Recovery of pyridine from water by pervaporation using filled and crosslinked EPDM membranes
E-mail:
Organoselective membrane was prepared from ethylene propylene diene monomer (EPDM) rubber. Crosslinked EPDM rubber was filled with 2, 4 and 6 wt% N330 carbon black filler to produce three different filled membranes designated as EPDMCV2, EPDMCV4 and EPDMCV6, respectively. These filled rubber membranes were used for pervaporative recovery of low concentration of pyridine from water. These filled membranes were characterized by crosslink density, SEM, XRD and mechanical properties. Sorption thermodynamics were discussed. Partial permeability, intrinsic membrane selectivity and diffusion coefficients of solvents were also determined. The filled membranes showed much higher pyridine selectivity than most of the membranes reported for similar system.
