A pilot-scale electrodialysis system was designed and constructed to treat groundwater polluted with arsenic and manganese. Synthetic groundwater, in which some amount of arsenic and manganese was added to make 500 mg/L of Mn and $50{\mu}g/L$ of As, was used as a feed for the ED system. The limiting current density, linear water velocity, applied voltage, and membrane surface area were investigated to obtain efficient and economic operation of the ED system. The linear water velocity was increased 0.74 cm/s to 11 cm/s based on evaluation of limiting current density. The water quality of diluate for 85 minutes of operation was satisfied with water quality criteria for drinking water using the ED system with 14 pairs of ion exchange membranes. The increased membrane pairs to 21 and 42 pairs were very effective to reduce conductivities of the diluate. The operation cost of the ED system was assessed using specific energy consumption, which was $1.065{\sim}1.2kWh/m^3$. Considering low salt concentrations of the groundwater, improvement of the ED system are required to increase current utilization and to apply low voltage while the ED system was applicable to produce drinking water.

High functional catalyst to efficiently produce clean and earth-abundant renewable fuels plays a key role in securing energy sustainability and environmental protection of our society. Hydrogen has been considered as one of the most promising energy carrier as represented by focused research works on developing catalysts for the hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) from the water hydrolysis over the last several decades. So far, however, the major catalysts are expensive transition metals. Here using first principles density functional theory (DFT) calculations we screen various pyrites for HER by identifying fundamental descriptor governing the catalytic activity. We enable to capture a strong linearity between experimentally measured exchange current density in HER and calculated adsorption energy of hydrogen atom in the pyrites. The correlation implies that there is an underlying design principle tuning the catalytic activity of HER.

본 연구에서는 폐수 중에 함유된 황산이온을 전기투석 방법으로 회수하기 위하여 불균질 음이온교환막을 압출성형 방법으로 제조하였다. 불균질 음이온교환 막의 함수율, 이온교환용량 및 이온수송수는 이온교환 수지의 함량이 증가함에 따라 증가하였고 전기저항은 감소하였다. 또한 불균질 음이온교환막의 인장강도는 이온교환 수지의 함량이 증가함에 따라 감소하였으며 LLDPE막의 경우 인장강도는 수지의 함량이 30 wt%일 때 가장 높게 나타났다. 함수율은 이온교환 수지의 함량이 증가함에 따라 증가하였으며, 불균질 이온교환막의 이온수송수는 최대 0.86 이었고, 전기저항 값은 50 wt% 수지 함량의 LDPE 막이 $46.5{\Omega}{\cdot}cm^2$로 가장 높게 나타났다. 한편 제조한 막의 황산이온에 대한 전기투석 운전 결과 전류효율은 황산농도 0.5 mol/L, 전류밀도 $125 mA/cm^2$에서 가장 높게 나타났다.

It is shown that the maximum value of exchange current is obtained where hydrogen adsorption energy is near 0. This enables to estimate catalytic efficiency of a material with hydrogen adsorption energy, which is relatively easier to calculate with density fuctional theory (DFT) method. Strain dependence of the adsorption energy was studied with DFT method and adsorption energy of 0.04 eV per hydrogen atom is obtained at 30% strain.

음이온 교환막은 전기투석뿐만 아니라 역전기투석에 의한 전기생산과 축전 탈이온에 의한 정수 분야에 이용될 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 폴리비닐알콜 수용액 상에서 (vinylbenzyl)trimethylammonium chloride와 2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate를 중합한 후 글루타르산과의 에스테르화 반응, 그리고 글루타르알데히드와 가교반응을 통해서 음이온 교환막을 제조하였다. 실험 변수에 따라 음이온 교환막을 제조하고 이온교환막의 전기화학적 물성을 조사하였다. 중합반응에서 음이온 교환성 단량체 비율에 따라 이온교환량과 저항 값이 변하였으며, 에스테르화 반응에서는 글루타르산의 함량의 증가에 따라 함수율과 전도도가 감소하였다. 형성된 필름과 알데히드의 가교반응 시간 변화는 함수율, 전기저항, 이동수 값들에 영향을 미쳤다. 끝으로 제조된 이온 교환막의 chronopotentiometry와 한계전류밀도도 측정하였다.

Proton exchange memb rane fuel cell has been considered one of the next generation power source for electric vehicles due to high power density and low emissions. $TiO_2$/Nafion composite was prepared by the in-situ sol-gel method. The electrochemical characteristics of the $TiO_2$-Nafion composite membrane were evaluated by current-voltage and impedance of the membrane eletrode assembly in a single Proton exchange membrane fuel cell (PEMFC).

본 연구에서는 3차원 전산유체역학 모델을 적용하여 서펜타인 유로를 갖는 고분자 전해질 분리막(PEM) 연료전지의 성능평가를 수행하였다. PEM 연료전지의 전산 모델은 등온조건하에서의 이동현상을 고려하여, 물질 및 운동량 전달, 전극에서의 반응속도론 그리고 전기적 흐름을 모두 포함하였다. 한편, 병류로 흐르도록 형성된 구조의 유로 형태는 본 연료전지모델에서 유로의 폭과 높이의 비인 종횡비와 유로와 립 폭의 비인 반응면적비를 변화시키며 다양한 형상으로 고려되었다. 유로의 형상이 변화될 경우 연료전지 내부의 수소와 산소의 질량분율 분포가 계산되었으며, 이에 따라, 활성화과전압의 계산 값이 변하게 되며 전류밀도 분포가 최종적으로 결정되었다. CFD 결과는 종횡비가 클수록 성능이 증가하고 반응면적비가 클수록 성능이 감소하는 것을 보였다. 본 연구의 모델에 의하면 서펜타인 유로의 형상에 의해, 성능특성이 경향성을 보이는 결과를 보여주었으며, 이와같은 결과는 다른 문헌에 보고 된 CFD 결과들과 전반적으로 잘 부합하는 것으로 나타났다.

The feasibility of producing sulfuric acid and ammonia water from ammonium sulfate was investigated by an integrated process including ammonia stripping (AS) and electrodialysis with bipolar membrane (EDBM). It was suggested that the production of sulfuric acid using ammonia stripping-electrodialysis with bipolar membrane (ASEDBM) was effective in obtaining high concentration of sulfuric acid compared with EDBM alone. AS was carried out over pH 11 and within the range of temperatures, $20^{\circ}C{\~}60^{\circ}C$. Sodium sulfate obtained using AS was used as the feed solution of EDBM. The recovery of ammonia increased from $40\%$ to $80\%$ at $60^{\circ}C$ due to the increased mobility of ammonium ion. A pilot-scale EDBM system, which is composed of two compartments and 10 cell pairs with an effective membrane area of $200 cm^2$ per cell, was used for the recovery of sulfuric acid. The performance was examined in the range of 0.1 M${\~}$1.0 M concentration of concentrate compartment and of $25 mA/cm^2{\~}62.5 mA/cm^2$ of current density. The maximum current efficiency of $64.9\%$ was obtained at 0.1 M sulfuric acid because the diffusion rate at the anion exchange membrane decreased as the sulfuric acid of the concentrate compartment decreased. It was possible to obtain the 2.5 M of sulfuric acid in the $62.5 mA/cm^2$ with a power consumption of 13.0 kWh/ton, while the concentration of sulfuric acid was proportional to the current density below the limiting current density (LCD). Thus, the integrating process of AS-EDBM enables to recover sulfuric acid from the wastewaters containing ammonium sulfate.
