Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of wastewater treatment technology, and more specifically, to an ultrafiltration membrane for wastewater treatment and its preparation method. Background Technology

[0002] Dyeing and printing wastewater refers to the wastewater discharged during the pretreatment, dyeing, printing and finishing processes of cotton, wool, linen, silk, chemical fiber or blended products. Dyeing and printing wastewater is characterized by large volume, high content of organic pollutants, high alkalinity and large variation in water quality, and belongs to the category of difficult-to-treat industrial wastewater.

[0003] Membrane treatment, as a highly efficient separation technology, utilizes the principle of selective permeability of membrane materials to separate, concentrate, and recover pollutants in wastewater, thereby achieving wastewater treatment. Statistics show that using tubular and hollow fiber polysulfone ultrafiltration membranes to treat dyeing and printing wastewater achieves a decolorization rate of 95%–98% and a COD reduction rate of [missing information]. Cr The removal rate is 60%–90%, and the dye recovery rate is greater than 95%.

[0004] However, practical applications have revealed that the water flux of membrane treatment processes gradually decreases over time. This is because the organic matter trapped by the membrane material adsorbs and accumulates in the pore structure of the membrane material, leading to pore blockage and reduced water flux, which is detrimental to further wastewater treatment. In addition, practical applications have also shown that when the content of small organic molecules in dyeing and printing wastewater is high, the effectiveness of membrane treatment processes is significantly reduced. This is because some small organic molecules in the wastewater can permeate through the membrane material and are not effectively trapped, thus reducing the wastewater treatment effect.

[0005] Therefore, those skilled in the art urgently need a membrane material that can simultaneously retain and decompose organic matter in wastewater, and effectively treat small-molecule organic matter in wastewater, in order to improve the treatment effect of membrane treatment processes on dyeing and printing wastewater. Summary of the Invention

[0006] The purpose of this invention is to provide an ultrafiltration membrane for wastewater treatment and its preparation method. The ultrafiltration membrane for wastewater treatment provided by this invention can retain and decompose organic matter in wastewater, and can effectively treat small molecule organic matter in wastewater, thereby improving the treatment effect of membrane treatment process on dyeing and printing wastewater.

[0007] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solution:

[0008] One of the technical solutions of this invention:

[0009] A method for preparing an ultrafiltration membrane for wastewater treatment includes the following steps:

[0010] 1) Dissolve polyvinylidene fluoride in an organic solvent and anhydrous ethanol to obtain a polyvinylidene fluoride solution;

[0011] 2) The photocatalytic nanomaterials were calcined and impregnated to obtain modified photocatalytic nanomaterials. The modified photocatalytic nanomaterials were then dispersed in anhydrous ethanol to obtain a photocatalytic nanomaterial dispersion.

[0012] 3) The carbon nanotubes were impregnated and modified to obtain modified carbon nanotubes, and then the modified carbon nanotubes were dispersed in anhydrous ethanol to obtain a carbon nanotube dispersion.

[0013] 4) Mix the polyvinylidene fluoride solution obtained in step 1), the photocatalytic nanomaterial dispersion obtained in step 2), the carbon nanotube dispersion obtained in step 3), and the FeCl3 solution in a volume ratio of 10:(3-5):(1-3):(0.5-1.5), and electrospin the mixture into a film.

[0014] 5) Add NaBH4 solution to the surface of the spun membrane obtained in step 4) to obtain the ultrafiltration membrane for wastewater treatment.

[0015] Further, in step 1), the mass-to-volume ratio of the polyvinylidene fluoride, organic solvent, and anhydrous ethanol is 1g:6mL:2mL.

[0016] Further, in step 2), the photocatalytic nanomaterial is nano-titanium dioxide or graphite-like carbon nitride;

[0017] Further, in step 2), the calcination modification is performed by calcining at 200–500°C for 1–3 hours;

[0018] Furthermore, when the photocatalytic nanomaterial is nano-titanium dioxide, the calcination modification is performed by calcining at 200–400°C for 1–3 hours; when the photocatalytic nanomaterial is graphite-like carbon nitride, the calcination modification is performed by calcining at 300–500°C for 1–3 hours.

[0019] Further, in step 2), the impregnation modification involves placing the calcined and modified photocatalytic nanomaterials in an alkaline solution and impregnating them at room temperature for 20–40 minutes.

[0020] Furthermore, the alkaline solution has a concentration of 1.0 mol·L⁻¹. -1 NaOH solution;

[0021] Further, in step 2), the mass-to-volume ratio of the modified photocatalytic nanomaterial to anhydrous ethanol is 1 g: 20 mL.

[0022] This invention adds photocatalytic nanomaterials to an ultrafiltration membrane for wastewater treatment. The purpose is to use the photocatalytic nanomaterials to degrade organic matter in the water and release free radicals. Then, the released free radicals are used to oxidize microorganisms in the water, thereby further improving the wastewater treatment performance.

[0023] This invention modifies photocatalytic nanomaterials through calcination and impregnation, aiming to improve the wastewater treatment performance and hydrophilicity of ultrafiltration membranes used in wastewater treatment. Specifically, calcination modification allows the photocatalytic nanomaterials to form more microporous structures, effectively improving the membrane material's adsorption capacity for organic matter, thereby enhancing wastewater treatment performance. Impregnation modification allows the formation of hydrophilic groups on the surface of the ultrafiltration membrane, which plays an important role in improving the hydrophilicity of the membrane material.

[0024] Further, in step 3), the impregnation modification involves placing carbon nanotubes in an alkaline solution and impregnating them at room temperature for 20–40 minutes.

[0025] Furthermore, the alkaline solution has a concentration of 1.0 mol·L⁻¹. -1 NaOH solution;

[0026] Further, in step 3), the mass-to-volume ratio of the modified carbon nanotubes to anhydrous ethanol is 1 g: 20 mL.

[0027] This invention adds carbon nanotubes to an ultrafiltration membrane for wastewater treatment, aiming to improve the membrane material’s adsorption capacity for organic matter and provide sufficient space for the subsequent introduction of nano-zero valent iron.

[0028] This invention modifies carbon nanotubes by impregnation, aiming to improve the hydrophilicity of ultrafiltration membranes used for wastewater treatment. Carbon nanotubes have high hydrophobicity. If carbon nanotubes are used directly for wastewater treatment, a water film is easily formed on the surface of the membrane material, which is not conducive to water permeation and retention of organic matter, thereby reducing the wastewater treatment performance of the ultrafiltration membrane.

[0029] Further, in step 4), the concentration of the FeCl3 solution is 0.5 mol·L⁻¹. -1 ;

[0030] Further, in step 4), the electrospinning parameters are: spinning voltage: 30kV, slide speed: 100cm / min, receiving distance: 25cm, pouring speed: 3mL / h, and roller speed: 25r / min.

[0031] Furthermore, in step 5), the dropping rate of the NaBH4 solution is 20 d / min;

[0032] Further, in step 5), the NaBH4 solution is prepared at a concentration of 0.5 mL / cm³.-2 Add dropwise;

[0033] Further, in step 5), the concentration of the NaBH4 solution is 0.05 mol / L.

[0034] This invention involves adding FeCl3 solution to an ultrafiltration membrane used for wastewater treatment, and utilizing NaBH4 solution to remove Fe... 3+ By reducing iron to zero valent iron, nano-iron is introduced into the ultrafiltration membrane. The introduction of nano-iron can first react with metal ions in wastewater to reduce the content of heavy metal ions and improve the pH of the wastewater. Secondly, nano-iron itself can improve the photocatalytic performance of photocatalytic nanomaterials, promote the degradation of organic matter by photocatalytic nanomaterials, and release free radicals. Moreover, the heavy metal element obtained after the reduction reaction of iron will also promote the photocatalytic performance of photocatalytic nanomaterials, thus achieving highly efficient wastewater treatment performance.

[0035] The second technical solution of this invention:

[0036] The ultrafiltration membrane for wastewater treatment prepared by the above-mentioned method is an ultrafiltration membrane for wastewater treatment.

[0037] The third technical solution of this invention:

[0038] The above-mentioned ultrafiltration membranes for wastewater treatment are used in the treatment of wastewater.

[0039] Furthermore, the wastewater includes dyeing and printing wastewater.

[0040] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows:

[0041] The ultrafiltration membrane for wastewater treatment prepared by this invention has good physical properties. Specifically, its tensile strength can reach 36.07 MPa, its elongation at break can reach 171%, and it has good mechanical properties; its contact angle with water can reach 50°, and it has good hydrophilicity; its acid resistance can reach 5.9 h, its alkali resistance can reach 6.0 h, and it has good weather resistance.
