Coagulation can be used for pretreatment of NF membrane filtration. Foulants such as organic matter and particulate can be removed effectively with the process while high flux recovery is maintained. Recently various types of polyaluminium coagulants including polyaluminium chloride(PAC) are commercially available for water treatment. This study examines effects of polymeric Al and hydrolysis products of PAC on nanofiltration membrane performance. Dominant hydrolysis products were polymeric Al, $Al(OH)_3$, and ${Al(OH)_4}^{-1}$ at acidic, neutral, and alkaline pH conditions, respectively. Under acidic pH condition, flux decline was increased with increasing PAC concentrations, possibly due to polymeric Al adsorption on membrane pore and/or surfaces. For neutral and alkaline pH conditions, little flux decline was observed with increasing PAC concentrations except the highest ${Al(OH)_4}^{-1}$ concentration, with which rapid flux decline was shown. Removal of ionic matters was also varied with pH conditions in this study. Especially, conductivity removal was substantially low and $Ca^{2+}$ concentration in the permeate was quite high at neutral pH condition.

Inspired by the specific amino acid sequence Asn-Pro-Ala (NPA) of water channel aquaporins (AQPs), we fabricated polyamide (PA) nanofiltration (NF) membranes by introducing reduced glutathione (GSH) in interfacial polymerization (IP) method. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (ATR-FTIR), X-ray photoelectron spectrometry (XPS), scanning electron microscope (SEM), atomic force microscopy (AFM), zeta potential and static water contact angle measurement were employed to characterize the chemical composition, morphology, electronegativity and hydrophilicity of the NF membranes. The water flux of GSH/PIP-TMC NF membrane reached $32.00L\;m^{-2}h^{-1}$ at 0.2 MPa, which was approximately twice than that of pristine PIP-TMC NF membrane when the ratio of GHS to piperazidine (PIP) was 40% during IP process. More water channels were built as GSH was embedded into PA layer. The fabricated NF membranes also took on potent rejection for dyes and $Na_2SO_4$. This study presents a simple and facile method to simulate water channels-based biological materials which may find potential application in water treatment.

In industrial production, the development of traditional polyamide nanofiltration (NF) membrane was limited due to its poor oxidation resistance, complex preparation process and high cost. In this study, a composite NF membrane with high flux, high separation performance, high oxidation resistance and simple process preparation was prepared by the method of dilute solution dip coating. And the sulfonated polysulfone was used for dip coating. The results indicated that the concentration of glycerin, the pore size of the based membrane, the composition of the coating solution, and the post-treatment process had important effects on the structure and performance of the composite NF membrane. The composite NF membrane prepared without glycerol protecting based membrane had a low flux, when the concentration of glycerin increased from 5% to 15%, the pure water flux of the composite NF membrane increased from 46.4 LMH to 108.2 LMH, and the salt rejection rate did not change much. By optimizing the coating system, the rejection rate of Na₂SO₄ and PEG1000 was higher than 90%, the pure water flux was higher than 40 LMH (60psi), and it can withstand 20,000 ppm.h NaClO solution cleaning. When the post treatment processes was adjusted, the salt rejection rate of NaCl solution (250 ppm) reached 45.5%, and the flux reached 62.2 LMH.

자색고구마 색소추출액을 막분리법과 진공농축법을 사용하여 농축하였다. 초기 anthocyanin함량이 1.6 g/L인 색소추출액을 막분리법을 이용하여 5시간 동안 연속 농축시켜 부피의 비로 25배 농축시켰으며, 이 때 조색소의 함량은 10.7 g/L이었다. 농축이 진행되는 동안 고형분의 농도는 계속 증가하였으며, frux는 계속 감소하였다. 막분리에 의한 색소 추출액의 농축과정 중 degradation index (DI)의 변화는 미미하였는데, 이는 이 농축방법이 색소의 변색에 아무 영향을 미치지 않음을 의미한다. 비교실험으로서 진공농축법을 사용하여 부피의 비가 5배로 농축될 때까지 농축하였다. DI값은 $40^{\circ}C$보다 $60^{\circ}C$에서 더 증가하는 경향을 나타냈다. 농축색소액의 total color difference값은 막분리법을 사용하는 경우 그 변화가 미미하였으며, 진공농축법을 사용했을 때에는 $40^{\circ}C$보다 $60^{\circ}C$농축에서 더 증가하였다. 이러한 사실들을 자색고구마색소 추출액을 농축시키는데 낮은 온도의 진공농축법이 효과적이며 ethanol및 citric acid의 재사용 등 경제적인 면으로는 막분리법이 효율적인 방법임을 입증한다.

A linear quantitative structure-property relationship (QSPR) model is presented for the prediction of rejection in permeation through membrane. The model was produced by using the multiple linear regression (MLR) technique on the database consisting of retention data of 25 pesticides in 4 different membrane separation experiments. Among the 3224 different physicochemical, topological and structural descriptors that were considered as inputs to the model only 50 were selected using several criteria of elimination. The physical meaning of chosen descriptor is discussed in detail. The accuracy of the proposed MLR models is illustrated using the following evaluation techniques: leave-one-out cross validation procedure, leave-many-out cross validation procedure and Y-randomization.

분리막공정을 폐수처리에 적용시 적용되는 각 폐수의 특성과 조건에 따라 공정의 안정성 및 경제성에 많은 영향을 받게 된다. 특히 폐수에 대한 농축도는 공정의 경제성과 밀접한 관계를 갖고 있는 중요한 인자이다. 폐수중에 염류 및 난분해성 유기물의 농도가 높을 경우 최종 처리수의 양을 줄이지 않으면 추가로 농축수에 대한 처리비용이 증가하기 때문에 폐수에 대한 분리막의 농축특성을 실험을 통하여 충분히 고려하여야 한다. 난분해성 폐수의 일종인 염료폐수는 고농도의 유기물과 높은 염류를 함유하고 있어 분리막공정을 이용하여 처리시 농축도의 증가와 함께 폐수의 특성변화로 막의 성질을 변화시킬 수도 있다. 더불어 과포화된 무기이온성분에 의하여 막표면에 scale을 유발시킬 수 있으므로 농축에 따른 적절한 무기이온성분의 제거는 농축도를 높이는 중요한 인자라고 볼 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 2가 이온에 대한 선택적 배제가 가능한 nanfiltration계열의 분리막을 이용하여 염료폐수를 대상으로 처리효율, cold crystallization공정을 응용한 농축실험 및 세척효과에 관하여 연구하였다.

The nanofiltration (NF) membranes based on poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA) and sodium alginate (SA) were prespared. Homogeneous PVA/SA blend membranes were prepared by casting a PVA/SA (95/5 in wi%) mixture solution on an acryl plate followed by drying at a room temperature and by cros-slinking with glutaraldehyde (GA) for 20 minutes PVA/SA blend composite membranes were also prepared by coating a PVA/SA (95/5 in wi%) mixture solution on microporous polysulfone(PSF) supports. The PVA/SA active layer of the composite membrane was crosslinked at room temperature by using an membranes were characterized with a scanning electron microscopy (SEM) a fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and permeation tests. The permeation properties of the composite membrane were as follows: 1.3{{{{ {m }^{2 } }}}}/{{{{ {m }^{2 } }}}}day of flux and >95% of rejection at 200 psi for a 1000 ppm PEG600 solution.

1. INTRODUCTION : With good physical and chemical properties as a membrane material, poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA) has been widely used for the preparation of several kinds of membranes for different applications. Considering such good physical chemical properties, some people have tried to use it for the formation of reverse osmosis (RO) membranes with a good chemical stability as well as high flux and high rejection rate. However, unfortunately, the performance of the RO membranes based on PVA has not been satisfactory yet. The PVA RO membranes thermally crosslinked have shown very low flux and relatively low salt rejection. In this experiment, ionic polymers such as sodium alginate and chitosan were used together with PVA to increase the nanofiltration performance of the PVA membranes.
