The feasibility of applying coagulation-integrated microfiltration (MF) as a pretreatment for an ultrafiltration (UF) feed in oily wastewater treatment was investigated. The effects of different coagulants on oil removal rates from wastewater were studied. The maximum oil removal rate of 82% was obtained after coagulation with 130 mg/L of polyaluminium chloride (PAC). UF flux reached $95L/(m^2{\cdot}h)$ with coagulation-integrated MF as pretreatment. This value was 2.5 times higher than that flux obtained without pretreatment. The value of UF flux increased as the transmembrane pressure (TMP) and cross-flow velocity (CFV) of the UF module increased. UF flux gradually increased when TMP and CFV exceeded 0.4 MPa and 3 m/s, respectively, because of concentration polarization and membrane fouling stabilization. Chemical oxygen demand reduction and oil removal rate reached 95.2% and 98.5%, respectively, during integrated membrane processing with a PAC concentration of 130 mg/L, TMP of 0.4 MPa, and CFV of 3 m/s for UF. In addition, sequentially cleaning the fouling membrane with NaOH and $HNO_3$ aqueous solutions caused UF flux to recover to 90%. These encouraging results suggested that the hybrid integrated membrane process-based coagulation and MF + UF are effective approaches for oily wastewater treatment.

염색폐수 처리를 위해 세라믹 정밀여과막 (MF)과 고분자 한외여과막 (UF)의 복합공정을 적용, 색도 및 유기물 (TOC) 제거율을 통해 공정을 최적화하고, 염색폐수의 분리효율을 조사하였다. 막 회복을 통한 운전 효율향상을 위해 역세척과 화학세정을 수행한 결과, 역세척에 의한 정밀여과막은 2분 주기로 1초 동안 역세척하였을때 투과수량이 10.3% 증가하였고, 한외여과막은 0.1% 수산화나트륨 용액으로 화학세정하였을 때 97%의 회복률을 나타내었다. 이때, 유기물, 색도, 부유물질(SS)의 제거율은 각각 84.6%, 97.4% 및 100%를 나타내었다. 분 복합공정의 적용은 염색폐수의 색도와 유기물 제거에 효과적임을 확인할 수 있었다.

NDMA(N-Nitrosodimethylamine)는 극저농도(10ng/L)에서도 암을 일으킬 수 있는 물질로 알려져 있지만, 기존의 NDMA 제거율 평가 연구는 고농도의 NDMA를 대상으로 한 것이 대부분이었다. 따라서 극저농도의 NDMA 제거효율 평가가 필요하며 그 기초연구로써 호기성/혐기성 조건에서의 분말활성탄, GS(Granular Sludge), MF(Microfiltration), UF(Ultrafiltration)를 이용한 제거효율과 Silica gel(MCM-41, Diatomite, Spherical silica gel)을 이용한 제거효율을 평가하였다. 그 결과 혐기성 조건에서 GS, PAC를 접촉한 후 UF membrane을 이용한 고액분리가 65%의 제거율로 가장 높았으며, Silica gel(MCM-41)이 6%의 제거율로 가장 낮았다. 본 연구는 극저농도의 NDMA 제거의 기초 연구로서 향후 관련 연구의 기초자료로써 활용을 기대한다.

청주지방의 민속주인 대추술은 제조과정중 고유한 대추술의 풍미의 손실로 인한 상품가치가 감소되는 문제점이 있다. 특히 가열살균 공정에서의 품질저하를 개선하고자 미세여과와 한외여과 시스템을 적용하여 다음과 같은 결과를 얻었다. $0.2\;{\mu}m$와 50K dalton의 hollow-fiber module을 사용하여 대추술을 여과시에 시간에 따른 투과플럭스의 변화는 초기 10분 경과시까지 급속히 저하되었으며, 공정압력이 높을수록 투과유속이 증가하였다. 막을 투과한 대추술의 색은 L값이 증가하고 b값이 감소하여 밝고 엷어졌으며, 탁도는 크게 낮아져 청징되었다. 또한 pH, 알코올, 총산 및 당도는 같거나 약간 낮아졌으며, 유기산과 유리당은 80%이상 회수되었다. 또한 이들의 성분은 적용압력에는 큰 영향을 받지 않았다. 관능검사 결과 대추술을 미세여과와 한외여과시 색은 맑고 밝으며 연하여지나 오히려 선호도가 좋은 것으로 나타났으며, 맛과 향은 시판제품에서 강하게 느끼던 화독내가 적고 무처리 발효주와 비슷한 맛과 향을 보여줘 미세여과와 한외여과법이 기존의 여과와 가열살균법에 비하여 관능적 품질을 개선시킬 수 있음을 보여주었다. 또한 선호도를 조사한 관능검사 결과 미세여과와 한외여과 술은 같은 그룹으로 구분되어 차이가 없으므로 처리 효율이 좋은 미세여과 법만으로도 대추술의 품질을 크게 개선시킬 수 있음을 알 수 있었다.

The Microfiltration and Ultrafiltration were used to treat effluent of secondary municipal wastewater treatment system(Sequencing Batch Reactor). The cross-flow hollow fiber, UF 500,000(NMWC) and MF 0.65$\mu$ membrane were selected as suitable membrane. Short term and long term fouling effect were measured as a factor of flux decrease and the fouling removal effect of mixing air bubble in the penetrant was studied. The removal of anionic sulfactants before and after formation of micelle with several kinds of oil were checked. The test results show that removal of TOC was 70~80%, TN 28% and TP 16%. The decrease of flux due to fouling were 85%(UF) and 90%(MF) after running of 100hrs. The removal of anionic sulfactants were 60~70% notwithstanding micelle or not.

Three pilot-scale membrane systems were operated using lake water as influent in this study. Microfiltration (MF) membrane with pore size of 0.01 m was used in Systen I of which filtration mode was set at constant pressure of $1kgf/cm^2$. Ultrafiltration (UF) membranes with molecular cutoff (MWCO) of 80,000 and 13,000 were used in System II-1 and II-2, respectively. Constant flow mode was applied at the range between 0.7 and $1.5m^3/m^2{\cdot}d$ (average of $1.1m^3/m^2${\cdot}d) for System II-1 and between 0.37 and $1.65m^3/m^2{\cdot}d$ (average of $1.18m^3/m^2{\cdot}d$) for System II-2. In System I, the flux changed from $1m^3/m^2{\cdot}d$ to $0.2m^3/m^2{\cdot}d$ during the operation time of 5 months. System II showed recovery of 94% under the allowable maximum pressure of $3kgf/cm^2$ during the same operation period. From these results, the efficient operation was observed in constant flow mode with respect to filtration time and recovery. Average filtrate turbidity showed 0.0071 NTU in System I and 0.0054 NTU in System II, which implied that high turbidity removal was obtained in both MF and UF systems with no significant difference between MF and UF. From the fact that membrane flux depends largely on membrane type and operation mode, a guideline of optimum design and operation should be suggested for application of membrane systems to full scale water treatment.

With a belief of high water quality production and less chemical usage, membrane technology including Microfiltration (MF), Ultrafiltration (UF), and Nanofiltration(NF) is being employed more and more in drinking water treatment process. However, due to higher energy consumption of UF and NF, MF is normally used for drinking water treatment especially in a plant of large scale. In this investigation, performance ofsand filtration and membrane filtration was compared regarding removal of various water quality parameters, such as TOC, DOC, KMnO4 consumption, THMFP, and HAAFP. Two lines of pilot plant have been operated, one of which line is a traditional advanced water treatment process which includes sedimentation, sand filtration, ozonation, and activated carbon, and the other line is an alternative treatment process which includes sedimentation with inclined plate, MF membrane, ozonation, and activated carbon. For the first about 4months of period, MF filtration showed similar or little bit higher performance than sand filtration. However, after about 4month later, sand filtration showed much higher performance in removing all parameters monitored in the investigation. It was found that sand filtration is a better option than MF filtration as far as microbial community is fully activated in sand filter bed.

In this work, Aqueous sericin solution was prepared by degumming process with electrolytic reduction water. Then, the microfiltration and ultrafiltration systems were applied to the concentration of aqueous sericin solution. The objective of this study was to select the optimum operating condition among the different pressure. The permeate flux and rejection ratio were observed with time, pressure, flow rate and concentration. and, the wastewater and permeated water quality values such as pH, BOD, COD, and NH levels were measured. In order to see the influence of electrolytic reduction water, the flux of pure water and electrolytic reduction water by PVDF22(MF) and PS100(UF) membrane was measured. In microfiltration system, the relative flux reduction decreased rapidly to 0.02 in the 30min, as the concentration polarization and gel layer formation were increased. and then the sericin concentration rejection ratio was 40%. In ultrafiltration system, the permeate flux decreased with time and concentration, and increased with the operating pressure and flow rate. Optimal condition in PS100 membrane system for sericin concentration was operating pressure 1.464kgf/$cm^24, operating flow rate $7\ell/min at\; 40^{\circ}C$. At that time, sericin concentration rejection ratio was 83% respectably. The sericin solution was concentrated from 0.1wt% solution to 0.2 wt % solution during about 2 hrs by the UF filteration membrane system.

A single layer ultrafiltration(UF) ceramic membrane was prepared using boehmite sol. Boehmite was synthesized using a typical sol-gel process with optimization of the viscosity, pH, molar ratio of aluminum isopropoxide(AIP) and $HNO_3$. Boehmite sol was coated on a microfiltration(MF) support using the dip-coating method. MF support was dipped into the boehmite sol with a withdrawal speed of 5 mm/s and was maintained for 10 s in the boehmite sol, resulting in a uniform UF membrane layer of $10{\mu}m$ thickness. The porosity of the obtained membrane was measured and found to be 41.2%; the pore size was found to range from 80~100 nm, corresponding to the pore size of the UF membrane. The flux of the obtained membrane was initially 540 $L/m^2h$ and approximately 85% of the initial flux was recovered using a periodic back-flushing process.
