Adjust the water PH to 10.5~12, and temperature to
35~45℃,
then  membrane contactor can used for
deammonia, product water ammonia content can be decreased to 0.5mg/L.

membrane contactor is a kind of special hydrophobic
hollow fiber array made of polymer material. Then the array is spiral-wounded
onto a water distribution tube, and then the tube is installed into a housing
(at the same time, a baffler is formulated inside the housing).

Features
of  membrane contactor:

1) Hollow
fibers are knitted into an array, so that a certain space can be kept between
these fibers. In this way, thousands of fibers are connected as a whole array
which can resist strong water flow and will not break. Besides, the mass
transfer efficiency can be improved in the array structure.

2) High fiber
density makes it possible of ultimate gas removal from water;

3) Central
tube water distribution + Middle baffler structure, change the water flow
direction to flush vertically towards hollow fibers, which can improve the mass
transfer efficiency between shell side and lumen side.

 

Working
principle of deammonium membrane

NH4+ has the following equilibrium in water:

NH4++OH- ←→ NH3+H2O

In typical operation, wastewater flows in the shell
side of membrane, while acid adsorption solution flows in the lumen side of
membrane.

With the increase of temperature and PH in water, the
equilibrium favors the formation of free NH3 gas. NH3 gas can
permeate through the micro pores from shell side to lumen side, then act with
acid:

2NH3 + H2SO4 → (NH4)2SO4

Keep the water PH above 10, and temperature above 35℃ (below 45℃), then the NH4+ in the shell side will be changed to NH3 constantly
and permeate to the lumen side, then be reacted to NH4+. By these reactions,
NH4+ content in wastewater can be decreased to the satisfied level. At the
same time, pure (NH4)2SO4 is generated in the lumen side, which can be
recycled.

Remarks: the equipment in dotted line is replaced
by membrane contactor

membrane contactor deammonia system has the
following advantages compared with traditional ammoniua removal technology:

1)
High removal efficiency of ammonia nitrate, NH4+-N can be
decreased to below 1ppm. And the removal efficiency can be accurately fixed
based on practical condition;

2)
NH4+-N stripping and adsorption in one step, to get a
smaller footprint, less than 1/3 of tradition process;

3)
Modular design, easy for transportation and capacity extension;

4)
It offers a closed operation environment, which can ensure no NH3 leakage
and cleaning production.
