This study used NF270 nanofiltration membranes and SDS-stabilized hexadecane to investigate the membrane fouling mechanisms by highly saline oil-water emulsions. The research found that oil caused a sudden decrease in permeate flux only for more saline feeds, and over the longer term, the additional hydraulic resistance due to a layer of oil droplets on the membrane surface became the dominant fouling mechanism.
This study employed NF270 nanofiltration membranes and SDS-stabilized hexadecane to identify mechanisms of membrane fouling by highly saline oil-water emulsions. Concentration dependencies of NaCl reflection coefficient sigma and NaCl permeability coefficient B were measured and used to determine the separate contributions of osmotic pressure and fouling to the overall flux decline. The NaCl permeability coefficient asymptotically converged to the same steady state value across a range of feed salinities and concentration polarization conditions. The measured near-hyperbolic dependence of the reflection coefficient on the transmembrane concentration differential (sigma Delta pi(m) approximate to const) negated the effect of concentration polarization on permeate flux. Oil caused an abrupt decrease in permeate flux but only for more saline feeds (seawater level and higher), which was interpreted as a result of membrane surface sealing by coalesced oil. Headloss analysis showed that over the longer term, the additional hydraulic resistance due to a layer of oil droplets on the membrane surface became the dominant fouling mechanism.
