Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of membrane technology, and in particular to a method for determining the concentration of micropollutants in the membrane on the inlet side during the mass transfer of micropollutants across a nanofiltration membrane. Background Technology

[0002] Nanofiltration membrane treatment technology has shown significant development potential in the field of micropollutant water treatment due to its advantages such as stable operation, low energy consumption, and no toxic byproduct generation. However, due to the wide variety and complex structure of micropollutants, existing nanofiltration technologies are not effective in removing some micropollutants. The transmembrane mass transfer process of micropollutants is affected not only by molecular size (steric hindrance effect) and charge properties (Downan effect), but also by hydrogen bonds, van der Waals forces, and other factors between the solute and the membrane. Complex non-electrostatic interactions, such as those between the membrane and the micro-pollutant membrane, also have a crucial impact. However, the widely used Dornan stereopore model (DSPM) and its modified models still lack a comprehensive description of these non-electrostatic interactions. This limitation leads to inaccurate calculations of micro-pollutant concentrations within the membrane, hindering further analysis of the transmembrane mass transfer mechanism of micro-pollutants and restricting the targeted design and control of the structure and function of next-generation nanofiltration membranes.

[0003] To address the aforementioned issues, there is an urgent need to develop a novel, efficient, and accurate method for quantifying the effects of non-electrostatic interactions, accurately calculating the intramembrane concentration of micropollutants during transmembrane mass transfer, and thus deepening our understanding of the transmembrane behavior of micropollutants. While existing studies have attempted to incorporate the potential impact of non-electrostatic interactions by modifying or supplementing parameters, most rely on time-consuming and complex experimental measurements for estimation. The quantitative correlations established by these methods are often limited to specific systems, restricting their application. Therefore, it is necessary to develop a general method that combines experimental measurements with mass transfer model calculations, directly correlating readily available membrane characteristic parameters with non-electrostatic partition coefficients, thereby quantitatively characterizing membrane-solute non-electrostatic interactions. This method is expected to overcome the limitations of existing models and provide a new tool for in-depth analysis of the mass transfer mechanism of micropollutants. Summary of the Invention

[0031] The calculated concentration of micropollutants on the inlet side of the membrane, considering non-electrostatic interactions, was compared with the calculated value obtained through step S3 based on the cross-flow filtration experimental results to verify the accuracy of the method. For comparison, the membrane concentration without considering non-electrostatic interactions was calculated using the same approach. Similarly, the calculated value obtained through step S3 based on the cross-flow filtering experiment results is compared with the calculated value obtained through step S3. The closer the ratio of the directly calculated value from the model to the calculated value obtained through step S3 based on the cross-flow filtering experiment results is to 1, the more accurate the model's calculation effect. The results are as follows... Figure 6 As shown, based on the numerical relationship obtained in step S4, the non-electrostatic partition coefficients of the NF270 nanofiltration membrane and five micropollutants were determined by the membrane saturation adsorption capacity. After incorporating these partition coefficients into the model calculation, the accuracy of the prediction of micropollutant concentrations on the inlet side of the membrane was significantly improved compared with the case where non-electrostatic interactions were not considered, thus verifying the reliability and universality of the method.
