Definitions
- Embodiments of the invention relate to the field of mitigation of fouling and scaling and the interruption of polarization by concentration in electromembrane (EM) processes such as conventional electrodialysis (ED), reversible electrodialysis (EDR, for its acronym in English “ Reversal Electrodialysis ", where the polarity is reversed every 15-30 minutes for self-cleaning of the membranes), electrodialysis with bipolar membranes (BMED), capacitive deionization (CDI), electrodeionization (EDI), reverse electrodialysis (RED, for its acronym in English “Reverse Electrodialysis", where saline gradients are used to obtain energy), microbial fuel cell systems (MFC), desalination with ion concentration polarization (ICP) and those improved operations associated with all the systems mentioned.
- ED electrodialysis
- EDR reversible electrodialysis
- BMED bipolar membranes
- CDI capacitive deionization
- EDI electrodeion
- polarization by concentration is an inherent phenomenon of MS processes that also restrict the operation of such systems.
- a limit is eventually reached due to concentration polarization.
- this value is called limit current density (LCD), which depends on many parameters, due to which it is usually determined empirically.
- LCD limit current density
- the pH becomes uncontrolled in the EM cell, due to the dissociation of the water, causing fouling and fouling problems.
- 80-90% of the LCD is applied. It is generally desirable to increase these LCD values in order to intensify the processes, decreasing the area of the membrane to be used and consequently the size of the equipment and the cost of capital.
- Patent application US 2016/228820 relates to a method for improving the performance of electrodialysis using different methods, among which the reverse polarity pulsed is described. The authors mention that the application of pulses is only for the cleaning of the electrodes and that it is not necessary to change the electronics and hydraulics of the systems. There is no reference to the use of any H-bridge, interruption of fouling and embedding on the surfaces of the membranes using asymmetric pulses, and the variation of the frequency, intensity and pulse width with respect to the electrical resistance of the cell when it is in operation.
- CN 104 022 676 discloses a method for producing square waves of asymmetric pulse using a half bridge configuration with MOSFETs and a power source.
- the circuitry differs completely with the configuration of an H-bridge (full bridge) powered by two sources of power.
- the purpose of the device is the generation of PWM (Pulse Width Modulation), with no mention of the application in EM processes.
- Patent application US 2014/0254204 relates to a DC / DC converter (direct current / direct current) based on a half bridge configuration to achieve a zero voltage operation, using asymmetric pulses.
- the circuitry and application described in this document completely differ from the present invention.
- an apparatus that allows to update the EM processes, decreasing the occurrence of fouling and incrustations, increasing the LCD value by disrupting the polarization phenomenon by concentration, and increasing the reversion cycle of electrical and hydraulic polarity in EDR.
- a pair of electrodes suitable for inversion of the polarity such as those with EDR, a second source of power and the described apparatus.
- This device can be integrated to power sources for the application of asymmetric pulses with reverse polarity with frequency, pulse width, and variable intensities.
- the term asymmetric refers to the variation of the frequency, width (time) and intensity of the pulses, in a dynamic way, according to the requirements of each system.
- Fouling in electromembrane technologies can be avoided by periodically inverting the electrical polarity with varying frequencies and intensities, as long as they have adequate inversion electrodes (both can be used as an anode or cathode), a second power source and a bipolar switch designed for this type of applications.
- Reverse polarity pulses interrupt the formation of new mineral encrustations and fouling with organic matter, avoiding the irreversible damage of the ion exchange membranes and bipolar membranes.
- the periodic pulses of inverse polarity interrupt the phenomenon of polarization by concentration, through the generation of turbulence, allowing an increase in the intensity of the process due to the higher current densities limits (LCD) that can be reached.
- the interruption of polarization by concentration helps to stabilize the pH values, decreasing consequently the appearance of incrustations.
- This bipolar switch is based on an H-bridge configuration, a technique used in electric motors to change the direction of rotation. This is the first time that an H-bridge has been used in electromembrane systems, and that the H-bridge is powered by two different power sources for adjusting the intensity of the reverse polarity pulses. Moreover, it is the first time that the frequency, intensities and pulse widths are adjusted automatically according to the characteristics of the process.
- the method allows the reversal of polarity in a variety of electromembrane systems, decreasing the addition of chemicals and the maintenance of these systems, increasing the stability and lifetime of the membranes, and intensifying the process (with high current densities). limit) through the disruption of the polarization phenomenon by concentration.
- the system described is composed of one or two sources of power (power or energy), a bipolar switch and an EM cell.
- the electromembrane cell is a general term that includes a variety of previously mentioned processes, where only one source of power is used if the pulse intensity is not adjusted and 2 sources of power are used if the pulse intensity is increased or if pauses are made.
- This cell contains two electrodes and a set of membranes, usually ion exchange membranes and / or bipolar membranes.
- the electrodes in the electromembrane cells must be suitable to work as a cathode and anode, reducing the risk of deterioration during polarity reversal.
- the second power source allows you to adjust the intensity of the pulses, if desired include that function
- the power source (s) delivers (n) power to the electromembrane cell through the bipolar switch.
- a direct current passes through the bipolar switch, controlling the direction of this current.
- the electrical energy is received by the electrodes where redox reactions are carried out.
- An electrochemical potential is generated in the electrodes, inducing the movement of ions towards different compartments of the cell, the dissociation of water molecules, etc.
- the electrochemical potential generated by the saline gradients can produce electrical energy, in this case, a fraction of the energy produced can be used for periodic self-cleaning of the membranes and as a method of cleaning protocols in situ (CIP). , for its acronym in English).
- Figure 1 is a schematic representation of an electromembrane process coupled to a bipolar switch to reverse the polarity periodically.
- Figure 2 is the circuitry of an H-bridge for the inversion of the polarity in the electromembrane processes, with variable intensity, using a second source of power.
- Figure 3A is an approximate voltage drop and / or electrical resistance through a membrane stack in conventional electromembrane processes, reversible electrodialysis and electromembrane systems with asymmetric reverse polarity pulses.
- Figure 3B is the approximate waveform applied as reverse polarity pulses, variable frequency and optionally use of high frequency pulses when performing conventional cleaning protocols.
- Figure 4A it is the EDR operation mode applying asymmetric polarity inversion pulses between each inversion cycle, keeping the automatic valves for hydraulic flow changes. The frequency of application of the pulses is variable, and pulses of high frequency can be used optionally when chemical washes of the membranes are made.
- Figure 4B is the operation mode of electromembrane processes applying asymmetric polarity inversion pulses, with variable frequency, and optional high frequency pulses when washing protocols are applied.
- Figure 5A is the updated EDR operation mode, applying asymmetric polarity reversal pulses with higher intensities than in normal operation, variable frequency, and optionally high frequency when cleaning protocols are performed in place.
- the system is pulsed between each investment cycle, maintaining the automatic valves for hydraulic flow changes.

- - a device that varies the frequency of application of reverse polarity and pulse width, according to the requirements of the system when the process runs; - one or two sources of power (1, 2) different from each other for adjusting the intensity of the pulses, to deliver energy to the electromembrane cell (4);
- microcontroller or a pulse generator, which will instruct the switch to change the polarity, according to process variables, where the microcontroller is integrated in the circuitry of the bipolar switch (3);
- bipolar switch (3) can be located inside the power sources (1, 2) or between the power sources (1, 2) and the electromembrane cell (4).
- the microcontroller can integrate process information and adjust the intensity, frequency and pulse width, according to the process requirement.
- a pulse generator can control the polarity reversal with a fixed frequency, intensity and pulse width, without the possibility of automatic adjustment according to the requirements of the process.
- Figure 1 shows a general view of an updated electromembrane process by using a bipolar switch 3 to periodically invert the polarity in cell 4.
- the intensity of the pulses can be adjusted with a second power source 2, while the operation normal is energized by 1.
- FIG. 2 is a schematic diagram of the main embodiment of this invention.
- a microcontroller or a pulse generator (not shown in the figure) controls the opening and closing of the H-bridge elements through the circuits 12, 13, 14 and 15, based on an optimum condition previously established for a process determined, or automated by continuous measurements of the voltage drop or electrical resistance in the electromembrane cell 4.
- the process is usually carried out with the power source 1, while the Power source 2 is used for the application of high intensity pulses. Both sources of power share the same land, 7.
- a power source 1 continuously promotes the electromembrane process in cell 4, with a defined current / voltage density.
- the electrode 5 works as an anode and the electrode 6 as a cathode.
- the solid state elements are at least four, 8, 9, 10 and 11. At this time, the elements 8 and 11 are closed, and 10 and 9 are open. All solid-state elements mentioned should have free-wheeling diodes to protect them from counter-electromotive forces, generated by the saline gradients between the compartments of the cell.
- a power source 1, promotes the electromembrane process in cell 4, when polarity inversion is applied using the second power source, 2, promoting the process by a short time with an intensity greater than that used with the power source 1.
- the electrode 5 functions as the cathode and the electrode 6 functions as the anode.
- the solid state elements 8 and 11 are open, and 9 and 10 are closed.
- This reversal of polarity can be programmed in the microcontroller or in the pulse generator.
- the reversal of polarity can be considered as a pulse with an application frequency of 10 "2 to 10 3 Hz and a pulse width varying between 10 " 5 to 10 ° seconds.
- the frequency, pulse width and amplitude or intensity are parameters that must be defined depending on the occurrence of the incrustations and the chemical nature of the precipitates. If power source 1 is used in both normal operation and reversal of polarity, the pulse width and / or frequency must be variable to maintain optimal performance of the electromembrane process in terms of mitigation of fouling or fouling. , throughout the entire operating time. If the purpose of the pulses is only the intensification of the process through the interruption of the polarization by concentration, the frequency of the applied pulses can be kept fixed.
- a power source 1, promotes the electromembrane process in cell 4 when a pause is applied (off state). At this time all solid state elements 8 to 11 are open for the corresponding pause time.
- the pauses can be considered as a pulse applied every 10 ° to 10 3 seconds, depending on the voltage drop of the cell and the pulse width.
- the pause time would depend on the nature of the precipitates or scale in the selected electromembrane process.
- a typical pulse width value is between 10 "2 to 10 3 seconds
- the described apparatus is capable of performing pulse pauses, but it is preferable to apply pulses of inverse polarity in terms of intensity, to lose the least possible working time and decrease the size of the systems and consequently the capital cost.
- Figure 3A is an approximate voltage drop or electrical resistance through an EM cell at 17, EDR at 18, and for EM with asymmetric polarity reversal at 19.
- the rate of fouling and fouling depends on the composition of the liquid streams processed, physical-chemical conditions such as pH and temperature, and the availability of previous treatments.
- the frequency of the applied pulses depends on the fouling on the surfaces of the membranes. Typical values vary between 10 "2 to 10 3 Hz. For example: if the membranes become dirty, the electrical resistance of the membrane stack will increase with the consequent higher voltage drop across the cell. electrical resistance reaches a defined threshold value, 21, the device will detect it and reverse the polarity for a short period (pulse width) that varies from 10 "5 to 10 ° seconds, in order to disturb the precipitation on the surface of the membranes When this electromembrane process is continuous, the membranes will be more prone to get dirty with the time of the operation, therefore, the frequency of applied pulses would increase gradually until reaching a defined value, 20.
- a high frequency pulsation (cleaning) of about 10 1 to 10 7 Hz is applied by 10 "1 a 10 4 seconds, preferably together with traditional CIP protocols to restore dirty or embedded membranes.
- a high frequency pulsation (cleaning) of about 10 1 to 10 7 Hz is applied by 10 "1 a 10 4 seconds, preferably together with traditional CIP protocols to restore dirty or embedded membranes.
- the polarity can be inverted permanently, to work in this polarity as a normal operation. This permanent investment can be made only if the work system is EDR with the corresponding change of hydraulic flows.
- Figure 3B is the approximate waveform of an electromembrane process, with an operating amplitude A1 in normal operation.
- the working frequency, F1 varies between 10 "2 to 10 3 Hz, until reaching a predefined threshold value of frequency, with a higher value than at the beginning of the process, corresponding to an indication for a deep cleaning in 20.
- the frequency optionally changes to higher values in F2, with values ranging from 10 1 to 10 7 Hz, with a variable amplitude, A2, with short pulse widths with values ranging from 10 "8 to 10 " 2 seconds , and for the treatment time T2, determined for the complete recovery of the function of the membranes, based on the optimal operation and the use of chemicals for CIP
- the working frequency, F1 will return to conditions This is done until the predefined threshold frequency is reached again
- the amplitude of the A3 pulses is preferably above the voltage / current density used in normal operation, although it is necessary to avoid high voltage values (supe less than 3V per membrane) due to the evolution of ozone, that can damage the membranes.
- the pulse width, T3, varies according to the amplitude A3.
- A3 is equal to A1.
- A3 is equal to 0.
- the amplitude of the A3 pulses will define the pulse width T3. Then, if A3 is reduced in amplitude, the value of T3 must increase to ensure the disruption of the new precipitates, and working time in T1 will be lost. Examples:
- the following examples use the bipolar switch coupled to electromembrane systems to change the polarity of the system by preferably programming a microcontroller, or a pulse generator in its absence.
- the bipolar switch can ideally be integrated within the power source or physically located as an extra component between the power source and the electromembrane cell.
- the second option is preferred for the update of already installed processes.
- the working frequency can be dynamic, varying between 10 "2 to 10 3 Hz, depending on the occurrence of fouling and incrustations. If the purpose of the application of pulses is the intensification of the process, then the frequency can be keep fixed, using the same previously mentioned frequency range
- the threshold values of the voltage drop / current resistance which indicate the moment to invert the polarity as a pulse, are determined based on said values of normal operation, with values which are between 1, 1 to 10 times the normal operation values.
- the threshold value of the frequency is chosen when the cycle of Work is between 80.0 to 99.9%, which indicates the time to thoroughly clean the membranes with CIP procedures. This value can be optimized for each system.
- a duty cycle of 80.0% means that 20.0% of the time is in a reverse polarity condition. This work cycle is calculated based on the reverse pulse width and the pulse frequency.
- the chemical composition of the treated streams, the physicochemical parameters, the characteristics of the membranes, the operating time, among other variables, will define all these mentioned values and should be optimized for each specific process.
- a bipolar switch with a dedicated microcontroller can acquire the related information such as voltage drop, current density and electrical resistance to evaluate the optimal time to press and clean the system, all in an automated way.
- Example 1 Example 1 :
- Figure 4A is the EDR update using pulses of inverse polarity.
- a defined threshold frequency, F4 is the indication for the permanent reversal of polarity with change of hydraulic flows in 23.
- F4 is the indication for the permanent reversal of polarity with change of hydraulic flows in 23.
- a high pulsation frequency with values of between 10 1 to 10 can optionally be applied 7 Hz for 10 1 to 10 4 seconds.
- the amplitude, A4, or intensity of the treatment in the work period is equal to the amplitude of pulses A5, because only one power source, 1, is delivering power to the EDR cell, 22.
- the pulse width, T4 it can be variable, and its value will depend on the characteristics of the process.
- Figure 4B shows the update of the electromembrane processes using pulses of inverse polarity.
- a defined threshold frequency, F4 is the indication for CIP at 20.
- the amplitude, A4, or intensity of the operation is equal to the amplitude of the applied pulses, A5, because only one power source, 1, is energizing the system.
- the requirement for this update is the bipolar switch, 3, and a pair of suitable electrodes, 5 and 6, for reversing the polarity of cell 4.
- Figure 5A is the EDR update using reverse polarity pulses with intensities greater than normal operation.
- a defined frequency, F4 is the indication for the permanent inversion of polarity with the change of the hydraulic flows in 23.
- a high frequency of pulsations can be applied optionally, with values hovering around 10 1 to 10 7 Hz for 10 1 to 10 4 seconds.
- the amplitude, A6, or intensity of the treatment in the work period is different than the amplitude of the pulses, A7, because two sources of power, 1 and 2, are feeding the system.
- the amplitude of the pulses, A7 can be high intensity to disturb the precipitate in short times.
- the amplitude of these pulses, A7 can be 0 to work as pauses, although this mode is not recommended if the purpose is the intensification of the process and the self-cleaning of the system. Consequently, the pulse width or pulse time, T5, will be short when the intensity is increased and more extensive if the intensity is decreased, to achieve similar results in terms of perturbation in the formation of precipitates or disruption of the polarization phenomenon by concentration.
- This update It allows an extension in the working time between the electric and hydraulic polarity inversion cycles of EDR, the reduction of the loss of productivity due to the mixture of the liquid flows and the time of change of the hydraulic system.
- the requirement for this mode of operation is the bipolar switch 3, and the second power source, 2.
- Figure 5B shows the update of the electromembrane processes using pulses of reverse polarity with intensities greater than normal operation.
- the second power source, 2 guarantees good performance and stability when the polarity is changed.
- the amplitude of the pulses, A7 can be high intensity to easily disturb the precipitates on the surfaces of the membranes. Pauses can also be applied if the amplitude of A7 is 0, although this mode of operation is less intensive for self-cleaning or to increase the limit current densities. Consequently, the pulse width of the pulses, T5, will be narrower with high intensities and wider if the intensity is decreased, to achieve the same effect in a periodic cleaning.
- the requirements for this operation are a second source of power 2, the bipolar switch 3, and a pair of suitable electrodes to reverse the polarity, 5 and 6.
