The feasibility of kaolin as main material for low cost porous ceramic hollow fibre membrane prepared using combined phase inversion and sintering technique

Ceramic hollow fibre membrane (CHFM) demonstrated superior characteristics and
performance in any separation application. The only problem associated with this kind
of technology is the high cost. In order to effectively fabricate and produce low cost
porous CHFM, a series of CHFMs made of kaolin were fabricated via combined phase
inversion and sintering technique. The CHFMs from kaolin named as kaolin hollow fibre
membranes (KHFMs) were studied at different kaolin contents of 35 wt.%, 37.5 wt.% and
40 wt.% sintered at 1200ºC. The result indicated that by varying kaolin contents,
different morphologies were obtained due to changes in the viscosity of ceramic
suspension containing kaolin. The optimum kaolin content for KHFM was identified. It
was found that KHFM prepared at 37.5 wt% has a mechanical strength and pure water
flux of A and B respectively.
