Description

低分子有機物含有水の処理方法および処理システムMethod and system for treating water containing low molecular organic matter
 本発明は、逆浸透膜を用いる、低分子有機物を含有する低分子有機物含有水の処理方法および処理システムに関する。 The present invention relates to a treatment method and a treatment system for low molecular organic substance-containing water containing a low molecular organic substance using a reverse osmosis membrane.
 逆浸透膜(RO膜)の透過水質改善等のための改質方法は数多く存在する。その中でも、逆浸透膜に臭素を含む遊離塩素を所定の時間接触させて性能を改善する方法がある。 There are many reforming methods for improving the quality of the permeated water of the reverse osmosis membrane (RO membrane). Among them, there is a method for improving performance by bringing a free chlorinated bromine into contact with a reverse osmosis membrane for a predetermined time.
 例えば、特許文献1には、ポリアミドスキン層を有する逆浸透膜エレメントを搭載した膜分離装置において、逆浸透膜エレメントを膜分離装置内の圧力容器に充填した後、前記逆浸透膜エレメントに臭素を含む遊離塩素水溶液を接触させる逆浸透膜エレメントの処理方法が記載されている。 For example, in Patent Document 1, in a membrane separation apparatus equipped with a reverse osmosis membrane element having a polyamide skin layer, after filling the reverse osmosis membrane element into a pressure vessel in the membrane separation apparatus, bromine is added to the reverse osmosis membrane element. A method for treating a reverse osmosis membrane element in which a free chlorine aqueous solution is brought into contact is described.
 しかし、特許文献1の方法では、一時的な水質改善はできるが、臭素を含む遊離塩素水溶液を長期的に通水すると、逆浸透膜が劣化し、水質が低下する。 However, the method of Patent Document 1 can temporarily improve the water quality, but if a free chlorine aqueous solution containing bromine is passed for a long time, the reverse osmosis membrane deteriorates and the water quality decreases.
 特に被処理水が低分子(例えば、分子量200以下)有機物を含む場合、逆浸透膜は低分子有機物の阻止率が低いため、高い阻止率で逆浸透膜処理することができる処理方法が求められている。 In particular, when the water to be treated contains a low molecular weight organic substance (for example, a molecular weight of 200 or less), since the reverse osmosis membrane has a low rejection rate for low molecular organic substances, a treatment method capable of performing a reverse osmosis membrane treatment with a high rejection rate is required. ing.

 図1の処理システム1および図2の処理システム3において、臭素系酸化剤とスルファミン酸化合物とを含む安定化次亜臭素酸組成物をポリアミド系の逆浸透膜に接触させて改質された逆浸透膜を用いることによって、低分子有機物を含有する被処理水を、高い阻止率で逆浸透膜処理することができる。この改質方法により、逆浸透膜の劣化を抑制しつつ、逆浸透膜の阻止率を向上させ、透過水質を改善することができる。安定化次亜臭素酸組成物がポリアミド系の逆浸透膜を劣化させることがほとんどないため、一時的な水質改善ではなく、安定化次亜臭素酸組成物を含む水を長期的にポリアミド系の逆浸透膜に通水して接触しても、逆浸透膜の劣化が抑制され、逆浸透膜の阻止率の低下、すなわち水質の低下が抑制される。 In the treatment system 1 of FIG. 1 and the treatment system 3 of FIG. 2, the modified hypobromite composition containing a bromine-based oxidant and a sulfamic acid compound is contacted with a polyamide-based reverse osmosis membrane and modified reverse. By using the osmosis membrane, the water to be treated containing the low-molecular organic substance can be subjected to the reverse osmosis membrane treatment with a high rejection rate. By this reforming method, it is possible to improve the reverse osmosis membrane rejection rate and improve the permeated water quality while suppressing the deterioration of the reverse osmosis membrane. Since the stabilized hypobromite composition hardly degrades the polyamide-based reverse osmosis membrane, the water containing the stabilized hypobromite composition is not used for a long time. Even if water is passed through and contacted with the reverse osmosis membrane, the deterioration of the reverse osmosis membrane is suppressed, and the reduction in the rejection rate of the reverse osmosis membrane, that is, the reduction in water quality is suppressed.

 本実施形態に係る低分子有機物含有水の処理方法および処理システムにおける逆浸透膜の改質において、さらにアルカリを存在させてもよい。アルカリとしては、水酸化ナトリウム、水酸化カリウム等の水酸化アルカリ等が挙げられる。低温時の製品安定性等の点から、水酸化ナトリウムと水酸化カリウムとを併用してもよい。また、アルカリは、固形でなく、水溶液として用いてもよい。 In the modification of the reverse osmosis membrane in the method and system for treating low molecular organic substance-containing water according to this embodiment, an alkali may be further present. Examples of the alkali include alkali hydroxides such as sodium hydroxide and potassium hydroxide. From the viewpoint of product stability at low temperatures, sodium hydroxide and potassium hydroxide may be used in combination. Further, the alkali is not solid and may be used as an aqueous solution.
 本実施形態に係る低分子有機物含有水の処理方法および処理システムにおける逆浸透膜の改質方法は、逆浸透膜として昨今主流であるポリアミド系高分子膜に適用することができる。ポリアミド系高分子膜は、酸化剤に対する耐性が比較的低く、遊離塩素等をポリアミド系高分子膜に連続的に接触させると、膜性能の著しい低下が起こる。しかしながら、安定化次亜臭素酸組成物を用いる逆浸透膜の改質方法ではポリアミド高分子膜においても、このような著しい膜性能の低下はほとんど起こらない。 The treatment method for low molecular organic substance-containing water and the modification method for the reverse osmosis membrane in the treatment system according to the present embodiment can be applied to polyamide polymer membranes that are currently mainstream as reverse osmosis membranes. Polyamide polymer membranes have a relatively low resistance to oxidizing agents, and when free chlorine or the like is continuously brought into contact with the polyamide polymer membrane, the membrane performance is significantly reduced. However, in the method for reforming a reverse osmosis membrane using a stabilized hypobromite composition, such a remarkable decrease in membrane performance hardly occurs even in a polyamide polymer membrane.
 本実施形態に係る低分子有機物含有水の処理方法および処理システムにおける逆浸透膜の改質方法において、ポリアミド系の逆浸透膜への安定化次亜臭素酸組成物の接触が、被処理水のpHより低いpHで行われることが好ましい。逆浸透膜の改質後、被処理水の通水のときに安定化次亜臭素酸組成物をスライム抑制剤として連続添加した場合、被処理水のpHが改質のときのpHよりも高い(すなわち、改質のときのpHが被処理水のpHよりも低い)と、改質効果が維持され、被処理水の透過流量の変動を抑制することができる。逆浸透膜の改質後、被処理水の通水のときに安定化次亜臭素酸組成物をスライム抑制剤として連続添加した場合、被処理水のpHが改質のときのpHよりも低い(すなわち、改質のときのpHが被処理水のpHよりも高い)と、改質効果と被処理水の透過流量の変動が起こる場合がある。ポリアミド系の逆浸透膜への安定化次亜臭素酸組成物の接触は、例えば、pH3超、8未満の範囲で行われ、またはpH4~6.5の範囲で行われる。安定化次亜臭素酸組成物の接触のときのpHが低いほど、膜の改質効果が高くなり、阻止率が向上し、透過水質を改善することができる。 In the method for treating a low molecular organic substance-containing water according to the present embodiment and the method for modifying a reverse osmosis membrane in a treatment system, the contact of the stabilized hypobromite composition with the polyamide-based reverse osmosis membrane is treated water. It is preferable to be carried out at a pH lower than pH. After the reverse osmosis membrane modification, when the stabilized hypobromite composition is continuously added as a slime inhibitor when the treated water is passed, the pH of the treated water is higher than the pH during the modification. If the pH during the reforming is lower than the pH of the water to be treated, the reforming effect is maintained and fluctuations in the permeate flow rate of the water to be treated can be suppressed. After the reverse osmosis membrane modification, when the stabilized hypobromite composition is continuously added as a slime inhibitor when the treated water is passed, the pH of the treated water is lower than the pH at the time of the modification. If the pH during the reforming is higher than the pH of the water to be treated, the reforming effect and the flow rate of the water to be treated may fluctuate. The contact of the stabilized hypobromite composition with the polyamide-based reverse osmosis membrane is performed, for example, in the range of more than pH 3, less than 8, or in the range of pH 4 to 6.5. The lower the pH at the time of contact with the stabilized hypobromite composition, the higher the membrane reforming effect, the higher the rejection, and the permeated water quality.
 逆浸透膜装置において、逆浸透膜への給水のpH5.5以上でスケールが発生する場合には、スケール抑制のために分散剤を安定化次亜臭素酸組成物と併用してもよい。分散剤としては、例えば、ポリアクリル酸、ポリマレイン酸、ホスホン酸等が挙げられる。分散剤の給水への添加量は、例えば、RO濃縮水中の濃度として0.1~1,000mg/Lの範囲である。 In the reverse osmosis membrane device, when scale is generated at pH 5.5 or higher of the water supplied to the reverse osmosis membrane, a dispersant may be used in combination with the stabilized hypobromite composition for scale suppression. Examples of the dispersant include polyacrylic acid, polymaleic acid, and phosphonic acid. The amount of the dispersant added to the feed water is, for example, in the range of 0.1 to 1,000 mg / L as the concentration in the RO concentrated water.
 また、分散剤を使用せずにスケールの発生を抑制するためには、例えば、RO濃縮水中のシリカ濃度を溶解度以下に、カルシウムスケールの指標であるランゲリア指数を0以下になるように、逆浸透膜装置の回収率等の運転条件を調整することが挙げられる。 In addition, in order to suppress the occurrence of scale without using a dispersant, for example, reverse osmosis is performed so that the silica concentration in RO concentrated water is less than the solubility and the Langeria index, which is a calcium scale index, is less than 0. Adjusting the operating conditions such as the recovery rate of the membrane device.
 逆浸透膜装置の用途としては、例えば、純水製造、海水淡水化、排水回収等が挙げられる。 Examples of the use of the reverse osmosis membrane device include pure water production, seawater desalination, and wastewater collection.

 また、本実施形態に係るポリアミド系逆浸透膜用改質剤組成物は、「臭素系酸化剤とスルファミン酸化合物との反応生成物」を含む安定化次亜臭素酸組成物を含有するものであり、さらにアルカリを含有してもよい。 Further, the polyamide reverse osmosis membrane modifier composition according to the present embodiment contains a stabilized hypobromite composition containing a “reaction product of a bromine-based oxidant and a sulfamic acid compound”.

 臭素系酸化剤、臭素化合物、塩素系酸化剤およびスルファミン酸化合物については、上述した通りである。 The bromine-based oxidizing agent, bromine compound, chlorine-based oxidizing agent, and sulfamic acid compound are as described above.
 本実施形態に係るポリアミド系逆浸透膜用改質剤組成物としては、ポリアミド系逆浸透膜をより劣化させず、RO透過水への有効ハロゲンのリーク量がより少ないため、臭素と、スルファミン酸化合物とを含有するもの(臭素とスルファミン酸化合物の混合物を含有するもの)、例えば、臭素とスルファミン酸化合物とアルカリと水との混合物、または、臭素とスルファミン酸化合物との反応生成物を含有するもの、例えば、臭素とスルファミン酸化合物との反応生成物と、アルカリと、水との混合物が好ましい。 As the polyamide-based reverse osmosis membrane modifier composition according to this embodiment, since the polyamide-based reverse osmosis membrane is not further deteriorated and the amount of effective halogen leaked into RO permeated water is smaller, bromine and sulfamic acid Containing a compound (containing a mixture of bromine and sulfamic acid compound), for example, containing a mixture of bromine, sulfamic acid compound, alkali and water, or a reaction product of bromine and sulfamic acid compound Preferred are, for example, a mixture of a reaction product of bromine and a sulfamic acid compound, an alkali and water.
 本実施形態に係るポリアミド系逆浸透膜用改質剤組成物は、次亜塩素酸や、臭素を含む遊離塩素等の改質剤と比較すると、ポリアミド系の逆浸透膜の改質効果を有しながらも、次亜塩素酸や、臭素を含む遊離塩素のような著しい膜劣化をほとんど引き起こすことがない。通常の使用濃度では、膜劣化への影響は実質的に無視することができる。このため、ポリアミド系の逆浸透膜の改質剤としては最適である。 The polyamide-based reverse osmosis membrane modifier composition according to the present embodiment has an effect of modifying a polyamide-based reverse osmosis membrane as compared with a modifier such as hypochlorous acid or free chlorine containing bromine. However, it hardly causes significant film deterioration such as hypochlorous acid and free chlorine containing bromine. At normal use concentrations, the effect on film degradation can be substantially ignored. Therefore, it is optimal as a modifier for polyamide-based reverse osmosis membranes.
 本実施形態に係るポリアミド系逆浸透膜用改質剤組成物は、次亜塩素酸や、臭素を含む遊離塩素等とは異なり、逆浸透膜をほとんど透過しないため、処理水水質への影響がほとんどない。また、次亜塩素酸等と同様に現場で濃度を測定することができるため、より正確な濃度管理が可能である。 The polyamide-based reverse osmosis membrane modifier composition according to the present embodiment, unlike hypochlorous acid, free chlorine containing bromine and the like, hardly permeates the reverse osmosis membrane, and therefore has an effect on the quality of treated water. rare. Further, since the concentration can be measured on site in the same manner as hypochlorous acid or the like, more accurate concentration management is possible.
 改質剤組成物のpHは、例えば、13.0超であり、13.2超であることがより好ましい。改質剤組成物のpHが13.0以下であると改質剤組成物中の有効ハロゲンが不安定になる場合がある。 The pH of the modifier composition is, for example, more than 13.0, and more preferably more than 13.2.
