description | Nanofiltration can be used as the last step in the purification of the biomolecules that are present in many industrial by-products, such as biological protein hydrolysates. The present study explored the variation in glycine and triglycine rejections in binary solutions with NaCl at different feed pHs with two nanofiltration membranes: MPF-36 and Desal 5DK with molecular weight cut-offs of 1000 and 200 g mol−1, respectively. First, water permeability coefficient showed a n-shaped curve with feed pH, which was more evident for the MPF-36 membrane. Second, membrane performance with single solutions was studied and the experimental data were fitted with the Donnan steric pore model with dielectric exclusion (DSPM-DE) to explain the variations of solute rejection with feed pHs. Glucose rejection was assessed to estimate the membrane pore radius of the MPF-36 membrane, and a pH dependence was observed. For a tight membrane (Desal 5DK), glucose rejection was close to unity and the membrane pore radius was estimated from the glycine rejection in the feed pH range from 3.7 to 8.4. Glycine and triglycine rejections showed a pH-dependence with a u-shaped curve, even for the zwitterion species. In binary solutions, glycine and triglycine rejections decreased with NaCl concentration, especially in the MPF-36 membrane. Triglycine rejection was always higher than NaCl rejection and it was estimated that triglycine can be desalted using a continuous diananofiltration the Desal 5DK membrane. |
