The purpose of this paper is whether or not the in-situ restoration of the reverse osmosis (RO) membranes which its membrane function is lost is possible. The damaged RO membranes are double coated through the salting-out method by the poly(styrene sulfonic acid) sodium salt as the cationic exchange polymer and the polyethyleneimine as the anionic exchange polymer and also conducted the opposite order of the coating materials. And according to the concentration, time and ionic strength, the flux and rejection are measured for the coated membranes. Then the best coating condition is to apply for the RO membrane module of the household water purifier to know the possibility of the in-situ restoration for the commercial module. When the condition of the PEI 30,000 ppm (IS = 0.1)/PSSA 20,000 ppm (IS = 0.7) is applied, the rejection was enhance from 69% for the damaged module to 86% (90% for the pristine module).

해수는 약 3.5%의 여러가지 염류가 용해되어 있는 수용액으로 이러한 용존염류를 제거하여 담수를 얻는 방법으로는 증발법, 냉동법 등과 같이 물의 상변화를 이용하는 방법과 역삼투압법, 전기투석법과 같이 분리막을 이용하여 압력차, 전위차로 분리하는 방법이 실용화되어 있다. 이중에서 역삼투압법은 상변화가 필요없기 때문에 소요에너지가 적고 장치가 Compact하여 설치비 및 설치부지가 적게 든다는 이점을 가지고 있으며, 특히 최근에는 우수한 분리막의 개발 및 공정기술의 향상으로 다른 공정들에 비해 경쟁력을 갖게 되었다.

섬유폐수는 합성유기물인 염료와 발호공정에서의 호제가 다량으로 함유되어 있어 기존의 생물학적 처리법에 의한 처리가 용이하지 않다. 게다가 섬유산업은 여타산업에 비해 다량의 물을 소비하는 산업이다. 그동안의 산업의 고도 발전에 따라 앞으로는 물부족현상이 심해질 전망이며, 환경보전 및 보호에 대한 의식이 고취됨에 따라 이러한 섬유폐수의 처리도 이제까지와는 다른 새로운 방법으로 그 효율을 극대화할 필요성을 느끼게 되었다. 이에 따라 본 연구에서는 막분리 공정으로서 한외여과, 역삼투 공정을 이용하여 염색$\cdot$제직폐수를 고도처리하여 재활용이 가능토록 하였으며, 이를 바탕으로 염색$\cdot$제직폐수의 고도처리를 통한 재활용 시스템을 설계하였다.

합성고분자막을 이용하여 액체혼합물을 분리하는 공정은 오래전부터 알려져 왔다. 바다물로부터 역삼투법이나 전기투석법을 이용하여 탈염하는 공정이라든지 한외여과 또는 정밀여과법을 이용하여 초순수를 제조하는 공정등은 현재 대단한 기술적, 상업적 의미를 갖으며 산업적으로 발전하고 있다. 더욱 최근에는 합성고분자막이 여러 기체혼합물 분리에 응용되고 있다. 예를 들면 석유화학 폐가스나 암모니아 공장에서 수소의 회수나 공기중의 산소나 질소의 부화등은 막이 아주 유용한 도구로 사용되어 온 두가지 중요한 분야이다. 고분자막이 특정한 물질분리에 맞도록 고안될수 있게 된 이래로 재래식 방법으로는 곤란한 분리문제들이 막공정에 의해 다루어질수 있게 되었다. 이같은 문제중 하나가 폐수중 유기용제등 유기물의 제거이다. 특히 할로겐화 유기물, 살충제, 농약등 오래전부터 독극물로 알려져온 물질들을 폐수로 부터 제저하는데 많은 노력이 경주되어 왔다. 이러한 연구에도 한외여과법이나 역삼투법등의 막분리공정이 응용되어 보고된 바 있다.

Many countries, including Korea, suffer from a shortage of freshwater. With increases in population and the quality of life, along with large-scale expansion in industrial and agricultural activities, more freshwater is needed. Available resources, Including ground water, are limited, and desalination presents the opportunity for a new unlimited source of freshwater from the sea. The objectives of this study were to test membrane performance in seawater desalination and to examine the quality of water produced. bath well and sea water were used as water sources. Typically used membrane for seawater desalination and high rejection seawater desalination membrane are maintained at almost same recovery rate and permeate flux, while the conductivity was lower in the operation of typically used seawater membrane. The treated water quality using two types of membranes is satisfied with the Korea drinking water quality standards.

A pilot test was carried out to investigate the long term operation characteristics of Microfiltration (MF) system as a pretreatment for seawater reverse osmosis (SWRO) processes for two years. A commercialized MF module with pressurized operation type was used to filter seawater to remove particles which can foul reverse osmosis (RO) membrane. Silt Density Index (SDI) values of filtered seawater by the MF system were ranged from 0.14 to 1.79, which meet the SDI standard for RO feed water as depicted in previous literatures. Although the tested seawater is quite clean (i.e., dissolved organic cabon (DOC) concentration and turbidity were about 1 mg/l and less than 1 NTU, respectively) enough not to foul the MF membrane, steep increase in trans-membrane pressure (TMP) with a constant flux were observed over a whole operation period. A set of operation and water analysis data implies that the steep increase in TMP was resulted from iron and maganese fouling by the combination of metal corrosion by seawater and oxidation state by aeration and residual chlorine.

Membrane separation technology was applied to prepare high quality persimmon juice from persimmon, which is produced in large quantities in Korea. The influences of time, pressure, and temperature on permeate flux were studied during concentration by reverse osmosis. The chemical components of retentate were also analyzed. The permeate flux was higher as the operating temperature and pressure were increased, and was influenced more strongly by operating pressure than temperature. Maximum concentration by reverse osmosis employed in this study in the oBrix scale was about 30. Retention percentage of sugar in the persimmon juice which was concentrated by membrane separation system was more than 90% and was not influenced by operating conditions. Retention percentage of volatile components in the same process was more than 60%; it was increased as operating temperature was decreased and pressure was increased.

Several Physico-chemical properties of the retentate obtained from reverse osmosis of soybean curd whey were studied. The contents of sucrose, raffinose and stachyose in the retentate were 32.59%d.b., 4.76%d.b. and 9.99%d.b., respectively. Potassium (5.23%d.b.), in the retentate was a dominant element in ash. Protein content (18.69%d.b.), amino acid composition and subunit pattern of protein in PAG-electrophoresis were somewhat different from those of the soybean protein. Emulsification activity, emulsification stability and viscosity of protein isolated from soybean curd whey (WPI) were slightly inferior compared to protein isolated from soybean (SPI), with the exception of solubility that depended on the pH of WPI.
