Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application belongs to the technical field of separation membrane materials, and relates to a fiber membrane, in particular to a preparation method of a high-crease antibacterial chemical fiber membrane and application thereof. BACKGROUND

[0002] Kitchen waste oily leachate is a kind of high-concentration organic wastewater, which contains not only water-soluble ammonia nitrogen, salt, amino acid and protein, but also a large amount of oil and bacteria. The oil layer accumulated on the aeration tank formed by the oil in the kitchen waste wastewater can significantly affect the efficiency of wastewater treatment. When the kitchen wastewater without oil separation is discharged into rivers or oceans, the oil film formed on the water surface can reduce the dissolved oxygen level, causing harm to aquatic organisms and fish death. More importantly, the edible oil in the oily leachate can be used as energy to produce valuable products, including biodiesel produced by ester exchange and bio-oil produced by pyrolysis.

[0003] Based on the "size screening" effect, developing superhydrophobic and superhydrophilic separation membrane materials is the main method to realize oil-water separation. Traditional superhydrophilic membrane materials can allow water to pass through their internal structure and trap oil droplets on the surface, thereby realizing oil-water separation. However, the deposition and clogging of oil droplets on the membrane surface can limit the application of superoleophobic membrane materials. Therefore, an ideal superhydrophilic separation membrane material should also have strong oil resistance.

[0004] Inspired by the underwater low oil adhesion of clams and fish scales, people began to make efforts to manufacture underwater superoleophobic separation membranes to solve the problem of oil fouling, including hydrogel coating membranes, polymer membranes and surface modified membranes, which make use of the layered structure of the surface and hydrated materials. However, the hydrophilic layer of these superhydrophilic membranes has poor stability, and is more suitable for the separation of non-polar solvents / low viscosity oils and water. In addition, these separation materials lack antibacterial properties, and bacteria in kitchen wastewater can be adsorbed on the membrane surface to form irreversible biofouling, which can exacerbate separation failure. SUMMARY

[0005] In view of the poor separation performance of high-viscosity kitchen waste wastewater and the lack of antibacterial properties in existing separation membranes, the present application discloses a preparation method of a high-crease antibacterial chemical fiber membrane.

[0006] The purpose of the method is achieved by the following technical solutions:

[0007] A preparation method of a high-crease antibacterial chemical fiber membrane, comprising the following steps:

[0008] a) Dissolve 2-8 g of chemical fiber per 100 mL of solvent to obtain a chemical fiber spinning solution, and prepare a chemical fiber membrane by electrospinning technology;

[0009] b) ultrasonic emulsification for 10-60 min to obtain an emulsion, according to 2-40 mL of organic solvent, 0.1-5 g of surfactant per 100 mL of water;

[0010] c) soaking for 10-60 min at 20-50 DEG C, taking out, washing with anhydrous ethanol for 1-3 times, washing with distilled water for 1-3 times, and drying at 30-100 DEG C for 3-24 h, to obtain the high-pleated chemical fiber membrane;

[0011] d) adding 1-5 mL of 2-methylimidazole, 20-100 mL of glycerol, 0.1-2 g of dopamine per 100 mL of anhydrous ethanol to obtain a mixed solution;

[0012] e) stirring for 24-72 h at 60-80 DEG C, taking out, washing with anhydrous ethanol for 3-6 times, washing with distilled water for 1-3 times, and drying at 30-100 DEG C for 5-12 h, to obtain the high-pleated antibacterial fiber membrane.

[0013] In the preferred disclosure of the application, in step a), the solvent is a combination of one or more of trifluoroacetic acid, N, N-dimethylformamide, dichloromethane, dimethyl sulfoxide, etc.

[0014] In the preferred disclosure of the application, in step a), the chemical fiber is any one or a combination of aramid, spandex, acrylic, polypropylene or chlorofiber, etc.

[0015] In the preferred disclosure of the application, in step a), the electrospinning process parameters are an electrostatic voltage of 5-25 kV, a spinning flow of 0.02-5 ml / h, and a receiving distance of 10-30 cm.

[0016] In the preferred disclosure of the application, in step b), the organic solvent is a combination of one or more of n-hexane, dichloromethane, ethyl acetate, toluene, etc.

[0017] In the preferred disclosure of the application, in step b), the surfactant is any one of cetyltrimethylammonium bromide, sodium laurate, ammonium lauryl sulfate, Span 80, etc.

[0018] The high-pleated antibacterial chemical fiber membrane prepared by the method of the application is formed by mechanically entangling fibers with a diameter of 0.2-20 μm, wherein the chemical fiber has a length of not less than 10 μm, the surface is covered with nano-level pleats, and the membrane pore size is 50-3000 nm.

[0019] Another object of the present application is to disclose the application of the prepared high-pleated antibacterial chemical fiber membrane as oil-water separation material, especially oily leachate separation material in food waste. The separation efficiency of water-in-oil emulsion is as high as 99% or more, and the separation efficiency is still higher than 97% after 10 cycles.

[0020] The pleat forming mechanism in the present application is as follows: the fiber membrane is oleophilic and hydrophobic, so it can absorb organic solvents in the emulsion. As the organic solvents continuously penetrate into the fiber, the volume of the fiber increases and swelling occurs. However, due to the uneven dispersion of organic solvents in the emulsion, the fiber surface stimulated by the organic solvents produces uneven swelling, that is, different tangential stresses are generated during the swelling process, which induces the fiber to form a nano-scale high-pleated morphology. Separation mechanism: in the water-in-oil separation process, due to the hydrophilicity of the fiber membrane, the water phase can be infiltrated and pass through the fiber membrane smoothly. The pleats on the surface of the fiber increase the contact area between the fiber and the liquid, and when the water phase wets the gap between the pleats, the steric hindrance effect generated can reduce the adhesion of oil droplets on the surface of the fiber, which is beneficial to maintaining the anti-fouling performance and separation stability of the membrane. At the same time, the oil droplets are isolated on the surface of the membrane by the "pore size screening" effect of the fiber membrane.

[0021] Advantages

[0022] The present application adopts electrospinning technology, which is simple in method, and the structural parameters such as membrane pore size and fiber aspect ratio are adjustable and have good repeatability. The high-pleated structure is directly constructed on the surface of the chemical fiber, realizing the unity of the flexibility and mechanical properties of the fiber membrane. The prepared high-pleated chemical fiber membrane has the characteristics of anti-oil fouling adhesion and antibacterial properties, and the required raw materials are cheap and easy to obtain. The separation efficiency of oily leachate is as high as 99% or more, and the separation efficiency is still higher than 97% after 10 cycles, which has broad application prospects in food waste treatment.
