Novel dense and supported mixed matrix membranes based on biopolymer sodium alginate (SA) modified by Zr-MOFs were developed to enhance the pervaporation dehydration properties. The addition of UiO-66 into the membrane showed the best transport properties for dehydration of water/isopropanol mixtures, with significant improvements in permeation flux and water content in the permeate.
Novel dense and supported (polyacrylonitrile substrate) mixed matrix membranes based on biopolymer sodium alginate (SA), modified by Zr-MOFs were developed to improve pervaporation dehydration properties of a parent SA membrane. The following Zr-MOFs were synthesized and tested as modifiers: unmodified UiO-66 and modified UiO-66(NH2)-AcOH and UiO-66(NH2)-EDTA. Two kinds of mixed matrix membranes were developed: without additional treatment and cross-linked with calcium chloride. The synthesized Zr-MOFs nanoparticles and developed SA and SA-Zr-MOFs membranes were studied using Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy, nuclear magnetic resonance, scanning electron microscopy, surface area measurement, atomic force microscopy, X-ray diffraction analysis, thermogravimetric analysis, and swelling experiments. Dense and supported membranes were tested for their transport properties in the pervaporation dehydration of isopropanol (12, 30 wt% water for the untreated membranes and 12-100 wt% water for the cross-linked membranes). The best transport properties (dehydration of water/isopropanol mixtures at 22 degrees C) were demonstrated by a supported cross-linked membrane, containing 15 wt% of UiO-66: permeation flux 0.47-3.38 kg/(m(2)h), water content in permeate 99.9-97.5 wt%.
