Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of membrane separation, and in particular to a polyamide composite membrane modified with a PDA solution, a preparation method and a method for extracting meta-cresol from phenol-containing wastewater. Background Art

[0002] Phenolic wastewater is a common pollutant in industrial wastewater, mainly from the petrochemical, pharmaceutical, dye and other industries. Phenolic substances (such as m-cresol) are highly toxic and difficult to degrade, which is extremely harmful to the environment and human health. Traditional treatment methods (such as adsorption, extraction, and biodegradation) have problems such as low efficiency, high cost, and secondary pollution.

[0003] Polyamide composite membranes have been widely used in membrane separation technology due to their excellent separation performance, chemical stability and mechanical strength. Traditional polyamide composite membranes are usually prepared by interfacial polymerization, that is, forming an ultra-thin polyamide separation layer on the surface of a porous support layer.

[0004] However, the traditional interfacial polymerization method has the following problems: Defective separation layer: Single interfacial polymerization can easily lead to uneven or defective separation layer, affecting the separation performance of the membrane. Insufficient hydrophilicity: The interfacial compatibility between the polyamide layer and the hydrophobic support layer (such as PTFE) is poor, making it difficult to balance the membrane flux and retention rate. Application limitations: Traditional polyamide membranes are prone to swelling or degradation in organic solvents or high-concentration wastewater treatment, limiting their scope of application. Summary of the invention

[0005] In order to overcome the problems existing in the above-mentioned prior art, the purpose of the present invention is to provide a polyamide composite membrane modified with a PDA solution, a preparation method and a method for extracting meta-cresol from phenol-containing wastewater. The polyamide composite membrane modified with a PDA solution of the present invention improves the permeation flux and the retention rate.

[0006] In order to achieve the above object, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0007] A polyamide composite membrane modified with a PDA solution comprises a support layer and a separation layer formed on the surface of the support layer; the support layer is a polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) base membrane with a molecular weight cutoff of 200-2000 Da1; the separation layer is a polyamide film prepared by modifying the polydopamine (PDA) to improve the hydrophilicity of the surface of the PTFE base membrane and undergoing two interfacial polymerization reactions, and the surface of the polyamide film contains a large number of amide groups; the separation layer has a thickness of 20-200 nm and an effective separation area of ​​5-100 cm 2 .

[0008] The polyamide composite membrane has a molecular weight cutoff of 50-300 Da1, and can intercept small molecular weight substances such as m-cresol, thereby separating them from phenol-containing wastewater.

[0009] The method for preparing a polyamide composite membrane modified with a PDA solution comprises the following steps:

[0010] Step (1): immersing the PTFE base membrane as a support layer in a PDA solution with a concentration of 1-5 mg / mL for 2-6 minutes to complete the hydrophilic modification and then rinsing with deionized water;

[0011] Step (2): immersing the modified PTFE base membrane in an aqueous solution containing polyethyleneimine PEI and piperazine PIP and an organic solution containing trimesoyl chloride TMC in sequence to perform a first interfacial polymerization reaction;

[0012] Step (3): repeating step (2) to complete the second interfacial polymerization reaction, generating a separation layer on the surface of the support layer, and forming a polyamide composite membrane;

[0013] Step (4): Dry the polyamide composite membrane at 60-80° C. for 10-30 min, and store it in deionized water after washing.

[0014] In step (1), the PDA solution is prepared by dopamine hydrochloride and tris(hydroxymethyl)aminomethane Tris in a mass ratio of 1:1-1:10. The advantage is that PDA (polydopamine) has strong adhesion and abundant functional groups, and the preparation using this mass ratio can effectively adsorb m-cresol.

[0015] In step (2), the mass concentration ratio of PEI to PIP is 1:0.1-1:0.3. The advantage is that PEI is rich in amino groups and PIP has amide groups. The synergistic effect of the two at this mass concentration ratio can significantly improve the adsorption capacity of m-cresol.

[0016] The method for extracting m-cresol from phenol-containing wastewater using a polyamide composite membrane modified with a PDA solution comprises the following steps:

[0017] (1) The polyamide composite membrane was soaked with isopropanol and loaded into the nanofiltration device, and the system temperature was adjusted to 20-30° C.;

[0018] (2) inputting a model oil containing m-cresol as phenol-containing wastewater into a nanofiltration device, controlling the operating pressure to 0.1-4 bar, and setting the permeation time to a preset value;

[0019] (3) The permeate was collected and the concentration of m-cresol was determined. The permeate flux and the retention rate of the polyamide composite membrane were calculated. The two important parameters for evaluating the adsorption of m-cresol by the polyamide composite membrane are the permeate flux and the retention rate. The calculation formula is:

[0020] Permeation flux: P = V / (A × Δp × t)

[0021] Retention rate: R = (1-CP / C f )×100%

[0022] V is the volume of permeate, L

[0023] ΔP represents the osmotic pressure, bar

[0024] T is the penetration time, s

[0025] A represents the effective area of ​​the polyamide composite membrane, m 2

[0026] C p Indicates the concentration of cresols in the model oil, g / L

[0027] C f Indicates the concentration of cresols in the permeate, g / L.

[0028] The model oil has an intermediate cresol concentration of 50-200 g / L, which has the advantage of high separation efficiency and is convenient for subsequent treatment or recovery.

[0029] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following advantages:

[0030] 1) The polyamide composite membrane separation layer modified with PDA solution in the present invention is a polyamide film prepared by surface modification with PDA solution to improve the hydrophilicity of the PTFE-based membrane and by two interfacial polymerization methods. The surface of the polyamide film contains a large number of amide groups, which form hydrogen bonds with the hydroxyl groups in m-cresol, thereby enhancing the adsorption of m-cresol on the surface of the polyamide film.

[0031] 2) The preparation method of the present invention is stable and reliable. The polyamide composite membrane prepared by the above method exhibits excellent nanofiltration performance in organic solutions, with a retention rate of 52.5-65.5% for m-cresol and an organic solvent permeability of 20-30 L·m -2 bar -1 ·s -1 In addition, the polyamide composite membrane has high stability and can maintain its interception performance under 30 days of continuous operation, which has good industrial application prospects.

Then, a polyamide film layer was synthesized on the inner surface of the modified PTFE base membrane by interfacial polymerization: an aqueous phase solution containing 12.5g / L polyethyleneimine PEI, 0.625g / L piperazine and an organic phase solution containing 1.25g / L trimesoyl chloride TMC were prepared and poured on the surface of the modified PTFE base membrane to form a polyamide film layer on its surface to obtain a polyamide composite membrane for 30min, and the excess aqueous solution was rinsed off with a cyclohexane solution, and then heat-treated in an oven at 60°C for 10min. In order to obtain a defect-free polyamide layer, the interfacial polymerization step was performed a second time: an aqueous solution containing 12.5 g / L polyethyleneimine PEI, 0.625 g / L piperazine and an organic solution containing 1.25 g / L trimesoyl chloride TMC were immersed on the surface of the modified PTFE base membrane for 10 minutes, and the excess aqueous solution was rinsed off with a cyclohexane solution, and then heat-treated in an oven at 60°C for 15 minutes.
