In recent years, an increasing interest in membrane technology has been observed in chemical and environmental industry. Membrane technology has advantages of low cost, energy saving and environmental clean technology comparing to conventional separation processes. Pervaporation is one of new advanced membrane technology applied for separation of azeotropic mixtures, aqueous organic mixtures, organic solvent and petrochemical mixtures. Sodium alginate composite membranes were prepared for the enhancement of long-term stability of pervaporation performance of water-ethanol mixture using pervaporation. Sodium alginate membranes were crosslinked with CaCl$_2$ and coated with polyelectrolyte chitosan to protect washing out of calcium ions from the polymer. The surface structures of PAN and hydrolysed PAN membrane were confirmed by ATR Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR). A field emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM; Jeol 6340F) operated at 15 kV. Concentration profiles for Ca in the membrane surface and membrane cross-section were taken by an energy dispersive X-ray (EDX) analyser (Jeol) attached to the field emission scanning electron microscopy (Jeol 6340F). Pervaporation experiments were done with several operation run times to investigate long-term stability of the membranes.

For twelve solvent thinners, evaporation rates of components were investigated and models to estimate the actual concentration have been evaluated. Also, the current ACGIH TLVs (Threshold Limit Values) for the concentration of organic mixtures have been adjusted. The results of this study are summarized as follows : 1. Airborne concentrations of solvent thinner components were related to their respective vapor pressure (r=0.96). On the other hand, there was no significant relation between the concentrations in the air of the thinner compounds and the original amount in liquid form. 2. Airborne concentrations of each chemical were estimated by temperature at $8.5{\pm}1$, $16.7{\pm}1$ and $31.5{\pm}2^{\circ}C$ with an air velocity of 1.5 m/s. The concentrations were increased by increasing temperature (p<0.05). The percentage of concentrations were proportionate to their respective percentage of vapor pressure. Among the chemicals studied, n-butyl acetate, n-butyl alcohol, m-xylene, p-xylene and o-xylene showed a clear relationship to temperature. 3. Airborne concentration of each chemical was estimated by air velocity at 0.05, 1.50 and 2.50 m/s, with a constant temperature at $17{\pm}2^{\circ}C$. The concentrations were increased by increasing air velocity (p<0.05). The percentage of concentrations were proportionate to their respective percentage of vapor pressure. Among the chemicals studied, n-butyl alcohol, m-xylene and p-xylene showed a clear relationship to velocity. 4. In estimating the concentrations of solvent thinners by temperature and air velocity, ACGIH TLVs for mixtures tended to be larger than the values obtained by ACGIH exposure index. It shows that ACGIH TLVs for mixtures are not adequate for evaluating the airborne concentration of thinners and other organic mixtures. 5. The evaporation rate of the thinners were compared to the theoretical equations of Hummel, Braun and Mackay. The Hummel and Braun methods were close to exposure index but Makay's showed an underestimated value. In order to see the accuracy of each three models, the SSE (Error Sum of Squares) calculated for Hummel's was 1.73, being the closest to the actual values. 6. Present ACGIH TLVs for mixtures are not appropriate evaluate industrial environments. In this study, a correction of TLVs using vapor pressure of respective components was suggested. In order to evaluate the corrected TLVs a paired t-test was performed. There was no significant difference between the exposure index and the concentration over suggested TLVs (p>0.05). Thus, this corrected TLVs seem appropriate in order to evaluate actual industrial workplaces organic chemical concentration in the air.

본 연구는 결합 정지상 컬럼을 이용한 역상 액체 크로마토그래피에서 치환기에 따른 시료의 용리거동을 알아 보기 위한 일련의 연구로서 비교적 극성인 치환체에서 비극성인 치환체까지 18종의 벤젠 일치환체를 대상으로 $\mu$-Bondapak $C_{18} 컬럼 및 $\mu$-Bondapak phenyl컬럼상에서 메탄올-물, 아세토니트릴-물, 및 THF-물의 혼합용액을 이동상으로 하여 시료의 용리거동을 알아 보았다. 극성인 치환기를 갖는 치환체들의 용량인자(k')는 벤젠에 k'값보다 적었으며, 반대로 비극성인 치환체들의 k'값은 벤젠보다 컸다. 이동상중의 유기용매의 농도가 감소함에 따라 모든 벤젠 일치환체들의 용량 인자값은 증가하였다. 혼합물의 분리의 가능성을 예측하고 치환체들의 용리거동을 설명하기 위하여 컬럼의 종류 및 이동상의 종류에 따라 달라지는 각 치환체들의 머무름의 변화를 벤젠을 기준으로 하여 용량인자의 절대치의 차(${\Delta}k$')로 도식화하였다. 두 컬럼과 세가지 용매시스템에서 치환체들의 용량인자를 상호 비교하므로써 선택성이 큰 용매시스템을 조사하였다.

Competitive solvent extraction of the mixure of alkali metal and alkaline earth cation from water into organic solvent containing the crown ether carboxylic acid and anlogous crown ether phosphonic acid was investigated as follows. The lipophilic group is found to strongly influence to the selective extraction in the mixed systems from only alkali metal cation for sym-(n-decyldibenzo)-16-crown-5-oxyacetic acid $\underline{1}$ to mostly alkaline earth metal cation for sym-bis[4(5)-tert-butylbenzo]-16-crown-5-oxyacetic acid $\underline{3}$. Monoethyl sym-(n-decyldibenzo)-16-crown-5-oxymethylphosphonic acid $\underline{2}$. and monoethyl-sym- bis]4(5)-tert-butylbenzo]-16-crown-5-oxymethylphosphonic acid $\underline{4}$ showed good selectivity for $Na^+$ over $Mg^{2+}$, the second extracted ion. Structural variation in the crown ether phosphonic acid somewhat was influenced to the extraction selectivity in the mixed systems. when variation of the ionized group is influenced in the mixed systems, the selectivity of $Na^+$ as the second extracted ion was much better crown ether carboxylic acid $\underline{1}$ than crown ether phosphonic acid $\underline{2}$, while the efficiency of $Na^+$ extraction was better $\underline{2}$ (83% total loading) than $\underline{1}$ (32%).

In this study, gemcitabine-loaded methoxy poly(ethylene glycol)-b-poly(L-lactide) (MPEG-PLLA) microparticles with different PEG block lengths were prepared by a W/O/W double emulsion technique. The present study focuses on the investigation of the influence of various preparative parameters such as the ratio of internal water phase and oil phase, polymer concentration, solvent composition of organic phase and salt concentration of external water phase on the morphology and encapsulation efficiency of the microparticles. The microparticles fabricated at high volume ratios of internal water phase to oil phase and at high polymer concentrations showed a relatively high encapsulation efficiency and low porosity. When a dichloromethane/ethyl acetate mixture was used as solvent, both the encapsulation efficiency and drug loading of the microparticles decreased as the level of ethyl acetate increased. The addition of a salt (NaCl) to the external water phase significantly improved the encapsulation efficiency up to 40%, and the microparticles became more spherical with their size and porosity decreased.

Tributyl phyosphate(TBP) polypropylene glycol 4000(PPG-4000) and the mixture of two compounds were examined as a liquid membrane in a supported liquid membrane (SLM) to separate phenol from aqueous solution.The feed concentration of phenol was varied in a broad range from 500 mg/L to 5000 mg/L and different types of liquid membrane were prepared to elucidate their effects on separation of phenol. It was found that the modified PPG 4000 with TBP and toluene diisocyanate(TDI) might be used as a proper liquid membrane because the mass transfer rate examined with this membrane was higher than that through methyl isobutyl ketone (MIBK) which has been used as a conventional solvent in a solvent extraction process. The breakthrough pressure of the SLM is defined to be the pressure difference across the membrane at which the supported liquid membrane is not kept in the pores any more. it indicates how the SLM is stable., It was found that the breakthrough pressure of the modified PPG-4000 was much higher than those of typical organic solvents.

전기흡착용 전극의 비표면적을 증가시키기 위하여 상전이법을 이용한 다공성 탄소전극을 제조하였다. 활성탄소분말, polyvinylidene fluoride (PVdF)를 유기용매인 N-methyl-2-pyrrolidone (NMP)과 혼합한 전극슬러리를 전도성 흑연박막 위에 캐스팅한 후 비용매인 증류수에 침지시켜 상전이를 통해 다공성 탄소전극을 제조하였다. 제조된 전극에 대하여 SEM, porosimetry, cyclic voltammetry 분석을 통해 전극의 물리적, 전기화학적 특성을 분석하였다. SEM 측정 결과 다양한 크기의 미세한 기공이 전극 표면에 균일하게 형성된 것을 확인할 수 있었다. NMP 함량을 변화시켜 제조한 전극들의 평균 기공크기를 측정한 결과 64.2~82.4 nm 범위의 기공을 갖는 것으로 나타났으며 NMP 함량이 증가할수록 기공의 크기도 증가하는 것을 알 수 있었다. 또한 탄소전극에 대한 cyclic voltammogram을 측정한 결과 전형적인 전기이중층에서의 흡착 및 탈착 특성을 보였다. 전극의 축전용량은 NMP의 함량에 따라 $3.88{\sim}5.87F/cm^2$ 범위의 값을 나타냈으며 NMP의 함량이 감소할수록 축전용량이 증가하는 것으로 나타났다. 이상의 연구결과로부터 상전이 방법으로 다공성 탄소전극을 제조할 때 유기용매의 함량은 전극의 기공 크기를 제어할 수 있는 중요한 인자이며 이를 통해 전극의 비표면적을 향상시킬 수 있음을 확인할 수 있었다.

Platinum group metals (pgm) are useful to many industries such as chemical, dental and medical, petroleum, refining, electrical and electronic, and automotive. Researchers at the South Dakota School of Mines and Technology and PGM Recovery Ltd. have developed jointly an environmentally sound and metallurgically efficient process for extracting these metals from secondary sources. Once these metals have been dissolved in the leach liquor, the individual metals mainly platinum, palladium, and rhodium, should be separated in order to recover the individual metals with high purity. During this investigation, solvent extraction has been chosen as the method used to achieve the separation and extraction of platinum, palladium, and rhodium from the leach liquor. There were three solutions used throughout this procedure: 1) Synthetic solution (200 ppm Pt 80 ppm Pd 20 ppm Rh; 300 ppm Pt, 180 ppm Pd 50 ppm Rh), and 2) Auto catalyst leach liquors (100 ppm Pt, 30 ppm Pd, 20 ppm Rh). The solvents investigated included Lix 84(2-hydroxy-5-nonylacetonphenone oxime in a mixture with 5-dodecylsalicyloxime), Lix 84-I, ACORGA CLX-50 (diester of pyridine 3,5 dicarboxylic acid), and di-hexyl sulfide. The extraction values achieved using ACORGA CLX-50, Lix 84, and Lix 84-I were respectively Pt (25%, 0% 0%), Pd (100%, 99.8%, 95.3%), and Rh (99.1%, 35.5%, 4.25%). The stripping processes for the Lix 84, and Lix 84-I were proven to be more involved than others. The solutions were required to be simultaneously heated and stirred. The percentages acquired through these processes yielded unsatisfactory results. The stripping procedure for the ACORGA CLX-50 was easier to execute, yet the percentage recovered from this process was also unsatisfactory. Overall the di-hexyl sulfide has proved to be the most successful organic for this procedure. The average percent extracted for palladium was excellent with 99.9% - 100% with very little Platinum and rhodium extracted. The ability of stripping palladium in ammonia solution was also found to be excellent.
