Abstract
This invention relates to a polyion complex separation membrane with a double structure, which is applicable in the separation process of a water-soluble mixture having ionic molecules or particles by means of reverse osmotic pressure for the purposes of recovering expensive ionic organic materials such as anionic emulsifiers from the waste water. More particularly, this invention relates to said membrane having anionic polymers, as substrate, which is immersed into a cationic polymer solution containing a multivalent ion cross-linking agent, by which a cross-linkage within the internal of the separation membrane is achieved, thereby forming an ion complex between ionic polymers of opposite ion at the surface of the separation membrane to yield a stable separation membrane of a double structure.
