Definitions
- the invention relates to a device for separating substance mixtures or for cleaning substances by means of pervaporation, membranes made of a polymer based on polyether esters being used as the membrane for the pervaporation.
- the invention further relates to the use of polyether ester membranes for pervaporation.
- the driving force is a pressure difference between the side on which the feed mixture is located and the side on which the permeate is located, ie the driving force is the difference between the saturation vapor pressures assigned to the operating temperature on the feed side (side of the feed mixture) and the Partial vapor pressure of the permeating components on the permeate side.
- the membranes used for pervaporation belong to the type of membrane referred to as "dense” or “non-porous". More details about the pervaporation procedure are e.g. the "Membrane Handbook" by W.S. Winston Ho and Kamalesh K. Sirkar, published by van Nostrand Reinhold Verlag New York in 1992, and the book “Membrane Processes” by R. Rautenbach and R. Albrecht, published by John Wiley & Sons Ltd. Published in 1989. Numerous materials are used for pervaporation; In particular, numerous synthetic polymers are known which can be used as flat films or as hollow fibers for a wide variety of separation tasks by means of pervaporation.
- European patent application 0 264 113 describes the pervaporation of phenols by means of non-porous membranes which consist of a number of elastic polymers or which are anion exchange membranes, among others.
- the block copolymer "Hytrel 5556” a copolyether ester used primarily for the production of impact-resistant plastic articles.
- a device for separating mixtures of substances or for cleaning substances by means of pervaporation the means for supplying the feed mixture or the substance to be cleaned, if appropriate for carrier gas and for removing permeate and retentate, and at least one membrane Has the basis of copolyether esters for separation by means of pervaporation, characterized in that the membrane is a non-porous, water vapor permeable, waterproof membrane made of a polymer based on hydrophilic copolyether ester.
- Such polymers based on hydrophilic copolyether esters are particularly suitable polymers which are derived from longer-chain polyglycols, short-chain glycols, e.g. with 2 to 4 carbon atoms and dicarboxylic acids. These are preferably membranes based on a copolyether ester, which consists of a large number of recurring intralinear long-chain and short-chain ester units which are statistically linked head to tail via ester linkages, the long-chain ester units of the formula
- G represents a divalent radical which remains after the removal of terminal hydroxyl groups from at least one long-chain glycol with an average molecular weight of 600 to 6000 and an atomic ratio of carbon to oxygen between 2.0 and 4.3, whereby at least 20% by weight of the long-chain glycol has an atomic ratio of carbon to oxygen between 2.0 and 2.4 and make up 15 to 50 percent by weight of the copolyetherester
- R represents a divalent radical which, after removal of carboxyl groups from at least one dicarboxylic acid of molecular weight less than 300
- D represents a divalent residue remaining after removal of hydroxyl groups from at least one diol of molecular weight less than 250, with at least 80 mole percent of the dicarboxylic acid used from terephthalic acid or its ester-forming equivalents and at least 80 mole percent d diols with the low molecular weight consist of 1,4-butanediol or its ester-forming equivalents, the sum of the molar percentages of the di
- % of the diol used with a small molecular weight is 1,4-butanediol or its ester-forming equivalents and the sum of the molar percentages of the dicarboxylic acid which is not 2,6-naphthalenedicarboxylic acid or its ester-forming equivalents and of the diol with a small molecular weight , which is not 1,4-butanediol or its ester-forming equivalents, is at most 30% and the ester units with short chains make up 35 to 80% by weight of the copolyether ester.
- opolyether ester which consists of a large number of repeat intralinear long-chain and short-chain Es units which are statistically linked via ester linkage head to tail, the long-chain ester units of the formula
- G represents a divalent radical which, after removal of terminal hydroxyl groups from at least one long-chain glycol, has an average molecular weight of 600 to 4000 and an atomic ratio of carbon: oxygen between 2 and 4.3 remains, wherein at least 20 percent by weight of the long-chain glycol has an atomic ratio of carbon: oxygen between 2.0 and 2.4 and make up 15 to 50 percent by weight of the copolyetherester
- R represents a divalent radical which, after the removal of carboxyl groups from at least one Dicarboxylic acid with a molecular weight of less than 300 remains
- D represents a divalent radical which remains after the removal of hydroxyl groups from at least one diol with a molecular weight of less than 250, with at least 70 mol% of the dicarboxylic acid used from 2,6-naphthalenedicarboxylic acid or their ester-forming equivalents and at least 70 mol% of the diol with the low molecular weight consists of 1,4-butanediol or its ester
- copolyether esters are described in more detail in Dutch patent application No. 9300723 dated April 28, 1993; the disclosure in this patent application is expressly referred to here.
- the membranes used in the device can be flat membranes, tubular membranes and membranes in the form of hollow fibers.
- Flat membranes can advantageously be used on a textile base such as a nonwoven, knitted or fabric base.
- the membranes can be easily produced from solutions or from the melt by methods known per se.
- the membranes can have a symmetrical or asymmetrical structure.
- copolyetherester membranes can also be used as multilayer membranes. It is thus possible to use a support membrane as a base, which does not have to consist of copolyether ester, on which the actual copolyether ester separation membrane then rests, possibly with the interposition of a thin compensating layer.
- Another object of the invention is the use of membranes from the above-mentioned polyether ester copolymers for pervaporation.
- membranes made from such copolyether esters are very suitable for a wide variety of separation tasks using pervaporation.
- the cleaning of substances, the separation of smaller amounts, the concentration of organic liquids by separating water or alcohols and phenols by means of pervaporation can be carried out in an excellent manner.
- the most diverse areas of application such as food technology, environmental protection, waste water purification and the like. in question.
