Definitions
- the present invention relates to a method and an apparatus for producing a zeolite membrane suitable for molecular sieving and the like because it has few defects and high separation performance, and a zeolite tubular separation membrane obtained by this method.
- Zeolite is a crystalline aluminosilicate having pores about the size of a molecule, and a membrane made of zeolite has a property of selectively passing molecules depending on the size and shape of the molecule. Widely used as molecular sieve. Above all, its use as a separation membrane between water and an organic solvent, particularly as a separation membrane between water and alcohol, has attracted attention. Since the zeolite membrane itself that functions as a separation membrane does not have sufficient mechanical strength, it is generally used while being supported on a porous support that also has strength such as ceramics.
- a zeolite membrane supported by a porous support is manufactured by a hydrothermal synthesis method in a state where the porous support is immersed in a raw material mainly composed of a silica source and an alumina source.
- a porous support is immersed in a slurry-like raw material containing a silica source and an alumina source, a zeolite film is formed with fine zeolite seed crystals in the slurry as nuclei. For this reason, the zeolite raw material must be supersaturated in the slurry.
- Patent Document 1 discloses a slurry in which zeolite crystals are suspended in a binder solution. After impregnating the alumina substrate with the rally, the substrate is washed and dried to attach zeolite crystals to the pores and the surface of the alumina substrate. The alumina substrate is immersed in a reaction solution containing a zeolite precursor, and water is applied.
- the present invention discloses a method for producing a zeolite crystal film in which the zeolite crystal is grown by thermal synthesis to obtain a crystal film.
- A-type zeolite membrane When forming an A-type zeolite membrane by this method, it takes about 15 minutes and 12 hours at 70-90 ° C.
- ZSM-5 type zeolite membrane it takes about 24-72 hours at 160-200 ° C. Is kept in the autoclave.
- a zeolite crystal attached to pores and on the surface thereof is grown in a reaction solution using a filter made of alumina as a substrate. Therefore, the concentration of the zeolite raw material in the slurry can be set low, and the growth of zeolite crystals in the slurry can be reduced.
- zeolite films may adhere to both surfaces of the substrate.
- a separation membrane having a zeolite membrane attached to both surfaces of a substrate has a low permeation flow rate, has excellent separation performance, and has the following problems.
- Patent Document 2 discloses a porous support in which a sol for synthesizing a zeolite is cylindrical and has an outer surface sealed so that the outer surface is not in contact with the sol. After immersion in the container containing the sol, the pressure in the container containing the sol is reduced to 10 mmHg by a vacuum pump, and the pressure is maintained for 6 hours. The method of hydrothermal treatment is described. According to this method, the zeolite membrane can be formed inside the porous support, and therefore, the support strength of the zeolite membrane is not easily removed. However, when the zeolite membrane enters the pores of the porous support, there is a problem that the substantial thickness of the zeolite membrane is too large and the pressure loss of the separation membrane is too large.
- Patent Document 3 discloses that a gel solution of a mordenite (MOR) seed crystal is applied to the surface of a porous substrate, and then the gel solution is put into a pressure vessel, and the gel solution is A method for hydrothermal synthesis with a tubular porous substrate standing upright is described. When a porous substrate is placed in a gel solution so that the zeolite film formation surface is horizontal, an oriented MOR zeolite film is formed on the lower surface of the substrate.
- MOR mordenite
- the zeolite film formation surface is vertical, so that the MOR zeolite film with the b-axis or c-axis oriented parallel to the substrate is porous. It can be formed on the entire surface of the substrate.

- the porous tubular support 3 is preferably placed in the reaction vessel 1 such that the axis of the porous tubular support 3 is substantially on the axis of the reaction vessel 1. Since both ends of the porous tubular support 3 are open, the reaction solution also enters the tubular support 3.
- one porous tubular support 3 is placed in one reaction vessel 1. When two or more porous tubular supports 3 are placed in the reaction vessel 1, the reaction solution does not enter a favorable convection state when the reaction solution is heated, and a uniform zeolite membrane is not formed.
- the porous tubular support 3 It is preferable to immerse the porous tubular support 3 so that the upper end of the porous tubular support 3 is 2 to 30 cm below the liquid level of the reaction solution.
- the distance from the upper end of the porous tubular support 3 to the liquid surface is less than 2 cm, convection of the reaction solution does not sufficiently occur, and a uniform zeolite membrane is not formed. If the distance to the liquid surface exceeds 30 cm, the amount of the reaction solution to be heated is too large and the energy loss is too large.

- the zeolite membrane is thinly attached to the surface of the porous tubular support, and almost no Do not form. Therefore, a zeolite film having a uniform thickness and very few defects can be obtained. This is because the hydrothermal synthesis reaction is carried out in a state where the reaction solution is also contained in the porous tubular support, so that the reaction solution with almost no pressure difference between the inside and the outside of the porous tubular support is a porous tubular support. It is considered that the reason for this is that it does not enter the pores of the support much.
- the zeolite membrane is formed on the outer surface of the porous tubular support. Not only the zeolite membrane is not substantially formed on the inner surface of the porous tubular support, but also a gel-like substance such as silica hardly adheres. This is thought to be due to the fact that the flow of the reaction solution due to convection in the porous tubular support is small, and that the reaction solution has a temperature gradient and the temperature in the porous tubular support is low. .
- the porous tubular support is substantially separated from the inner surface force of the reaction vessel, and the porous tubular support is located between the porous tubular support and the inner surface of the reaction vessel.
- the reaction liquid is in a favorable convection state.

- the lower portion 12 includes a conical portion 121 corresponding to the bottom of the reaction vessel 1, and a cylindrical portion 122 extending from the conical portion 121.
- An inlet 13 of the reaction solution protrudes from the cylindrical portion 122, and an outlet 14 protrudes from the conical portion 121.
- a cock 131 and a cock 141 are provided at the inlet 13 and the outlet 14, respectively.
- an outlet 14 is attached to the bottom of the conical part 121 of the lower part 12 so as to easily discharge the reaction solution.

- hydrothermal synthesis is performed with the lower end of the porous tubular support 3 in contact with the conical section 121, a precipitate composed of minute zeolite generated in the reaction solution adheres to the vicinity of the lower end of the porous tubular support 3. Therefore, defects are liable to occur in the zeolite film, which is not preferable.
- the lower end force of the porous tubular support 3 The preferable distance d near the conical portion 12 depends on the length of the porous tubular support 3, and it is preferable that the longer the porous tubular support 3, the longer the distance d. For example, for a porous tubular support of 80 cm, it is about 5-60 cm.

- the steam V When the steam V is supplied from the upper port 22 of the jacket 2, the steam V fills the inside of the jacket 2, and the heat of the steam V is transmitted to the main body 11 of the reaction vessel 1.
- the heat transmitted to the main body 11 is transmitted to the reaction liquid outside the porous tubular support 3, but the temperature of the reaction liquid becomes lower than the temperature in the jacket 2 due to heat loss. Heat is transmitted to the reaction solution in the porous tubular support 3 from the outer reaction solution via the porous tubular support 3. For this reason, the temperature inside the porous tubular support 3 is the lowest.

- the inner surface force of the reaction vessel 1 and the distance D to the outer surface of the porous tubular support 3 are preferably 2 to 25 mm so that a favorable convection state occurs in the reaction solution. If the distance D from the inner surface of the reaction vessel 1 to the outer surface of the porous tubular support 3 is less than 2 mm, convection does not sufficiently develop, so that the synthetic raw material of zeolite is sufficiently deposited on the surface of the porous tubular support 3. Supply is too difficult. When the distance D is more than 25 mm, the temperature response of the reaction solution is too low, and it is difficult to control the temperature of the reaction solution.
- the height of the reaction vessel 1 is preferably 4 to 90 cm larger than the length of the porous tubular support 3. If the difference between the height of the reaction vessel 1 and the length of the porous tubular support 3 is less than 4 cm, even if the porous tubular support 3 is completely immersed in the reaction solution, favorable convection in the reaction solution is unlikely to occur. Even if the height of the reaction vessel 1 is made larger than the length of the porous tubular support 3 by more than 90 cm, a favorable effect due to the increase is not obtained, and it is useless.
- a zeolite membrane is not formed at this portion, but a zeolite composed of the porous tubular support 3 and a zeolite membrane formed on the surface thereof.

I will.
