This research focused on establishing the optimized operation parameters of electrospinning pilot machine with 160cm of working width to fabricate PAN/caly nano-fiber membranes which exhibited excellent physical characteristics, such as average fiber diameter 250nm, mean basis weight 6.268±0.125g/m^2/hr, uniformity error 1.9%, and membrane production rate 113g/hr. In addition, the pore size of PAN/caly membrane could be controlled and sharply decreased from 4.8μm (compressive strength 0.1kg/cm^2) to 0.2μm (compressive strength 7.0kg/cm^2) after interfacial polymerization, which showed over 90% of pore size distribution between 0.2~0.6μm. According to filtration analysis, the effluent water quality of microporous PAN/clay nanofiber composite membrane can meet Taiwan's regulation (COD<180mg/l, ADMI<550, SS<30mg/l).
