Abstract

A microporous hydrophobic membrane for refinery produced wastewater have been extensively reviewed and discussed. Many investigations attempted the use of poly(vinylidene fluoride) PVDF hollow fiber membranes to separate the dilute oil-in-refinery wastewater. Using hydrophobic membranes, oil is normally produced as permeate. Hydrophilic membranes can produce water which was free of oil or reduced oil and organic matter content as permeate. PVDF was modified by chemical treatments in order to obtain a functionalized polymer suitable for preparation of membranes with improved the hydrophilicity and fouling resistance. The addition of organic or inorganic hydrophilic material in casting dope to prepare porous membranes by phase inversion method was an effective technique to improve the flux and amount of wastewater removal process. Membrane morphology, wastewater permeance, and membrane hydrophobicity were examined and compared to polymer casting dope. PVDF hollow fiber membranes were found to be an effective membrane material for treatment of refinery produced wastewater.
