A method of cleaning a membrane filtration module (6), the module (6) including at least one membrane (8) located in a feed-containing vessel (7), the membrane (8) having a permeable wall which is subjected to a filtration operation wherein feed containing contaminant matter is applied to one side of the membrane wall and filtrate is withdrawn from the other side of the membrane wall. The method comprising the steps of: suspending the filtration operation; performing a cleaning process on the membrane wall to dislodge contaminant matter therefrom into liquid surrounding the membrane (8); performing a high velocity sweep of the feed-containing vessel (7) to remove the liquid containing the dislodged contaminant matter; and recommencing the filtration operation. An improved gas scouring method is also disclosed.
1. A method for cleaning a membrane filtration module, the module comprising at least one membrane located in a feed-containing vessel, the membrane comprising a permeable wall, the method comprising: conducting a filtration operation wherein a feed is applied to a first side of the permeable wall a
1. A method for cleaning a membrane filtration module, the module comprising at least one membrane located in a feed-containing vessel, the membrane comprising a permeable wall, the method comprising: conducting a filtration operation wherein a feed is applied to a first side of the permeable wall and a filtrate is withdrawn from a second side of the permeable wall;suspending the filtration operation;performing a cleaning process on the permeable wall to dislodge a contaminant therefrom into a liquid surrounding the membrane;forming a gas-containing region on the first side of the permeable wall;sealing the feed-containing vessel;pressurizing a gas within the gas-containing region via a backwash operation;opening a lower valve of the feed-containing vessel to atmosphere when a pressure on the first side of the membrane equals a pressure on the second side of the membrane to generate an instantaneous negative transmembrane pressure, whereby the gas-containing region expands and produces a high velocity sweep of the feed-containing vessel to remove the liquid containing the dislodged contaminant through the lower valve; andsuspending the backwash operation when the high velocity sweep of the feed-containing vessel is complete. 2. The method according to claim 1, wherein the step of performing a cleaning process comprises performing a fluid backwash of the permeable wall. 3. The method according to claim 2, wherein the fluid backwash comprises a liquid backwash. 4. The method according to claim 2, wherein the fluid backwash comprises a gas backwash. 5. The method according to claim 1, wherein a velocity of the high velocity sweep is greater than about 0.03 msec. 6. The method according to claim 1, wherein a velocity of the high velocity sweep is from about 0.3 msec to about 2.0 msec. 7. The method according to claim 1, wherein the step of performing a cleaning process comprises gas scrubbing a surface of the permeable wall. 8. The method according to claim 1, wherein the membrane comprises a hollow fiber membrane, and wherein the filtrate is withdrawn from at least one end of the hollow fiber membrane during the filtration operation. 9. The method according to claim 1, wherein the gas-containing region is formed within the feed-containing vessel. 10. The method according to claim 1, wherein the gas-containing region is formed within a further vessel coupled to the feed-containing vessel; and wherein the step of sealing the feed-containing vessel comprises sealing the feed-containing vessel and the further vessel as a whole. 11. The method according to claim 9, wherein the gas-containing region is formed by partially draining down a feed liquid within the feed-containing vessel. 12. The method according to claim 9, wherein opening the feed-containing vessel comprises applying a fluid backwash to the membrane. 13. The method according to claim 1, wherein the cleaning process on the permeable wall is suspended prior to forming a gas-containing region on the first side of the permeable wall. 14. The method according to claim 1, wherein an elapsed time between suspending the filtration operation and suspending the backwash operation is less than 1 minute.
