[0002] Producing biofuels from lignocellulosic biomass through biological conversion is an important way to obtain biomass energy, and the most critical step in the conversion process is the hydrolysis of lignocellulosic raw materials. Dilute acid hydrolysis or dilute acid pretreatment followed by enzymatic hydrolysis is currently the most widely used hydrolysis technology, but the lignocellulosic hydrolysate after dilute acid treatment contains a large amount of toxic substances (acetic acid, furans, phenolic toxic substances) produced by high temperature and high pressure degradation, which seriously inhibits the subsequent microbial fermentation process and reduces the yield and yield of the final product (bioethanol). Therefore, these fermentation inhibitors need to be removed before fermentation to ensure efficient utilization of resources. It is planned to use reverse osmosis to treat the lignocellulosic hydrolysate to remove toxic substances, but the lignocellulosic hydrolysate contains a large amount of solid residues and impurities, which will inevitably cause serious membrane pollution and affect the separation and concentration efficiency.

However, there are a large number of solid residues and impurities in the hydrolyzate, which cause the reverse osmosis membrane to be polluted, so that its concentration and separation effect is greatly reduced. In the reverse process, the pollutants in the reverse osmosis membrane can be flushed out under the action of water, which reduces pollution, prolongs the service life of the reverse osmosis membrane, and improves the separation and concentration effect. The surface of the polyamide permeable membrane is relatively rough and easily polluted. The present invention modifies the polyamide permeable membrane by chitosan to make its surface smooth, further reducing the membrane pollution in the process of treating the lignocellulose hydrolyzate, and the hydrophilicity of the membrane is increased, which greatly improves the membrane flux and improves the separation rate of sugars and inhibitors. However, there is a large amount of acetic acid in the lignocellulose hydrolyzate, and the pH value is low, which makes the reverse osmosis membrane unstable and has a certain adverse effect on the membrane. The present invention modifies chitosan by epoxycyclohexane, and then modifies the reverse osmosis membrane by the modified chitosan, so that it can stably run the reverse osmosis treatment process under acidic conditions, which plays a certain protective role on the reverse osmosis membrane and shows excellent anti-organic and anti-biological pollution performance. The water sealing device is a seal on the reverse osmosis membrane, which realizes the sealing of the liquid. The liquid is pressed into the reverse osmosis membrane under pressure for filtration. The two ends of the reverse osmosis membrane element described in this application are symmetrically provided with water sealing devices to ensure that the reverse osmosis membrane system can run "reversely", that is, the water inlet end can be converted into the water outlet end, and the water outlet end can be converted into the water inlet end, so that the pollutants are washed out by hydraulic action and the function of the reverse osmosis membrane system is restored.

The installation of the water sealing device can convert the water inlet end into the water outlet end through the adjustment of the relevant valves of the sub-osmosis treatment system, and perform "reverse" operation, so that the pollutants are flushed out under the action of water, and the function of the reverse osmosis membrane is restored. During the reverse osmosis treatment process, the water molecules and inhibitors such as acetic acid, furans, phenols, etc. in the hydrolyzate pass through the membrane and are discharged from the water production central pipe 3, and the remaining sugar substances are intercepted, so that the sugars in the hydrolyzate are concentrated and discharged from the concentrated water outlet pipe to achieve the purpose of recovery.
