한국인으로는 처음 국제원자력기구 산하의 국제원자력해수담수화 자문위원회 위원장으로 선임된 김시환박사를 만나 보았다. 김박사는 "앞으로 3년의 임기동안 회원국들과 협의를 거쳐 원자력해수담수화에 사용될 원자로 개발과 시범플랜트 건설 등을 적극 추진하겠다"고 다짐했다.

This study was conducted to supply information that can be utilized as data for desalination plant construction in the future by estimating unit cost of water production in the potential site of Incheon, Daesan, Yeosu, Busan, Ulsan and Sokcho in Korea. The production costs in Sokcho and Ulsan were similar to those of Busan and Yeosu. Those four sites showed better economic range due to low construction cost for intake facility compared to Incheon and Daesan. Although the salinity measured in the above 6 sites did not show perceptible effect on the production cost, the difference of seasonal seawater temperature needs to be considered due to the change of flux in reverse osmosis (RO) membrane. It turned out that the most critical parameters are the amortization in a year by the analysis of life cycle and the capacity of plant. Incheon and Daesan showed the difference of production cost up to 29% at the condition of amortization in 25 year, and up to 22% depending on plant capacity. However, the production cost in this study did not take into account of other indirect costs, therefore, this should be considered as the minimum cost.

Korea is presently the leading country in global desalination industry and has been investing a large amount of money and human resources in development of new core technologies to increase its' share of global market. In this paper, we reviewed world-wide trends of the advanced water industry and outlined various seawater desalination technologies developed so far. We also made some analysis on the directions and results of the government-lead R&D sponsorship in the field of seawater-freshening technology. Present studies showed that we need an institutional strategy to help domestic companies guarantee the credibility of the technologies developed by themselves based upon their experience of plant operation. Futhermore, strategic R&D programs to develope original technologies and localization of key components for desalination plants should be preceded in the near future.

해수로 부터 담수를 얻기 위한 방법으로는 증발법, 역삼 투압법, 전기투석법, 냉동법등을 들 수 있다. 이 중에서 역삼투압법은 상변화가 필요없기 때문에 소요 에너지가 적고 장치가 COMPACT 하여 설치비 및 설치부지가 적게든다는 이점을 가지고 있으며, 특히 최근에는 우수한 분리막의 개발 및 공정 기술의 향상으로 다른 공정들에 비해 경쟁력을 갖게 되었다. 본고는 인도네시아, WEST JAVA의 한 석유 화학 단지를 조성 하는데 있어 각 공장에 필요한 공업 용수를 일괄 공급 하기위한 해수 담수화공장 (8000 m$^3$일, 향후증설 8000 m$^3$일)을 건설하기 위한 것으로서 코오롱 엔지니어링(주)에서 수행한 타당성 조사 및 엔지니어링 결과를 토대로 작성된 것이다.

A new apparatus for seawater desalination, based on the principle of gas hydrates, is suggested. The equipment continuously produces and pelletizes gas hydrates by a squeezing operation in a dual cylinder unit, which is able to extract pure hydrate pellets from the seawater-containing reactor. Desalination efficiency for each dissolved ion from seawater samples was tested by inductively coupled plasma atomic emission spectroscopy (ICP-AES) and ion chromatography (IC) analysis. This study demonstrates that the suggested method and the stated apparatus may solve the difficulty of separating hydrate crystals from concentrated brine solutions, and therefore may be applied to improve the efficiency of existing desalination processes.

A cost analysis method for pretreament processes of a large scale seawater desalination plant was considered using a cost estimation model, WaTER (Water Treatment Estimation Routine). This model is based on cost functions of U.S. EPA to conduct economic analysis of water treatment facilities. A virtual seawater desalination plant which has pretreatment production capacity of $100,000m^3$ per day was chosen as a model plant. Dual media filtration and microfiltration systems were compared as pretreatment process, and the following reverse osmosis process was modeled. As a result, microfiltration showed a price competitiveness in condition of operating with reverse osmosis process by reducing the loads of water treatment and membrane cleaning despite it's high annual cost.
