In this study, a hollow fiber support membrane was prepared by a non-solvent induced phase separation (NIPS) method using a polysulfone (PSf). The prepared hollow fiber support membrane was coated with PDMS and Pebax to prepare a hollow fiber composite membrane. The prepared composite membrane was measured for permeance and selectivity for pure CO₂, H₂, O₂ and N₂. Gas separation performance of the module having the highest selectivity (CO₂/H₂) among the prepared composite membrane modules was measured according to the change in stage cut using simulated gas. The composition of the simulated gas used at this time was 70% CO₂ and 30% H₂. In the 1 stage experiment, it was possible to obtain values of about 60% of H₂ concentration and 12% of H₂ recovery. In order to overcome the low H₂ concentration and recovery, 2 stage serial test was performed, and through this, it was possible to achieve 70% H₂ concentration and 70% recovery. Through this, it was possible to derive a separation process configuration for CO₂/H₂ separation.

This paper was carried out to study the preparation condition and the permeation flux of reinforced poly(vinylidene fluoride) (PVDF) hollow fiber microfiltration (MF) membrane with the solvent, additive, second miscible polymer, and preparation condition used poly(vinylidene fluoride) (PVDF) such as a material with the excellent chemical stability and the milder preparation condition. The performance of the reinforced MF membrane prepared obtained the average $0.3{\mu}m$ pore size, $42kg_f/cm^2$ tensile strength, and the high water flux of 600 LMH. The change of membrane performance with various additives was considerably affected on the water flux and rejection. For hydrophilic modification of hydrophobic PVDF MF membrane, the MF membrane might be prepared with a prefer water flux and rejection by addition of hydrophilic poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA).

To prepare the hollow fiber nanofiltration composite membranes, the poly(vinylidene fluoride) (PVDF) membrane was hydrophilized with $K_2Cr_2OH$ and $KMnO_4$ aqueous solutions. And then the composite membrane was synthesized on that membrane surfaces using interfacial polymerization with piperazine (PIP) and trimesoyl chloride (TMC). The resulting membranes were characterized in terms of the rejection and flux for NaCl, $CaSO_4$, $MgCl_2$ 100 ppm solution and 300 ppm of NaCl and $CaSO_4$ mixed solution by varying the coating time, drying time, and the concentration of the coating materials. As a result, the higher rejections were shown for $K_2Cr_2OH$ solutionas a hydrophilization material, and the flux was enhanced while the rejection reduced as the hydrophilization time is longer. Also, the rejection increased and the flux reduced as the concentrations of triethyl amine (TEA) and sodium lauryl sulfate (SLS) were higher. Typically, the rejection 50% and flux 40 LMH for NaCl 100 ppm solution, and the rejection 55% and flux 48 LMH for $CaSO_4$ 100 ppm solution were obtained for the PVDF hollow fiber composite membrane prepared with the conditions of PIP 2 wt% (Triethyl amine (TEA) 7 wt%, SLS 20 wt% mixed solution against PIP concentration) and TMC 0.1 wt%.

The purpose of this paper was to find out the proper equation to predict the gas transfer rate for designing intravenous artificial lung assist device. The prepared hollow fiber modules were examined under various experimental conditions through experimental modeling before inserted the artificial lung assist d $\varepsilon$ vice into as venous. As a result, we can estimate the gas transfer as a function of the packing density. The gas transfer obtained from the experiment was similar to that from the equation, confirming the usefulness equation. Therefore, we can conclude the gas transfer of the intravenous artificial lung assist device as a function of the packing density, and this functions are very useful for predicting the gas transfer of the intravenous artificial lung assist device.

막분리공정에서 분리막 오염은 투과율 감소에 큰 영향을 받는데 그 이유는 주로 막재질의 변질 및 막 표면에서의 농도 분극 현상에 기인하고 분리막의 종류 및 분획분자량의 차이에 따라 막분리 능력이 달라질 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 상용화되어 있는 UF/MF 중공사막에 미치는 막오염 정도와 세정 특성을 알아보았다. 막오염 정도는 막의 Pore size, 소재, 막구조에 따라서 단백질 수용액을 처리하여 막의 오염이 어떻게 일어나는지를 알아보았고 막오염 정도를 검토하기 위하여 초기순수에 대한 흡착후 투과량을 DOF(Degree of fouling)로 정의하였다. 막의 세정특성은 0.1N-NaOH을 사용하여 화학적 세정효과를 확인하였고 초기 순수에 대한 세정후 회복정도를 DOC(Degree of Cleaning)로 정의하였다. 또한 UF막에서 분획분자량별 특성과 MF막에서 소재별/구조적 특성이 DOF와 DOC에 미치는 영향에 대해서 알아보았다.

Chinese CGMS (Cytoplasmic-Genetic Male Sterility) is being transfered to Korean cultivars which will be used as CGMS maintainers. These maintainer lines along with the Chinese CGMS lines and their maintainer lines were crossed with another group of Korean cultivars which will be used as the fertility restorers, and their yield heterosis were examined. The yield heterosis was calculated as high as 113.0-221.1 % in terms of heterosis (F$_1$/Midparent) with the grand mean of 150.5%, and, 86.1-179.8% in terms of heterobeltiosis (F$_1$/better parent) with the grand mean of 125.3%. Among the female parent groups, Chinese mainteiners were the highest following by Chinese MS lines and the Korean maintainers were the lowest. Heterobeltiosis of yield components were 92.7%, 120.0%, 103.0% and 112.0% for number of panicles/unit area, number of grains/panicle, fertility per cent and 1000 grain weight, respectively. Path-coefficients of yield components to the yield were calculated. The highest one was number of grains per panicle ranging 0.8073-0.8649 followed by the 1000 grain weight ranging 0.2000-0.5032. The grain yield ratios to the grand mean were calculated in terms of combining ability. It was highest with the Chinese maintainers followed by Chinese MS lines and The Korean maintainers were lowest. This facts bring cautions to the breeding efforts to transfer the Chinese CGMS in to Korean maintainers.

In this study, a novel bioreactor system using a submerged hollow fiber membrane module (so called hollow fiber membrane bioreactor, HFMB) was applied to investigate feasibility and biodegradation capacity of the system for the treatment of gaseous toluene. First an abiotic test was conducted to determine the mass transfer coefficient, showing the value was similar to that obtained from a diffuser system using fine bubbles. Second, in the presence of toluene-degrading microorganisms, the HFMB was operated at different inlet toluene loading rates of 50, 100, $500\;g/m^3/hr$, and overall removal efficiencies were maintained in the range of $70{\sim}80%$. In addition, elimination capacities(EC) were increased up to $800\;g/m^3/hr$, which was substantially higher than maximum ECs for toluene reported in the biofiltration literature. Consequently, the HFMB was considered as an alternative method over other conventional VOC-treating technologies.

We prepared composite membrane which was made with polysulfone supported hollow fiber membrane coated with Hyflon AD to eliminate $CO_2$ gas from mixed-gases which were generated in DME manufacturing processes. The performance of module about simulated flaring gas was measured by using manufactured composite membrane. 1-stage evaluation result shows $CO_2$ concentration was below 3% at 1.2 MPa and at Stage cut 0.24 above. In addition $CO_2$ removal rate and $CH_4$ recovery rate was 80% respectively at the same condition. 2-stage evaluation result shows, when the $CO_2$ concentration of product gas was fixed at 5%, recycled $CO_2$ at stage cut 0.074 had the same concentration as the feed gas and the recovery rate of $CH_4$ was 99% at the moment.
