Abstract
Composite membranes are one of the promising membranes for overcoming the limitations of conventional membranes in gas separation application by improving the permeability and selectivity. However, it is still very challenging to achieve adhesion interface between the top selective layer and the bottom support layer. The present study demonstrates that this challenge can be overcome appropriately by utilizing a series of adhesive polymer as selective layer to prepare composite membrane. To this end, in the first section a series of acrylate-terminated polyurethanes (APUs) based on poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) with different molecular weights (Mn) of 600, 1000, 1500, 2000 and 4000 g/mol,...
Preparation a Polymeric Membrane for Dehydration of Acetic Acid
, M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology ; Mousavi, Abbas (Supervisor) ; Bastani, Dariush (Supervisor)
Abstract
The separation ofacetic acids in binary water solutions hasbeenstudied using a reverse osmosis (RO) membrane. Thin film composite polyamide membrane is used in this study.Thin-film composite (TFC) membrane was prepared through the interfacial polymerization between m-phenylenediamine (MPD) and trimesoyl chloride (TMC) on the polysulphone support membrane.The solute permeation was carried out under applied pressure of 5 bar at 25°C. In this work the effect of various synthesis conditions on the membrane performance was investigated. Parametric studies were conducted by varyingconcentration of reactants, reaction time, curing time and curing temperature. By suitable combination of these...
