Abstract:
Separation technique by membrane technology has been widely applied for separation and purification of minor components from vegetable oil. Membrane was prepared and modified in several way in order to improve the filtration performance in purification process of vegetable oil. In this work, the filtration performance of three types of polyethersulfone hollow fiber membrane was investigated. The main objective of this research was to study the effect of membranes type on the filtration performance of tocopherol solution. Three series of filtration experiment were conducted by using fabricated membrane by dissolving of polyethersulfone (PES) in N-methyl pyrrolydone (NMP) with different polymer composition. The membranes was M1 = PES 20 % + NMP, M2 = PES 18 % + NMP, and M3= PES 20 %+ Polyvinyl pyrrolidone (PVP 5 %) + NMP. The difference structure of membrans was confirmed by scanning electron microscopy measurement. The permeability profile of tocopherol solution of 500 ppm was observed by using a single module of hollow fiber membrane with filtration flow of pressure driven inside (PDI). It is shown that, the permeability of tocopherol solution was maximum and stable using PES membrane was composed by M3 system. Moreover, the improvement of tocopherol concentration in retentate solution was about two times higher than that the original solution that was obtained from filtration system of M1 membrane.ABSTRAKTeknik separasi dengan membran teknologi telah diaplikasikan secara luas untuk pemisahan dan pemurnian komponen minor dari minyak tumbuh-tumbuhan.

Abstract:
One of the technologies for ethanol-water separation is pervaporation. The principles of pervaporation is based on the difference in diffusional rate and solubility of the solution components in membranes. The performance of the membrane, in terms of flux and selectivity, is influenced by the swelling of the membrane due to the interaction between the solution components and the membrane materials. Membrane modification is done by forming chemical bonding between PVA and chitosan, using glutaraldehyde as crosslinking agent. The performance of the PVA-chitosan crosslinked membrane for ethanol-water separation is characterized by high mass flux and reasonably high selectivity. Pressure observed on the permeate side was 0.5 mbar, with a feed ethanol concentration of 93%. Experimental results indicate that the PVA membrane has a higher degree of swelling compared to the crosslinked PVA-chitosan membrane. The PVA-chitosan crosslinked membrane has a higher selectivity compared to the PVA membrane. The highest flux of 0.833 kgm-2hour-1 was produced by the PVA membrane. The highest selectivity of 2.820 was obtained using a 1:1 PVA-chitosan crosslinked membrane.Keywords: PVA-chitosan; crosslinked; pervaporation Abstrak Salah satu teknologi untuk pemisahan etanol-air adalah pervaporasi.

Abstract:
Fluoropolymer membranes are applied in membrane operations such as membrane distillation and membrane crystallization where hydrophobic porous membranes act as a physical barrier separating two phases. Due to their hydrophobic nature, only gaseous molecules are allowed to pass through the membrane and are collected on the permeate side, while the aqueous solution cannot penetrate. However, these two processes suffer problems such as membrane wetting, fouling or scaling. Membrane wetting is a common and undesired phenomenon, which is caused by the loss of hydrophobicity of the porous membrane employed. This greatly affects the mass transfer efficiency and separation efficiency. Simultaneously, membrane fouling occurs, along with membrane wetting and scaling, which greatly reduces the lifespan of the membranes. Therefore, strategies to improve the hydrophobicity of membranes have been widely investigated by researchers. In this direction, hydrophobic fluoropolymer membrane materials are employed more and more for membrane distillation and membrane crystallization thanks to their high chemical and thermal resistance. This paper summarizes different preparation methods of these fluoropolymer membrane, such as non-solvent-induced phase separation (NIPS), thermally-induced phase separation (TIPS), vapor-induced phase separation (VIPS), etc. Hydrophobic modification methods, including surface coating, surface grafting and blending, etc., are also introduced. Moreover, the research advances on the application of less toxic solvents for preparing these membranes are herein reviewed. This review aims to provide guidance to researchers for their future membrane development in membrane distillation and membrane crystallization, using fluoropolymer materials.

Abstract:
The PhD research program was focused of the development of new hydrophobic membranes suitable for membrane distillation (MD) operation. In particular, the preparation of polymeric flat sheet membranes via nonsolvent induced phase separation (NIPS) technique was investigated. This method allows to fine-tune a large number of variables in order to obtain membranes with an ample variety of different morphologies and properties. Therefore, a systematic study on the important factors affecting the membrane structure, which in turn determines the distillation performance, was carried out. The selected polymer was polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF), the solvent was dimethylformamide (DMF). First, the effect of the dope solution composition was evaluated. The polymer amount was found to be a key element in defining the porosity and the pore size of the final membrane. Moreover, a minimum critical concentration required to obtain a proper structure was identified on the basis of the dope solution viscosity. In fact, at lower concentrations brittle or defective films were produced. Another important preparation parameter thoroughly investigated was the coagulation bath strength. Harsh nonsolvents induce fast precipitation creating a dense skin above a macrovoid-dominated layer, while weak coagulation media promote a delayed demixing and generate uniform and symmetric structures. Using a semi crystalline polymer such as PVDF, the precipitation rate becomes even more important because it also influences the crystallization of the polymer. The strength of the coagulation bath was regulated by adding different amounts of ethanol to the water bath, from 0% up to 96% v/v. Optimization of this parameter allowed to prepare almost superhydrophobic membranes that were able to withstand the pressure and temperature conditions during vacuum membrane distillation (VMD) tests and to deliver high distillate fluxes and total salt rejection when treating a concentrated NaCl solution. A different approach to improve the membrane performance was exploited in further phase of activity. Different kinds of pore forming agents – such as polyethylene glycols and lithium chloride – were added to the dope solution in order to enhance the porosity and control the pore size. Since the support material can act as an added mass transfer resistance, it was decided to cast these membranes without any reinforcement. However, the absence of any rigid support caused severe shrinkage phenomena during the drying of the membranes leading to an almost complete collapse of the porous structure. It was found that the structure could be preserved by simply clamping the wet membrane on a stiff planar surface and leaving it to dry at room temperature. The amount and type of the additive had impacts on both kinetic and thermodynamic factors governing the phase separation process. By adjusting the dope solution composition, it was possible to favour one or the other to obtain membranes with the desired structure and performance. These unsupported membranes were not able to bear the pressure difference normally applied during VMD, therefore they were tested using a direct contact membrane distillation (DCMD) setup. Since the presence of the support material is mandatory for VMD application, the effect of different kinds of supports was investigated. In particular, several commercial nonwovens were used to prepare PVDF membranes based on the knowledge acquired during the first phase of the PhD activity. Moreover, along with the nonwovens, three polymeric nets, characterized by different structure and made with different polymers, were tested as possible supports. While the commercial nonwovens did not alter too much the performance and morphology of the PVDF membranes, using the nets some remarkable effects were registered. The alternation between holes and crests of the nets caused the formation of membranes with zones having different porosities. The VMD tests highlighted the better performance of the nonwoven casted membranes. However, the patterned surface of the net supported membranes resulted in lower flux decline when a concentrated NaCl solution was used as feed. Polymeric membranes are the most studied type for MD application both for the easy processability and the low production costs. Moreover, the commonly used polymers can withstand the normal operation conditions for desalination or wastewater treatment applications. However, the possibility of producing membranes able to resist higher temperatures and pressures would open the way to new MD applications. One of the possible paths to reach this goal is the exploitation of ceramic membranes. Ceramic material are nevertheless naturally hydrophilic and surface modification procedures must be carried out in order to turn such membranes hydrophobic. Therefore, the reaction between the surface hydroxyl groups of alumina commercial membranes and a silanizing agent was exploited. By changing the reaction conditions, it was possible to obtain highly hydrophobic membranes without affecting the initial pore size and porosity. This functionalizing surface layer proved to be stable up to 400°C which would allow to cover any possible MD operation condition.

Abstract:
The employment of tubular hydrophobic carbon-based titania membranes in sweeping gas membrane distillation (SGMD) was studied in this PhD thesis. The characterization of some of the membrane morphological properties was implemented by experimental and modeled results of gas permeation tests. The dusty gas model was adopted in gas permeation modeling. Two different approaches were followed during modeling. The first approach considered the morphological properties of each single membrane layer. As for the second approach, average membrane morphological properties were characterized without considering the unique contribution of each layer. The investigation of the module performance during SGMD operations was achieved by experimental and modeling studies for NaCl (aq.). The model considered the Knudsen and molecular diffusion mechanisms. The module was capable of undergoing experiments at temperatures up to 110°C. Experimental flux results went in agreement with the modeled values obtained on using the morphological properties of each membrane layer. On the contrary, the modeled values obtained on considering average membrane morphological properties deviated significantly from the experimental results. The model was also used to estimate the effect of the operating conditions and flow configuration on water flux. Other modeling studies of the modules were performed for ethanol (aq.) to predict the effect of the operating conditions on the membrane selectivity. The Maxwell-Stefan approach was followed in this case. Eventually, a hypothetical sweater desalination process was proposed incorporating SGMD (using the modules studied in this thesis) as the desalination unit. Process development and optimization were carried out. The optimized case corresponded to SGMD liquid inlet temperature of 107°C for an SGMD vessel having a length of 5.4 m. This corresponded to a water production cost of 20.9 $/m3 such that the feed heating was the determinant cost item. This cost could be mitigated in case of using a waste heat source.

Abstract:
Membrane processes can cover a wide range of separation problems [with a specific membrane (membrane structure) required for every problem]. Thus, there are membranes available that differ in their structure and consequently in the functionality. Therefore membrane characterization is necessary to ascertain, which membrane may be used for a certain separation. Membranes of pore size ranging from 100nm to 1μm with a uniform pore size are very important in membrane technology. An optimum performance is achieved when the membrane is as thin as possible having a uniform pore size. Here in this thesis, membranes were synthesized by particle assisted wetting using mono-layers of silica colloids as templates for pores along with polymerizable organic liquids on water surface. The pore size reflects the original shape of the particles. Thus it is possible to tune the pore size by varying the particle size. This method is effective to control pore sizes of membranes by choosing silica particles of suitable size. This approach gives a porous structure that is very thin, but unfortunately limited in mechanical stability. Thus there is a need for support which is robust and can withstand the various mechanical stresses. A small change in the membrane or defect in the layered structure during the membrane formation can have drastic effect on the assembly. Lateral homogeneity of the layer generated by the particle assisted wetting can be judged by examination of its reflectivity, but once it is transferred on any solid support this option is no more. So a method is needed to detect the cracks or the inhomogenity of the membrane which can be detected even after the transfer. To tackle this problem a very simple and novel technique for characterizing the membrane by fluorescence labeling and optical inspection was developed in this thesis. The idea was to add a fluorescent dye which is poorly water soluble to the spreading solution comprising of the particles and the monomer. If the dye survived the photo-cross linking, then it would be embedded in the cross-linked polymer and would serve as a marker. Defects and inhomogenity would show up as cracks and spots. By the method that we have developed, we can detect our membrane from the support and spot defects.

Abstract:
Durant el desenvolupament del sistema nerviós cal que les cèl·lules formades a una zona concreta migrin fins a la seva posició final o bé que projectin els seus axons per tal de contactar amb les seves cèl·lules diana. En aquest procés participen multitud de molècules de guia axonal i els seus receptors, que produiran l’atracció o la repulsió de l’axó, guiant-lo fins a la seva posició final. En aquest procés el conus de creixement té un paper clau ja que és on es localitzen la majoria d’aquests receptors i on es dona el recanvi de membrana a través de l’exocitosi i endocitosi, necessàries pel creixement de l’axó. En aquests processos de fusió de membrana participen les proteïnes SNARE, entre elles la Sintaxina-1. Una de les molècules guia més importants durant el desenvolupament del sistema nerviós és la Netrina-1. Aquesta molècula té diferents receptors i segons al receptor que s’uneixi provocarà atracció o repulsió. Estudis previs demostren que la la Sintaxina-1 interacciona amb un dels receptors de la Netrina-1, el DCC, i que aquesta interacció és necessària, durant el desenvolupament de la medul·la espinal, per a l’atracció de les neurones comissurals in vitro. Hi ha pocs estudis on s’investigui el paper de les proteïnes SNARE en guia axonal in vivo. Per aquesta raó, en aquesta tesi estudiem el paper de les proteïnes SNARE, específicament de la Sintaxina-1, en la guia axonal de les neurones comissurals, durant el desenvolupament de la línia mitja i la medul·la espinal, en tres models animals diferents (mosca, pollastre i ratolí). Per mitjà de la supressió dels gens de diferents proteïnes SNARE, demostrem que la Sintaxina-1 és necessària per la correcta guia axonal de les neurones comissurals i el correcte desenvolupament de la medul·la a les tres espècies. A més, confirmem que la pèrdua de funció de la Sintaxina-1 comporta una pèrdua de la sensibilitat de les neurones comissurals a les molècules de guia axonal Netrina-1 i Slit-2 i que la funció de la Sintaxina-1 està conservada en diferents processos de guia axonal com la repulsió depenent de Slit/ROBO a les neurones comissurals, i la repulsió depenent de Netrina-1/UNC5 a les neurones de la EGL. La majoria dels mecanismes involucrats en la guia axonal durant el desenvolupament són molt similars als processos que es donen durant la regeneració. Gran part dels receptors que participen en guia axonal i creixement estan localitzats en microdominis de membrana rics en esfingolípids i colesterol, anomenats lipid rafts, i la seva funcionalitat depèn de la correcta localització en aquests microdominis. A més el colesterol proporciona ordre i rigidesa a les membranes. Aquí demostrem com al disminuir el colesterol de les membranes incrementem el creixement neurític, l’àrea dels conus de creixement, la densitat dels fil·lopodis i la ramificació de neurones immadures del sistema nerviós central i perifèric cultivats in vitro. A més, demostrem que la pèrdua de colesterol afavoreix la regeneració de neurones hipocampals axotomitzades in vitro, de la via perforant en cultius organotípics i del nervi ciàtic in vivo. Finalment, també demostrem que la Nistatina, una droga àmpliament utilitzada per eliminar els lipid rafts de les membranes, incrementa la regeneració in vitro de neurones d’hipocamp activant l’enzim òxid nítric sintasa i, en conseqüència, incrementant els nivells d’òxid nítric.
During the nervous system development neurons have to migrate and extend their axons to connect with their targets. In this process a huge amount of axon guidance molecules and their receptors participate to produce axon attraction or repulsion, guiding them to their final position. The growth cone has a key role in this process because the majority of receptors are localized in its surface and is where membrane turnover takes place. SNARE proteins are important components for membrane fusion in both, exocytosis and endocytosis, and their participation in axon guidance has been recently described. One important molecule during the nervous system development is Netrin-1. This guidance cue has different receptors and has the ability to produce attraction or repulsion depending on the receptor it binds. Recent studies have demonstrated that one of the SNARE proteins, Syntaxin-1, interacts with the Netrin-1 receptor DCC and that this interaction is necessary for the attraction of the commissural neurons. In this thesis we study the role of Syntaxin-1 during the commissural neuron guidance in three different animal models (fly, chicken and mouse). Deleting SNARE genes, we demonstrate that Syntaxin-1 is necessary for the correct commissural axon guidance and the correct spinal cord development in the three species. The mechanisms that regulate axon growth during development are very similar to processes that take place during axon regeneration. A variety of axon guidance receptors are localized in membrane microdomains enriched in cholesterol, termed lipid rafts, whose functionality depends on the proper localization within these microdomains. Here, we demonstrate that cholesterol depletion increases neurite growth, growth cone area, filopodia density and branching in immature neurons of the central and peripheral nervous system in vitro. Moreover, cholesterol depletion enhances axon regeneration after axotomy in vitro in dissociated hippocampal neurons, in slice organotypic cultures and in sciatic nerve in vivo. Finally, we also demonstrate that hippocampal regeneration in vitro is increased when nitric oxide synthase is activated by Nystatin treatments, a well-known drug used to disrupt lipid rafts from the cell membrane.

Abstract:
A new all-atom force field for the simulation of phospholipid bilayers using the AMBER molecular dynamics package has been developed, which is compatible with other AMBER protein, nucleic acid, carbohydrate and small molecule force fields. The force field has been validated by simulating bilayers of six different lipid types, finding favourable comparison to experiment for properties such as area per lipid, volume per lipid, bilayer thickness, NMR order parameters, scattering data, and lipid lateral diffusion. The modular nature of this force field allows numerous combinations of head and tail groups to create different lipid types, enabling the easy insertion of new lipid species. The lipid bilayer model has then been applied to the study of the interaction between radioimaging agents and membranes in an effort to understand the phenomena of non-specific binding, which remains poorly understood yet of serious detrimental consequence to the development of new imaging tracers. The effect of different concentrations of imaging agent on a homogeneous membrane has been examined using unbiased simulations, whilst the permeability coefficient of each imaging agent through a membrane has been calculated using biased simulations. It is found that radiotracers with low non-specific binding must adopt a certain orientation to cross the head group region of a membrane - this requirement may act as a barrier to membrane entry. Furthermore, once partitioned into the membrane, simulations predict that those radiotracers displaying a high degree of non-specific binding act to order lipid tail groups to a greater extent than those with low non-specific binding, reducing the permeability of the membrane and possibly acting to 'trap' radiotracer in the membrane. These simulations also predict that non-specific binding is not related to radiotracer membrane permeability through a homogeneous bilayer.

Abstract:
The permeability of lipid bilayer membranes to glucose and carboxyfluorescein has been studied in model membranes. Using an enzyme assay, the permeability of glucose was monitored spectrometrically with both large and giant unilamellar vesicles (LUVs and GUVs). The permeability of carboxyfluorescein was studied by entrapping the dye and monitoring its leakage over time from a single GUV. Permeability study using GUVs may provide new information that cannot be obtained from LUVs.The stability of lipid membranes was enhanced by incorporating polymer scaffold. LUVs were prepared with hydrophobic monomers partitioned and then polymerized inside the hydrophobic interior of the lipid bilayers. The sizes of the formed polymers were characterized using gel permeation chromatography and mass spectrometry. This study suggests that large molecular weight polymers were formed inside the lipid bilayers and that the stability of the membranes is related to the size of the polymers.

Abstract:
Reverse Osmosis (RO) for the desalination of saline water is associated with tremendous energy costs and low efficiency. Improvements in nanotechnology have led to the development of a variety of nanoporous membranes for water purification. Biomimetic membrane is an emerging new technology for water purification. Consequently, there is still much to study about the function and structure of these kinds of membranes. The purpose of this work was to determine which factors influence membrane performance. The focus was on those factors affecting membranes in pure water. Biomimetic membrane using MoS2 which has a higher rate of ion rejection and higher water permeability was studied through molecular dynamics simulations using reactive force fields (ReaxFF). The behaviour of the membrane before subjecting it to desalination was studied. The effect of water temperature, atmospheric pressure and membrane thickness on performance of membrane was studied. The permeability flux was calculated and compared in different conditions and the relation between these factors was revealed.

Abstract:
Cross flow filtration (CFF) is a common membrane separation process with applications in food, biochemical and petroleum industries. In particular, membranes can be used for liquid-liquid separation processes such as needed in oil-water separation. A major challenge in cross flow filtration is membrane fouling. It can decrease significantly the permeate flux and a membrane’s efficiency. Membrane fouling can be mitigated by inducing shear on the membrane’s surface and this can be enhanced by inducing a swirl in the flow. In addition, a possible approach to improve membrane efficiency consists of repelling droplets/particles from the porous surface toward the centerline using a repulsive electric force. For this purpose, the surface of the membrane can be exposed to electric potential and droplets/particles are also induced to have the same electric charge. In this work, numerical simulations of charged non-deformable droplets moving within an axially rotating charged tubular membrane are performed. The results show that by increasing the electric potential on the membrane surface, the repelling force increases which obviously improves the grade efficiency of the membrane. However, the electric field gradients found in the flow field require large potentials on the membrane surface to observe a noticeable effect. Hence, a smaller solid cylinder is located in the centerline of the flow channel with zero potential. This solid cylinder enhances the electric field gradient in the domain which results in higher repelling forces and larger grade efficiency of the membrane at small potentials. The addition of a small cylinder in the flow field also improves the grade efficiency increases due to the higher shear stress near the membrane surface.

Abstract:
There has been an increasing interest in the applications of thin membrane in space application, flexible electronic display, manufacturing of glass displays and growth of film on materials at elevated temperatures. Because of the negligible bending stiffness of thin membranes, membranes are lack of resistance to compressive stress. For the applications at high temperatures, the thermal expansion coefficient mismatch between membrane and substrate materials may generate compressive stress that causes the membrane buckling. The study of thermal buckling of isotropic elastic plate in the context of the large - deflection theory was the subject of a series of papers[1-5]. However, it has been noted that none of these papers has considered the second buckling of the membrane resulting in membrane wrinkling. The presence of wrinkles may significantly change deflection and stress profile of membranes. So, it is important to develop an effective analysis method to investigate the wrinkle formation and evolution in membrane subjected the elevated temperature. This paper presents the experiment work to investigate wrinkle formation and evolution in membranes heated from room temperature up to 170 °C. The specimens consist of polymer and metal membranes with steel and silicon substrate respectively. A wide range of membrane shapes and aspect ratios are considered in this work. An experiment set up is developed to study the deflection profiles of membranes at discrete temperatures. The information gained from this experiment work is used to validate numerical modeling results. The Finite Element Analysis results using nonlinear post-buckling analysis are also included in this paper. The nonlinear post-buckling analysis provides a good understanding of the mechanism of wrinkle generation and evolution as temperature increased. It is shown that the first buckling of membrane significantly reduces bending stiffness thus to create localized buckling modes accounting for the wrinkle generation. The wrinkle pattern is stable until the temperature reaches the next critical value. After this critical temperature, the wrinkle pattern is changed until temperature reaches the next critical value. The new wrinkle pattern is keeping evolved until the final temperature is reached. The finite element analysis results are in good agreement with experimental observations.

Abstract:
This research project introduced a novel membrane coating strategy to combat biofouling, which is a major problem for the membrane-based treatment of agricultural and municipal wastewaters. The novelty of the strategy is that the membrane coatings have the unique ability to switch reversibly between passive (antifouling) and active (antimicrobial) fouling control mechanisms. This dual-mode approach differs fundamentally from other coating strategies that rely solely on one mode of fouling control. The research project had two complementary objectives: (1) preparation, characterization, and testing of dual-mode polymer nanolayers on planar surfaces and (2) evaluation of these nanolayers as membrane modifiers. The first objective was designed to provide a fundamental understanding of how polymer nanolayer chemistry and structure affect bacterial deposition and to demonstrate the reversibility of chemical switching. The second objective, which focused on membrane development, characterization, and testing, was designed to demonstrate methods for the production of water treatment membranes that couple passive and active biofouling control mechanisms. Both objectives were attained through synergistic collaboration among the three research groups. Using planar silicon and glass surfaces, we demonstrated using infrared spectroscopy that this new polymer coating can switch reversibly between the anti-fouling, zwitterion mode and an anti-microbial, quaternary amine mode. We showed that switching could be done more than 50 times without loss of activity and that the kinetics for switching from a low fouling zwitterion surface to an antimicrobial quaternary amine surface is practical for use. While a low pH was required for switching in the original polymer, we illustrated that by slightly altering the chemistry, it is possible to adjust the pH at which the switching occurs. A method was developed for applying the new zwitterionic surface chemistry onto polyethersulfone (PES) ultrafiltration membranes. Bacteria deposition studies showed that the new chemistry performed better than other common anti-fouling chemistries. Biofilm studies showed that PESultrafiltration membranes coated with the new chemistry accumulated half the biomass volume as unmodified membranes. Biofilm studies also showed that PES membranes coated with the new chemistry in the anti-microbial mode attained higher biofilm mortality than PES membranes coated with a common, non-switchablezwitterionic polymer. Results from our research are expected to improve membrane performance for the purification of wastewaters prior to use in irrigation. Since reduction in flux due to biofouling is one of the largest costs associated with membrane processes in water treatment, using dual-mode nanolayer coatings that switch between passive and active control of biofouling and enable detachment of attached biofoulants would have significant economic and societal impacts. Specifically, this research program developed and tested advanced ultrafiltration membranes for the treatment of wastewaters. Such membranes could find use in membrane bioreactors treating municipal wastewater, a slightly upgraded version of what presently is used in Israel for irrigation. They also may find use for pretreatment of agricultural wastewaters, e.g., rendering facility wastewater, prior to reverse osmosis for desalination. The need to desalinate such impaired waters water for unlimited agricultural use is likely in the near future.
