- FO forward osmosis
- FO offers the advantages of high rejection of a wide range of contaminants and lower membrane-fouling propensities than traditional pressure-driven membrane processes.
- Membrane fouling can be significantly reduced, as the effect of internal concentration polarization has been eliminated by the two selective layers that prevent contact between the feed/draw solution and the middle porous supporting layer of the membrane.
- Figure 1 illustrates the transport mechanism of an asymmetric membrane used in a pressure-retarded osmosis (PRO) process (left panel) and in a forward osmosis (FO) process (right panel), hi PRO mode, the draw solution is placed against the dense selective layer of the asymmetric membrane, while in FO mode, the feed is placed against the dense selective layer.
- Figure 2 illustrates a cross section of a common composite reverse osmosis
- Figures 3(a)-(e) are scanning electron microscopy (SEM) images that show the cross section and surface morphologies of a double selective-layer membrane made by the method described herein.
- Figure 4 illustrates the transport mechanism of the double-selective layer membrane shown in Figure 2 in the top mode (left) or bottom mode (right), hi the top mode, the draw solution is placed against the thicker dense selective layer of the membrane, while in the bottom mode, the feed is placed against the thicker dense selective layer.

- ⁇ F ,b osmotic pressure of bulk feed solution.
- Figure 8 shows the fouling test results with the two membranes in the top mode.
- This invention is based in part on the unexpected discovery that the membranes having double selective layers described herein have very high water flux and a salt rejection of more than 99.5% during forward osmosis separation.
- membranes having double selective layers described herein have very high water flux and a salt rejection of more than 99.5% during forward osmosis separation.
- almost all membranes used in the FO process are asymmetric, i.e., having only one selective layer and a porous supporting layer.
- the cross section of an asymmetric membrane is illustrated in Figure 2, left panel.
- the double selective- layer membrane (as shown in Figure 2, right panel) described herein does not suffer from the influence of internal concentration polarization (ICP) in the FO process.
- the double selective layers ensure the rejections of ions, sugar and other dissolved solutes, but let water transport freely, which results in the elimination of ICP through preventing the contact between the feed or draw solution and the porous support layer as the concentration gradient in the middle porous layer is prevented to be established.
- ECP exterior concentration polarization
- ICP interior concentration polarization
- the additional selective layer of the membrane described herein induces extra water transport resistance and subsequently decreases the water permeation flux.
- the double selective-layer membranes have comparable or greater water flux than those asymmetric membranes in the FO process. More specifically, the membrane described herein can achieve a water flux as high as 48.0 LMH (i.e., L/(m 2 -h)) without elevated operation temperatures and the salt leakage less than 10.0 GMH (i.e., g/(m 2 -h)) in the FO process.
- the two selective layers of the membrane described herein have a much smaller pore size and porosity that the porous supporting layer.
- the supporting layer has a pore size of 10-1000 nm and a porosity of 30-90% while the selective layers have a pore size of 0.2-0.5 nm and a porosity less than 1%.
- the two selective layers one may have a slightly greater or smaller pore size/porosity than the other.
- the two selective layers of the membrane described herein are formed of the same polymer, e.g., cellulosic polymer.
- the supporting porous middle layer can also be formed of the same polymer as the selective layer.
- a double selective-layer membrane formed via the phase inversion process described herein has all three layers formed of the same polymer.
- the two selective layers are formed of different polymers. This can be achieved by coating an asymmetric membrane on the side of its porous layer with a polymer different from that constitutes the selective layer. Alternatively, this can be achieved by subjecting a double selective-layer membrane formed via the method described herein to a surface treatment process that results in different chemical compositions for the two selective layers.
- polymers in one of the two selective layers are branched or cross-linked while those in the other selective layer are not.
- Membranes of other layer configurations such as that having two selective layers formed of the same polymer but a porous supporting layer formed of a different polymer, are also contemplated and can be produced by, e.g., coating, surface treatment, or combination thereof.
- the polymers constituting the selective layers and the porous supporting layer are hydrophilic.
- hydrophilic polymer include cellulosic polymer (e.g., cellulose acetate, cellulose diacetate, cellulose triacetate, cellulose propionate, cellulose butyrate, cellulose acetate propionate, cellulose dibutyrate, cellulose tributyrate, and a combination thereof), polyacrylonitrile, polyvinyl alcohol, polyamide, polyaniide-imide, sulphonated polyethersulphone, sulphonated polysulphone, polybenzimidazole (PBI), and a combination thereof.
- PBI polybenzimidazole
- the process includes, among others, coagulating a polymer solution in a coagulation bath (e.g., a water bath) to form upon a substrate a polymer film that has two dense surface layers sandwiching a porous layer.
- a coagulation bath e.g., a water bath
- the formation of the two dense surface layers depends on many parameters such as temperature of the coagulation bath, coagulant, dope components of the polymer solution, and substrate chemistry.
- the coagulant water is the generally used coagulant.
- a substrate having a hydrophilic surface appears to promote forming two dense layers.
- Example 1 Fabrication of a double selective-layer membrane using cellulose acetate A homogeneous polymer solution was prepared by dissolving cellulose acetate (CA, 22.5 wt%) in a mixture of N-methyl-pyrrolidone (72.5 wt%) and acetone (5 wt%). Next, the polymeric solution was coated onto a surface of the horizontal glass plate to form a uniform polymer layer by a casting knife with a gap of 50 mm. The coated plate was then immersed into the water coagulant bath (25°C) to allow CA to precipitate and a membrane was formed on top of the plate.
- CA cellulose acetate
- N-methyl-pyrrolidone 72.5 wt%)
- acetone 5 wt%
- the membrane was separated from the plate and rinsed with water to get rid of residual solvent before it was heat annealed in a hot water bath at 85 o C for l5 min.
- the membrane as obtained was examined with SEM. As shown in Figure 3, the membrane produced has two dense surface layers and a porous middle layer.
- Example 2 Water and salt transport characterization Water flux of the membrane made in Example 1 in the FO process was determined by measuring the volume change of the feed solution over a selected period, using a setup as shown in Figure 5.
- the setup includes a crossflow cell of a plate and frame design with a rectangular channel on each side of the membrane.
- the flow velocity during the testing was set at 6.4 cm/s for both feed and draw solutions, which concurrently flew through the cell channels.
- the temperatures of the feed and draw solutions were maintained at 22 ⁇ 0.5 0 C.
- the pressures at two channel inlets were kept at 1.0 psi.
- the draw solutions used were MgCl 2 solutions with different concentrations.
- the salt leakage was calculated by measuring the conductivity in the feed solution at the end of experiment.
- the water permeation flux (Jv) is calculated from the feed volume change.
- ⁇ F(L) is the permeation water collected over a predetermined time At (h) in FO process duration and A is the effective membrane surface area (m 2 ).
- the salt concentration in the feed water was determined from the conductivity measurement using a calibration curve for the single salt solution.
- the salt leakage, i.e., salt back-flowing from the draw solution to the feed, J s in g/(m 2 -h) (abbreviated as gMH), is thereafter determined from the increase of the feed conductivity: J s A(C t Vdl(AAi) (2) where Q and V t are the salt concentration and the volume of the feed at the end of FO tests, respectively.
- Example 1 For sea water desalination, its water flux was assessed in a manner similar to that described in Example 2 except that 3.5 wt% NaCl instead of pure water was used. As shown in Figure 7, the water permeation flux was close to that shown in Figure 6A. Again, the water flux in the bottom mode was observed to be higher than that in the top mode.
- Example 4 Fabrication and characterization of a double selective-layer membrane using cellulose triacetate
- a homogeneous polymer solution was prepared by dissolving the cellulose triacetate (CTA, 20.0 wt%) in N-methyl-pyrrolidone (80.0 wt%). Then, a membrane was prepared in a manner similar to that described in Example 1 except that the membrane was thermal annealed in hot water at 9O 0 C for 15 min. The membrane formed had two dense surface layers and a porous middle layer.
- the membrane was then characterized in a manner similar to that described in Example 2.
- the water flux of the membrane reached 42.2 LMH in the bottom mode, which was much higher than that in the top mode, i.e., 30.2 LMH, when using 5.0 M MgCl 2 as the draw solution.
- Example 5 Membrane fouling test Two CA membranes were produced using different coagulants: pure water and
- NMP/water in a volume ratio of 90/10 The membrane formed with water coagulant had double selective layers while the other membrane formed with NMP/water coagulant had a single selective layer.
- a colloidal solution of aluminum oxide nanoparticles whose actual size is around 200 nm was employed as the feed. Water flux was normalized to the initial value when the feed was DI water. As illustrated in Figure 8, the single- selective-layer membrane showed more serious fouling. Its water flux dropped to about 70 percent of its initial value after several hours.
- the double selective-layer membrane showed only a slight decrease (less than 10 percent) in water flux, hi addition, after washing the two membranes with DI water for 1 h, the water flux of the double selective-layer membrane almost went back to the initial value, while the water flux of the single dense-layer membrane only reached 80 percent of the initial value.
