니오븀 금속을 기반으로 하는 $Nb_{56}Ti_{23}Ni_{21}$ 합금 분리막의 수소 투과 특성 및 화학적 안정성에 관한 연구를 수행하였다. 이를 위하여 직경 10 mm, 두께 0.5 mm의 $Nb_{56}Ti_{23}Ni_{21}$ 합금 분리막을 제작하였으며, 2가지 조성($H_2$ 100%, $H_2$ 60% + $CO_2$ 40%)의 공급가스를 $450^{\circ}C$의 온도에서 투과시킬 때 압력에 따른 수소 투과 특성에 관한 실험을 진행하였다. 본 실험에서의 최대 수소 투과량은 순수한 수소를 투과시킬 경우 절대압력 3 bar에서 $5.58mL/min/cm^2$로 나타났다. 또한 공급가스 조성에 따른 각각의 경우 모두 Sievert's law에 잘 부합하였으며, 이산화탄소와의 혼합가스 사용시, 투과량은 수소 분압 감소에 비례하여 감소하였다. 투과 실험 후 XRD 분석을 통하여 $Nb_{56}Ti_{23}Ni_{21}$ 합금 분리막의 이산화탄소에 대한 화학적 안정성에 대한 실험을 수행하였다.

에너지 패러다임의 변화가 요구되는 현대에 수소는 매력적인 에너지원이다. 이러한 수소를 정제하는 기술 중에서 분리막을 이용한 기술은 저비용으로 고순도의 수소를 정제할 수 있는 기술로 주목받고 있다. 그러나 수소 분리 성능이 뛰어난 팔라듐(Pd)은 가격이 매우 비싸 이를 대체한 소재가 필요하다. 본 연구에서는 수소 투과 성능은 좋으나 수소 취성에 약한 니오븀(Nb)과 수소 투과 성능은 떨어지나 내구성이 뛰어난 니켈(Ni)과 지르코늄(Zr)을 혼합한 합금으로 분리막을 제조하여 1~4 bar, 350~450 ℃ 조건에서 수소 투과 특성을 확인하였다. Pd를 코팅하지 않은 Ni₄₈Nb₃₂Zr₂₀ 분리막의 경우 최대 0.69 ml/cm²/min의 투과량을 보였으며, Pd가 코팅된 경우에는 최대 13.05 ml/cm²/min의 투과량을 보였다.

본 연구에서는 sulfur-succinic acid의 가교제를 이용한 가교된 폴리비닐알코올(poly(vinyl alcohol), PVA) 가교막을 이용하여 MTBE-methanol 혼합액에 대하여 조업온도, 가교제의 조성에 따른 증기투과 공정의 투과 특성을 조사 하였다. 팽윤 실험을 통해 PVA/SSA 가교막에 대하여 가교제 조성에 따른 막의 구조와 PVA의 하이드록실기(-OH), SSA의 설폰기(-$SO_3$H)와 용매와의 수소결합의 두 가지 인자가 상호 보완적으로 작용하고 있음을 알 수 있었다. 투과 특성에 있어 SSA의 설폰기가 중요한 인자로 작용하였다. 예를 들면 7% SSA 막에 대해서는 수소결합의 효과보다는 가교도의 효과가 투과 특성에 중요한 요인으로 작용하며 5% SSA에 대해서는 수소결합의 효과가 중요하게 작용하였다. 증기투과 공정에 있어 막과 직접 접촉하는 증기상이 액상에 비하여 methanol의 농도가 낮아 PVA의 하이드록실기와 methanol과의 수소결합 확률이 감소함에 따라 투과 특성에 영향을 미친다. 결과적으로 7% SSA 막에 대하여 MTBE/mthanol=80/20 혼합액에 대하여 공급액의 온도 3$0^{\circ}C$에서 선택도 2187, 투과도 4.84g/$m^2$hr를 보여 주었다.

The transport mechanisms of the MTES (methyltriethoxysilane) templating silica/a-alumina composite membrane were evaluated by using four binary and one quaternary hydrogen mixtures through permeation experiments at unsteady- and steady-states. Since the permeation flux in the MTES membrane, through the experimental and theoretical studies, was affected by molecular sieving effects as well as surface diffusion properties, the kinetic and equilibrium separation should be considered simultaneously according to molecular properties. In order to depict the transient multi-component permeation on the templating silica membrane, the GMS (generalized Maxwell-Stefan) and DGM (dust gas model) were adapted to unsteady-state material balance.

This paper deals with the separation of MTBE-methanol mixtures using crosslinked Poly(vinyl alcohol)(PVA) membranes with sulfur-succinic acid(SSA) as a crosslinking agent by pervaporation and vapor permeation technique. The operating temperatures, methanol concentration in feed mixtures, and SSA concentrations in PVA membranes were varied to investigate the separation performance of PVA/SSA membranes and the optimum separation characteristics by pervaporation and vapor permeation. And also, for PVA/SSA membranes, the swelling measurements were carried out to study the transport phenomena. The swelling measurements were carried out for pure MTBE and methanol, and MTBE/methanol=90/10, 80/20 mixtures using PVA/SSA membranes with varying SSA compositions. There are two factors of the membrane network and the hydrogen bonding. In pervaporation separation was also carried out for MTBE/methanol=90/10, 80/20 mixtures at various temperatures. The sulfuric acid group in SSA took an important role in the membrane performance. The crosslinking effect might be over the hydrogen bonding effect due to the sulfuric acid group at 3 and 5% SSA membranes, and this two factors act vice versa on 7% SSA membrane. In this case, the 5% SSA membrane shows the highest separation factor of 2,095 with the flux of 12.79g/㎡$.$hr for MTBE/methanol=80/20 mixtures at 30$^{\circ}C$ which this mixtures show near the azeotopic composition. Compared to pervaporation, vapor permeation showed less flux and similar separation factor. In this case, the flux decreased significantly because of compact structure and the effect of hydrogen bonding. In vapor permeation, density or concentration of methanol in vaporous feed is lower than that of methanol in liquid feed, as a result, the hydrogen bonding portion between the solvent and the hydroxyl group in PVA is reduced in vapor permeation. In this case, the 7% SSA membranes shows the highest separation factor of 2,187 with the flux of 4.84g/㎡$.$hr for MTBE/methanol=80/20 mixtures at 30$^{\circ}C$.

팔라듐이 코팅된 $V_{99.8}B_{0.2}$ 합금 분리막을 통해 sweep 가스를 사용하지 않고 수소 투과 시 혼합가스의 영향에 대해 알아보았다. 분리막은 $400^{\circ}C$에서 sweep 가스를 사용하지 않고 순수 수소, 수소/이산화탄소, 수소/일산화탄소의 혼합가스를 1.5~8.0 bar의 압력으로 실험하였다. Sweep 가스를 사용하지 않고 수소만을 공급한 투과 실험에서 팔라듐 코팅된 $V_{99.8}B_{0.2}$ 합금 분리막(두께 : 0.5 mm)의 수소 투과량은 $40.7mL/min/cm^2$였다. 또한 수소/이산화탄소를 공급한 투과실험에서 $V_{99.8}B_{0.2}$ 합금 분리막의 수소 투과량은 $21.4mL/min/cm^2$였다. 수소/이산화탄소 및 수소/일산화탄소 혼합가스를 각각 공급할 때 투과량은 압력에 상관없이 수소 분압 감소 만큼 감소하였고 모든 경우 Sievert 법칙을 잘 만족시켰다. 투과 후 분리막의 XRD, SEM/EDX 결과로부터 $V_{99.8}B_{0.2}$ 합금 분리막은 여러 혼합가스에 대해 안정성과 내구성이 우수하다는 것을 알 수 있었다.

Hydrogen as a high-quality and clean energy carrier has attracted renewed and ever-increasing attention around the world in recent years, mainly due to developments in fuel cells and environmental pressures including climate change issues. In this processes for hydrogen production from fossil fuels, separation and purification is a critical technology. $(Ni_{60}-Nb_{40})_{95}-Pd_5$ alloy ingots were prepared by arc-melting the mixture of pure metals in an Ar atmosphere. Melt-spun ribbons were produced by the single-roller melt-spinning technique in an Ar atmosphere. Amorphous structure and thermal behavior were characterized by XRD and DSC. The permeability of the $(Ni_{60}-Nb_{40})_{95}-Pd_5$ amorphous alloy membrane was characterized by hydrogen permeation experiments in the temperature range 623 to 773 K and pressure of 2 bars. The maximum hydrogen permeability was $3.54{\times}10^{-9}[mol{\cdot}m^{-1}s^{-1}{\cdot}pa^{-1/2}]$ at 773 K for the $(Ni_{60}-Nb_{40})_{95}-Pd_5$ amorphous alloy.

To utilize hydrogen energy, high-yield, high-purity hydrogen needs to be produced; therefore, hydrogen separation membrane studies are being conducted. The membrane reactor that fabricates hydrogen needs to have high hydrogen permeability, selective permeability, heatresistant and a stable mechanical membrane. Dense membranes of Pd and Pd alloys are usually used, but these have drawbacks associated with high cost and durability. Therefore, many researchers have studied replacing Pd and Pd alloys. Dense TiN membrane is highly selective and can separate high-purity hydrogen. The porous alumina has a high permeation rate but low selectivity; therefore, separating high-purity hydrogen is difficult. To overcome this drawback, the two materials are combined as composite reclamations to produce a separation membrane with a high penetration rate and high selectivity. Accordingly, TiN-alumina was manufactured using a high-energy ball mill. The TiN-alumina membrane was characterized by X-ray diffraction analysis, scanning electron microscopy, and energy dispersive spectroscopy. The hydrogen permeability of the TiN-alumina membrane was estimated by a Sievert-type hydrogen permeation membrane apparatus. Due to the change in the diffusion mechanism, the transmittance value was lower than that of the general TiN ceramic separator.
