Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the field of electrochemical polymerization technology, and more specifically, to an electrochemical polymerization device for depositing a conductive forward osmosis membrane base film. Background Art

[0002] Compared with the electrochemical coupling of non-conductive forward osmosis membrane and electrochemical coupling, the prepared conductive forward osmosis membrane is directly used as cathode or anode, which not only has the advantages of making the device compact and easy to handle and build, but also the feed liquid will greatly reduce the mass transfer resistance between pollutants and electrodes. The preparation of conductive forward osmosis membrane can be roughly divided into the following methods: through the conductive modification of the cortex. Most of the conductive modification of the cortex is to coat the polyamide layer with conductive materials for modification, but the biggest disadvantage of this coating method is that the uniformity is limited, which greatly weakens the conductive performance of the composite membrane. Another way is to modify the conductivity of the support layer by coating the support layer with conductive materials. However, this method of preparing the conductive layer by coating also faces fatal problems of uniformity and conductivity. For example, the existing Chinese patent CN112473372B proposes a method of depositing a two-dimensional material MXene on a polymer membrane support layer by vacuum filtration, and then preparing a conductive forward osmosis membrane by interfacial polymerization. However, the conductive base membrane obtained in this way is easy to lose its conductive material. In long-term operation, due to the loss of conductive additives, the membrane performance gradually decreases. In addition, the support layer is a non-conductive material with a relatively high resistivity, which also affects the performance of the membrane. Therefore, there is a need for an electrochemical polymerization device for depositing a conductive forward osmosis membrane base membrane that can stably deposit conductive materials on a forward osmosis base membrane and obtain a conductive base membrane with good conductivity and stability. Summary of the invention
