A predictive model correlating the parameters in the mass transfer-based model Spiegler–Kedem to the pure water permeability is presented in this research, which helps to select porous polyamide membranes for enhanced oil recovery (EOR) applications. Using the experimentally obtained values of flux and rejection, the reflection coefficient σ and solute permeability Ps have been estimated as the mass transfer-based model parameters for individual ions in seawater. The reflection coefficient and solute permeability determined were correlated with the pure water permeability of a membrane, which is related to the structural parameters of a membrane. The novelty of this research is the development of a model that consolidates the various complex mechanisms in the mass transfer of ions through the membrane to an empirical correlation for a given feed concentration and membrane type. These correlations were later used to predict ion rejections of any polyamide membrane with a known pure water permeability and flux with seawater as a feed that aids in the selection of suitable nanofiltration (NF) for smart water production.

Abstract This study introduces a microfabricated chamber which allows individual cells to be maintained between two different flow paths while kinetic volume changes and membrane permeability are measured. For HBL-100 cells, the data yielded a water permeability (Lp) of 1.1 ±0.5 μm/(min-atm) (mean ± 1 standard deviation) (N = 5) during the uncoupled transport of water at 22°C. In the presence of 6M glycerol, the water permeability (Lp), permeability coefficient (Ps), and the reflection coefficient (σs) were determined to be 2.0± 0.63 μm/(min-atm), 2.7×10E-5 ±6.1×10E-6 cm-sec−1, and 0.76±.05 (N = 6). No previous values of these coefficients could be found for HBL-100 cells.
