城市污水二级出水超滤膜污染与膜特性的研究

以城市污水二级出水为过滤介质,考察了PVA、PVP、PMMA等与PVDF的二元及三元共混超滤膜的过滤污染行为.结果表明,共混优化了PVDF超滤膜的结构参数,添加剂PVP、PVA可有效改善膜的亲水化程度,提高膜渗透通量.超滤膜的亲水性和结构特性对膜抗污染性能影响较大;堵孔阻力是二级出水过滤膜污染不可逆的主要原因.亲水性较强的超滤膜,二级出水过滤初期易因浓差极化而导致滤饼层污染,造成一定的通量衰减,但易清洗恢复,不可逆污染指数(rir)为0,抗污染性能好.致密的超滤膜表面有利于防止二级出水中的中低分子量污染物进入膜内部,而断面通透大孔和疏松海绵层结构的超滤膜,能减少二级出水中的污染物在膜中沉积形成堵孔阻力.膜表面多孔,内部大孔发育不充分,易形成堵孔污染,通量衰减大且不易清洗恢复,膜污染不可逆.     

碳纳米管预沉积改性膜的污染机理研究

为探究碳纳米管(Carbon Nanotubes,CNTs)预沉积改性膜的污染机理,本研究使用正压过滤法将CNTs预沉积在3种孔径的有机膜(20 kDa聚醚砜膜、0.01 μm和0.1 μm聚偏二氟乙烯膜)表面,研究了CNTs预沉积改性膜过滤3种典型污染物(牛血清蛋白、腐殖酸、海藻酸钠)过程中的膜污染情况.根据比通量、Hermia模型和传统滤饼过滤模型,对恒压死端过滤3种典型污染物过程中的污染机理进行了系统评价.结果表明,20 kDa PES膜和0.01 μm PVDF膜表面预沉积CNTs改性后,过滤3种典型膜污染物质时的膜污染情况都得到了一定程度的缓解.20 kDa PES膜表面预沉积CNTs后过滤HA初期为完全孔堵塞与滤饼过滤相结合的复合污染机理,最终转变为滤饼过滤;过滤SA的污染机理为完全孔堵塞与滤饼过滤相结合的复合污染机理.0.01 μm PVDF膜表面沉积CNTs改性后过滤HA初期的污染机理为膜孔堵塞与滤饼过滤相结合的复合污染机理,然后经过向滤饼过滤转变的过渡阶段,最终形成滤饼过滤,且随着CNTs沉积量的增加,过渡阶段持续时间延长.0.1 μm PVDF膜表面预沉积CNTs后过滤3种污染物,均未能缓解膜污染,膜污染机理不受CNTs沉积改性的影响,其过滤BSA和HA的污染机理为膜孔堵塞,过滤SA过程的污染机理符合滤饼过滤.     

超滤的预处理工艺对比研究:化学混凝与电絮凝

对比研究了化学混凝(chemical coagulation,CC)与电絮凝(electrocoagulation,EC)作为超滤膜分离的预处理工艺,在死端过滤条件下与超滤膜的作用机制以及对膜污染的减缓效果.主要研究了Al3+投加量对膜通量、絮体性质(粒径、强度系数、恢复系数、分形维数)、以及滤饼层性质的影响.结果表明,EC作为预处理时,生成的絮体强度大且结构紧实,在膜表面堆积形成的滤饼层具有疏松多孔、亲水性强的性质;而CC作为预处理时,生成的絮体强度低且比较松散,在膜过滤过程中容易被压力压碎压实,导致滤饼层比较密实、亲水性低.因此,EC作为预处理工艺对膜污染的减缓效果好,在运行过程中可以保持较高的膜通量,膜通量较CC高约5.57%.     

预涂膜工艺应用于超滤膜系统

考察平板式微滤膜装置(MF)直接过滤和投加粉末活性炭(PAC)2种工艺对重庆山地农村微污染水源水的处理效果,并对其运行参数进行优化。试验结果表明:重庆山地农村安全供水工程不能单独采用MF装置直接过滤工艺;PAC-MF组合工艺能有效提高产水水质,PAC的最佳投加量为3 mg/L;在工作周期的前20 min内,膜通量下降迅速,下降幅度高于跨膜压差的上升幅度;MF装置经过反清洗后膜通量恢复迅速,可恢复至初始膜通量的97.5%;水力清洗对跨膜压差的影响大于其对膜通量的影响,PAC-MF组合工艺处理微污染水源最优的反冲洗周期为50 min。     

改性微生物絮凝剂在污水处理过程中的应用及膜污染缓解机制

以聚合氯化铝(PAC)与改性微生物絮凝剂(MMF)为复合絮凝体系,系统考察了预混凝在菌藻颗粒污泥膜生物反应器(ABGMBR)处理污水过程中的应用和膜污染缓解机理.膜过滤试验表明,与其他絮凝体系相比,PAC/MMF预混凝可有效缓解膜污染,并且当MMF用量为20mg/L时具有最佳的絮凝能力和膜污染控制性能.扩展的Derjaguin–Landau–Verwey–Overbeek (XDLVO)理论阐明了PAC/MMF体系具有优越的防污性能.PAC/MMF絮凝体系会极大的抑制污染物在膜上的粘附和积累,从而在膜表面形成了疏松多孔且薄的滤饼层.相关性分析表明,显著的膜污染缓解可主要归因于原污水中悬浮物浓度的下降以及zeta电位的增加.     

预处理混凝剂对高盐矿井水膜浓缩的影响

模拟混凝预处理后的高盐矿井水及多级反渗透浓水,进行高盐矿井水多级反渗透的膜分离性能试验,采用单因素试验分别研究了矿井水混凝沉淀预处理后可能过量的PAC、PAM对膜通量及脱盐率的影响。结果表明,进水中30 mg/L PAC、0.3 mg/L PAM对一级膜浓缩无显著影响;二级膜浓缩时18 h后150 mg/L PAC与1.5 mg/L PAM作用下膜通量分别下降至新膜通量的70%和46%;三级膜浓缩18 h后750 mg/L PAC和7.5mg/L PAM作用下膜通量分别下降至新膜通量的61%和35%。三级膜浓缩中PAC和PAM膜污染经NaOH清洗后可使膜通量恢复92%和77%。随着过滤时间的增加,脱盐率呈现上升趋势,且PAM对脱盐率的影响大于PAC。

Ultrafiltration with in-line coagulation for the removal of natural humic acid and membrane fouling mechanism

Experimental and theoretical analysis were made on the natural humic acid removal and the membrane fouling of ultrafiltration （UF） with in-line coagulation. The results showed dissolved organic carbon （DOC） and UV254 removals by the UF with in-line coagulation at pH 7 were increased from 28% to 53% and 40% to 78% in comparison with direct UF treatment respectively. At the same time, the analysis of high performance liquid chromatography showed that UF with coagulation had significant improvement of removal of humic acid with molecular weights less than 6000 Da in particular. Compared to direct UF, the in-line coagulation UF also kept more constant permeate flux and very slight increase oftransmembrane pressure during a filtration circle. Two typical membrane fouling models were used by inducing two coefficients Kc and Kp corresponding to cake filtration model and pore narrowing model respectively. It was found that membrane fouling by pore-narrowing effect was effectively alleviated and that by cake-filtration was much decreased by in-line coagulation. Under the condition of coagulation prior to ultrafiltration at pH 7, the cake layer formed on the membrane surface became thicker, but the membrane filtration resistance was lower than that at pH 5 with the extension of operation time.     

Mechanism of calcium mitigating membrane fouling in submerged membrane bioreactors

Two parallel membrane bioreactors (MBRs) were operated under different calcium dosages (168.5, 27 mg/L) to gain a better understanding of the mechanism of retarding membrane fouling by adding calcium. The results showed that the particle size of sludge flocs increased and the particle size distribution tended to be narrow at the optimum dosage (168.5 mg/L). Calcium was effective in decreasing loosely bound extracellular polymeric substances (LB-EPS) in microbial flocs and soluble microbial products (SMP) in the supernatant at the dosage of 168.5 mg/L by strengthening the neutralization and bridging of EPS with flocs. Furthermore, the amount of COD_S and COD_C decreased in both the mixed liquor and the fouling cake layer on the membrane surface. In order to compare the filtration characteristics of cake layers from the MBRs with the two calcium dosages, the specific cake resistance and the compressibility coefficient were measured. The specific cake resistance from the MBR with optimum dosage (168.5 mg/L) was distinctly lower than that with low dosage (27 mg/L). The compressibility coefficient of the cake layers under two dosages were respectively attained as 0.65, 0.91. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and three-dimensional confocal scanning laser microscope analysis (CLSM) images were utilized to observe the gel layer directly.     

附加电场对中空纤维膜污染的减缓作用

通过对新型附加电场的中空纤维膜组件的实验室研究,探讨了电场对缓解微滤膜污染的作用.在恒定流量下过滤含有20mg/L腐殖酸的原水,无电压时,跨膜压力从0.0200MPa上升到0.0300MPa耗时2h,而施加60V电压时该时间段延长至10h.研究表明,原水中的腐殖酸在电场中发生电泳迁移,减少了向膜表面的移动,其对膜的污染被减缓;同时腐殖酸在电场中发生凝聚现象,沉积在膜表面形成疏松的滤饼层,是跨膜压力增加缓慢的另一原因.     

Treatment of phosphate-containing oily wastewater by coagulation and microfiltration

The oily wastewater generated from pretreatment unit of electrocoating industry contains oils, phosphate, organic solvents, and surfactants. In order to improve the removal efficiencies of phosphate and oils, to mitigate the membrane fouling, coagulation for ceramic membrane microfiltration of oily wastewater was performed. The results of filtration tests show that the membrane fouling decreased and the permeate flux and quality increased with coagulation as pretreatment. At the coagulant Ca （OH）2 dosage of 900 mg/L, the removal efficiency of phosphate was increased from 46.4% without coagulation to 99.6%; the removal of COD and oils were 97.0% and 99.8%, respectively. And the permeate flux was about 70% greater than that when Ca（OH）2 was not used. The permeate obtained from coagulation and microfiltration can be reused as make-up water, and the recommended operation conditions for pilot and industrial application are transmembrane pressure of 0.10 MPa and cross-flow velocity of 5 m/s. The comparison results show that 0.2 μm ZrO2 microfilter with coagulation could be used to perform the filtration rather than conventional ultrafilter, with very substantial gain in flux and removal efficiency of phosphate.

Application of a hybrid gravity-driven membrane filtration and dissolved ozone flotation (MDOF) process for wastewater reclamation and membrane fouling mitigation

This study proposed a novel membrane filtration and dissolved ozone flotation integrated(MDOF) process and tested it at pilot scale. Membrane filtration in the MDOF process was operated in gravity-driven mode, and required no backwashing, flushing, or chemical cleaning. Because ozone was added in the MDOF process, ozonation, coagulation, and membrane filtration could occur in a single reactor. Moreover, in situ ozonation occurred in the MDOF process, which differs from the conventional pre-ozonation membrane filtration process. Significant enhancement of turbidity removal was further achieved through the addition of membrane filtration. Membrane fouling was mitigated in the MDOF process compared to the MDAF process. In situ ozonation in the MDOF process decreased the fluorescence intensity and transformed the high MW dissolved organics into small MW compounds. For the fouling layer, the extracellular polymeric substance(EPS) contents and cake layer morphology were analyzed. The results indicated that the contents of EPS decreased. Furthermore, a thinner and more loosely structured cake layer formed in the MDOF process. Because coagulation and ozonation occurred simultaneously in a single reactor, the generation of hydroxyl radicals was enhanced through the catalytic effect of Al-based coagulants on ozone decomposition, which further alleviated membrane fouling in the MDOF process.
