Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of hollow fiber composite membranes, and more specifically, to a multi-directional coating system for a hollow fiber composite membrane component. Background Art
[0002] Membrane separation technology is a technology that uses a separation membrane with selective permeability as its core. It screens different molecules or substances through the membrane, allowing certain components in the raw materials to selectively pass through the membrane, thereby achieving mixture separation and product concentration, purification, and purification. It has the characteristics of strong selectivity, simple operation process, wide application range, and low energy consumption. It can be widely used in gas separation fields such as carbon dioxide capture and helium separation.
[0003] A membrane assembly is a device in which a membrane of a certain area is assembled in a certain form. It is the core component of a membrane separation device. The membrane assembly consists of a separation membrane, a support body for fixing the membrane, a spacer, and a container. It is the main place where the membrane separation process is carried out. Hollow fiber membrane modules are composed of multiple fiber filaments with a hollow inner cavity that are cast and assembled. They have the characteristics of high packing density per unit volume, large filtration area, small footprint, and high mechanical strength. The membrane filaments are self-supporting and can easily meet the industrial application requirements of gas membrane separation technology. In order to enhance the separation performance of hollow fiber membrane modules, a layer of high-permeability polymer dense coating is usually coated on the surface of the hollow fiber membrane filaments to obtain a composite membrane. While maintaining the permeability of the original hollow fiber membrane, the resulting polymer dense coating has selective permeability, which can achieve selective separation of the target components.
[0004] The pore size of the hollow fiber membrane is small. After coating a single membrane filament, multiple membrane filaments are cast and assembled into an outer shell. The preparation process of the hollow fiber membrane assembly is relatively complicated and inefficient. There is also a lack of devices or equipment that can achieve large-scale overall coating of large-sized hollow fiber membrane assemblies, making it difficult to achieve large-scale production of hollow fiber composite membrane assemblies.

[0029] When coating the hollow fiber membrane assembly 10 under positive pressure, the hollow fiber membrane assembly 10 can be coated from top to bottom or from bottom to top.
[0030] When coating the hollow fiber membrane assembly 10 from top to bottom, the casting liquid enters the positive pressure line 30 through the main inlet line 20, enters the top of the hollow fiber membrane assembly 10 along the first input line 50, flows from top to bottom in the hollow fiber membrane assembly 10 to coat, and flows out from the first output line 60 provided at the bottom of the hollow fiber membrane assembly 10 to enter the recovery device 14; during this process, the second input line 70 and the second output line 80 are in a closed state;

It is then recovered to the recoverer 14 through the first output pipeline 60 connected to the bottom of the hollow fiber membrane module 10 and provided with the first liquid recovery valve 12. During this process, it and the valve and solution pump 5 are in a closed state;
[0042] Specifically, under negative pressure conditions, when coating the hollow fiber membrane assembly 10 from bottom to top:
[0043] Open the vacuum bypass valve 6, the lower liquid inlet valve 11, the second liquid recovery valve 13 and the vacuum pump 15 to generate a negative pressure in the system (10-90 kPa, vacuum degree).

[0045] The other end of the top pipeline 120 is connected to the first input pipeline 50 and the second output pipeline 80 respectively; the end of the top pipeline 120 away from the hollow fiber membrane module 10 is externally connected to a vent valve 9; the first input pipeline 50, the second output pipeline 80, and the vent valve 9 are connected to the top pipeline 120 via a four-way joint; the provision of the vent valve 9 facilitates the emptying of excess coating liquid in the hollow fiber composite membrane module after coating is completed;
[0046] The utility model can effectively drive the casting liquid through the system pressure to completely infiltrate the hollow fiber membrane in the membrane assembly and maintain the coating in the hollow fiber membrane for 10 to 30 seconds;
[0047] After the coating is completed, open the drain valve 9 and the first liquid recovery valve 12, close the solution pump 5 or the vacuum pump 15, the upper liquid inlet valve 8, the lower liquid inlet valve 11, and the second liquid recovery valve 13, and the excess casting liquid in the hollow fiber membrane assembly 10 can enter the recovery device 14 under the drive of gravity or the opening of the vacuum pump 15, so as to realize the cleaning of the interior of the hollow fiber membrane assembly 10 and the recovery of the remaining solution; after the coating is completed, a hollow fiber composite membrane assembly with a high permeability selective layer thickness in the range of 100 to 200 nm can be obtained for subsequent processing and application.
[0048] In some possible implementations, a breathing valve 1 is installed in the casting liquid container 2;
[0049] Specifically, the bottom of the breathing valve 1 is not in contact with the casting liquid in the casting liquid container 2; when the membrane assembly is coated, the casting liquid in the casting liquid container 2 decreases, and a slight negative pressure is present in the casting liquid container; when the casting liquid is recycled, the solution in the casting liquid container 2 increases, and a slight positive pressure is present in the casting liquid container 2;
[0050] The setting of the breathing valve 1 can balance the pressure changes caused by the increase or decrease of the solution in the casting liquid container 2. Compared with the setting of the vent hole in the prior art, the setting of the breathing valve 1 can also reduce the evaporation loss of the casting liquid in the casting liquid container 2.
