  • Patent number: 11623182
    Abstract: A nanofiltration membrane with a high flux for selectively removing hydrophobic endocrine disrupting chemicals and a preparation method thereof are provided. The method includes the following steps: immersing a porous support layer into a first solution, removing excess droplets from a surface of the support layer after taking the support layer out of the first solution, and then immersing the support layer attached with the first solution into a second solution for an interfacial polymerization reaction, followed by washing after completion of the reaction to obtain the subject nanofiltration membrane. The first solution is an aqueous solution containing a polyamine monomer and an acid binding agent, and the second solution is an organic solution containing an acid chloride monomer and a metal-organic framework.

  • Patent number: 10272387
    Abstract: To provide a modified forward osmosis (FO) membrane module for flow regime improvement, the FO membrane module includes but not limited to: a water inlet; a water outlet; a forward osmosis (FO) membrane; a frame; and folded plates for improving flow regime in which draw solution is introduced into the water inlet of membrane module, then flowed through flow channels composed by three opposite folded plates vertically arranged on upper and bottom portions of the frame alternatively along horizontal direction with equal space; and drawn out from the water outlet. The flow regime improvement is achieved by increasing number of flow-guide folded plate, which results in the decrease of internal concentration polarization and membrane fouling. Structure of frame is modified to improve flow regime and to satisfy requirement of convenient and reliable connections between numbers of membrane modules in the FO membrane system.

  • Patent number: 10016729
    Abstract: This invention provides a polymeric separation membrane that has excellent durable antibacterial effect and stain resistance, and a preparation method thereof. The polymeric separation membrane can be widely applied for water treatment, which belongs to the field of water treatment and membrane separation science and technology. The polymeric separation membrane containing quaternary ammonium salt is prepared by the immersion precipitation phase inversion method, using quaternary ammonium salt mixed with polymer and additives. This modification method effectively improves the antibacterial and antifouling ability of the polymeric separation membrane prolongs the service life of membranes and significantly inhibits the reproduction of bacterial and microbial. The preparation method has the advantages of simple process, easy operation, easy for promotion, and also avoids expensive equipment.

  • Publication number: 20170066668
    Abstract: This present disclosure relates to a highly effective sewage treatment based on regulation and control of directed electron flow and apparatus thereof The apparatus includes an anaerobic fermentation electron generation chamber, a heterotrophic-autotrophic denitrification chamber and an aerobic membrane separation chamber. Low concentrated organic sewage is introduced into anaerobic fermentation electron generation chamber; then, particulate and partly dissolved organic substances are intercepted and absorbed by carrier materials; and extracellular currents generated by microorganism reaction are used in following autotrophic denitrification processing. Micro-/ultra-membrane separation processing is used to improve operation load and solid-liquid separation effect of sewage treatment and thereby effluent could meet the high recycling standards. The directed electron flow is regulated and controlled to enhance nutrients' removal and to reduce sludge yield and fouling rate of membrane.
