물속의 용존산소를 이용하면 물고기가 아가미를 이용하여 호흡하듯이 사람이 수중에서 호흡이 가능하지만, 물속에 포함된 용존산소의 양이 적기 때문에 필요한 산소량을 확보하는 문제가 해결되어야 한다. 우선 물의 유량을 증가시켜 분리되는 산소량을 증가하는 것이 가능하지만, 필요한 펌프와 멤브레인 그리고 주변기기의 용량 증가로 분리장치의 부피와 무게 그리고 소요비용도 함께 증가하게 된다. 이러한 문제를 효과적으로 해결하기 위해 많은 양의 산소를 포함하는 날숨의 특성을 이용하면 필요한 산소량을 효과적으로 확보할 수 있다. 일반적으로 날숨에 포함된 산소량은 공기보다 낮고, 이산화탄소 량은 공기보다 많은 것으로 알려져 있다. 본 연구에서는 용존기체 분리장치의 입력 단에 날숨을 혼합한 후, 용존기체 분리장치에서 산소를 포함하는 용존기체를 재분리하는 과정을 거치며, 이때, 입력단에 설치된 수중펌프의 동작으로 수압이 증가하므로, 이러한 수압을 갖는 물에 날숨을 혼합하기 위해서는 압축기가 요구되므로 분리장치의 무게와 부피 그리고 소비 전력이 증가하게 된다. 본 연구에서는 입력단의 압력을 감소시킴으로써 압축기를 사용하지 않고도 날숨을 물에 혼합하는 구조를 갖는 것이 특징이다. 실험을 통해 압축기를 사용하지 않고 날숨이 입력단의 물에 혼합되는 것이 가능함을 제시하였으며, 날숨이 입력단에 공급된 후 분리장치를 통해 분리된 기체의 분리특성을 제시하였다. 날숨을 사용함으로써 용존기체의 분리량이 크게 증가하였으며, 공급되는 날숨의 유량이 증가하면 분리되는 용존 기체의 양도 증가하였다.

The emission of carbon dioxide from the burning of fossil fuels has been identified as a major contributor to green house emissions and subsequent global warming and climate changes. For these reasons, it is necessary to separate and recover $CO_2$ gas. A new process based on gas hydrate crystallization is proposed for the $CO_2$ separation/recovery of the gas mixture. In this study, gas hydrate from $CO_2/H_2$ gas mixtures was formed in a semi-batch stirred vessel at a constant pressure and temperature. This mixture is of interest to $CO_2$ separation and recovery in Integrated Coal Gasification (IGCC) plants. The impact of tetrahydrofuran (THF) on hydrate formation from the $CO_2/H_2$ was observed. The addition of THF not only reduced the equilibrium formation conditions significantly but also helped ease the formation of hydrates. This study illustrates the concept and provides the basic operations of the separation/recovery of $CO_2$ (pre-combustion capture) from a fuel gas ($CO_2/H_2$) mixture.

It's possible for a human to breathe under water, if dissolved oxygen is effectively used. Fish can stay under water using the gill which extracts dissolved oxygen from water. Water includes small amounts of oxygen, so a human needs larger amounts of water to acquire oxygen enough for underwater breathing. The exhalation gas from a human is another method to get higher amounts of oxygen under water. It mainly composes of oxygen, nitrogen and carbon dioxide. So, if only carbon dioxide is decreased, the exhalation gas has good characteristics for breathing of a human under water. In this paper, composition of the exhalation gas from a human was analyzed using GC. Based on these results, the synthesized gas was prepared and mixed into water which was used for experimental devices to analyze separation characteristics of dissolved gases from water. Experimental devices included a water pump, a hollow fiber membrane module and a vacuum pump. The effects of pressure and water flow on separation characteristics of synthesized gas were investigated. The compositions of gases separated from water using synthesized gas were investigated using GC. These results expect to be applied to the development of underwater breathing technology for a human.

Separation of EPA and DHA from fish oil fatty acid ethyl ester (FAFE) by urea adductive crystallization method was carried out in the supercritical carbon dioxide (SC $CO_2$) as a solvent. Our results showed that SC $CO_2$ is a good candidate as a solvent in the urea adductive crystallization to separate FAFE by the number of unsaturated bonds. Compared to the separation process using methanol. SC $CO_2$ yielded better performance in the overall selectivity of EPA and DHA. The effect of process variables on separation of EPA and DHA was discussed in detailed. A hybrid technology of SC $CO_2$ fractionation and urea adductive crystallization with SC $CO_2$ was conformed as a viable process to separate and concentrate EPA and DHA from fish oil.

It is possible for humans to breathe underwater using dissolved oxygen. However, unlike fish, humans need large amounts of oxygen to breathe underwater. Water generally contains small amounts of dissolved oxygen. To get enough dissolved oxygen from water, great volumes of it should be supplied into a separation device. If exhalation gases are used, the amounts of water supplied into the membrane can be decreased. However, the characteristics of exhalation gases after passage through the separation device need to be investigated. To reuse the exhalation gases, the concentration of carbon dioxide should be decreased. A compressor is needed to supply the exhalation gases because of the high pressure generated in the membrane inlet. However, compressors require a lot of power and are heavy, so it is not proper to get the portable separation device. A system without the compressor is needed. If the pressure of the position mixed from the exhalation is less than atmosphere, the compressor is not needed. In this thesis, characteristics of the gases which are mixed with exhalation gases and separated from water after passing the membrane are investigated. The compositions of carbon dioxide, oxygen, and nitrogen are measured with the gas chromatography. The effects of water and exhalation gas flow rates on characteristics of gases separated from water after the membrane are showed.

In different approaches were extracted from evening primrose seed by supercritical fluids carbon dioxide and for comparison with hexane as solvent. The extracts have been analyzed qualitatively and quantitatively to evaluate yield and selectivity of ${\gamma}$-linolenic acid. The yields extracts with supercritical fluids carbon dioxide were higher than those with hexane. When this process produces commercially, will get a many economic profit.

본 연구에서는 중공사형 이산화탄소 분리막 모듈을 사용하여 수소개질기 배가스로부터 이산화탄소 포집을 목적으로 한 분리막 공정 최적화 연구를 진행하였다. 랩스케일의 소형 분리막 모듈을 사용하여 혼합기체를 대상으로 이산화탄소 순도 90% 및 회수율 90%을 달성하는 2단 공정 조건을 도출하였다. 막 면적이 정해진 모듈의 분리막 공정에서는 스테이지-컷, 주입부 및 투과부 압력에 따라서 포집 순도 및 회수율이 모두 다르게 나타나기 때문에 운전 조건에 대한 최적화가 필수적이다. 본 연구에서는 다양한 운전 조건에서 1단 분리막에서 보이는 공정 포집 효율의 한계를 확인하고, 높은 순도와 회수율을 동시에 달성하기 위한 2단 회수 공정을 최적화하였다.

Supercritical carbon dioxide extraction was investigated as a method for removing lipids and bad flavor from tuna viscera. To find the optimum conditions, different experimental variables, such as pressure, temperature, flow rate of solvent and sample size, were evaluated for the effective removal of lipids and the undesirable smell. Ethanol was used as the entrainer, with a $3\%$ by vol $CO_2$ flow rate. By increasing the pressure at constant temperature, the efficiency of the lipid removal was improved and the protein was concentrated without denaturalization. The main fatty acids extracted from the tuna viscera were palmitic acid (16:0), heptadecanoic acid (17:1), oleic acid (18:1) and docosahexaenoic acid (22:6). The major amino acids in the tuna viscera treated by supercritical carbon dioxide were glutamic acid, leucine and lysine, and the free amino acids were L-proline, taurine and L-$\alpha$-aminoadipic acid.

This study aims to select suitable co-solvents and to obtain optimal process conditions in order to improve process efficiency and productivity through experimental results obtained under various experimental conditions for the etching and rinsing process using liquid carbon dioxide and supercritical carbon dioxide. Acetone was confirmed to be effective through basic experiments and used as the etching solution for MEMS-wafer etching in this study. In the case of using liquid carbon dioxide as the solvent and acetone as the etching solution, these two components were not mixed well and showed a phase separation. Liquid carbon dioxide in the lower layer interfered with contact between acetone and Mems-wafer during etching, and the results after rinsing and drying were not good. Based on the results obtained under various experimental conditions, the optimum process for treating MEMS-wafer using supercritical CO2 as the solvent, acetone as the etching solution, and methanol as the rinsing solution was set up, and MEMS-wafer without stiction can be obtained by continuous etching, rinsing and drying process. In addition, the amount of the etching solution (acetone) and the cleaning liquid (methanol) compared to the initial experimental values can be greatly reduced through optimization of process conditions.

화력발전소로부터 배출되는 이산화탄소를 분리하기 위하여 급수가 다른 아민을 혼합한 개선 흡수제를 개발하고자 하였다. 급수가 다른 1, 2, 3급 아민을 혼합한 후 이산화탄소 부분압에 따른 이산화탄소 흡수능을 조사하였다. 동일한 압력에서 이산화탄소 흡수능은 3DMA1P 30wt%>3DMA1P 27wt%+MEA 3wt%>3DMA1P 27wt%+DEA 3wt% 순으로 나타내었으며, 이는 3급인 3DMA1P에 2급인 DEA보다는 1급인 MEA를 혼합하는 것이 우수한 흡수능을 보이고 있다. 따라서 흡수능이 우수한 3급 아민에 흡수속도를 높이기 위하여 1급 아민을 혼합하는 것이 유리함을 알 수 있다. 최종적으로 준경험 기액 평형모델을 이용하여 실험 결과를 계산한 결과 실험치와 잘 일치하였다.
