摘要:
A high flux and low pressure drop microfiltration (MF) membrane and a method for making the MF membrane. The microfiltration membranes are formed by a method that includes: preparing a nanofibrous structure; and modifying the surface of the nanofibrous structure with a surface modifier. The nanofibrous structure includes an electrospun nanofibrous scaffold or a polysaccharide nanofiber infused nanoscaffold or mixtures thereof. The electrospun nanofibrous scaffold can include polyacrylonitrile (PAN) or polyethersulfone (PES))/polyethylene terephthalate (PET) or mixtures thereof. The surface modifier includes polyethylenimine (PEI) and polyvinyl amine (Lupamin) cross-linked by ethylene glycol diglycidyl ether (EGdGE)/glycidyltrimethylammonium chloride (GTMACl) or poly(1-(1-vinylimidazolium)ethyl-3-vinylimdazolium dibromide (VEVIMIBr).
摘要:
The present invention provides membranes having a coating layer comprising cellulose or cellulose derivative and a porous support comprising nanofibers prepared by a process of coating a solution comprising cellulose or a cellulose derivative dissolved in an ionic liquid on to a porous support layer. The present invention is useful for providing improved water flux and high rejection rates for oil/water emulsions. The present invention also provides fluid separation systems in UF, NF, RO and FO, incorporating membranes of the present invention.

摘要:
Microfiltration membranes achieve high retention of bacteria and viruses by pore-size exclusion by the diameters of the fibers in the scaffold layer. The membranes have a high permeation flux as compared with conventional commercial micro filtration membranes under the same applied pressure. Ultra-fine nanofibers (fiber diameters from 3 nanometers to 50 nanometers and lengths from about 100 nanometers to about 5000 nanometers) are infused into, or deposited onto the surface of fibrous filtration media. Negatively charged ultra-fine nanofibers can include polysaccharide nanofibers prepared by a 2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidine-1-oxyl (TEMPO)INaBrINaCIO oxidation system in aqueous solution. Ultra-fine polysaccharide nanofibers having a large number of carboxylate groups are produced. (0.7-1.0 mmol/g cellulose) The carboxylate groups are negatively charged, and can interact with positively charged polymers/molecules by forming a complex. Such ultra-fine polysaccharide nanofibers have positive charges, that are effective for the removal of bacteria and viruses through adsorption.

摘要:
A membrane is provided including a coating layer having cellulose nanofibers produced from oxidized cellulose microfibers and an electrospun substrate upon which the coating layer is applied. The nanofibers of the electrospun substrate have a diameter greater than that of the cellulose nanofibers. The membrane also has non-woven support upon which the electrospun substrate is disposed. Microfibers of the non-woven support have a diameter greater than that of the nanofibers of the electrospun substrate. Application of electrospun membrane is in microfiltration area, while the cellulose nanofiber membrane serves in ultra-filtration, nanofiltration, and reverse osmosis after chemical modification.
