Abstract

The invention discloses a double layered forward osmosis membrane which is characterized by comprising an intermediate porous support layer and ultrathin layers at both sides. A support material such as screen cloth or nonwoven is further embedded in the middle of the porous support layer. The material of the porous support layer and the ultrathin layers is cellulose triacetate fiber, cellulose diacetate fiber or a mixture thereof; and the support material is cotton, polyester or nylon. The preparation method of the double layered forward osmosis membrane includes immersing the processed support material in the film casting solution of cellulose triacetate fiber, cellulose diacetate fiber or the mixture thereof, pulling out from the middle of both sides of a blade, and forming the double layered forward osmosis membrane via a phase inversion method. The advantage of the present invention is that the forward osmosis membrane having two layers can effectively prevent a solute entering into the porous support layer, and reduce the concentration polarization within the support layer, thereby significantly improving the effective water flux of the forward osmosis membrane.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of polymer separation membranes, and in particular relates to a double-skin forward osmosis membrane and a preparation method thereof. Background technique [0002] Forward osmosis technology, as a new membrane separation technology, has developed rapidly in recent years, and has aroused extensive interest of researchers at home and abroad for its outstanding advantages such as low energy consumption, low membrane pollution, and high rejection rate. And desalination, food and medicine, and energy have been used in a series of fields. [0003] However, the lack of high-performance forward osmosis membrane is an important obstacle restricting the development of forward osmosis technology. An ideal forward osmosis membrane should have a denser skin layer with a high rejection rate for solutes and a thinner, looser and more porous support layer to reduce internal concentration polarization. The internal concen...
