Abstract

PURPOSE:To obtain treated water of high purity by a method wherein the water pressure on the condensed water side of a membrane evaporative concentrator is kept higher than that on the waste fluid side thereof and the lowering of the formation amount of condensed water is detected to wash a hydrophobic porous membrane with chemicals and the washed membrane is dried to be regenerated. CONSTITUTION:A waste fluid is introduced into a tank 7 and cooling water is supplied to the cooling chamber 13 of a membrane evaporative concentrator 1 through a circulating system 3. The waste fluid in an evaporation chamber 12 has high temp. to generate evaporation and the generated steam is diffused through a hydrophobic porous membrane to be condensed in the cooling chamber 12. Therefore, the surfactant in the waste fluid is conc. on the surface of the membrane and the particles of the surfactant are settled into the membrane to make the membrane hydrophilic and the waste fluid penetrates in the membrane to become liquid flow. Since the pressure of the cooling chamber 13 is higher than that of the evaporation chamber 12 at this time, cooling water flows in the waste fluid. This inflow amount is increased by making the membrane hydrophilic and an evaporation speed decreases. A chemical agent such as hydrogen peroxide is sent to the cooling chamber 13 from a tank 9 to wash org. matter. Thereafter, a blower 10 is operated to dry the chemical solution remaining in the pores of the membrane 11 to remove the same.

2. Description of the Related Art In order to recycle water such as in a spacecraft or a nuclear power plant, it is necessary to purify water from waste liquid in a limited space. As one of such purification methods, there is a membrane distillation method (membrane evaporation concentration method). The membrane evaporative concentrator has, for example, a structure disclosed in Japanese Patent Publication No. 50-45461. Further, as a waste liquid treatment method incorporating an evaporative concentrator, for example, there is a method disclosed in JP-A-61-164195.

Since these evaporative concentrators use a film on the evaporating surface, the evaporating area can be freely set and the device can be easily miniaturized. Further, since steam can be generated at an intermediate temperature, a polymeric material that is difficult to corrode can be used as a structural material. From this point, the membrane evaporative concentrator has many advantages over conventional evaporator concentrators made of metallic materials.

Further, in this method, since the waste liquid and the purified water come into contact with each other through a thin film of several tens to several hundreds of μm, leakage of the waste liquid to the purified water poses a problem. Therefore, JP-A-1-322562
In the publication, a method of previously removing a component causing a problem of leakage and a method of cleaning and regenerating with alcohol before the leakage expands are proposed. Further, as a countermeasure against this, in Japanese Patent Publication No. 503753, the condensed water side is pressurized,
A method has been proposed in which the waste liquid is prevented from flowing out from the leak portion of the membrane.

In Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 61-164195, even if a small amount of a surfactant is used, a leak occurs. Therefore, in order to remove it in advance, the device becomes large and complicated. There was a point. Further, since the countermeasure against a leak is the cleaning of the film with alcohol, the new findings of the inventors indicate that the cleaning of the film is not sufficient. Further, since alcohol is used, there is a problem that a new alcohol processing device is required.

According to the present invention, the organic contaminants of the film such as the surface active agent are decomposed and removed by using chemicals to be regenerated. However, in membrane evaporative concentrators, the liquid must not permeate through the membrane, so the regeneration operation must not result in loss of hydrophobicity of the membrane surface leading to leakage. This is different from the membrane used for filtration, etc., because the membrane used for filtration allows liquid to permeate gas, so unless the structure of the pores of the membrane changes, the chemical state of the surface of the pores changes. Does not matter.

First, the result of the basic examination will be described. Fig. 2 shows the leak characteristics and the principle of the membrane evaporation concentrator. The membrane evaporative concentrator is composed of an evaporation chamber in which a waste liquid flows and a cooling chamber in which cooling water flows, with a hydrophobic porous film interposed therebetween.
The membrane is a porous membrane made of a hydrophobic material such as polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE), polyethylene and polypropylene. This membrane has a pore size of 0.05 to several μm, a porosity of 50 to 85%, and a thickness of 20 to 200 μm. The hydrophobic porous membrane has a property that gas is permeable but liquid is not permeable. Therefore, the temperature of the waste liquid in the evaporation chamber is kept at 40 to 99 ° C., which is higher than that in the cooling chamber. Therefore, the evaporation of the waste liquid occurs, and the generated vapor diffuses in the hydrophobic porous film and is generated in the cooling chamber. To condense. In this way
Condensed water is obtained. Leakage is a phenomenon in which a liquid flow path is formed in pores in the film, and the stock solution leaks to the cooling water side through the flow path.

Next, the leak characteristics of the waste liquid containing organic substances will be described. Here, a surfactant having the greatest effect of losing hydrophobicity is taken as an example. FIG. 2 shows an example of leak characteristics of a waste liquid containing DBS (dodecyl benzene sulfonate) which is a surfactant used in general detergents. When the pressure on the stock solution side is higher than that on the cooling water side (stock solution pressurization), the conductivity of the cooling water leaking from the stock solution increases when a liquid flow path is formed in the membrane. Since the amount of leak is added to the original amount of evaporation, the evaporation rate apparently increases as the leak progresses. On the other hand, according to Japanese Patent Publication No. 50-3753,
When the cooling water side is pressurized, the increase in the conductivity of the cooling water can be reduced, but the evaporation rate apparently decreases and finally becomes zero. This is because when a liquid flow path is formed in the film, cooling water flows into the stock solution. Further, as will be described later, the film leaked by pressurization on the cooling water side was washed by the method of JP-A-1-322562, but the evaporation rate became 0 in a short time (30 min or less). Therefore, it was found that even if the conventional technique is applied, a sufficient effect cannot be obtained.

Then, the reason why the DBS which becomes an ion cannot be cleaned was examined. As a result, the following three points were found: coexistence of salt.

(2) FIG. 3 shows changes in the evaporation rate when DBS is used alone and when NaCl, which is a salt, coexists. The evaporation rate hardly decreases when DBS is used alone, but it rapidly decreases to 0 when salt coexists.

From the above results, it was found that the mechanism by which DBS causes a leak is as follows. The mechanism is shown in FIG. Here, the case of DBS alone and Na
The case where Cl coexists is shown. DB that is a surfactant
S has a hydrophobic group and a hydrophilic group, and in the case of DBS alone, D
BS is a hydrophobic group and adsorbs toward the hydrophobic membrane surface. On the other hand, when a salt coexists, the hydrophobic groups of DBS are aligned with each other, and DBS molecules gather to form particles (micelles).
These particles are adsorbed or deposited on the surface of the membrane or in the pores. In this way, since DBS forms particles, it tends to be adsorbed or deposited on the film surface and leak easily. In addition, since particles are formed, redissolution becomes difficult.

Since the temperature of the waste liquid in the evaporation chamber 12 is high, the waste liquid is evaporated, and the generated vapor diffuses in the hydrophobic porous film and is condensed in the cooling chamber 13. For this reason, the surfactant in the waste liquid is concentrated on the surface of the film, the particles of the surfactant are deposited in the film, the film is made hydrophilic, and the waste liquid enters the film. Finally, the cooling chamber 13 on the opposite side of the membrane is reached to form a flow path for the liquid. In this case, since the pressure of the cooling chamber 13 is higher than that of the evaporation chamber 12, the cooling water flows into the waste liquid.
As described above, this inflow rate increases as the membrane becomes hydrophilic, and the evaporation rate decreases. When the amount of decrease falls below a predetermined value, the regeneration operation is performed. In playback operation,
First, the pumps 22, 24 are stopped, and the valves 30, 31,
35 and 36 are closed to stop the evaporative concentration operation. Next, the valves 32, 33, 37 are opened, and the liquid feed pump 25
The chemical solution such as H 2 O 2 in the chemical solution tank 9 is sent to the cooling chamber 13 of the membrane evaporation concentrator 1, and returns to the chemical solution tank 9 through the line 5A via the valve 33. Further, the chemical liquid that has passed through the membrane 11 passes through the line 5B and returns to the chemical liquid tank 9. After flowing the chemical solution for a predetermined time, the water feed pump 25 is stopped to stop the flow of the chemical solution. Next, the valve 34 is opened, the blower 10 is operated, and the chemical liquid remaining in the pores of the membrane 11 is removed by drying.
