Can methanol and ethanol be recovered using membrane separation?

2016-10-09View Original

Thread Content

In the current process, there are two types of waste liquids: one consists of methanol and water, with methanol accounting for over 90% of its composition; the water contains some other substances such as boric acid and trimethyl borate. The production rate is two tons per hour. Another is ethanol and water, with ethanol accounting for over 90%, and the aforementioned substances are also dissolved in the water. The production rate is one ton per hour. Is it possible to recover methanol and ethanol through membrane separation without using distillation? (Boric acid, trimethyl borate can be converted into sodium borate by adding a base)
