  • A chloroform membrane system containing a given mixture of benzylaza-12-crown-4 and oleic acid is introduced for the selective and efficient transport of $Pb^{2+}$ ion. The transport was capable of moving metal ions ‘up-hill’. In the presence of ${S_2O_3}^{2-}$ion as a suitable metal ion acceptor in the receiving phase, the amount of lead ion transport across the liquid membrane after 150 minutes is (95.0 ${\pm}$ 1.7)%. The selectivity and efficiency of lead transport from aqueous solution containing $Tl^+,\;Ag^+,\;Mg^{2+},\;Ca^{2+},\;Co^{2+},$ $Ni^{2+},\;Cu^{2+},\;Zn^{2+},\;Hg^{2+}$ and $Cd^{2+}$were investigated. In the presence of thiosulfate as a suitable masking agent in the source phase, the interfering effects of $Ag^+\;and\;Cu^{2+}$ were diminished drastically.

  • Single cell of PEMFC (polymer electrolyte membrane fuel cell) is composed of bipolar plates, gasket, GDL and the MEA. Bipolar plate's function is the collecting electricity, helping oxygen/hydrogen gas diffuse evenly and draining the water and heat. In this work, we have conducted experiments to low contact resistance and improve the performance of a $25cm^2$ single cell by using metal forms. We have following experimental cases: 1) Conventional graphite serpentine channel bipolar plate; 2) Channel-less bipolar plate with nickel(Ni) based metal foam which coated by various materials. We focused the difference in contact resistance and performance of the single cell with metal foam depending on various coating materials. The experimental results show the similar performance of single cells between with serpentine channel bipolar plates and with channel-less bipolar plate using metal foams. In addition, single cell with metal foam shows potential to higher performance than conventional channel.

  • The ultrafiltration(UF) and reverse osmosis(RO) tests for a model metal plating wastewater prepared with zinc sulfate, showed the zinc ion rejection coefficient of over 99% and the permeate flux of $1.49 {\times} 10^{-3}cm/sec$ at pH = 8.3. The effect of cyanide on the zinc removal was investigated. When the amount of cyanide addition was same the zinc content, the zinc was removed over 99% and the cyanide was excluded about 93%. The addition of the surfactants such a LAS-Na and EDTA-Na was found to reduce the permeate flux down to $0.76 {\times} 10^{-3}cm/sec$ at the RO membrane.

  • Growing demand on clean energy to control environmental pollution is growing rapidly. Rechargeable battery such as lithium ion battery is excellent source of clean energy but there is rapid depletion of lithium metal due to high demand and supply mismatch. Recovery of the precious metal from the battery waste is one of the possible solution along with the environmental pollution control. Membrane based separation method is highly successful commercial process available to recover lithium from the waste. This work will cover various methods reported recently and will be compiled in the form of a review.

  • In order to decrease the high costs of membrane process, we have tried to develop two alternatives to membrane; a cartridge type filter and a metal membrane were tested for the high permeation flux with low cost and low energy. This research mainly focused on three points; 1) operation with high permeation flux by using of a cartridge type filter and a metal membrane, 2) removals of the filterable organic materials (FOC) by pretreatments for the membrane fouling control, and 3) advanced wastewater treatment by SMBR process with intermittent aeration and high MLSS. An Intermittently aerated membrane bioreactor using a submerged micro filter (cartridge type) was applied in laboratory scale for the advanced wastewater treatment. To minimize membrane fouling, intermittent aeration was applied inside of the filter with $3.0kg_f/cm^2$. The experiments was conducted for 6 months with three different HRTs (8, 10, 12 hr) and high MLSS of 6,000 and 10,000mg/L. The filtration process could be operated up to 50 days with permeation flux of 500LMH. Regardless of the operating conditions, more than 95% of COD, BOD and SS were removed. Fast and complete nitrification was accomplished, and denitrification was appeared to be the rate-limiting step. More than 75% T-N could be removed due to the endogenous denitrification. T-P removal efficiency was increased to 80% under the condition of MLSS 10,000mg/L.

  • Porous nickel membrane far high precision gas filter was prepared by in-situ reduced/sintered process of NiO with an addition of polymer(PMMA; polymethyl methacrylate). It showed that the porosity of Ni membrane was approximately 52%. It is similar to metal membrane which prepared using metal fiber as raw materials. The average pore diameter and porosity of Ni membrane increased as content of added polymer and decreased as elevating reduced/sintered temperature from $800^{\circ}C$ to $1000^{\circ}C$. Increase of porosity at $800^{\circ}C$ was associated with surface diffusion mechanism that leads to initial sintering, while decrease of porosity at $1000^{\circ}C$ was associated with lattice diffusion and grain boundary diffusion.
