Proton Exchange Membrane Fuel Cell (PEMFC) is an attractive candidate for residential power generator due to fast start-up and stop, high efficiency, low emission, and high power density. In this study, we employ short module stack to understand the performance of the unit cell of the stack in terms of operating temperatures. To simulate the practical fuel cell stack of residential power generator, the structure and active area of the short module stack is kept the same as that of the practical fuel cell. The results shows that the electric potential of short module stack is different from the number of cells times the potential of unit cell because of cell-to-cell variation.

A pore concensation-based separation technique was studied experimentally using toluene and xylene in a nitrogen stream. The removal rate of toluene and xylene on a microporous ceramic membrane was enhanced by increasing the partial pressure difference across the membrane, but the selectivity was reduced with increasing flux of nitrogen. This was found both in vacuum and pressure modes of operation. The experimental results from this study suggest that the pores mear the inlet portion of the module were filled with the organic solvent while the pores near the exit section of the module were slightly opened as the solvent concentration was depleted along the module. In the case of xylene, the rate of N$_{2}$ permeation was reduced considerably relative to toluene, resulting in a much higher separation gactor. Condensibility of xylene appeared to be higher than that of toluene, the potential for pore condensation-based separation of xylene was also found to be higher than that for toluene.

혐기-호기의 생물반응조 공정과 막분리 공정을 조합한 막-생물반응조 공정을 이용하여 염색폐수 중의 난분해성 물질들을 제거하였다. 염색폐수 원수를 직접 막분리공정에 적용한 결과 심각한 fouling을 초래하였다. 반면 생물반응조로 1차 처리한 후 막분리공정에 적용한 경우 생물반응조가 막의 오염원을 상당부분 제거하여 fouling현상이 현저리 감소하였으며, 막의 수명도 연장시킬 수 있었다. 염색폐수의 처리효율 및 fouling현상은 막의 기공 크기나 구조보다는 막의 재질에 더욱 의존함을 확인하였다. 중공사막 module의 사용 방법 및 중공사막 내부의 유속에 따라서 제거효율 및 투과유량이 변화하였다. 생물반응조나 막분리 단독공정보다 두공정을 조합한 공정이 보다 효과적으로 염색폐수 처리능력을 보였다.

In this study, the effects of two pre-treatment processes were observed prior to membrane filtration: pre-coagulation and pre-ozonation. To compare the effect of two above-mentioned pre-treatments, we adopted the four schemes: first one is direct membrane filtration of river surface water, second one is membrane filtration after pre-coagulation, third one is membrane filtration after pre-ozonation and fourth one is membrane filtration after pre-coagulation and pre-ozonation. There are two exceptional characteristics in applied processes. One is the usage of the MF membrane which has high ozone resisting characteristic. Therefore, ozone resides in membrane module during filtration. The other is adoption of Jet Mixed Separator (JMS) as coagulation-sedimentation process. The change in transmembrane pressure and permeate water quality were also examined. As a result, considering the filtration performance efficiency and permeate water quality, the process composed of filtration with combination of both pre-coagulation and pre-ozonation was proved most effective. The improved efficiency was due to the reduction of loading rate of fouling inducing materials to membrane module by coagulation process as well as variable reactions, such as degradation, particle destabilization and coagulation, occurred by residual ozone in membrane module. The additional effect of pre-coagulation before pre-ozonation is suppression of AOC, one of the by-products induced by ozonation. Therefore, combination of pre-coagulation and pre-ozonation is the effective process to overcome the major de-merit of ozonation i.e. by-products formation.

본 연구에서는 평판형 모듈 설계의 최적화를 목적으로 원액 흐름 조건에 따른 모듈내 원액 온도 및 유속 분포를 예측할 수 있는 모델식을 확립하고 전산모사(simulation)를 통해 흐름 조건들이 온도 분포에 끼치는 영향들을 조사하였으며 이들의 결과를 모듈설계에 반영하고자 하였다. 확립된 모델식의 타당성을 확인하기 위하여 최소한의 실험을 행하여 실험치와 모델치를 비교하였다. 또한 개발된 새로운 구조를 지니는 평판형 막모듈에 상용화된 막과 국내에서 개발된 막을 장착하여 모듈 내에서의 온도감소 현상을 실험적으로 비교하였다.

The permeation characteristics of the wastewater containing Si fine particles were examined by ultrafiltration using the polyolefin tubular membrane module. Flux with time was due to the growth of Si cake deposited on the membrane surface and the pore plugging by fine particles. The rate of flux decline in the initial stage increased with the trans-membrane pressure. The pore blocking resistance was the dominant resistance at the initial period of filtration and the cake resistance began to dominate with the initial pore blocking resistance. The larger pores compared with the fine particles, the more the membrane pores could be blocked by the fine particles. Before and after treatment, the distribution of particle size was shifted toward to the left. Then, the average size of fine particles in the permeate was 20 nm.

Pressure retarded osmosis(PRO) has attracted much attention as potential technology to reduce the overall energy consumption for reverse osmosis(RO) desalination. The RO/PRO hybrid process is considered as the most logical next step for future desalination. The PRO process aims to harness the osmotic energy difference of two aqueous solutions separated by a semipermeable membrane. By using the concentrated water(RO brine) discharged from existing RO plants, the PRO process can effectively exploit a greater salinity gradient to reduce the energy cost of processing concentrated water. However, in order to use RO brine as the draw solution, PRO membrane must have high water flux and enough mechanical strength to withstand the high operational pressure. This study investigates the development of a thin film composite PRO membrane and spiral wound module for high power density. Also, the influence of membrane backing layer on the overall power density was studied using the characteristic factors of PRO membranes. Finally, the performance test of an 8-inch spiral wound module was carried out under various operating conditions(i.e. hydraulic pressure, flow rate, temperature). As the flow rate and temperature increased under the same hydraulic pressure, the PRO performance increased due to the growth of water permeability coefficient and osmotic pressure. For a high performance PRO system, in order to optimize the operating conditions, it is highly recommended that the flow pressure be minimized while the flow rate is maintained at a high level.

실크 생산공정 중 발생하는 부산물인 세리신을 회수하기 위하여 제조된 폴리에테르술폰 중공사 한외여과 모듈을 운전하였다. 부산물에 함유되어 있는 비누를 염화칼슘을 이용하여 침진시킨 후 침전된 비누가 함유된 세리신 용액의 침지형 및 가압형 모듈 운전 시 막오염 거동을 살펴보았다. 또한 가압형 모듈 운전 시 비누와 단백질이 막오염에 미치는 영향을 조사하였다. 비누를 제거함으로써 막오염이 줄어드는 경향을 보였다. 이로부터 비누가 침전될 때와 침전되기 전에 단백질 상호간에 영향을 끼치며 분리막에도 영향을 미침을 보여주고 있다.
