Conventionally, the liquid mixture to be separated is supplied to the feed liquid side (primary side) of two chambers separated by a separation membrane, and the pressure is reduced on the permeate side (secondary side), or an inert gas is passed. A method of separating a water-organic liquid mixture by the pervaporation method, which maintains a low vapor pressure and allows components with high affinity with the membrane to preferentially permeate as vapor to the secondary side. has been carried out, and various experimental examples have been reported in which water-organic liquid mixtures were separated by such pervaporation methods. Specifically, U.S. Patent No.

Unlike conventional reverse osmosis, the pervaporation method is not limited to the concentration by osmotic pressure, so it is not limited to the separation of liquid mixtures with low concentrations, but can separate liquid mixtures with a whole range of concentrations. It also has the characteristics of being able to separate azeotropic mixtures and solvent isomers with close boiling points (for example, ortho and para isomers, cis and trans isomers) that are difficult to separate using conventional distillation methods. It is considered to be a very useful separation method.

However, it is practically difficult to use conventional pervaporation membranes to separate water-organic acid mixtures due to deterioration of the membrane due to acid.
Furthermore, even if a material with excellent chemical resistance such as silicone, polyolefin, or polytetrafluoroethylene is used for the membrane, the rate of separation of the mixed liquid after passing through the polymer membrane once, that is, the separation coefficient, is small. , in order to separate or concentrate to the desired concentration, it is necessary to pass through a large number of membranes.
In addition, especially when the permeation rate through a polymer membrane (generally expressed as the amount of permeation per unit membrane surface area and unit time, that is, Q (Kg/m 2 hr)) reaches a high value that is practical. , the separation coefficient α becomes very low, so it is still difficult to put it into practical use.

Separation coefficient α A B is the weight ratio WA/WB of component A to component B after permeation through the membrane.
The value divided by the weight ratio WA/WB of the components, α A B = WA/WB in permeate/WA/WB in permeate, is defined as α A B = WA/WB in permeate liquid; The objective is to obtain a membrane with a high separation coefficient and excellent acid deterioration resistance under a high permeation rate when performing separation by vaporization.

The pervaporation device used in the present invention is not particularly limited, and any conventionally known device can be used, and such a device can be operated under conventional conditions to separate a liquid mixture. When performing pervaporation, the larger the pressure difference between the feed liquid side and the permeate side, the more effective it is, but for industrial implementation, it is preferable to provide a pressure difference of 0.5 to 1 atmosphere. It is. The pressure on the feed liquid side is preferably at or near atmospheric pressure, and the pressure on the permeate side is preferably maintained at a reduced pressure below the vapor pressure of the permeate component. Methods for maintaining the permeate side at reduced pressure include drawing a vacuum to reduce the pressure, or flowing a gas that does not react with the constituent components to maintain a low vapor pressure. The separation temperature is suitably a temperature below the azeotropic temperature of the organic liquid mixture to be separated. When separating a liquid mixture, if the desired concentration cannot be obtained by passing it through the membrane once, similar pervaporation equipment can be installed in series and passed multiple times, or it can be combined with distillation. can be concentrated and separated to the desired concentration.
