TLDR
In this paper, a polyamide membrane cell was used for microfiltration of industrial oily wastewater, and the results showed that micro-filtration was an efficient and ecologically suited technology for the treatment of industrial odour.
Abstract
Microfiltration of industrial oily wastewater was performed using polyamide membrane. A rectangular cross flow membrane cell was used for the experiments. Effects of different operating parameters such as transmembrane pressure drop and Reynolds numbers on the steady state permeate flux and oil rejection was investigated in detail. Initial oil concentration in the industrial oil-water emulsion was found to be 192 mg/L with average oil droplet range size 0.01 to 47 µm. The treated industrial oily water was characterized in terms of electrical conductivity, total dissolved solids (TDS), and chemical oxygen demand (COD). It was observed that the steady state permeate flux increased with transmembrane pressure drop and Reynolds numbers. The oil concentration in permeate was found to be around 4.5 mg/L, after treatment, which was lower than the permissible discharge limit. The results showed that microfiltration was an efficient and ecologically suited technology for the treatment of industrial oily wastewater...
