The formation of deposit on the membrane surface (fouling) is one of the major operating problems of membrane distillation process. The influence of fouling on the performance of this process was investigated during the concentration of wastewater with proteins, bilge water, brines, and the production of demineralized water. The experiments were performed with polypropylene capillary membranes. The morphology and composition of the fouling layer were studied using Fourier transform infrared with diffuse reflectance spectroscopy and scanning electron microscopy coupled with the energy dispersing spectrometry. Fouling with various intensity was observed in most of the studied cases. Permeate flux decline was mainly caused by an increase in the heat resistance of the fouling layer. However in the case of non-porous deposit, a magnitude of the permeate flux was also determined by a resistance of water transport through the deposit layer. It was found the deposits were formed not only on the membrane surface, but also inside the pores. Salt crystallization in the membrane pores besides their wetting, also caused the mechanical damage of the membrane structure. The intensity of the fouling can be limited by the pretreatment of feed and a selection of the operating conditions of membrane distillation. 相似文献

The aim of this work is the development of a transport model for a direct contact membrane distillation process in laminar flow that allows knowing the velocity and temperature profiles within the flow channels as a function of externally measured temperatures just at the entrances and exits of the flow channels in the membrane module. The second aim is to apply this model to a conventional membrane module, and so calculate the difference between the bulk temperatures and the externally measured ones. For the system studied here, moderately important differences between both temperatures have been obtained when working at low flow rates and high temperatures. It can be concluded from the trends observed in this study that an estimation of this temperature difference has to be made before considering the bulk temperature as equal to the externally measured temperature, above all, in those systems where the thermal boundary layers represent an important portion of the flow channels height, and important temperature drops exist through them. 相似文献

This study applies direct contact membrane distillation (DCMD) to concentrating the extract of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM). The trans-membrane flux under various operation conditions was measured in real-time during concentration process. By decoupling the factors affecting the trans-membrane flux decline, it was found that the observed flux decline throughout the process could be attributed to the membrane fouling, the reduction of water vapor pressure and the increase of transport resistance at feed side. Analysis of the combined factors was given to show in detail the mechanism of flux decline. Factors that may affect the flux level, such as feed velocity, feed temperature and pretreatment were experimentally examined. Gas bubbling or sparging was introduced into DCMD system for reducing membrane fouling, and it was found that both gas–liquid two-phase flow at the feed side and gas back-washing within membrane module are effective ways to control membrane fouling. 相似文献

Theoretical modeling and experimental analysis of direct contact membrane distillation 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
A two-dimensional mathematical model was theoretically developed to predict the temperature polarization profile of direct contact membrane distillation (DCMD) processes. A concurrent flat-plate device was designed to verify the theoretical prediction of pure water productivity on saline water desalination. The numerical results from the temperature polarization profile were obtained using the finite difference technique to reduce the two-dimensional partial differential equations into an ordinary differential equations system. The resultant simultaneous linear equations system was solved with the fourth-order Runge-Kutta method. The results show theoretical prediction agreement with the measured values from the experimental runs. A combination of the Knudsen flow and Poiseuille flow models in the present mathematical formulation for membrane coefficient estimation was used to establish theoretical agreement. The influence of the inlet saline water temperature and volumetric flow rate on the pure water productivity as well as the hydraulic dissipated energy are also delineated. 相似文献

Direct contact membrane distillation of humic acid solutions 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
Direct contact membrane distillation process has been conducted for the treatment of humic acid solutions using microporous polytetrafluoroethylene and polyvinylidene fluoride membranes. The membranes were characterized in terms of their non-wettability, pore size and porosity. Water advancing and receding contact angles on the top membrane surfaces were measured. Experiments were also carried out employing pure water as feed at different mean temperatures and the water vapor permeance of each membrane was determined. Different humic acid concentrations in the feed solution, pH values and transmembrane temperature difference were tested. The direct contact membrane distillation technique is more adequate for the treatment of humic acid solutions than the applied pressure-driven separation processes, as lower membrane fouling was detected. 相似文献

New membrane distillation configurations and a new membrane module were investigated to improve water desalination. The performances of three hydrophobic microporous membranes were evaluated under vacuum enhanced direct contact membrane distillation (DCMD) with a turbulent flow regime and with a feed water temperature of only 40 °C. The new configurations provide reduced temperature polarization effects due to better mixing and increased mass transport of water due to higher permeability through the membrane and due to a total pressure gradient across the membrane. Comparison with previously reported results in the literature reveals that mass transport of water vapors is substantially improved with the new approach. The performance of the new configuration was investigated with both NaCl and synthetic sea salt feed solutions. Salt rejection was greater than 99.9% in almost all cases. Salt concentrations in the feed stream had only a minor effect on water flux. The economic aspects of the enhanced DCMD process are briefly discussed and comparisons are made with the reverse osmosis (RO) process for desalination. 相似文献

Direct contact membrane distillation (DCMD) experiments using distilled water are reported. Influence on the process of feed and permeate flow rates through the cell has been investigated in a wide flow range, from 2 to 8 l/min. Two main effects have been studied, its effect on the heat transfer coefficient and on the effective membrane thickness. An empiric dependence of the membrane thickness with linear velocity through the cell has been included in the equation for mass flux through the membrane obtained from the “Dusty-Gas” model with satisfactory results. 相似文献

The paper addresses some aspects of liquid low-level radioactive waste (LLLW) purification. Since the volume of liquid low-level wastes is usually large and the activity is rather low, the radioactive substances separated from the non-active portion have to be concentrated into the small volume for subsequent conditioning and disposal. The need for the improvement of decontamination and minimisation of the costs have led to new specific methods being under examination and development. The method proposed in the paper is membrane distillation. The experimental work described below supports the statement that membrane distillation can be an attractive alternative for liquid radioactive waste treatment. The advantages of membrane distillation over the other processes commonly used for the processing of LLLW are discussed in the paper. 相似文献

Membrane distillation was used to produce demineralized water from ground water. The influence of feed water pretreatment
carried out in a contact clarifier (softening with Ca(OH)2 and coagulation with FeSO4 · 7H2O) followed by filtration, on the process effectiveness was evaluated. It was found that the chemical pretreatment decreased
the membrane fouling; however, the degree of water purification was insufficient because precipitation of small amounts of
deposit on the membrane surface during the process operation was still observed. The permeate flux was gradually decreasing
as a result of scaling. The morphology and composition of the fouling layer were studied using scanning electron microscopy
coupled with energy dispersion spectrometry. The presence of significant amounts of silica, apart from calcium and magnesium,
was determined in the formed deposit. The removal of foulants by heterogeneous crystallization performed inside the filter
(70 mesh), assembled directly at the module inlet, was found to be a solution preventing the membrane scaling.

Electroplating waste water containing copper was treated by means of reverse osmosis (RO) membrane separation on a pilot scale. The copper concentration in the untreated waste water was 340 ppm. After the treatment, the concentration in the treated water was below 4 ppm which is the Hong Kong government discharge limit. It is shown that, by increasing transmembrane pressure drop, metal concentrations in the treated water can be further reduced. This study suggests that larger scale operations on treating electroplating waste water by RO membrane separation is possible and effective. Effects of operating variables including transmembrane pressure drop and temperature on membrane separation performance were studied and explained based on the solution-diffusion model. The present study is part of the recent investigation of industrial waste water management sponsored by the Hong Kong Government. The purpose of this project is to provide guidelines to the local industries for waste minimization which is closely monitored by the Hong Kong legislature. 相似文献

Scaling and wettability of hydrophobic membranes were studied during the membrane distillation applied for the production of fresh water from the concentrated salt solutions. The studies were performed with the use of membrane modules in which the capillary membranes from polypropylene were assembled. A saline ground water containing several sparingly soluble salts was used as a feeding solution. The presence of such compounds caused an intensive surface and internal scaling. Due to the scaling, a partial wetting of the membrane walls and the permeation of salts into distillate were observed. These phenomena were eliminated for the membranes with thicker walls when the amount of deposit was limited by a periodic rinsing of the module with water. During this study, the feed was concentrated up to the supersaturation state, which caused a salt crystallization on the membrane surface, and as a consequence, the permeate flux was reduced to zero. In this case, the internal scaling can be limited using the capillary membranes with a net covering their surface. 相似文献

The overall objectives of this study were to summarize and evaluate the performance of currently available membranes for purification of fermentation alcohol and to compare the economics of membrane processes with a modern-day energy-efficient distillation scheme.Literature survey showed that very little work had been done on the development of membrane processes for alcohol concentration.Based on laboratory work, it was found that the present-day thin-film composite desalination membranes can be used for partial concentration of beer solution to about 20 to 30% alcohol concentration. The water permeation coefficient for these membranes in reverse osmosis with 7.6% alcohol feed at 60 atm was about 10 kg/m2-day-atm (2 lb/ft2-day-atm).Due to the high osmotic pressures of ethanol/water mixtures, reverse osmosis can be used only for the initial concentration of beer solution and for the final dehydration of 95% alcohol to produce 199 proof alcohol. Thus, a distillation unit would have to be used for the intermediate concentration of alcohol solution. Membrane concentration schemes using distillation for intermediate concentration were prepared for comparison with a conventional distillation process. Based on preliminary analysis it was concluded that while the capital cost of the membrane-augmented distillation schemes can be significantly than that of the conventional system, the annualized cost of these schemes will be approximately equal to that for distillation. The capital and the annualized costs of the membrane process for the final dehydration of alcohol can be significantly lower than those for the conventional dehydration still. 相似文献

The effect of an external electric field on the flux in crossflow membrane filtration of a model oily waste water was studied using a carbon fibre – carbon composite membrane as a cathode. Limiting fluxes for low flow rate increased significantly under the conditions studied, from 75 l/m2 h without an electric field to more than 350 l/m2 h using an electric field. The experimentally determined increase in the limiting flux showed good agreement with the theoretical value of 430 l/m2 h calculated using a simple model. The limiting flux increase was affected by the electrophoretic mobility of the oil droplets and the applied electric field strength. When there were no cakes without an electric field due to the high flow rate, the flux increase when using an electric field under at the same conditions was minor. The critical electric field strength was determined, and experimentally obtained values were corresponded with calculated values. Decreasing the crossflow velocity above the critical electric field strength increased the flux, or had no effect, depending on the size of the particles. Permeate quality was also improved to some extent when using the electric field, and a membrane with a large pore size could be used when an electric field was applied. The main disadvantage in using the membrane as a cathode was foaming at the membrane surface causing decrease in the flux enhancement as the conductivity of the feed increased. It was not possible to restore the flux to the original value by applying an electric field after filtration of the oil emulsion without an electric field. An intermittent electric field was thus not efficient enough for keeping the flux at high level. 相似文献
