Development of a membrane-based process for the treatment of oily waste waters. [Quarterly] technical report, March 5--June 4, 1994
The overall goal of this program is to develop a system based on reverse-osmosis (RO) membranes that can treat oily water economically. This system will be based on the use of thin-film-composite (TFC) membranes that consist of a selective coating placed on a solvent-resistant hollow-fiber support. For this program, we plan to develop solvent-resistant hollow-fiber supports and coat them with a ``loose RO`` coating. We developed the coating, which is designated TTM, in previous work for the treatment of oily waste waters. During this reporting period, work was focused on arranging for a demonstration test of this technology. Due to unforeseen delays in installing the equipment at the demonstration site, only limited experiments could be performed during this reporting period. During the next reporting period, we plan to begin long-term testing at the demonstration-test site. The demonstration test and the final report are the only tasks remaining in this program.
