Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of membrane separation, and relates to a technology for modifying a macroporous tubular Al 2 O 3 support to successfully prepare a CAU-10-H metal-organic framework thin film for gas separation. Specifically, it is a method for preparing an aluminum sulfate-induced layer on a tubular macroporous alumina support and then inducing the formation of an aluminum-based MOF film. Background Art

[0002] Membrane separation technology uses a selective permeable membrane. Under the driving force of pressure or temperature gradient, according to the different permeation rates of each component of the mixture, the separation purpose can be achieved. It is a potential new separation technology with the advantages of low energy consumption, no secondary pollution, small floor area, high separation efficiency, etc., and has been widely used in the fields of gas separation or liquid separation.

[0003] Metal-Organic Frameworks (MOFs) materials are a class of crystalline materials formed by the self-assembly of inorganic metal ions or metal-oxygen clusters (secondary structure units) and monodentate or polydentate organic ligands rich in multifunctional groups through coordination bonds, and have the advantages of adjustable pore size and shape, large specific surface area, and easy functionalization of pores.

[0004] The CAU-10-H series of metal-organic framework materials were first discovered by Norbert Stock et al. They synthesized the CAU (Christian Albrechts University) series of aluminum-based MOF materials using a simple and common solvothermal method and systematically studied the reaction system. Its preparation method is simple, and its structural stability and functionality have shown potential application value in multiple fields. Currently, there is little research on CAU-10-H membranes for gas separation, and most of them are mixed matrix membranes. The preparation of mixed matrix membranes is less difficult than that of polycrystalline MOF membranes. The polycrystalline MOF membrane has a thinner film layer and the entire film layer has a separation effect, and it can have a higher permeation flux and separation factor when used for gas separation. At the same time, different from MOF membranes such as ZIF-8, the preparation of polycrystalline CAU-10-H membranes is more difficult. The carriers used in the reported polycrystalline CAU-10-H membrane materials are mostly sheet carriers or tubular carriers with smaller surface defects and relatively flat surfaces. For example, Zhao et al. in the paper titled "Induced Synthesis of an Al-Based CAU-10 Tubular Membrane for the Highly Efficient Separation of MeOH / MTBE by Pervaporation (Industrial & Engineering Chemistry Research, 2023, 62(44): 18694-18703.)" used γ-Al 2 O 3 to induce the preparation of a membrane for separating MeOH / MTBE on a carrier with a surface defect of only 200 nm, but its gas separation performance was not mentioned. The gas separation membrane has higher quality requirements for the membrane itself than the liquid separation membrane. Therefore, it is somewhat difficult to directly apply these preparation methods to the preparation of CAU-10-H membranes on the surface of macroporous tubular carriers. Therefore, in order to prepare a continuous, dense, flat and defect-free CAU-10-H membrane on the surface of macroporous tubular carriers, it is necessary to improve the homologous metal induction method.

[0005] For this reason, the present invention proposes a method for modifying the surface of a macroporous tubular alumina carrier with aluminum sulfate, realizing the preparation of a continuous, dense and flat CAU-10-H membrane on the surface of an inexpensive macroporous tubular carrier. Summary of the Invention

[0006] The purpose of the present invention is to provide a method for modifying a tubular macroporous carrier with aluminum sulfate, so as to prepare a CAU-10-H membrane for gas separation on the tubular macroporous alumina carrier.

[0007] Inventive concept involved in the present invention: The present invention uses a cheap micron-sized carrier with large pores and no separation performance. Although it has many defects, its price is lower. The synthesis conditions of the CAU-10-H membrane on the tubular carrier are relatively harsh. It is difficult to form a film on the micron-sized macroporous carrier without any treatment of the carrier. Therefore, an aluminum sulfate solution is introduced onto the carrier to effectively modify the micron-sized macroporous defects on the carrier surface, and it also provides an aluminum source for the growth of the CAU-10-H membrane layer, which is beneficial to the heterogeneous nucleation of CAU-10-H crystals and the tight binding between the membrane layer and the carrier, enabling the CAU-10-H membrane to crystallize and form a film on the macroporous micron-sized carrier.

[0008] Technical solution of the present invention:

[0009] A method for preparing a CAU-10-H membrane for gas separation on a macroporous tubular carrier by aluminum sulfate modification, the steps are as follows:

[0010] (1) Prepare an aluminum sulfate solution

[0011] Dissolve aluminum sulfate octadecahydrate in deionized water, stir well and then ultrasonically dissolve and disperse it thoroughly;

[0012] (2) Thermally dip-coat the aluminum sulfate solution

[0013] Select a polytetrafluoroethylene cylindrical plug that matches the size of the carrier tube port and wrap its surface with polytetrafluoroethylene tape, then press it into both ends of the carrier tube respectively to ensure the tightness of the carrier tube; preheat the sealed carrier tube under constant temperature conditions; perform thermal dip-coating: vertically and uniformly immerse the carrier tube completely from above the aluminum sulfate solution into the aluminum sulfate solution below the liquid level of the aluminum sulfate solution, ensuring that the longitudinal axis of the carrier tube is perpendicular to the liquid level of the aluminum sulfate solution. After the dipping is completed, slowly lift the carrier tube to ensure that a uniform liquid film is formed on the wall surface of the carrier tube; repeat the above operation for gradient coating; through prior preheating treatment, the residual water and adsorbates in the pores of the porous tubular carrier can be removed, making it easier for the aluminum sulfate to bind to the carrier surface. At the same time, due to the certain water absorption of the alumina carrier, when the preheated carrier is placed in the room-temperature solution, the carrier quickly absorbs water, causing the concentration of aluminum sulfate near the carrier tube to rapidly increase, so that more aluminum sulfate is loaded on the carrier, better modifying the surface defects of the tubular carrier.

[0014] (3) Calcination and curing

[0015] Place the coated carrier tube on an iron stand, ensure that the tube body is vertical, and place it in the center of the muffle furnace; set the program-controlled temperature curve: in the first stage, raise the temperature from room temperature to the target temperature of 400°C at a rate of 1°C / min, in the second stage, keep the temperature constant for 300 min for dehydration treatment; in the third stage, lower the temperature to below 100°C at a rate of 1°C / min, and then turn off the heating system and let it cool naturally;

[0016] (4) Preparation of CAU-10-H Membrane

[0017] The CAU-10-H membrane was prepared by the solvothermal method. Both ends of the carrier tube with a homologous metal-induced layer were sealed with PTFE stoppers and placed in the inner lining of a PTFE reaction kettle. After adding the synthesis solution, it was sealed and reacted at 120 °C for 8 h. The composition of the synthesis solution was as follows: the molar ratio of the metal source to the organic ligand was Al 3+ :C 8 H 6 O 4 =1:1, and the volume ratio of the solvent was DMF:H 2 O=1:4; based on the Al 3+ concentration, the concentration of the synthesis solution was 0.18 mol / L. After the reaction, it was naturally cooled to room temperature. After taking it out, it was soaked and washed with deionized water and anhydrous methanol reagents for three days respectively, and the solvents were replaced twice during this period. It was vacuum dried at 80 °C overnight. After being fully dried, it was placed in a desiccator for single-component gas permeation testing.

[0018] The ultrasonic treatment conditions in step (1) included: ultrasonic frequency 20 - 40 kHz, treatment time 20 - 40 min, and treatment temperature maintained at 20 - 40 °C; the mass fraction range of aluminum sulfate in the impregnation solution was controlled at 0.5% - 2%.

[0019] During the sealing process in step (2), it was necessary to ensure that the stopper was fully embedded more than 3 mm deep into the port to ensure that the stopper would not fall off during the impregnation process.

[0020] The sealing treatment in step (2) specifically included: double-end sealing with a sealing plug made of PTFE and combined with raw tape, and the sealing depth ≥ 3 mm; the preheating treatment temperature was 100 - 200 °C, and the duration was 1.5 - 2.5 h; the parameters of the hot impregnation method included: impregnation time 10 - 30 s, and the temperature of the impregnation solution was maintained at 15 - 30 °C; the number of gradient coating times was 2 - 4 times.

[0021] The obtained CAU-10-H membrane in step (4) was subjected to single-component gas permeation testing using a gas permeation testing device to evaluate the denseness and gas separation performance of the prepared CAU-10-H membrane. The specific operation was as follows: The membrane was sealed in a tubular membrane module using an O-ring. One end of the membrane was sealed, and the other end was connected to a soap bubble tube. The pressure on the feed side was controlled by a back pressure valve, and the pressure was controlled at 0.1 Mpa. After the permeate side was connected to the soap bubble tube, it was communicated with the atmosphere. The time taken for a certain volume of gas to pass through the membrane was obtained using a stopwatch and a soap bubble flowmeter, and the tests were all carried out at room temperature.

[0022] The gas permeation rate is represented by P, and the unit is mol / (m 2·s·Pa), which is defined as the number of moles of gas flowing through the membrane per unit membrane area per unit time under a unit transmembrane pressure. The ideal gas selectivity is represented by α, which is defined as the ratio of the permeation rates of two different gases:

[0023]

[0024] Advantages of the present invention:

[0025] (1) The present invention has successfully prepared a dense CAU-10-H membrane on a macroporous alumina support tube. The flat supports with smaller defects, usually less than 200 nm, are used for the reported CAU-10-H polycrystalline membranes in the existing literature. However, the present invention is applicable to tubular supports with larger defects and low cost. The method of preparing the induction layer with aluminum sulfate can make the induction layer thinner and have stronger binding force, improving the continuity of the prepared membrane and shortening the time required for the crystallization step.

[0026] (2) By modifying the surface of the macroporous support with aluminum sulfate, it not only fills the defects on the rough surface of the macroporous support but also plays an inducing role, strengthening the binding force between the support surface and the membrane layer while reducing film formation inside the support, retaining the well-developed gas transmission channels inside the macroporous support. The obtained CAU-10-H membrane has relatively high gas permeability while maintaining good H 2 / CO 2 ideal selectivity. Description of the drawings

Among them, H 2 / CO 2 The ideal selectivity reached 31.66, indicating that the membrane obtained by this method has a certain gas separation ability. CO 2 The lowest permeation rate is because the cis-linked AlO in the CAU-10-H framework 6 polyhedra and the defect sites in the structure and the isophthalic acid ligands linked to them have a strong adsorption effect on CO 2 resulting in a decrease in its diffusion rate.
