Abstract:
|
An innovative proposal of tangento-axial filtration based on the concept of macromembrane (large size) is presented in the context of micro- and ultrafiltration ceramic membranes. The macromembrane is made of Al2O3–TiO2 by slip casting. It includes an internal system for rotating the fluid trough a propeller which enhances the tangento-axial filtration. This filtration yields better than the cross-flow filtration in conventional extruded ceramic tubes of small diameter. The reasons are, first, its larger sizes relative to the extruded tubular filters, and second, that it can work at higher pressures, resulting in better operational performance. Furthermore, costs of industrial-scale production could be lower. In this study, the conceptual basis, pilot plant, first experimental results, and proposals for improvement of the system to continue the project are presented. |
