[Study on correlation between physical and chemical parameters of oil-bearing water bodies and ultrafiltration membrane flux in four simulative system of traditional Chinese medicine volatile oil].
OBJECTIVE
To explore the correlation between physical and chemical parameters of oil-bearing water bodies and ultrafiltration flux in the four simulative system of traditional Chinese medicine ( TCM) volatile oil.


METHODS
Four simulative systems of TCM oil-bearing water bodies such as Tsao-ko Amomum Fruit were selected as the experimental subjects. The membrane separating under the best conditions was carried out, membrane flux, physical and chemical parameters of stock solution and permeate were collected, and SPSS computer software was used for data processing.


RESULTS
The membrane separation significantly changed the physical and chemical properties of oil-bearing water bodies, resulted in lower electrical conductivity and turbidity and pH value increased; Physical and chemical parameters also affected the membrane process significantly, and the flux varied with the electrical conductivity, pH, turbidity and viscosity.


CONCLUSIONS
There is significant correlation between physical and chemical parameters of oil-bearing water bodies and their ultrafiltration flux in the four simulative systems of TCM volatile oil.
