본 연구는 역삼투막의 막오염을 해결하기 위하여 실란-에폭시 층을 형성시킨 다층 표면개질법을 이용하여 역삼투막의 내오염성을 향상시키고자 하였다. Sol-gel법을 이용하여 Octyltrimethoxysilane (OcTES)을 막 표면에 가교를 통해 고분자화 하였으며 n = 8인 OcTES의 알킬기가 자발적인 self-assembly를 통하여 막 표면에 가지구조를 형성시켰다. 그 위에 ethylene glycol diglycidyl ether (EGDE)의 ether기를 ring-opening을 통해 막 표면에 친수성을 부여하여 역삼투막의 내오염성을 향상시키고자 하였다. FE-TEM, AFM을 이용하여 막의 단면 및 표면구조 분석을 하였고 막 표면의 ridge and valley 구조와 OcTES, EGDE의 다층 표면개질로 인한 bridge 구조를 확인하였으며, 거칠기의 증가를 통해 막 표면의 가지가 잘 형성되었음을 확인하였다. XPS를 통하여 막 표면의 화학구조에 대한 관찰과 표면개질이 잘 이루어졌음을 확인하였으며, contact angle 분석을 통해 표면개질막의 표면에 친수성이 부여되었음을 확인하였다. EGDE 표면개질 조건 최적화를 진행한 결과 EGDE 농도는 0.5 wt%, ring-opening 온도는 $70^{\circ}C$가 가장 적합하였고, 내오염성 실험 결과 및 막오염지수(MFI)는 SUL-H10, $PA-OcTES_{1.0}$, $PA-OcTES_{1.0}-EGDE_{0.5}$이 68.7, 60.4, 5.4 ($10E-8hr/mL^2$)로 나타나 다층 표면 개질막의 내오염성이 매우 향상되었음을 확인할 수 있었다.

Reverse osmosis (RO) technology has developed over the past 40 years to control a 44% market share in the world desalting production capacity and an 80% share in the total number of desalination plants installed worldwide. The application of conventional and low-pressure membrane pretreatment processes to seawater RO (SWRO) desalination has undergone accelerated development over the past decade. Reliable pretreatment techniques are required for the successful operation of SWRO processes, since a major issue is membrane fouling associated with particulate matter/colloids, organic/inorganic compounds, and biological growth. While conventional pretreatment processes such as coagulation and granular media filtration have been widely used for SWRO, there has been an increased tendency toward the use of ultrafiltration/microfiltration (UF/MF) instead of conventional treatment techniques. The literature shows that both the conventional and the UF/MF membrane pretreatment processes have different advantages and disadvantages. This review suggests that, depending on the feed water quality conditions, the suitable integration of multiple pretreatment processes may be considered valid since this would utilize the benefits of each separate pretreatment.

In a desalination technology using RO membranes, chemical cleaning makes damage for membrane surface and membrane life be shortened. In this research cleaning technology using direct osmosis (DO) was introduced to apply it under the condition of high pH and high concentration of feed. When the high concentration of feed is injected to the concentrate side after release of operating pressure, then backward flow occurred from treated water toward concentrated for osmotic pressure. This flow reduces fouling on the membrane surface. Namely, flux of DO was monitored under pH 3, 5, 10 and 12 conditions at feed concentrations of NaCl 40,000 mg/L, 120,000 mg/L and 160,000 mg/L. As a result, DO flux in pH 12 increased about 21% than pH 3. DO cleaning was performed under the concentrate NaCl 160,000 mg/L of pH 12 during 20 minutes. Three kinds of synthetic feed water were used as concentrates. They consisted of organic, inorganic and seawater; chemicals of SiO2 (200 mg/L), humic acid (50 mg/L) sodium alginate (50 mg/L) and seawater. As a result, fluxes were recovered to 17% in organic fouling, 15% in inorganic fouling and 14% of seawater fouling after cleaning using DO under the condition of concentrate NaCl 160,000 mg/L of pH 12.

기존의 일반적인 에탄올 제조법으로는 1) ethylene의 가수분해, 2)전분이나 당분의 발효, 3)acetylene으로부터 얻은 acetaldehyde의 환원반응이 있다. 기존의 화석연로에 의존하지 않고 에탄올을 생성하는 방법은 발효에 의한 방법이다. 발효에 의해 생성되는 에탄올의 농도는 batch식 발효에서 13-14%, 고정화 발효방법에서 5-10%정도이다. 이를 고순도의 에탄올로 농축하기 위한 방법으로는 증류법, 투과증발법, 역삼투법등이 있으며 증류를 이용하여 농축하는 경우에는 상당히 큰 열에너지를 필요로 한다.

대체수자원 중 막여과 기술에 대한 관심이 지속적으로 높아지고 있다. 하지만, 이러한 막여과 기술에는 fouling이 발생시 효율저감, flux저감, 소모에너지 증대 등 문제점이 발생한다. 이러한 fouling저감을 위해 막 표면특성분석을 통한 기초연구가 필요하다고 보고 이 연구를 진행하였다. AFM을 이용하여 CML입자와 막의 상호작용을 통해 초기 막오염 경향을 예측할 수 있다.

Many countries, including Korea, suffer from a shortage of freshwater. With increases in population and the quality of life, along with large-scale expansion in industrial and agricultural activities, more freshwater is needed. Available resources, Including ground water, are limited, and desalination presents the opportunity for a new unlimited source of freshwater from the sea. The objectives of this study were to test membrane performance in seawater desalination and to examine the quality of water produced. bath well and sea water were used as water sources. Typically used membrane for seawater desalination and high rejection seawater desalination membrane are maintained at almost same recovery rate and permeate flux, while the conductivity was lower in the operation of typically used seawater membrane. The treated water quality using two types of membranes is satisfied with the Korea drinking water quality standards.

역삼투 및 투과 증발막 분리공정이 nylon 4 blended 막을 사용하여 물-에탄올 계에 대하여 실험적으로 비교되어졌다. 위 두 공저의 이론적 비교를 다루었던 전 논문과 마찬가지로 투과 증발 공정의 분리 효율이 역삼투 공저의 경우 보다 더 좋음을 알 수 있었다. 그러나 투과도 데이타는 막의 결함들로 인하여 엉뚱한 결과를 보였다.

Due to more stringent regulations in drinking water, membrane separation has been playing an increasingly important role. Seawater desalination by reverse osmosis is a typical example and has been used world-wide. Although the existing technology based on coagulation and media filtration is well established and reliable technology, with the advance of industrial and agricultural activities it is difficult for this technology to remove contaminants such as nitrate and synthetic organic chemicals. To meet the drinking water standards and produce higher quality water, several membrane filtration research programs have been initiated which include Japanese MAC21 and New MAC21 projects. In this paper, potable water application of reverse osmosis (RO) and nanofiltration(NF) and their case histories will be explained in more detail.

Pretreatment system of desalination process using seawater reverse osmosis(SWRO) membrane is the most critical step in order to prevent membrane fouling. One of the methods is coagulation-UF membrane process. Coagulation-UF membrane systems have been shown to be very efficient in removing turbidity and non-soluble and colloidal organics contained in the source water for SWRO pretreatment. Ferric salt coagulants are commonly applied in coagulation-UF process for pretreatment of SWRO process. But aluminum salts have not been applied in coagulation-UF pretreatment of SWRO process due to the SWRO membrane fouling by residual aluminum. This study was carried out to see the effect of residual matal salt on SWRO membrane followed by coagulation-UF pretreatment process. Experimental results showed that increased residual aluminum salts by coagulation-UF pretreatment process by using alum lead to the decreased SWRO membrane salt rejection and flux. As the salt rejection and flux of SWRO membrane decreased, the concentration of silica and residual aluminum decreased. However, when adjusting coagulation pH for coagulation-UF pretreatment process, the residual aluminum salt concentration was decreased and SWRO membrane flux was increased.
