Abstract:
The modification of hollow fiber ultrafiltration membranes with carbon nanotube (CNTs) on fouling control was investigated. Considering the antifouling ability of the CNT-modified membranes and the stability of CNTs layer, several factors were analyzed and evaluated, including the concentration of ethanol-dispersion, the diameter of CNTs, and the loading mass of CNTs. Besides, DOC, UV254, and fluorescence characteristics of the permeate from the CNT-modified membrane were analyzed. The results revealed that the optimal modification method included a 50%(volume fraction) ethanol-dispersion,a 30-50 nm diameter-CNTs, and 3 g·m-2 CNTs' loading. Compared with the virgin membrane, the removal rates of DOC and UV254 by the CNT-modified membrane were increased by 37% and 56%, respectively. Meanwhile, it was proved that the humic-like and protein-like materials were more easily removed by the CNT-modified membrane. © 2017, Science Press. All right reserved.
