The optimisation of ultrasonic cleaning procedures for dairy fouled ultrafiltration membranes.
Ultrafiltration (UF) of whey is a major membrane based process in the dairy industry. However, commercialization of this application has been limited by membrane fouling, which has a detrimental influence on the permeation rate. There are a number of different chemical and physical cleaning methods currently used for cleaning a fouled membrane. It has been suggested that the cleaning frequency ...
متن کاملPreparation and characterization of MWCNT-COOH/PVC ultrafiltration membranes to use in water treatment
Polyvinyl chloride (PVC) membranes containing pristine and modified multiwall carbon nanotube (MWCNT) were prepared and characterized. MWCNT was modified in order to achieve well-dispersion within the membranes. The results of FTIR analysis revealed that MWCNT was successfully carboxylated. The FESEM images indicated that the number of pores on the surface of membranes increased at the presence...
متن کاملPreparation, Characterization and Application Studies of PVDF- PS Ultrafiltration Membranes
Polyvinyledenefluoride–polystyrene (PVDF/PS) blend ultrafiltration membranes were prepared using phase inversion technique. Casting solutions were prepared with different compositions of polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) and polystyrene (PS) both in the presence and absence of the additive, polyvinylpyrolidone (PVP) using dimethylacetamide as solvent. The effects of compositions of PS and concentr...
متن کاملUltrafiltration through Collodion Membranes
It is obvious that the factors considered in this paper render data obtained by ultrafiltration open to criticism unless they are checked by other methods and precautions are taken for the elimination of the vitiating effects which have been described. As regards the mechanism of ultrafiltration, the view of a sieve-like action as most experimental evidence indicates, is adequate, if all the fa...
متن کاملSalt cleaning of organic-fouled reverse osmosis membranes.
Cleaning of organic-fouled reverse osmosis membranes with concentrated salt solutions has been investigated. Polysaccharides (alginate and pectin) and Suwannee River natural organic matter were used as model organic foulants. By systematically varying the chemical and physical factors affecting salt cleaning efficiency, we were able to elucidate the processes and mechanisms involved during salt...
