Performance and Structure of Thin Film Composite Reverse Osmosis Membranes Prepared by Interfacial Polymerization in the Presence of Acid Acceptor
During interfacial polymerization (IP) reaction between m-phenylenediamine (MPDA) and trimesoyl chloride (TMC), a by-product, i.e. hydrochloric acid can produce. This produced acid diffuses back in aqueous phase and protonates MPDA and reduces its reactivity that results in lowering of polymer yield and performance of membrane. Further, for getting consistency in reverse...
متن کاملConcentration Polarization in Reverse Osmosis Membranes: Effect of Membrane Splitting
We propose a simulation study in order to evaluate the effects of concentration polarization damping by splitting a single spiral-wound membrane module in two units connected in series inside the same shell. The reverse osmosis process in each unit is described by the advection-diffusion equation in two dimensions which is solved by a finite difference technique. Several feed regimes and operat...
متن کاملComposite Polyamide Reverse Osmosis (RO) Membranes – Recent Developments and Future Directions
Thin Film Composite – Polyamide (TFC-PA) are commonly used reverse osmosis (RO) membranes in water desalination and waste water applications. Their poor chlorine tolerance and fouling characteristics constrain the life and performance leading to stringent chemical pretreatment requirements. In this context, development of fouling resistant and chlorine tolerant RO membranes would be relevant to...
متن کاملRejection mechanisms for contaminants in polymeric reverse osmosis membranes
Despite the success of reverse osmosis (RO) for water purification, the molecular-level physicochemical processes of contaminant rejection are not well understood. Here we carry out non-equilibrium molecular dynamics (NEMD) simulations on a model RO membrane to understand the mechanisms of transport and rejection of both ionic and inorganic contaminants in water. While it is commonly presumed t...
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...
