There has been a growing interest in NF membrane for drinking water treatment, because it can remove simultaneously both hardness and hazardous micro pollutants such as pesticides and THM precursors. In this work, a hollow fiber NF membrane known as a composite membrane was employed for the rejection properties of both hydrophilic solutes and micro organic pollutants, where the former was used to evaluate the molecular sieving effect of this membrane and the latter was employed for the investigation of solute-membrane interaction as hydrophobic materials. This membrane effectively rejected the hydrophilic solutes and the permeation of them was mainly controlled by the molecular sieving effects such as molecular weight and molecular width. In the case of all micro organic pollutants, the rejections were varied from 42.2% for Simazine to 91.6% for Malathion, and the parameters related to the steric hindrance could significantly play an important role in the rejection. In the batch type adsorption experiments, all micro organic pollutants were entrapped mildly on the membrane in spite of lower degree compared with that of aromatic compounds, and they were correlated with log K.

Chitosan is a dietary fiber because of a linear polysaccharide composed of $\beta-(1{\rightarrow}4)$-linked 2-amino-2-deoxy-D-glucopyranose. In this study, control release system of vitamin C has been estimated in chitosan molecular network as a vitamin C carrier of controlled release. The amount of released vitamin C were decreased in higher amount of chitosan concentration. Especially, vitamin C were slowly released from chitosan solution in dialysis membrane when compared with vitamin C solution alone in dialysis membrane. These result assumed that chitosan driving force is dependent on chitosan molecular weight and cationic property of amino group with anionic property of vitamin C.

Membrane distillation process was used for desalination of hot (333 K) geothermal water, which was applied in the plant producing heating water. The investigated water contained 120 g salts/$dm^3$, mainly NaCl. The mineral composition was studied using an ion chromatography method. The obtained rejection of solutes was closed to 100%, but the small amounts of $NH_3$ also diffused through the membrane together with water vapour. However, the composition of obtained distillate allowed to use it as a makeup water in the heating water system. The geothermal water under study was concentrated from 120 to 286 g NaCl/$dm^3$. This increase in the solution concentration caused the permeate flux decline by a 10-20%. The geothermal water contained sulphates, which was subjected to two-fold concentration to achieve the concentration 2.4-2.6 g $SO{_4}{^{2-}}/dm^3$ and the sulphates then crystallized in the form of calcium sulphate. As a results, an intensive membranes scaling and the permeate flux decline was observed. The XRD analysis indicated that beside the gypsum also the NaCl crystallites were deposited on the membrane surfaces. The fresh geothermal water dissolved the mixed $CaSO_4$ and NaCl deposit from the membrane surface. This property can be utilized for self-cleaning of MD modules. Using a batch feeding of MD installation, the concentration of geothermal water was carried out over 800 h, without significant performance losses.

The efficiency and life time of the Proton Exchange Membrane fuel cell (PEMFC) system is critically affected by incoming gas with humidity which should be maintained properly at normal operating conditions. Typically, incoming gas of automotive fuel cell is humidified by external humidifier but the characteristics of device is rarely reported. In this study, characteristics of water transfer in the membrane humidifiers have been experimentally investigated for flow rates of gas and for different flow arrangement under steady state condition. At first, capability of mass transfer through the membrane is examined at constant temperature. Then, the temperature distribution effect on the capability of mass transfer is tested over various inlet conditions. In summary, this research presents the mass transfer capability of hydrophilic membrane over various operating conditions.

Zinc and lead pollution are public environmental issues that have attracted lots of attention for a long time. Landfill leachate contains heavy metals, such as Zn(II) and Pb(II), which are usually related to the pollution of groundwater, especially in developing countries. Bentonite has been proven to be effective in enhancing the membrane property of clay, by which landfill liners can have better barrier performance towards the migration of contaminants. In this study, 5% sodium bentonite amended with locally available Fukakusa clay was utilized to evaluate the membrane behavior towards the heavy metals zinc and lead. The chemico-osmotic efficiency coefficient, ${\omega}$, was obtained through Zn(II) and Pb(II) solutions with different concentrations of 0.5, 1, 5, 10, and 50 mM. According to the results, ${\omega}$ continually decreased as the Zn(II) and Pb(II) concentrations increased, which is consistent with the Gouy-Chapman theory. Compared to normal inorganic ions, the membrane behavior towards heavy metal ions was lower. The migration of heavy metal ions was not observed based on experimental results, which can be attributed to the adsorption or ion exchange reaction. The mechanisms of the membrane performance change were discussed with the assistance of XRD patterns, free swelling results, XRF results, and SEM images.

상전환 방법으로 제조된 음이온 성 Poly(his[4-(3-aminophenoxy)phenyl]sulfone pyromellite)imide(ACPI) 한외여과막의 순수 투과유속과 용질 배재도 측정치로 투과성능을 연구하였다. ACPI 한외여과막의 투과성능은 캐스팅 용액의 조성과 막 제조 및 측정조건에 영향을 받았다. Bovine serum albumin (BSA) 용액을 pH 2.5-9.0 상태에서 ACPI 한외여과 막의 상대투과유속과 membrane filtration index (MFI) 측정한 결과 BSA의 등전점에서 멀어 질수록 상대투과유속은 증가하고 막 오염정도를 나타내는 MFI는 감소하였다. 또한, 친수성인 ACPI 한외여과막의 이온교환용량(IEC)이 증가할수록 상대투과유속은 증가하고, MFI는 감소하였다.

바나듐 레독스-흐름 전지 (V-RFB)용 격막으로 사용하기 위해 폴리설폰(psf)에 폴리페닐렌설파이드설폰(PPSS)을 블록 공중합 시킨 폴리머와 여기에 TPA (tungstophosphoric acid)를 첨가하여 양이온교환막을 제작하였다. 제작한 막은 1M $H_2SO_4$용액을 사용하여 막 저항을 평가하였다. 제작한 Psf-PPSS와 Psf-TPA-PPSS 양이온교환막의 막 저항은 약 $0.94{\Omega}{\cdot}cm^2$를 나타냈다. 제작한 양이온교환막과 Nafion117을 격막으로 사용하여 V-RFB의 전기화학적 특성을 평가하였다. 4 A의 전류에서 측정한 V-RFB의 충 방전 셀 저항은 막의 종류에 따라 Nafion117 < Psf-TPA-PPSS < Psf-PPSS 의 순서로 값이 낮았다. 막을 5가 바나듐 수용액에 침적하여 침적시간 변화에 따른 V-RFB의 총 방전 셀 저항을 측정함으로써 내구성을 평가하였다. 내구성은 제작한 Psf-PPSS 막이 가장 우수하였으며, Nafion117막과 제작한 Psf-TPA-PPSS막이 서로 동등하였다.

Membrane strip 면역 크로마토그래피 방법을 이용하여 정량분석을 수행하기 위해 스크린프린팅 기술에 의해 제작된 membrane 전극 상에 항체를 고정화하였고 신호발생물질로써 전도성고분자인 polyaniline이 결합된 colloidal gold를 사용하였다. 이때 사용이 적합한 전도성 고분자는 수용액에 대해 용해도가 높아야 하고 또한 면역반응 최적조건인 중성 pH에서 전기전도도를 유지할 수 있어야 한다. 이를 위해 기존의 polyaniline을 $LiPF_6$로 doping 하거나 새로운 수용성 고분자인 LEB-SPAN을 사용하여 전기전도도 측정용 면역 gold를 합성하였다.

The electrochemical properties of novel metal powders were investigated for the electrode materias of polymer electrolyte memebrane electrolysis. Two types of Pt black and $IrO_2$ powder electrodes were hot-pressed on the polymer electrolyte membrane to form membrane electrode assembly. The galvanodynamic polarization methode was used to characterize the electrochemical properties of both electrodes. From the experimental results, we concluded that the $IrO_2$ powder electrode exhibits better electrochemical performance than Pt black as cathode material for the electrolysis.
