Abstract

There are various ions in seawater. In order to use seawater as the drinking water, some elements are to be concentrated and other elements are to be removed. To obtain these characteristics using seawater, it is necessary to adjust seawater quality. Because calcium and magnesium are especially healthful to human bodies, it is required to concentrate these elements. In this study, the technology to obtain the hard water from seawater by electerodialysis was investigated. After concentrated water was produced using nanofiltration membranes, sodium chloride was eliminated from the concentrated water by electrodialysis. The hard water production from seawater was successfully achieved using electrodialysis in this study.

바닷물 속에는 다양한 종류의 이온들이 존재한다. 바닷물을 음용수로 사용하기 위해서는 특정 성분은 농축하고 또 다른 특정 성분은 제거되어야 한다. 이러한 특성을 갖기 위해서는 바닷물의 수질을 조정하는 것이 필요하다. 특히 2가 양이온인 칼슘과 마그네슘은 인체에 유용한 물질이므로 이를 농축하는 기술이 필요하다. 본 연구에서는 나노막을 거친 농축수를 전기투석 장치를 이용하여 칼슘과 마그네슘을 농축하는 고경도수 제조기술을 연구하였다. 나노막을 이용하여 2가 이온 성분을 농축한 처리수를 얻은 후 이를 전기투석 장치에 적용시켜 1가 이온인 염화나트륨성분을 제거하였다. 이와 같이 전기투석 장치를 이용하여 고경도수를 제조할 수 있었다.
