Abstract
Description
TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The application belongs to the field of membrane separation technology, and particularly relates to a semi-interpenetrating network polyamide reverse osmosis membrane with anti-fouling and chlorine resistance performance as well as a preparation method and application thereof. BACKGROUND
[0002] With the intensification of global industrialization, rapid economic development and intensification of climate change, the shortage of fresh water resources has become a global problem. Reverse osmosis technology, as an energy-saving, environmentally friendly and efficient seawater desalination and brackish water desalination technology, shows good market application prospects. The long-term stability of the reverse osmosis membrane as the core component of the technology is crucial to the normal operation of the membrane water treatment system.
[0003] In actual seawater desalination processes, non-specific or specific adsorption of suspended particles, colloids and microorganisms in the feed liquid on the membrane surface leads to serious membrane fouling problems, which can cause membrane pore blockage, thus reducing the separation performance of the membrane, increasing the operating pressure, increasing the maintenance cost and shortening the service life, and seriously limiting the long-term development of the membrane material. According to the types of pollutants in the feed liquid, the pollution is divided into inorganic, organic and microbial pollution. For the former, an acid-base cleaning process is usually used; for the latter, the water body is usually sterilized and pre-disinfected in engineering applications, and the chlorine-containing sterilizing agent has a significant sterilization performance. However, through the pre-chlorination of raw water, the sterilizing agent may still have a certain residue in the feed water body, and the chlorine resistance of most commercial reverse osmosis membranes is poor, and the aromatic ring and amide nitrogen in the separation layer will be quickly attacked by chlorine, resulting in a sharp decline in the performance of the reverse osmosis membrane.
[0004] Due to the inherent characteristics of polyamide materials, the current mainstream commercial reverse osmosis membranes cannot fundamentally solve the oxidation problem of the membrane material. Therefore, in order to meet the more extensive separation requirements and reduce the production cost, it has become a technical problem to be solved in the field to improve the separation capacity, chlorine resistance and anti-pollution performance of the polyamide reverse osmosis membrane.

[0082] The following quantitative experiment is set up with three repetitions, and the average value is taken.

[0084]
[0085] Table 2: X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) depth profiling analysis results of RO-R-PEG750
[0086]
[0087] The prepared semi-IPN polyamide RO membranes were analyzed by SEM analysis Figure 3 ), XPS analysis (Table 1-2), solid surface zeta potential analyzer analysis Figure 4 ), and WCA analysis Figure 5 ). In addition, by reversing the polyamide layer structure, the surface function of the membrane can be maximized.
[0088] Example 2: Analysis of separation selectivity performance
[0089] The semi-IPN polyamide RO membranes prepared in Examples 1-3 were tested for water flux and sodium chloride rejection. In a custom-made cross-flow filtration device, the test samples were pre-pressurized with pure water at 8 bar for 1 hour until the water flux was stable. Then, under a test pressure of 6 bar, pure water was used as the feed liquid, and the pure water flux of the membrane was recorded. At the same time, a 2000 ppm NaCl solution was used as the feed liquid, and the concentrations of inorganic salts in the feed liquid and the permeate were recorded during the test to calculate the corresponding rejection rate of the membrane, as shown in Table 3. Figure 6
[0090] Example 3: Analysis of antibacterial performance
[0091] The semi-IPN polyamide RO membranes prepared in Examples 1-3 were tested for antibacterial performance, with Gram-negative Escherichia coli as the model bacteria to evaluate the antibacterial activity of the prepared semi-IPN polyamide RO membranes. Figure 7 The distribution of bacteria on the membrane surface after paper disc diffusion was shown, and the results showed that compared with RO-R-MPD, RO-R-PEG750 formed a clear antibacterial ring. Further SEM analysis of the RO-R-MPD and RO-R-PEG750 membrane surfaces showed that the RO-R-MPD membrane surface was covered with colonies, while the RO-R-PEG750 membrane surface had no bacterial colonies attached, indicating that the introduction of PEG network could effectively prevent bacterial adsorption and deposition on the membrane surface.
[0092] Example 4: Analysis of anti-adhesion performance
[0093] Dynamic cyclic anti-fouling experiments were performed on the semi-IPN polyamide reverse osmosis membranes prepared in Examples 1-3. In a custom-made dead-end filtration device, the test samples were pre-pressurized with pure water at 8 bar for more than 1 hour until the water flux was stable. Subsequently, under a test pressure of 6 bar, the pure water flux (JW1) of the membranes was recorded while using pure water as the feed. To better simulate seawater, 50 ppm humic acid (HA), 1000 ppm bovine serum albumin (BSA), and 50 ppm E. coli were introduced into the feed as representative contaminants under a fixed stirring speed of 500 rpm, and the permeate flux (JW2) was recorded every 15 minutes for 5 hours of continuous filtration. After the 5-hour test, the membranes were cleaned with deionized water until the permeation performance was stable, and the permeate flux (JW3) was recorded to evaluate the recovery of water flux and the anti-fouling performance. After about 24 hours of continuous testing, the results showed that the semi-IPN polyamide reverse osmosis membranes maintained a water flux recovery rate of more than 95% in each cycle, which was significantly better than the RO-R-MPD membrane (58.82%). Figure 8
[0094] Effect Example 5: Long-term anti-chlorine performance test
[0095] Long-term anti-chlorine performance tests were performed on the semi-IPN polyamide reverse osmosis membranes prepared in Examples 1-3. In a custom-made cross-flow device, the test samples were pre-pressurized with pure water at 8 bar for more than 1 hour until the water flux was stable. Subsequently, under a test pressure of 6 bar, the pure water flux and desalination rate of the membranes were recorded while using pure water as the feed under conditions containing 2000 ppm sodium chloride. Static chlorine experiments were performed on the RO-R-MPD and RO-R-PEG750 membranes using an active chlorine solution of sodium hypochlorite with an initial concentration of 50 ppm, and the pH value was adjusted as needed, and the solution was replaced every 24 hours. After the membrane pieces were soaked in the solution for a certain period of time, they were washed with deionized water and then tested for their basic separation selectivity performance. The test results showed that the rejection rate of sodium chloride of the RO-R-MPD membrane significantly decreased in different pH sodium hypochlorite solutions under a cumulative contact of 8000 ppm·h of chlorine conditions, indicating that the polyamide active layer had been completely destroyed. In contrast, the RO-R-PEG750 membrane still maintained a rejection rate of more than 90% for sodium chloride under the same conditions, showing its excellent anti-chlorine performance. Figure 9
[0096] Effect Example 6: Seawater desalination capacity analysis
[0097] The semi-interpenetrating network polyamide reverse osmosis membranes prepared by Examples 1-3 were further evaluated for their purification ability of seawater. The experimental water was taken from Qingdao Jiaozhou Bay (near the Yellow Sea). After the seawater was collected, it was first pre-filtered by 0.7 μm glass fiber filter paper to remove suspended particles. In a custom-made cross-flow filtration device, the pretreated seawater was used as the feed liquid, and the test membrane samples were pre-pressurized in pure water at 8 bar for more than 1 hour until the water flux was stable. Subsequently, the initial water flux was recorded at a test pressure of 6 bar, and the permeation flux was recorded every 24 hours for 14 days to evaluate the separation stability of the semi-interpenetrating network polyamide reverse osmosis membrane. The results show that Figure 10 ), the UV absorbance at 254 nm was reduced from 0.2956 cm -1 -1to 0.0051 cm -1 -1, with a purification efficiency of more than 98%, indicating that the semi-interpenetrating network polyamide reverse osmosis membrane has application potential in efficient and sustainable separation processes such as seawater desalination.
