrane based on waste plastic and its application in emulsion separation. This material uses waste cola bottle plastic as raw material, and combines electrospinning technology to electrospin superhydrophobic polyethylene terephthalate (PET) fibers onto the surface of a superhydrophilic polydopamine / cellulose membrane (PDA / CM), thereby achieving control over the material's wettability and applying it to the field of oil-in-water and water-in-oil emulsion separation.

[0006] Technical solution

[0007] A method for preparing a Janus cellulose membrane based on waste plastic includes the following steps:

[0008] a) After soaking the waste qualitative filter paper in 1-10 wt% dilute hydrochloric acid for 12-36 hours, preferably 6 wt% dilute hydrochloric acid for 24 hours, it is washed multiple times with ethanol and deionized water, and then vacuum dried at 50°C for 4 hours to obtain cellulose membrane CM.

[0009] b) The fiber membrane CM is suspended and immersed in a 0.5-5 g / L DA-HCl solution at pH 8.5, preferably 2 g / L, at 25°C for 2-48 h, preferably 24 h. The resulting superhydrophilic dopamine modified membrane (PDA / CM) is then vacuum dried at 50°C for 12 h.

[0010] c) Electrospin hydrophobic PET onto the surface of a superhydrophilic dopamine-modified membrane (PDA / CM) and vacuum dry at 50°C to obtain a Janus cellulose membrane (PET / PDA / CM) based on waste plastic.

[0011] In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the electrospinning described in step c) is electrospinning, specifically comprising the following steps: dissolving 0.5–5 g of PET plastic sheet in 100 mL of a trifluoroacetic acid / dichloromethane mixed solution with a volume ratio of 1:9–9:1 at 20–50 °C to form an electrospinning precursor solution, preferably 1.5 g at 25 °C with a volume ratio of 3:7; injecting the precursor solution into a 10 mL syringe, setting the spinning rate to 0.010–0.1 mL / min, preferably 0.037 mL / min, fixing the distance between the injection head and the receiving electrode to 12–25 cm, preferably 20 cm, and setting the spinning voltage to 15–25 kV, preferably 17 kV.

[0012] The Janus cellulose membrane material based on waste plastic prepared according to the method of the present invention has asymmetric wetting properties.

[0013] Another objective of this invention is to apply the prepared Janus cellulose membrane (PET / PDA / CM) based on waste plastics to emulsion separation, wherein the emulsion includes water-in-oil and oil-in-water emulsions.

[0014] The oil-water mixture is poured into a filtration and separation device. O / W emulsions are separated under gravity, and W / O emulsions are separated under a pressure of 0.5 MPa. Surface-affected liquids pass smoothly through the filter membrane, while surface-repellent liquids are blocked. n R1(%) represents the separation efficiency of the emulsion. When n is 1, R1(%) represents the separation efficiency of the O / W emulsion; when n is 2, R2(%) represents the separation efficiency of the W / O emulsion. R is calculated according to formula (1). n (%):

When n is 1, F1 (L m) -2 h -1 bar -1 ) represents the separation flux of the O / W emulsion per unit pressure; when n is 2, F2 (L m) -2 h -1 bar -1 F represents the separation flux of the W / O emulsion per unit pressure. Calculate F according to formula (2). n (L m -2 h -1 bar -1 ):

The qualitative filter paper (medium speed, pore size 15-20 μm, thickness 340±20 μm) was from Hangzhou Special Paper Co., Ltd. The discarded cola plastic bottles used were collected from local supermarkets.

[0021] The features of this invention are:

[0022] (1) Using common waste qualitative filter paper as raw material, a high-value cellulose membrane was prepared. Janus membrane with asymmetric wetting properties was prepared by hydrophilic modification and electrospinning technology. It has the characteristics of simple preparation process, low production cost and environmental friendliness. It not only realizes the resource utilization of waste biomass, but also develops a high-performance oil-water mixture separation membrane material.

[0023] (2) Using common waste cola bottles as raw materials, electrospun PET fiber membranes are constructed on the surface of hydrophilic cellulose to form Janus separation membranes with a stacked structure. This provides a high-value-added strategy for the resource utilization of waste plastics and has the advantages of being environmentally friendly and sustainable.

[0024] (3) The prepared Janus separation membrane material can achieve on-demand separation of surfactant-stable oil-in-water emulsions and water-in-oil emulsions by membrane flipping. The asymmetric wettability, high emulsion separation performance, low cost and ease of use of the Janus separation membrane give it a great advantage in oil-water separation efficiency.

[0025] Beneficial effects

Waste cellulose is used as the membrane matrix, and after modification with dopamine, a superhydrophilic polydopamine / cellulose membrane (PDA / CM) is obtained. A PET electrospinning solution is prepared using waste cola bottles as raw materials. PET is electrospun onto the surface of the superhydrophilic PDA / CM to form hydrophobic PET, ultimately obtaining a Janus membrane with asymmetric wetting properties. It exhibits good mechanical properties, stable chemical properties, excellent hydrophobic effect, good reusability, and convenient operation. The in-situ modification and electrospinning techniques involved are simple in synthesis steps and have sustainable and recyclable characteristics. This invention uses common waste plastics as raw materials to recycle environmental waste resources, not only solving environmental pollution problems to a certain extent but also preparing functionalized separation materials for separating oil-water waste liquids, achieving the goal of "treating waste with waste."
