1. 서론 : 공기중의 산소와 질소를 분리하여 공기 중에 21% 함유된 산소를 보다 높은 농도(21%이상)로 농축하기 위한 기초자료로서 건조 산소(dry O$_2$)와 건조 질소(dry N$_2$)의 투과도를 측정하였다. 그러나 공기중에는 항상 수분이 포함되어 있으므로 공기 중에 함유된 수분(water vapour)에 의한 산소 투과도와 질소 투과도의 변화를 측정하기 위하여 상대숩도 및 압력차이에 따른 영향을 고찰하였다. 그리고 분리막공정에서 순수기체의 막에 대한 투과도를 알 수 있다면 기체 혼합물에 대한 이상분리인자(ideal separation factor)를 알 수 있으며, 이를 이용하여 분리막의 분리 성능 예측이 가능하므로 투과도 예측식을 얻는다는 것은 매우 중요하다. 본 연구에서는 counter-current model을 이용하여 기체 혼합물의 투과도를 예측하고 실험치와 비교하였다.

The air injection nozzle tube was inserted inside of the tubular membrane module to reduce membrane fouling and improve the permeate flux. The average pore size of membrane was $0.1\;{\mu}m$ and the yeast was used as a foulant. All of permeate experiments were started without air injection for the module equipped with the nozzle tube, then carried out continuously with air injection. Finally, the nozzle tube was removed from the module and the permeate was measured without air injection. The measured permeate fluxes were compared to examine the effect of air injection. The fluxes for air injection were consistently maintained or increased. The fluxes of no-air injection with the nozzle tube were greater than those of the empty tubular module. As operating pressure decreased to 0.4 bar, the flux enhancement of air injection based on no-nozzle case increased to 21%. Flux enhancements of air injection were above 30% as the gas/liquid two-phase flow was changed from the stratified-smooth to the intermittent pattern due to increase of gas flowrate.

This study was carried out for microfiltration tubular membrane module equipped with self-designed air injection nozzle in order to determine the permeate flux due to the effect of membrane fouling reduction. The 0.1 wt% yeast particle solution was used as a feed solution and permeation tests were performed for the cases with and without air injection. Permeation fluxes were measured and analyzed to examine the effect of membrane fouling reduction. While the permeation flux without air injection decreased continuously, that with air injection was improved more than 30 percent than that of no air injection case.

산소와 질소는 공업적으로 공기를 분리하여 생산하는데, 이 분리공정에는 심냉법 (cryogenic distillation), PSA법 (pressure swing adsorption) 그리고 분리막법 등이 사용되고 있다. 현재는 위의 세가지 공정중에서 PSA법이 가장 널리 채택되고 있는 공정이다. 그런데, 고분자막을 이용하는 분리공정은 설비투자면에서 뿐만 아니라 에너지 절약측면에서 큰 이점을 갖고 있기 때문에 최근 들어 점차 주목 받고 있다 [1]. 그러나, 고분자막에서의 기체의 투과도와 선택도는 서로 상반적인 관계 (trade-off)에 있기 때문에 공기중의 산소와 질소의 분리를 위해서는 기존의 고분자들에 비해 투과도와 선택도가 동시에 개선된 새로운 막 소재의 개발이 절실하므로 이에 대한 연구가 활발히 진행되고 있다 [2].

Common bulking agents in composting system include woody materials such as sawdust and woodchips. These bulking agents are mainly used for the purpose of the proper control of C/N ratio and moisture content in the composting. The topic for the effect on air permeability of bulking agents has far received relatively little attention in the composting field. This study investigated the effect of bulk density, moisture content, air-filled porosity, particle size and air flow rate on air permeability of several mixture ratios of sawdust and woodchip bulking agent. Increasing the moisture contents, the air-filled porosity was decreased and the particle size was increased for all kinds of bulking agent mixtures. Especially, with the increasing of mixing ratio of woodchip, these effects were sharply magnified. The air permeability respond to air-filled porosity was very similar to that for moisture content which was anticipated the linear relationship between air-filled porosity and moisture content. Above the region of moisture content 0.25 or 0.43(d.b.)(20 or 30% w.b.), the pressure drop decreased even though air-filled pore spaces were filling with water. Especially, to the particle size of 5 mm the pressure drop was decreased exponentially, so the air permeability was dramatically improved. By the water had the role of binding of the small particles, the macropores less resistances to air flow were created in the matrix. The effect of particle size on air permeability was much stronger than that of air-filled porosity or moisture content. And it is needed the preparing of initial particle size above 5 mm for efficient composting.

In this study, graphite or zeolite 4A was mixed with poly(acrylonitrile-butadiene-strene) (ABS) to make hybrid films, and permeation characteristics of air and water vapor through these films were investigated. In all cases, gas permeabilities of hybrid films were lower than that of pure ABS films. The permeability decrease of oxygen was slightly larger than that of nitrogen, resulting in the little decrease of $O_2/N_2$ selectivity. In addition, the water vapor transfer rates (WVTR) of hybrid films were about half of ABS film's. The decrease of permeabilities may be owing to the increase of tortuosity for diffusion in hybrid films.

The objective of the present study is to provide data needed to decide covering method to be able to increase the thermal insulation and light transmittance efficiency of commercial greenhouse. The thermal insulation effect, PPF transmittance and quantity of condensation water were estimated in experimental tomato greenhouses covered with three types of coverings of single layer, air inflated and conventional double layers covering. The overall heat flow of air inflated double layers greenhouse was similar to that of conventional double layers greenhouse, but the temperature between covering material and thermal screen in air inflated double layers greenhouse was lower than that in conventional double layers greenhouse at the same outside temperature condition due to air leakage through the gap of roof vent. The overall heat transfer coefficients acquired by experiment that was performed in single layer and conventional double layers greenhouses were close to those obtained from model experiment. Even though the PPF transmittance of air inflated double layers greenhouse was lower than that of single layer greenhouse, which was greater than that of conventional double layers greenhouse. The quantity of condensation water on covering surface of single layer greenhouse was greater than that of air inflated double layers greenhouse due to lower covering surface temperature.

Polyimide membrane system was designed for manufacturing nitrogen-enriched gas, and basic technical data was suggested for appling this system to controlled atmosphere storage. The permeability characteristics of pure oxygen and nitrogen could be explained by dual-mode sorption model. There was substantial decrease in the permeation rates of oxygen, which is the more permeable gas, through the polyimide membrane due to the presence of nitrogen in comparison with pure oxygen. However, the permeation rates of nitrogen was increased by the presence of oxygen. The ideal separation factor was in the range of 5 to 6 in the range of temperature and pressure difference studied, and the separation factor of air was lower than the ideal separation factor. The increase of ideal separation factor with increasing temperature is due to the fact that the activation energy for oxygen is larger than that for nitrogen. Nitrogen concentration decreased rapidly with increasing product recovery, and it was found that this is a major operating factor to obtain nitrogen concentration required for controlled atmosphere storage. A relation equation, by which nitrogen concentration in storehouse can be predicted, was suggested under the establishment of a hypothetical model for controlled atmosphere storage process using polyimide membrane system.

1. 서론 : 공기의 산소/질소 분리용 고분자막은 높은 선택도와 높은 투과도를 동시에 요구한다. 이 두가지 조건을 만족시키는 새로운 소재 개발과 기존의 고분자물질을 수식하는 연구가 진행되고 있으나 trade-off 현상으로 인하여 선택도가 증가되면 투과계수가 감소되고, 투과계수가 증가되면 선택도가 감소되는 경향이 있다. 다공성 지지체의 표면에 selective thin layer를 coating한 복합막은 투과저항을 줄여 투과속도는 증가시킬 수 있으나 선택도는 고분자 고유의 80%정도까지 감소되는 것으로 알려져 있다. (생략)
