Abstract:
The present invention provides a separation membrane element packed with a rugged sheet object, the separation membrane element being effective in attaining both stabilization of steps for producing the separation membrane element and an increase in fresh-water production rate. The present invention relates to a separation membrane element including: a separation membrane; and a permeate-side channel material disposed on a permeate side of the separation membrane, in which the permeate-side channel material is a porous sheet object having a recess and a protrusion on at least one face thereof, the recess being a coarsely porous region and the protrusion being a densely porous region.
Abstract:
An object of the present invention is to provide a separation membrane having high permeability and selective removability of divalent/monovalent ions. The separation membrane of the present invention includes a supporting membrane and a separation functional layer formed on the supporting membrane, in which the separation functional layer contains a polymerized product of a polyfunctional amine with a polyfunctional acid halide, the polyfunctional amine contains a polyfunctional aliphatic amine as a main component, the separation functional layer has a hollow protuberant structure, and the separation functional layer has a relative surface area of 1.1-10.0.
Abstract:
The present invention provides a separation membrane and a separation membrane element capable of exhibiting a good water production performance even at a high temperature and also excellent handleability and quality. The separation membrane of the present invention includes a separation membrane main body having a feed-side face and a permeate-side face; and a permeate-side channel member fixed onto the permeate-side face of the separation membrane main body, and the permeate-side channel member includes polypropylene as a main component and satisfies the following requirements (a) to (c): (a) a softening point temperature is 60° C. or higher; (b) a tensile elongation in a standard state is 10% or more; and (c) a yield point stress under a wet condition at 50° C. is 2 MPa or more.
Abstract:
A separation membrane (31) is provided with: a separation membrane main body comprising at least a base material (11) and a separation functional layer (13) which are provided with a supply side surface (17) and a permeation side surface (18); material (11) on the side opposite to that of the separation functional layer (13) in the direction of thickness. Two or more layers of the flow path material are included. As a result, a separation membrane and separation membrane element which are effective in providing stable performance when repeated operation is carried out under conditions of high pressure over a long period of time are provided.
