Oily Wastewater Separation by Using Nanofibrous Membrane
Original language description
In this work, we have demonstrated a facile method to separate oily wastewater using polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) nanofibrous membranes. Various density of PVDF nanofibers were produced using needle-free electrospinning system. A nonwoven supporting layer has been adhered to the nanofibers using a heat press lamination process without any damages. An emulsion with oil droplets size in between 200-1000 nm has been prepared. The structure, permeability and the fouling/anti-fouling of PVDF membranes were studied systematically. Results indicated that, the PVDF membranes selectively separated oil from oily water and showed oleophilic/hydrophobic characteristics. On the contrary, the nonionic surfactant used in emulsion has changed the membrane wettability and created oleophobic/hydrophilic membrane due to surfactant-membrane interaction. The prepared PVDF membranes in this work promise a potential uses in the separation of oily water due to excellent physical/chemical resistance, permeability and mechanical properties.
