Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to a chemical washing method for a filter membrane, and particularly to a chemical washing method for a reverse osmosis membrane. Background Art

[0002] When a reverse osmosis membrane is working properly, it is under high pressure for a long time to intercept larger molecules and particles, thereby reducing the impurity concentration in water. As the operation time increases, the solute concentration near the membrane surface gradually increases, and the phenomenon of concentration polarization intensifies, resulting in problems such as a decrease in water production and desalination rate, which affects the performance of the reverse osmosis membrane. Reverse osmosis membranes are widely used in mine water treatment systems. Generally, after about two months of operation, the water output of the reverse osmosis membrane will be reduced to 1 / 3 of that of a newly replaced membrane, and the blockage is relatively serious. In order to restore the water permeability and desalination performance of the reverse osmosis membrane, there are two common methods. One method is to replace the reverse osmosis membrane as a whole. Generally, the reverse osmosis membrane is replaced every six months. Replacing the reverse osmosis membrane can effectively restore the operation efficiency of the water treatment system, but due to frequent membrane replacement, the production cost is significantly increased, so it is generally not adopted. The second is to chemically clean the reverse osmosis membrane regularly. This method is simple to operate and has a low cost, and is widely used.

[0003] The thickness of the reverse osmosis membrane is usually in the micron range, and the pore diameter is generally between 0.0003 - 0.015 μm. Its structure is relatively fragile, and the cleaning process often also damages the reverse osmosis membrane. Especially when using chemical agents for cleaning, it is easy to reduce the service life of the membrane. The cleaning effect of the reverse osmosis membrane can be measured by the water output and desalination rate. When the water output of the reverse osmosis membrane decreases significantly, it generally indicates that there is a situation of pollutant blockage and the reverse osmosis membrane has not been sufficiently cleaned; when the desalination rate decreases significantly, it generally indicates that the structure of the reverse osmosis membrane is damaged and the filtration effect becomes poor. For the cleaning of reverse osmosis membranes, there are already some publicly available technologies, and the manufacturers of reverse osmosis membranes will also provide technical support for cleaning. However, these methods generally have problems such as insufficient cleaning effect, or sufficient cleaning effect but too much damage to the structure of the reverse osmosis membrane, and cannot achieve effective protective cleaning of the reverse osmosis membrane.

[0052] In addition to the purposes, features and advantages described above, the present invention has other purposes, features and advantages. The present invention will be further described in detail below. Specific embodiments

[0053] In order to make the purposes, solutions and beneficial technologies of the present invention clearer, the present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to embodiments. It should be noted that the embodiments described in this specification are only for explaining the present invention and not for limiting the present invention.

[0054] For the sake of simplicity, only some numerical ranges are explicitly disclosed herein. However, any lower limit can be combined with any upper limit to form a range not explicitly recited; and any lower limit can be combined with other lower limits to form a range not explicitly recited, and similarly any upper limit can be combined with any other upper limit to form a range not explicitly recited. In addition, although not explicitly recited, each point or single value between the range endpoints is included in the range. Thus, each point or single value can be used as its own lower or upper limit and combined with any other point or single value or combined with other lower or upper limits to form a range not explicitly recited.

[0055] In the description herein, it should be noted that unless otherwise specified, "above" and "below" include this number, the "multiple" in "one or more" means two or more, and the "multiple" in "one or more" means two or more.

[0056] The embodiment of the present invention provides a chemical washing method for a reverse osmosis membrane for treating mine water, including neutral reduction complex washing, acid washing and alkaline slow flushing; the processes of the neutral reduction complex washing, acid washing and alkaline slow flushing respectively include: detergent circulating washing, detergent soaking and clean water rinsing;

[0057] The detergent for the neutral reduction complex washing is water-based and includes alcohol, chelate, reducing agent and surfactant; in the detergent for the neutral reduction complex washing, the concentration of alcohol is 2 wt% to 10 wt%, the concentration of chelate is 0.1 wt% to 1 wt%, the concentration of reducing agent is 0.05 wt% to 0.5 wt%, and the concentration of surfactant is 0.1 wt% to 1 wt%;

[0058] The acid-washing detergent is water-based, with a pH value of 1.5 to 2.0, and also includes a surfactant and a scale inhibitor; in the acid-washing detergent, the concentration of the surfactant is 0.1 wt% to 1 wt%, and the concentration of the scale inhibitor is 0.3 wt% to 2 wt%.

[0059] The alkaline slow-rinse detergent is water-based, with a pH value of 11 to 12, and also includes a surfactant and a scale inhibitor; in the alkaline slow-rinse detergent, the concentration of the surfactant is 0.1 wt% to 1 wt%, and the concentration of the scale inhibitor is 0.3 wt% to 2 wt%.

[0060] The performance attenuation of the reverse osmosis membrane for treating mine water is mainly due to the following reasons: (1) Inorganic pollutants, mainly manifested as carbonate deposition and scaling, non-carbonate precipitation and scaling, and iron, aluminum, and silica colloid substances; (2) Organic pollutants, mainly humic acid, protein, and polysaccharide substances; Biological pollutants, mainly the reproduction of microorganisms and their metabolites. Under normal operating conditions, the reverse osmosis membrane may be contaminated or blocked by these substances. These substances deposited on the membrane surface will cause a decrease in the permeation rate and a reduction in the salt rejection rate of the reverse osmosis membrane.

[0061] For the various pollutants involved, the embodiments of the present invention adopt a combined washing method of neutral reduction complexing washing, acid washing, and alkaline slow rinsing, making full use of the synergistic effect between the agents to achieve an efficient washing effect. Adding a scale inhibitor in acid washing and alkaline washing can prevent impurities in the washing process from causing secondary pollution to the reverse osmosis membrane. Generally speaking, the combined washing also means an increase in the total cleaning time and frequency, and a longer process of damaging the membrane structure, which often reduces the service life of the membrane.
