Preparation and Characterization of Poly (vinyl alcohol) Membrane for Pervaporation Separation of Water-Organic Mixtures
نویسندگان
چکیده
Poly (vinyl alcohol) membranes were prepared by in-situ crosslinking of poly (vinyl alcohol) with glutaraldehyde as a crosslinking agent and hydrochloric acid as catalyst and the membranes were used to separate mixtures of IPA and water. Effects of feed composition, operating temperature, vacuum pressure and Reynolds number on permeation performance of the membranes were evaluated. The results showed that operating conditions have an effective influence on permeation properties of PVA membranes.

Fabrication and Characterization of Chitosan/Alginate Multilayer Composite Membrane Supported by a Porous Poly (Acrylonitrile) Substrate for Pervaporation Dehydration of Alcohol
Chitosan (CS) and alginate (Alg) are complementary in their membrane performance, but the combination of them is normally difcult to use due to their different solubilities. Layer-by-Layer deposition appears to be an effective method for improving the separation efciency of a composite membrane. In this work, the polyelectrolyte multilayer composite membranes (PEMCMs) wer...

متن کاملPervaporation of alcohol-toluene mixtures through polymer blend membranes of poly ( acrylic acid) and poly (vinyl alcohol)
Homogeneous membranes were prepared by blending poly (acrylic acid) with poly (vinyl alcohol). These blend membranes were evaluated for the selective separation of alcohols from toluene by pervaporation. The flux and selectivity of the membranes were determined both as a function of the blend composition and of the feed mixture composition. The results showed that a polymer blending method coul...
