In this article, we report the removal of a reactive dye, viz. sunset yellow, from the aqueous solution using micellar media of two cationic surfactants, viz. cetyltrimethylammonium bromide and ethyl hexadecyldimethyl ammonium bromide (. The values of rejection coefficient (R%) and permeate flux (J) have been calculated using membranes with different pore sizes, viz. 10,000 (10k) molecular weight cutoff (MWCO) and 30,000 (30k) MWCO at 1.5 bar transmembrane pressure. The membrane of 30k MWCO was found to be more suitable in order to retain the dye molecules incorporated in the micelles. 相似文献

Naphthenic acids are naturally occurring organics in produced waters from oil recovery operations. In principle, these contaminants can be removed using micellar-enhanced ultrafiltration (MEUF), which is an effective technique for the removal of organic contaminants from water streams. In this work, we show that the amphiphilic nature of the naphthenic acids contributed to decreasing the critical micelle concentration (CMC) of cetylpyridinium chloride (CPC), a widely used surfactant in MEUF. This reduction in CMC allowed a decrease in the CPC dosage required to attain certain removal of the organics, and hence, improved the performance of traditional MEUF as a result of reducing back contamination and potential fouling of the membrane. The effect of CPC feed concentration, and the concentration and carbon number of the naphthenic acids on permeate flux, recovery ratio and percent rejection of CPC and naphthenic acids were explored over a range of trans-membrane pressure. The MEUF setup employed hydrophilic polyacrylonitrile (PAN) hollow fiber membrane with 13 kDa MWCO, since it allowed for high permeate flux and contaminant rejection. 相似文献

Equilibrium distribution constants, Ks, of phenol between surfactant micelles and water have been determined by micellar enhanced ultrafiltration (MEUF) using commercial ultrafiltering centrifuge tubes. Three surfactants: sodium dodecyl sulphate (SDS), polyoxyethylene 20 cetyl ether (C16E20) and cetylpiridinium chloride (CPC) were tested with a 10 000 molecular weight cut off (MWCO) membrane. Additionally, membranes of 5000 and 30 000 MWCO were used for CPC. A phenomenological mathematical model has been proposed for the batch MEUF process and checked with the experimental permeate or retentate composition. The model is based on two assumptions: monomeric molecules are not rejected by the membrane and the rejection of micelles is independent of the retentate concentration. The measured micelles rejections for different surfactants and the equivalent molecular weight of the micelles are correlated and they are not significantly affected by the addition of phenol. The estimates of Ks for SDS and CPC agree with previously reported values determined by other methods. Ks values for CPC, calculated using 5000, 10 000 and 30 000 MWCO membranes, have not been significantly different. Ks estimate has allowed to predict the phenol permeate concentration measured in continuous tangential MEUF experiments. 相似文献

The ultrafiltration of colloid solutions containing hexadecyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB), sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS), and alkylpolyglucoside (APG) through hydrophilic membranes with a 10,000 mol wt cut-off from regenerated cellulose was studied. The effects of experimental conditions on the permeate flux and secondary resistance were determined. It was found that both CTAB and APG were convenient surfactants for ultrafiltration, as high permeability of their solutions was observed. The secondary resistance was always significantly lower than the resistance of the membrane. Additionally, electrolytes had a relatively weak negative effect upon ultrafiltration fluxes. SDS was the least convenient surfactant due to formation of a gel layer, susceptibility of its colloid solutions to electrolyte content, and a high secondary resistance. The concentration of the surfactant in the permeate could increase above critical micelle concentration, especially under conditions inducing high polarization. Migration of CTAB on the surface of pores seemed responsible for that transfer. 相似文献

Comparison of polysulfone and ceramic membranes for the separation of phenol in micellar-enhanced ultrafiltration 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
Micellar-enhanced ultrafiltration (MEUF) of phenol and a cationic surfactant, cetylpyridinium chloride (CPC), is studied using two polysulfone membranes of 5- and 50-kDa molecular weight cutoff (MWCO) and two ceramic membranes of 15- and 50-kDa MWCO. Filtrations are run under laminar cross-flow and steady-state conditions. The effect of operation variables (pressure and retentate flux) and membrane properties (nature and MWCO) on permeate flux, surfactant, and phenol rejections is analyzed. The permeate flux depends, among other variables, on the fouling favored by membrane-micelle interactions, which are strongest in the 50-kDa MWCO ceramic membrane. On the other hand, surfactant rejection is mainly determined by the pore size and influenced by the pressure for both 50-kDa MWCO membranes. An equilibrium distribution constant, K(s), of phenol between surfactant micelles and water is calculated. Its value is not significantly affected by operation conditions and membrane type. K(s) is also approximately 20% lower than the value determined in a previous work with batch dead-end ultrafiltration. 相似文献

The micellar enhanced ultrafiltration (MEUF) of phenol in synthetic wastewater using two polysulfone spiral membranes of 6- and 10-kDa molecule weight cut-off (MWCO) and cetylpyridinium chloride (CPC) as cationic surfactant was studied. The effects on the permeate flux, permeate and retentate concentrations of phenol and CPC of various factors in the practical application of MEUF were studied, including surfactant and phenol concentrations, retentate flux, operating pressure, temperature and electrolyte. It was found that these two membranes could adsorb free phenol so the concentration of permeate phenol was lower than that of free phenol. The retentate phenol concentration kept increasing, then decreased slightly with the increase of the feed CPC concentration. Retentate flux and temperature had great effect on the performance of MEUF, and operating pressure did not. The addition of sodium carbonate (Na2CO3) could increase the retentate phenol concentration and decrease the permeate concentrations of phenol and CPC significantly. 相似文献

This paper discusses a novel approach for predicting permeate flux decline in constant pressure ultrafiltration of protein solutions. A constant pressure process is assumed to be made up of a large number of small, sequential, constant flux ultrafiltration steps: the flux decreasing due to fouling and other related factors at the end of each step. The advantage of this approach is that constant flux ultrafiltration is easier to study, characterize, and model than constant pressure ultrafiltration. Consequently model parameters can be obtained in reliable and reproducible manner. Constant pressure ultrafiltration is dynamic in nature since both the magnitude of osmotic back-pressure and the extent of membrane fouling decrease as the permeate flux decreases with time. The proposed model takes into consideration the interplay between permeate flux, concentration polarization, and membrane fouling. The model demonstrates that the initial rapid flux decline is due to a combination of concentration polarization and membrane fouling while during the remaining part of the process, the effect of concentration polarization becomes negligible. The model also shows that concentration polarization affects the initial flux decline only at higher transmembrane pressures. This model which was validated using experimental data is conceptually simpler than other available models and easy to use. In addition to its value as a predictive tool it would particularly be useful for deciding appropriate start-up conditions in ultrafiltration processes. 相似文献

Micellar-enhanced ultrafiltration (MEUF), a surfactant-based separation process, is promising in removing multivalent metal ions from aqueous solutions. The micellar-enhanced ultrafiltration of cadmium from aqueous solution was studied in systems of anionic surfactant and mixed anionic/nonionic surfactants. The micelle sizes and zeta potentials were investigated by dynamic light scattering measurements. The effects of feed surfactant concentration, cadmium concentration and the molar ratio of nonionic surfactants to sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) on the cadmium removal efficiency, the rejection of SDS and nonionic surfactants and the permeate flux were investigated. The rejection efficiencies of cadmium in the MEUF operation were enhanced with higher SDS concentration and moderate Cd concentration. When SDS concentration was fixed at 3 mM, the optimal ranges of the molar ratios of nonionic surfactants to SDS for the removal of cadmium were 0.4–0.7 for Brij 35 and 0.5–0.7 for Triton X-100, respectively. With the addition of nonionic surfactants, the SDS dosage and the SDS concentration in the permeate were reduced efficiently. 相似文献

Blend hydrophilic polyamide imide (PAI)-sulfonated poly (ether ether keton) (SPEEK) hollow fiber membranes were fabricated for oil-water emulsion separation. The structure and performance of the membranes were examined by FESEM analysis, N2 permeation, overall porosity, collapsing pressure, water contact angle, pure water flux, molecular weight cutoff (MWCO), and oil rejection tests. By studying ternary phase diagrams of polymer/solvent-additive/water system, the higher phase-inversion rate was confirmed for the solutions prepared at higher PAI/SPEEK ratio. A more open structure with larger finger-likes was observed by increasing PAI/SPEEK ratio. Mean pore size of 81 nm, overall porosity of 79% and water contact angle of 58° were obtained for the improved membrane prepared by PAI/SPEEK ratio of 85/15. Increasing SPEEK ratio resulted in lower mechanical stability in terms of collapsing pressure. Pure water flux of about 2.5 times of the plain PAI membrane was found for the improved membrane. MWCO of 460 kDa was found for the improved blend membrane. From oil rejection test, all the membranes demonstrated an oil rejection of over 95%. The improved membrane showed a lower rate of permeate flux reduction compared to the plain membrane which was related to the smaller fouling possibility. Less fouling resistance of the improved membrane was related to the higher flux recovery ratio (about 92%). For all the membranes, the dominant fouling mechanism was found to be the cake filtration. The improved PAI-SPEEK hollow fiber membranes was found to be practical for ultrafiltration of oily wastewaters. 相似文献

Micellar-enhanced ultrafiltration (MEUF) was used to remove cadmium ions from wastewater efficiently. In this study the nonionic surfactants polyoxyethyleneglycol dodecyl ether (Brij35) and polyoxyethylene octyl phenyl ether (TritonX-100) were for micellar-enhanced ultrafiltration to lower the dosage of the anionic surfactant sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS). The surfactant critical micelle concentration (CMC) and the degree of micelle counterion binding were investigated. The effects of nonionic surfactant addition on the efficiency of cadmium removal, the residual quantities of surfactant, the permeate flux and the secondary membrane resistance were investigated. A comparison between MEUF with SDS and MEUF with mixed anionic–nonionic surfactants was undertaken. The results show that the addition of Brij35 or TritonX-100 reduced the CMC of SDS and the degree of counterion binding for the micelles. Due to these variations the Cd2+ rejection efficiency was at a maximum when the Brij35:SDS and the TritonX-100:SDS molar ratio was 0.5. The Cd2+ rejection efficiency in MEUF with SDS is higher than for MEUF with mixed surfactants when the total dose of surfactant is constant. The permeate flux of MEUF with SDS is higher than that for MEUF with mixed surfactants while the secondary resistance of MEUF with SDS is less than that of MEUF with mixed surfactants. 相似文献

The removal of natural organic matter (NOM) is a critical aspect of potable water treatment because NOM compounds are precursors of harmful disinfection by-products, hence should be removed from water intended for human consumption. Ultrafiltration using ceramic membranes can be a suitable process for removal of natural substances. Previously reported experiments were dedicated to evaluating the suitability of ultrafiltration through ceramic membrane for water treatment with a focus on the separation of natural organic matter. The effects of the membrane operating time and linear flow velocity on transport and separation properties were also examined. The experiments, using a 7-channel 300 kDa MWCO ceramic membrane, were carried out with model solutions and surface water at trans-membrane pressure of 0.2–0.5 MPa. The results revealed that a loose UF ceramic membrane can successfully eliminate natural organic matter from water. The permeability of the membrane was strongly affected by the composition of the feed stream, i.e. the permeate flux decreased with an increase in the NOM concentration. The permeate flux also decreased over the period of the operation, while this parameter did not influence the effectiveness of separation, i.e. the removal of NOM. It was observed that the increased cross-flow velocity resulted in the decrease in the membrane-fouling intensity and slightly improved the retention of contaminants. 相似文献

Electric field enhanced ultrafiltration of pectin–sucrose mixture (synthetic juice) and mosambi (Citrus sinensis (L.) Osbeck) fruit juice using 50,000 (MWCO) polyerthersulfon membrane is studied in a cross-flow cell. Pectin, completely rejected by the membrane, forms a gel type layer over the membrane surface. Under the application of an external dc electric field across the membrane, gel-layer formation is restricted leading to an enhancement of permeate flux. During ultrafiltration of synthetic juice, application of dc electric field (800 V/m) increases the permeate flux to almost threefold compared to that with zero electric field. A theoretical model based on integral method assuming suitable concentration profile in the boundary layer is developed. The proposed model is used to predict the permeate flux in gel-layer governed electric field enhanced ultrafiltration. Predictions of the model are successfully compared with the experimental results under a wide range of operating conditions. Experiments with fruit juice also demonstrated significant increase in flux with the application of a suitable electric field. 相似文献

A theoretical model has been developed that describes ultrafiltration of nonionic surfactants. The model takes into account the fact that surfactants start to aggregate and form micelles at the critical micelle concentration. The model can be used to predict the performance of the membrane if the transport properties inside and at the membrane surface as well as the surfactant association behavior, are known. Three hydrophilic ultrafiltration membranes, made of regenerated cellulose, were used in the investigation. The cut-offs of the membranes were 10,000, 20,000, and 30,000 Da. The surfactant used in the investigation was the nonionic surfactant Triton X-100. The influence of the concentration of surfactant, transmembrane pressure and pure water flux were studied theoretically and experimentally. From the results presented in this work it can be concluded that the calculated values are in good agreement with experimental data. 相似文献

The ultrafiltration of two types of surfactants, sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS, anionic) and Tergitol NP-9 (nonylphenol polyethylene glycol ether, nonionic), using a 20 nm ZrO2 tubular membrane was investigated. The influence of crossflow velocity, temperature, pressure, and surfactant concentration on the permeate flux, close to and above the critical micelle concentration (CMC), is reported. Permeate flux and surfactant retention were measured in order to evaluate concentration polarization and fouling phenomena, and also the variation of these parameters due to surfactant/membrane interactions. High surfactant retentions (60–70%) were achieved depending on the feed concentration. 相似文献

Membrane process has increasingly developed as a reliable and effective means of improving product yield and reducing manufacturing costs in the reactive dye industry. In order to improve a product's quality, ultrafiltration (UF) membrane has been applied to perform Reactive Brilliant Blue KN-R desalting and concentration. The performance of this membrane's separation process was evaluated under different operating conditions, through which the influence of operating pressure, temperature, cross-flow velocity, pH, concentration of feed and operating time on permeate flux, rejection of Reactive Brilliant Blue KN-R and sodium sulfate were studied. 相似文献

The effect of the choice of the standard probabilistic model to describe the pore size distribution was theoretically studied on predicting membrane performance parameters, area average water flux and area average membrane sieving coefficient. Preliminary discrete pore size distributions were generated from rejection profiles of dextran and PEG for 10,000, 30,000 and 100,000 molecular weight cutoff (MWCO) polysulfone and cellulose acetate membranes. The standard probability distribution functions (PDF), gamma, lognormal, normal, Weibel and Rayleigh were used to fit the resulting pore size distribution data. It was observed that the area averaged sieving coefficients are sensitive to the choice of the PDF. These results implied that an uncertainty in the choice of distribution in describing the membrane morphology could lead to a propagated uncertainty in predicting overall membrane performance. 相似文献

This study investigated the ultrafiltration of soybean oil/hexane extract (miscella) using porous ceramic membrane. The evaporation energy can be saved in the soybean oil production by pre-separating a portion of hexane through the ceramic membrane. Raw soybean oil/hexane extract with 33 wt% of oil was used without pretreatment. A cross-flow ultrafiltration was performed using an anodisc membrane with a pore diameter of 0.02 μm and thickness of ∼1 μm. The concentrations of oil/hexane mixture were measured by UV adsorption at a wavelength of 458 nm. The separation mechanism was suggested to be the hindrance diffusion of soybean oil. Agitation in the feed side significantly increased the rejection of soybean oil. A small stage cut could also yield a higher rejection. Above observations were attributed to the reduction of concentration polarization by increasing the shear rate and small permeate flux, respectively. The optimum separation was achieved under the conditions of 4 kg/cm2 transmembrane pressure, 0.04 stage cut and 120 rpm agitation speed. The concentration of soybean oil decreased from 33 wt% of feed to 27 wt% in permeate, that is, near 20% rejection. A gel-layer polarization model was proposed to estimate the gel concentration and thickness. The gel concentration was found 43–53 wt%. Agitating feed side reduced gel thickness, thus enhanced the rejection and permeate flux. 相似文献

A mass transfer model in case of ultrafiltration is proposed in the present study which is capable of predicting the permeate volumetric flux and rejection at different pressure, concentration and stirrer speed. The model is based on the steady state mass balance over the boundary layer, coupled with the results from irreversible thermodynamics. It first predicts the membrane surface and permeate concentrations — which are then utilized to calculate rejection. Permeate flux is then predicted using the result obtained from filtration theory. The model utilizes four parameters, namely, solvent permeability, solute permeability, reflection coefficient and specific cake resistance. These parameters along with the known values of the operating conditions and solution properties enable one to predict the flux as a function of time and rejection. The computed results are found to be in good agreement with the previously published data of Bhattacharjee and Bhattacharya during ultrafiltration of PEG-6000 by cellulose acetate membrane. 相似文献

A dilute aqueous solution of polydisperse neutral dextrans was used to determine the sieving properties (flux and rejection) of porous polyacrylonitrile membranes. Gel ermeation chromatography was used to measure the solute mole and concentration in the permeate. From these data, rejection coefficients were calculated as a function of solute molecular size. A mathematical model was then developed to relate the flux and solute rejection to pore size distribution and the total number of pores, based upon the assumption that solute rejection was the result of purely geometric considerations. As a first approximation, a solute molecule was considered either too large to enter a membrane pore, or if it entered, its concentration in the permeate from that pore, as well as the solvent flux through the pore, were not affected. This model also considered the effects of steric hindrance and hydrodynamic lag on the convection of solute through a membrane. The shape and sharpness of pore size distributions were found to be useful in comparisons of ultrafiltration membranes. 相似文献
