Abstract

PURPOSE:To prepare a penetating vaporization separating membrane having separating performance of ethanol preferantial permeability higher than that of a silicone rubber membrane by impregnating a liquid formation plazma, polymerized with organic silicone compound as a monomer, in a hydrophobic porous membrane. CONSTITUTION:A liquid formation is prepared by plazma polymerizing, for example, monomer-1,1,1,3,5,5,5-heptamethyltrisiloxane. Said formation is impregnated in a polypropylene porous membrane or the like to prepare a liquid membrane. By using said membrane, a mixture of volatile organic liquid/water such as mixed liquid of ethanol is permeated and separated by means of a penetrating vaporization with a preferential permeation of organic liquid such as ethanol or the like.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION (First industrial field) The present invention relates to a membrane for separating liquid mixtures, specifically a method for separating and concentrating a volatile organic liquid from a mixture of conventional volatile organic liquid/water using a membrane. The pervaporation method (per'Vap) is a method for
) has been proposed. This is done by passing the volatile organic liquid/water mixture to be separated on one side through the separation membrane, and on the other side by pumping a vacuum or by flowing an inert gas as a carrier gas (depending on the membrane). This method obtains the permeate as a vapor and collects the permeate by cooling it.

(Problem to be solved by the invention) However, although there are a few reports of membranes with even higher separation performance in the literature and patents, it is expected that advanced technology will be required to create the membrane. Silicone rubber membranes are still the best generally available membranes that preferentially permeate ethanol, and there is a strong desire for membranes with higher separation performance than silicone rubber membranes.

As mentioned above, silicone rubber membranes have a separation coefficient of αEtOH=8-10 for ethanol/water systems, but this performance cannot be improved no matter how the membrane forming method is changed, and the characteristics of the material itself cannot be improved. It appears that this is the case.

Since it seems that the solubility will not change drastically as long as polysiloxane materials such as silicone rubber membranes are handled, the inventors focused their studies on improving the diffusibility. In order to improve the diffusivity more than silicone rubber, it is most effective to use a liquid membrane material. Therefore, we used a plasma polymerization method using an organic silicone compound as a monomer to create a liquid material that has a chemical structure similar to silicone rubber, is liquid, and can withstand pervaporation operations.

Therefore, the present inventors utilized this plasma polymerization method to create a liquid material with a structure similar to silicone rubber, and if evaluated as a liquid membrane, it is possible to obtain a separation membrane with good ethanol permeability.

Indeed, by allowing oxygen gas to coexist during polymerization, it is possible to further improve the formation of a polysiloxane structure in the product. This can be considered to be the result of coexisting oxygen becoming an active species and aiding the development of siloxane chains. Furthermore, membrane separation performance was good when a monomer containing a 5i-H group in the molecule was used. In order to ensure that the 5i-H group remains in the polymerization product from these monomers, it is necessary to carry out the reaction under extremely weak conditions so that the monomer structure is not destroyed as much as possible and can be reflected in the product. In other words, the amount of monomer introduced must be extremely large and the power must be as small as possible.
