超滤膜的超声波助清洗研究

考察了不同功率的超声波对超滤膜性能的影响.结果表明:20W功率的超声波对超滤膜截留率的影响不大,大于30W以后,超滤膜的截留率下降明显.在此基础上,对实际工业现场印钞擦版废液污染超滤膜的化学清洗过程中,附以20W低功率超声波,可以发挥其超强振动和超搅拌作用,从而将化学清洗时间从20～30min缩短到5min左右,极大地提高了膜清洗效率.SEM的观察结果显示,在仅采用简单的超声波物理清洗时,膜表面的污染物并不能彻底有效地得以清除.

Study on Assistant Cleaning of Ultrasound for the Ultrafiltration Membrane

The effects of ultrasounds with different frequency on membrane performance were investigated in this paper. The experimental results show that there were nearly no effects of 20 W ultrasound on membrane retention coefficient, but it decreased seriously when the ultrasound power was above 30 W. On the basis of these results, low frequency ultrasound (20 W) was introduced to assist the chemical cleaning in the ultrafiltration process of wastewater from bank note printing works. The cleaning time could be shortened from 20-30 min to 5 min by the ultra-liberation and ultra-blend effects of ultrasound, therefore, the cleaning efficiency was highly improved. However, the fouling substances could not be cleaned entirely in the simple physical cleaning process by SEM analysis.
