Abstract: A polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF)/polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) composite membrane for butanol recovery was fabricated by coating a dense PDMS separation layer on a PVDF porous support layer prepared by phase inversion. The total flux and separation factor of the PVDF/PDMS composite membrane could be 158.2 g·m-2·h-1 and 17.3, respectively, when feed solution was 15 g·L-1 butanol at 37℃ with a flow rate 1.6 L·min-1. To simulate the fermentation liquor, acetone and ethanol were added into the feed solution in a ratio 6(butanol):3:1, the total flux of PVDF/PDMS composite membrane increased to 189.5 g·m-2·h-1, but separation factor decreased to 14.8. Furthermore, fermentation broths with/without biomass as feed solution were investigated to evaluate pervaporation performance of the PVDF/PDMS composite membrane. The total flux and separation factor were 120.2 g·m-2·h-1 and 19.7 for without biomass case, 122.1 g·m-2·h-1 and 16.7 for with biomass case, respectively. Compared with PDMS membrane, the performance of PVDF/PDMS composite membrane had significant improvement for butanol recovery, indicating that it is of potential for industrial application of butanol recovery.

摘要: 通过相转化法制备PVDF多孔支撑膜,在其上涂覆致密的PDMS分离层制备得到PVDF/PDMS复合膜,用于丁醇的分离纯化。以丁醇水溶液为原料液,流速为1.6 L·min-1,丁醇浓度为15 g·L-1,温度为37℃时, PVDF/PDMS复合膜的总通量为158.2 g·m-2·h-1,分离因子为17.3。向丁醇水溶液中按丁醇:丙酮:乙醇比例为6:3:1添加丙酮和乙醇模拟发酵液,PVDF/PDMS复合膜的总通量升高到189.5 g·m-2·h-1,分离因子降低到14.8。进一步考察了以丙酮-丁醇-乙醇(ABE)发酵液为原料液的渗透气化膜分离性能,发酵液中不存在菌体时,PVDF/PDMS复合膜的总通量和分离因子分别为120.2 g·m-2·h-1和19.7,而菌体存在时,复合膜的总通量和分离因子分别为122.1 g·m-2·h-1和16.7。与PDMS均质膜相比,PVDF/PDMS复合膜在丁醇分离过程中的分离性能有了显著的提升, 具有潜在的应用价值。
