Influence of Inner Configuration of Membrane on Microfiltration of Suspensions

Article Preview

Abstract:

The influence of membrane type on the permeate flux in microfiltration of two sorbents Bentonite a natural sorbent, montmorillonite based clay and Lewatit S1468 a synthetic sorbent, styrene-divinylbenzene based copolymer was studied. Two types of membranes, single-and multi-channel, both asymmetric inorganic ceramic membranes based on α-Al2O3, were used. The experimental data were obtained by continuous microfiltration equipment. According to the results use of multi-channel membrane has more advantages higher permeate flux, lower energy consumption, and lower flow rate than disadvantages longer time period to reach the steady state and higher pressure loss.
