Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of osmotic membrane preparation, in particular to a preparation method of a bacterial cellulose-based modified forward osmosis membrane and application thereof. Background Art

[0002] Membrane separation technology uses the selective permeability of natural or synthetic membranes to separate, grade, purify and other operations on different components in liquids. This process depends on the membrane characteristics, its pore size and the applied pressure difference. It can be applied to the separation of different substances according to the different membrane pore sizes. Forward osmosis (FO) technology is a membrane separation technology based on the osmotic pressure difference on both sides of the membrane as the driving force, which is different from traditional membrane technology. In this process, water molecules spontaneously migrate from the low osmotic pressure feed liquid (FS) to the high osmotic pressure draw liquid (DS) through the semipermeable membrane. There is no need to apply external pressure to drive the concentration process, so the energy consumption and cost are relatively low. In addition, since the osmotic pressure difference of FO itself can bring a greater driving force than other general pressure-driven membrane concentration processes, it has the advantage of producing high-concentration concentrates. FO can also be carried out at room temperature and atmospheric pressure, and shows a lower tendency to membrane fouling than pressure-driven membranes. Therefore, the FO process is increasingly used in seawater desalination, heavy metal concentration and recovery, drinking water preparation, seawater desalination, wastewater treatment and food processing.

[0003] A traditional method for preparing forward osmosis membranes. The manufacture of separation membranes relies on petrochemical-based polymers. In addition, the production of these membranes usually consumes a large amount of organic solvents. Therefore, traditional FO membranes rely on petroleum-based polymers (such as polyamide and polysulfone), which have two major defects:

[0004] During the use phase, 0.1-5μm microplastics are released, which harm human health through bioaccumulation;

[0005] The manufacturing process requires a large amount of organic solvents (such as NMP), which is not in line with the principles of green chemistry.

[0006] Therefore, there is an increasing need to develop a green and sustainable forward osmosis membrane manufacturing process to reduce the harm to the environment and human body. Summary of the invention

[0038] It is easy to understand that according to the technical solution of the present invention, without changing the essential spirit of the present invention, a person skilled in the art can propose mutually replaceable implementation methods. Therefore, the following specific implementation methods are only exemplary descriptions of the technical solution of the present invention, and should not be regarded as the whole of the present invention or as a limitation or restriction to the technical solution of the present invention.

[0039] The present invention provides a method for preparing a bacterial cellulose-based modified forward osmosis membrane, such as Figure 1 and 8 As shown, the following steps are included:

[0040] S1, inoculating the activated bacterial strain into a seed culture medium for cultivation to obtain a seed solution, and inoculating the seed solution into a fermentation culture medium for fermentation to obtain a bacterial cellulose membrane;

[0041] Specifically, the bacterial species include Acetobacter xylinum or Komagata xylosus;

[0042] The composition of the seed culture medium includes: glucose 20 - 40 g / L, yeast extract powder 5 - 10 g / L, peptone 5 - 19 g / L, citric acid 1 - 3 g / L, disodium hydrogen phosphate 1 - 3 g / L, magnesium sulfate 0.5 - 3 g / L, and potassium dihydrogen phosphate 0.5 - 3 g / L, with a pH value of 5.0 ± 0.5; the seed culture medium is autoclaved at 121 °C for 15 - 20 min before use;

[0043] The composition of the fermentation culture medium includes: glucose 25 - 40 g / L, yeast extract powder 5 - 15 g / L, peptone 5 - 15 g / L, citric acid 1 - 3 g / L, disodium hydrogen phosphate 1 - 3 g / L, magnesium sulfate 0.5 - 3 g / L, and potassium dihydrogen phosphate 0.5 - 3 g / L, with a pH value of 5.0 ± 0.5; the fermentation culture medium is autoclaved at 121 °C for 15 - 20 min before use; the process conditions for culturing the fermentation culture medium include an inoculation amount of 2% - 3% v / v, a culture method of first dynamic fermentation and then static fermentation, a culture temperature of 30 °C, and a culture time of 5 days. The dynamic fermentation conditions are: dynamic fermentation at a rotation speed of 220 rpm for 3 h and then transfer to static fermentation; the static fermentation conditions are: a fermentation temperature of 30 °C and a fermentation time of 5 days. The mode of first dynamic fermentation and then static fermentation (dynamic / static combination) can effectively increase the yield of bacterial cellulose while obtaining a flat and membranous bacterial cellulose membrane.

[0044] S2. Wash, purify, and dry the bacterial cellulose membrane obtained in S1;

[0045] Specifically, the washing includes: washing the bacterial cellulose membrane with running water for 24 h until there are no impurities and culture medium on the surface;

[0046] The purification includes: treating with 0.1 - 0.5 mol / L NaOH solution at a temperature of 85 - 90 °C for 1 hour to obtain a milky white bacterial cellulose membrane, and then rinsing with deionized water until the pH reaches neutral;

[0047] The drying includes: hot air drying at 60 °C for 48 h.

[0048] After washing and purifying the fermented bacterial cellulose membrane, hot air drying is used to replace the commonly used freeze drying, reducing the manufacturing cost of the separation membrane and reducing the waste of energy efficiency.

[0049] S3. Carry out a co - deposition reaction on the bacterial cellulose membrane treated in S2 with chitosan and tannic acid in an aqueous solution system;

[0050] Specifically, the mass fraction of the chitosan addition amount in the co - deposition is 0.1%, the mass fraction of the tannic acid addition amount is 0.2%, the aqueous solution system is acetic acid - sodium acetate solution; the temperature of the co - deposition reaction is room temperature (25 ± 2 °C), and the co - deposition time is 1 h.

[0051] S4. Take out the bacterial cellulose membrane obtained after the co - deposition reaction in S3, wash it and then dry it to obtain a bacterial cellulose membrane with a chitosan and tannic acid intermediate layer.

[0052] Specifically, the drying is carried out by hot - air drying at 60 °C for 24 h.

[0053] In the co - deposition reaction, the amino - rich chitosan (CS) molecules can interact with the hydroxyl and carboxyl groups of tannic acid (TA) to form a CS / TA complex with strong hydrophilicity. Therefore, the introduction of the intermediate layer can not only improve the hydrophilicity of the bacterial cellulose - based membrane, but also facilitate the formation of a denser and defect - free active layer.

[0054] S5. Carry out an interfacial polymerization reaction on the bacterial cellulose membrane with a chitosan and tannic acid intermediate layer in S4, and dry it after the reaction to obtain a modified forward osmosis membrane based on bacterial cellulose with an intermediate layer. Specifically, immerse the dried bacterial cellulose membrane with chitosan and tannic acid in an aqueous solution containing an aqueous - phase monomer for interfacial polymerization; take out the infiltrated membrane from the aqueous phase, and use a rubber roller or nitrogen purge to remove the excess aqueous - phase monomer on the surface; immerse the membrane in an organic solvent containing an organic - phase monomer. After the reaction is completed, take out the membrane and carry out heat treatment or water washing to remove the unreacted monomers and by - products, and finally form a forward osmosis membrane with a dense separation layer.

[0055] Specifically, the organic solvent is m - phenylenediamine (MPD) with a mass fraction of 0.2% and trimesoyl chloride (TMC) with a mass fraction of 0.15%. The trimesoyl chloride is dissolved in a hexane solution. The interfacial polymerization reaction conditions include: the bacterial cellulose membrane with an intermediate layer is first immersed in the aqueous phase for 3 min. After using a rubber roller to remove the air bubbles on the membrane surface, immerse it in the oil phase for 1 min.

[0056] The drying is that the immersed bacterial cellulose membrane is hot - air dried at 60 °C for 8 min;

[0057] Using renewable resource bacterial cellulose to prepare the separation membrane greatly avoids the damage to the environment and organisms caused by the use of organic reagents, reduces the cost of manufacturing the separation membrane, and saves energy consumption.

[0058] The present invention also includes S6, specifically, microplastic dissolution. Cut the membrane obtained in S5 into small pieces of 2×2 cm, put them into a beaker containing 100 ml of deionized water, and stir at a speed of 600 rpm at 25 °C for 24 hours. Next, remove the membrane from the aqueous solution, and obtain MPs through a glass microfiber filter with a pore size of 1.2 μm and a diameter of 47 mm. Subsequently, store the filter paper containing MPs in a glass petri dish and dry it in a desiccator until analysis. Immerse the filter paper containing MPs in a 0.01 mg / 1 mL nile red dye solution for 30 minutes to label the MPs. Then observe the samples under a fluorescence microscope equipped with a FITC filter to generate blue light excitation.

[0059] The present invention also provides an application of the bacterial cellulose-based modified forward osmosis membrane in the water treatment process. The bacterial cellulose-based modified forward osmosis membrane includes a support layer and an active layer connected to the support layer, and the active layer is located on one side of the support layer; chitosan and tannic acid are co-deposited on the side of the active layer away from the support layer. The bacterial cellulose-based modified forward osmosis membrane has high surface hydrophilicity and good anti-fouling performance against bovine serum albumin and sodium alginate pollution.

[0060] The pollutants in the simulated water treatment process are bovine serum albumin and sodium alginate. Bovine serum albumin (BSA) is a globulin in bovine serum, containing 607 amino acid residues, with a molecular weight of 66.446 KDa and an isoelectric point of 4.7. BSA is a typical protein, widely present in biological fluids (such as blood, milk) and food processing wastewater. Protein pollution is one of the common pollution types in the membrane separation process. BSA is easily adsorbed on the membrane surface to form a dense pollution layer, simulating the membrane pollution caused by proteins in actual applications. Sodium alginate (SA) Sodium alginate is a natural polysaccharide, widely present in food, medicine, and wastewater treatment. Polysaccharide pollution is another common pollution type in the membrane separation process. Sodium alginate easily forms a gel layer in water, simulating the membrane pollution caused by polysaccharide substances in actual applications.

[0061] By studying the individual and combined fouling behaviors of BSA and SA, the fouling mechanism of the membrane can be more comprehensively understood, and effective anti-fouling strategies can be developed.

[0062] Further conduct long-term experiments on the pollutants of the bacterial cellulose-based modified forward osmosis membrane. Through long-term experiments, the anti-fouling performance of the membrane can be evaluated, and the effectiveness of the cleaning strategy can be verified.

[0063] The anti-fouling performance of the bacterial cellulose-based modified forward osmosis membrane against BSA and SA is improved compared with other forward osmosis membranes. After long-term experiments, after simple in-situ cleaning, the flux recovery rates of BSA and SA can reach more than 90%.

[0085] In the embodiment of the present invention, the water used is preferably pure water (RO water).

[0086] Examples 1 - 2: Permeation Performance and Long - term Fouling Experiments

[0087] Permeation performance:

[0089] Long - term fouling experiment: In a cross - flow filtration system, bovine serum albumin BSA and sodium alginate SA solutions are used as the feed solution. First, the pure water flux (PWF, Jw) of the original bacterial cellulose - based modified forward osmosis membrane is measured for 2 h, and then, with BSA solution (600 mg / L) and SA solution (1 g / L) as the feed solutions, the flux (Jp) is measured at 25 °C for 2 h. After BSA filtration, the membrane is rinsed with deionized water at a flow rate of 22.5 cm / s for 30 min, and the PWF (Jc) of the membrane after cleaning is measured under the same conditions as Jw. The above fouling - cleaning process is repeated 4 times, and the long - term fouling resistance performance of the membrane is evaluated by calculating the flux recovery rate (FRR) of the membrane during the 4 - cycle process. The results of the line graph of bovine serum albumin BSA and sodium alginate SA flux and time are shown Figure 4 and Figure 5 as follows. After the BSA - and SA - fouled membranes are cleaned, the percentage of the water flux restored to the initial flux (Flux Recovery Rate (FRR)) is shown Figure 6 as follows.
