In this work, the heterogeneous ion exchange membrane was used in a electrodialysis apparatus to treat a Ni planting rinse water because the heterogeneous ion exchange membrane was excellent efficiency as compared with low manufacturing cost, was easy to make, and had a good mechanical properties. For a regeneration of membrane and to obtain the optimal condition for a scale-up of apparatus after treating Ni plating rinse water, we would find about the limiting current density and the concentration polarization. When the Ni plating rinse water 150mg/L was treated with the electrodialysis apparatus using the heterogeneous ion exchange membrane, the limiting current density was about $1.49{\;}mA/\textrm{cm}^2$. And the limiting current density increased with the flow rate and concentration of Ni plating rinse water. We recognized that the used membrane could be reused by periodic backwashing because efficiency was constant when the membrane was backwashed after treating wastewater.

E. coli growth is inhibited by organic acids produced in the broth. In order to reduce the inhibition, an electrodialysis unit was used. Model solutions (acetic acid plus distilled water or M-9 medium) were tested in the unit for investigating the optimum condition of current and voltage. Electrodialysis cultures were performed with the optimum condition where the highest current efficiency could be attained. The distilled water plus acetic acid gave us a higher current efficiency than the M-9 plus acetic acid. Electrodialysis efficiently removed acetic acid and so enhanced the specific growth rate of E. coli compared with the control experiment without clectrodialysis.

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.

전해질용액에 있는 이온교환막을 통해 전류가 흐를 때 막표면에는 경계층이 형성된다. 희석실쪽 막표면에서 전해질의 농도는 감소하고 농축실쪽에서 증가 하는 농도분극현상이 일어난다. 이와 같은 농도분극현상은 전류밀도에 벼놔를 주어 에너지 소비를 증가시키고 막표면에 스케일을 형성할 수도 있다. ED에서는 농축실보다는 희석실쪽의 농도분극현상이 더 많은 관심을 갖게 되며 이 부분 연구가 활발하게 진행된다. 따라서 전기 투석을 이용한 물질분리는 항상 한계전류밀도이하에서 이루어져야 하는데 i$_{lim)$은 막자체의 성능 외에도 용액의 종류및 농도, 온도, pH, 전압등에 의해 변화한다. 따라서 i$_{lim)$이 각 변수에 의해 얼마만큼 변화하는지를 살펴봄으로써 임의의 환경에서 i$_{lim)$을 추정할 수 있는 모델을 제시하고자 한다.

Many researchers have studied that many processes to effectively remove heavy metals in water/wastewater. Especially, among many processes, physical and chemical processes are relatively simple and obtain high treatment efficiency for removal heavy metals compared with biological treatment. Recently, interests in physical and chemical methods are sharply increasing again because of dangerousness for radioactive element. In this study, various physical and chemical processes such as chemical precipitation, ion-exchange, electrodialysis, and membrane separation are introduced.

To evaluate the feasibility of electrodialysis for copper removal from industrial wastewater, the effect of operating parameters on the removal of copper was experimentally estimated. The limiting current density (LCD) linearly increased with the copper concentration and the flow rate. The time when the copper concentration of diluate reaches to 3 mg/L was linearly proportional to initial concentration of diluate, and the concentration of concentrate did not affect the removal rate. Increase in the flow rate gave a positive effect on the removal rate and became insignificant at flow rates greater than 2.4 L/min. The removal rate increased with the applied voltage. From the operation of the electrodialysis module used in this research, the flow rate of 2.4 L/min and the voltage corresponding to the 80~90% of LCD were found be the optimum operating condition for the copper removal from highly concentrated copper solutions.

In this study, we produced bioethanol from the original hydrolysate obtained during oxalic acid pretreatment of lignocellulosic biomass. The bioethanol was separated and concentrated by pervaporation and the residue after pervaporation was evaluated for its antioxidant activity. Xylose ($37.28g/{\ell}$) was the major product in the original hydrolysate. The original hydrolysate contained acetic acid, furfural and total phenolic compounds (TPC) as fermentation inhibitors. Acetic acid was removed by electrodialysis (ED), and $12.21g/{\ell}$ of bioethanol was produced from ED-treated hydrolysate. The TPC of ethyl acetate extracts from the residue obtained (OA-E) during pervaporation was 86.81 mg/100 g (extract). The $IC_{50}$ values of DPPH and ABTS radical scavenging activities, and reducing power of OA-E were $0.87mg/m{\ell}$, $0.85mg/m{\ell}$, and $0.59mg/m{\ell}$, respectively. Sugar degradation products and the phenolic compounds in OA-E were determined by GC-MS.

The present work explores the performance and operation limit of electrodialysis cell for HI concentration in sulfur iodine thermochemical hydrogen production process, For this purpose, the electrodialysis cell was assembled with Nafion 117 as a PEM membrane and two activated carbon papers as the electrodes. HIx solution was prepared with composition of HI: $I_2$: $H_2O$ = 1: 0.5~2.5: 5.2 in molar ratio. The cell and its peripheral apparatus were placed in the specially designed convective oven in order to uniformly maintain the operation temperature. As operation temperature increased, the amount of water transport from anode to cathode increased, thus reducing HI molarity in catholyte. Meanwhile, the current efficiency was constant as about 90 %, irrespective of temperature change. The cell voltage increased with initial $I_2$ mole ratio as well as anolyte to catholyte mole ratio. Moreover the cell voltage overshot took place within 10 h cell operation, which is due to the $I_2$ precipitation inside the cell. From the analysis of $I_2$ mole ratio in the anolyte, it is noted that operation limit (in $I_2$ mole ratio) of the electrodialysis cell, arising from was measured to be 3.2, which is much lower than bulk solubility limit of 4.7.

This study presents the improved recovery efficiency of rare metal ions through the modified separation membrane wettability and hydrogen ion permeation in the anion exchange membrane (AEM) under the recovery process of combined electrodialysis and solvent extraction. Specifically, the wettability of the separator was enhanced by hydrophilic modification on one separator surface through polydopamine (PDA) and lipophilic modification on the other surface through SiO₂ or graphene oxide (GO). In addition, the modified surface of AEM with polyethyleneimine (PEI), PDA, poly(vinylidene fluoride) (PVDF), etc. reduces the water uptake and modify the pore structure for proton ions generation. The suppressed transport resulted in the reduced hydrogen ion permeation. In the characterization, the surface morphology, chemical properties and composition of membrane or AEM were analyzed with Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) and Fourier Transform-Infrared Spectroscopy (FT-IR). Based on the analyses, improved extraction and stripping and hydrogen ion transport inhibition were demonstrated for the copper ion recovery system.
