Abstract

The development of Polyamide-Al2O3 nanocomposite membranes into a solution for treating oil and gas wastewater into clean water that can be flowed back into the sea or reused as a source of clean water using simple operations, without additives, cost-effective, and has high productivity. Polyamide–Al2O3 membranes have been successfully synthesized. This study aims to find out the effect of Al2O3 concentration on the process of treating oil and gas wastewater into clean water using Polyamide nanocomposite membranes, the performance of Polyamide-Al2O3 nanocomposite membranes with the addition of the active substance PEG and PVA and characterization of Polyamide-Al2O3 nanocomposite membranes through mechanical membrane, morphology, and FTIR assays. The membrane that has been made is characterized using tensile strength, contact angle, FTIR, and SEM-EDX. The best result of polyamide membrane tensile strength is Polyamide 18% with a young modulus value of 0.16 MPa. The addition of Al2O3 to the Polyamide membrane was able to reduce the hydrophilicity properties of the membrane from 95.92° to 67.2°, increasing the flux value by 41.886 L/m2.h, and percent rejection by 99.8%. The SEM-EDX result of Polyamida membranes has small elongated finger-like pores and a tighter structure, while Polyamide–Al2O3 has sponge-like pores and larger pore sizes.
