1. 서론 : 적절한 이산화탄소의 분리는 지구온난화의 가속현상을 늦출 수 있을 뿐만 아니라 각종 탄화수소가스의 원료로 분리 정제된 이산화탄소를 재이용할 수 있으므로 경제적으로 매우 중요하다. 이산화탄소 분리에 사용되던 기존 공정들의 단점을 보완할 수 있는 대체방안으로 최근에 개발되기 시작한 것이 소수성의 다공성 고분자 분리막(hydrophobic porous ploymeric membrane) 방법인데, 이는 모듈의 유효 막 표면적이 상대적으로 크고 기체와 액체의 흐름을 독립적으로 제어할 수 있으므로 범람 등의 현상이 없으나 막 자체의 저항이 비교적 큰 단점을 가지고 있다. Qi와 Cussler는 이러한 특성을 가지는 중공사막 모듈에서의 기-액 흐름에 대한 물질전달 상관관계식을 얻었으며[1], Karoor 등은 여러 가지 중공사막 모듈을 사용하여 순수물과 diethanolamine(DEA) 등의 흡수제에 대한 이산화탄소의 물질전달 거동을 수치모델과 실험을 통하여 고찰하였다[3]. 또한 중공사막 접촉기의 실제적 응용에 대하여 Matsumoto 등은 화력발전소에서 발생하는 연소가스 내의 이산화탄소 흠수에 대한 연구를 수행하였다[4]. 본 연구에서는 중공사막 접촉장치를 사용하여 흡수제를 순수물과 탄산칼륨($K_2CO_3$)을 사용했을 경우의 이산화탄소의 분리 거동을 수치모델과 실험을 통하여 고찰하였다. 수치모델의 경우 이전까지의 연구가 반응이 없는 경우나 반응식을 간략화시킨 경우에 한정되었는데 비하여, 반으이 있는 경우 각각의 반응물질들의 거동을 고려한 반응식을 유도하여 해를 구하고자 하녔다.

Biodiesel was produced from Canola, soybean and Jatropha oils combined methanol using continuously recycled membrane reactor. The membrane served to react and separate the unreacted oil from the product stream, producing high-purity fatty acid methyl ester (FAME). Two ceramic tubular membranes having different nominal pore sizes of 0.2 and 0.5 ${\mu}m$ were used. Permeate was observed at 0.5, 1.0 and 2.0 bar with a given flow rate, respectively. The permeate flux for 0.2 ${\mu}m$ membrane at 0.5 bar and 400 mL/min flow rate was 15 L/$m^2{\cdot}hr$. Also FAME content in permeate was the highest at 0.5 bar, and decreased with increasing operating pressure.

This review focused carbon-free hydrogen productions from ammonia decomposition including inorganic membranes, catalysts and the presently studied reactor configurations. It also contains general information about hydrogen productions from hydrocarbons as hydrogen carriers. A Pd-based membrane (e.g. a porous ceramic or porous metallic support with a thin selective layer of Pd alloy) shows its efficiency to produce the high purity hydrogen. Ru-based catalysts consisted of Ru, support, and promoter are the efficient catalysts for ammonia decomposition. Packed bed membrane reactor (PBMR), Fluidized bed membrane reactor (FBMR), and membrane micro-reactor have been studied mainly for the optimization and the improvement of mass transfer limitation. Various types of reactors, which contain various combinations of hydrogen-selective membranes (i.e. Pd-based membranes) and catalysts (i.e. Ru-based catalysts) including catalytic membrane reactor, have been studied for carbon-free hydrogen production to achieve high ammonia conversion and high hydrogen flux and purity.

자기조립 단분자막 (self-assembled monolayers, SAMs)은 주어진 기질의 표면에 자발적으로 입혀진 규칙적으로 잘 정렬된 유기 분자막이다 (그림 1). SAMs의 제조에 이용되는 계면 활성제 분자는 그림 2에서 보여주듯이 세 개의 부분으로 이루어져 있다. 먼저 기질과 결합하는 머리 부분의 반응기, 규칙적인 분자 막 형성을 가능하게 하는 몸통 부분의 긴 알칸사슬, 그리고 분자 막의 기능을 좌우하는 꼬리 부분의 작용기로 나누어진다. 가장 간단한 작용기로는 알킬 그룹이 있으나 분자 막에 특수한 기능을 부여하기 위해서는 여러 가지 다른 그룹들 (예:NH$_2$, OH, COOH 등)이 이용되고 있다.

염료제조공정에서 발생되는 폐수는 미반응 물질, 중간합성체, 반응기 세척액 등의 난분해성 물질과 함께 고농도의 염(salt)를 함유하고 있어 기존의 생물학적 처리를 위해서는 폐수를 3-5배 희석하여 처리한다. 따라서 폐수처리장의 규모가 커지고 처리 약품과 에너지의 소모가 증가하므로 처리가 비효율적으로 수행된다. 본 연구에서는 염료폐수처리 및 회수에 역삼투막을 적용하여 폐수의 농축과정에 따른 투과율, 배제율의 변화를 조사하였다. 염료폐수의 생물학적 처리공정에서 문제점으로 대두되는 염의 농도를 낮추기 위해서 Nanofiltration(NF)막을 이용하여 염료성분과 염을 분리하는 실험을 수행하였다.

Bacillus thuringiensis (Bt) is the most widely used microbial insecticide in the biological control market. Cultivation of the microorganism to high cell densities offers potential for enhancing the rate of formation as well as the concentration of the desired products In the fermentation broths in bioreactor. With this objective, we developed the new bioreactor incorporating ceramic membrane module for the retention of cell mass. Cell yield and spore formation of Bacillus thuringiensis was improved markedly by adopting this new bioreactor based on glucose -limited feeding operation. It was possible to grow the cell and the heat-resistant spore to above $1.2\;{\times}\;10^{10}\;CFU/ml$ density. With glucose-limited operation, we studied the growth behavior of Bacillus thuringiensis during the cell retention culture. Linear growth of Bacillus thuringiensis was observed under glucose-limited culture, which matched well with simple mathematical model of cell retention culture.

The oxidation/degradation efficiency of formic acid through the photoelectrochemical reaction has been investigated as a basic research in order to develope the process for degrading toxic organic compounds dissolved in water. A $TiO_{2}$ photoelectro-membrane reactor for purification of water, in which filtration as well as photoelectrocatalytic oxidation of organic compounds could be carried out simultaneously, was developed. Porous $SnO_{2}$ tubes prepared by slip casting and commercial porous stainless steel tubes, being electrically conductive, were used as not only supports but also working electrodes. The UV light with the wavelength of 365 nm was applied as a light source for photocatalytic reactions. The photoelectrocatatytic composite membranes were prepared by coating the support surface with the $TiO_{2}$ sol of pH 1.45. The oxidation efficiency of formic acid increased with the reaction time and the applied voltage, but was almost independent of the solution flux. The results showed that more than 90% of formic acid could he dograded at 27V using the $TiO_{2}$/stainless steel composite membrane, while about 77% in case of the $TiO_{2}/SnO_{2}$ Composite membrane. It was also concluded that the oxidation efficiencies of formic acid could be significantly improved by about 6~7 times by the photoelectrochemical reaction in comparison with those by the photocatalytic reaction only.

The photocatalytic reactor was designed to have improved efficiency by enhancing a light intensity of photocatalytic reactor using a reflector coated on the surface at the outer radius of annular shaped photocatalytic reactor. The improved photocatalytic reactor performed to treat waste air containing malodor and VOC with the enhanced light intensity, of which the effect on their removal efficiency was investigated. The intensities of illumination of the improved photocatalytic reactor filled with porous silica-based media and nonporous glass bead media carrying photocatalyst were observed to increase by 28.5% and 30.1%, respectively, compared to those of photocatalytic reactor without any reflector. Using the improved photocatalytic reactor filled with porous silica-based media and nonporous glass bead media carrying photocatalyst, the removal efficiencies were enhanced by 2~3% and insignificantly, respectively. The removal efficiencies of the optimized photocatalytic reactor with reflectors, filled with porous silica-based media carrying photocatalyst, were observed to increase by 26% and 60%, compared to those of photocatalytic reactor (i.e., 19% and 53%), without any reflector, filled with nonporous glass bead media carrying photocatalyst, for hydrogen sulfide and toluene, respectively. The roughness of used reflector surface was measured to be ca. four times as big as that of a commercial mirror. However, their removal efficiencies are expected to be enhanced by increasing an light intensity resulting from lowering the roughness of used reflector coated on the improved photocatalytic reactor in the future.
