The wastewater discharged from a paper plant was filtrated by 3 kinds of tubular carbon ceramic UF and MF membranes with $N_2$-backflushing. The filtration time (FT) was fixed at 8 min or 16 min, and $N_2$-backflushing time (BT) was changed in 0${\~}$60 sec. The optimal condition was discussed in the viewpoints of total permeate volume ($V_T$), dimensionless permeate flux (J/Jo) and resistance of membrane fouling ($R_f$). In the viewpoints of $V_T$, J/Jo and $R_f$, the optimal $N_2$-BT was 40 sec at both FT for M9 (MWCO: 300,000 Daltons) and C005 ($0.05{\mu}m$) membranes. However, for C010 ($0.1{\mu}m$) it was 10 sec at FT=8 min, and 20 sec at FT=16 min in the viewpoints of J/Jo and $R_f$, and 5 sec at both FT in the viewpoints of $V_T$. It means that the short $N_2$-BT could reduce the membrane fouling and recover the permeate flux sufficiently for MF membrane having a large pore size as C010. Average rejection rates of pollutants were higher than $99.0\%$ for turbidity and $22.8{\~}59.6\%$ for $COD_{cr}$, but rejection rates of total dissolved solid (TDS) were lower than $8.9\%$. Therefore, the low turbidity water purified in our system could be reused for paper process.

The production of CO-free hydrogen streams for feeding PEM-Fuel Cells using catalytic zeolite membrane reactors was analysed by means of selective oxidation. Tubular FAU (Na-Y) zeolite membranes, prepared by a secondary growth method and Pt-loaded, were used in a flow-through MR configuration. The catalytic tests were carried out at $200^{\circ}C$ and at different pressures with a simulated dry reformate shifted gas mixture ($H_2$ ca. 60%, CO 1 %, plus $O_2,\;N_2,\;CO_2$). The operative $O_2/CO$ stoichiometric equivalent feed ratio was ${\lambda}= 2$. These catalytic tests, reducing the CO concentration down to $10{\sim}50$ ppm, verified the possibility of MR integration after using a low temperature water-gas shift unit of a fuel processor to convert hydrocarbons into hydrogen-rich gas.

To clarify the exocytotic features in adrenal medullary aminergic cells, the authors observed rat adrenal medulla prepared by the TAGO method with transmission electron microscope. Rat adrenal medulla contains two types of aminergic cells, adrenergic and noradrenergic, as described. They were present as a group. In a single group both adrenergic and noradrenergic cells were present, but the same kind of cells showed the tendency forming small groups. Adrenergic cells were characterized with the granules having relatively electroluscent cores. These granules were relatively uniform in size, and the cores filled the granules with only thin halos. Noradrenergic cells were characterized with the granules of various size and forms. Most of the cores of these granules were generally more electron-dense than those of the adrenergic cells and only partly filled the granules without forming the halos. But, some granules were very similar in the shape and electron density as those of the adrenergic cells. Even empty-looking granules were present. Exocytotic figures with the classical omega figures were observed in both types of aminergic cells, but they were more frequent in adrenergic cells. These figures were mainly present along the plasma membranes toward the capillary. The excreted materials could be identified in the cleft of the omega figures. Apocrine-like secretory patterns but without cytoplasmic rims were identified in noradrenergic cells. Some vesicles, possibly formed from the cytoplsmic tubular systems were released. Some irregular lamellar structures of varying sizes were also observed. They looked like membranous structures sneaking through the plasma membranes. We could not, however, found any evidences of their involvement in exocytotic processes. These were present toward the capillaries and found only in the adrenergic cells. The authors conclude that the secretory processes in adrenal chromaffin cells may include not only the classical exocytotic processes but also the unusual direct secretions of granules or parts of cellular organelles. The membranous lamellar structures may indicate the remnants of excreted granules or functionally inactive excess membranes of the organelles removed from the cytoplasm.

This paper will begin by describing osmosis and how reverse osmosis works. It will show how osmotic pressure affects reverse osmosis operations. It uill explain salt rejection, membrane flux, and recovery rates and the affect that salt built up has on membrane performance. It wil 1 explain the limitations of RO performance and why pretreatment is important. It will describe the two basic types of membrane, asymmetric and thin-film composite and explain the difference between these types plus compare cellulose acetate types to aromatic polyamide type membranes. It will discuss operating efficiences as it compares to feedwater pressure, concentration, temperature and pH. Finally, it will discuss the differences between tubular, plate and frame, hollow fiber and spiral wound element design. It will be a paper that talks about the basics of RO systems and should give a person who is unfamiliar with RO a basic introduction to this type of separation technology.

Alumina UF membranes were prepared by sol-gel process and their gas permeabilities were characterized. Alumina MF membrane with average pore diameter about 0.12$\mu$m and tubular shape was used as a support. Gas permeation measurements of helium and nitrogen gas exhibited the permeabilities of 1.58 $\times$ 10E-6 and $0.63 \times 10E-6 cc\cdot cm(STP)/cm^2\cdot sec \cdot cmHg$, respectively. The permeability ratio was 2.5. This means the gas permeation is fully governed by knudsen diffusion mechanism.

Utilization of biomass resources has considerable contribution to the reduction of carbon dioxide emission. Ethanol is one of the biomass products and is used as an additive to gasoline in several countries. Conventional process to produce ethanol involves energy-intensive azeotropic distillation. Pervaporation (PV) or vapor permeation (VP) is considered to be an alternative separation process to the conventional process.(omitted)

본 연구에서는 4종류의 탄소계 관형 세라믹막으포 제지공장의 방류수를 물로 주기적 역세척하면서 한외여과하였을 때, 물 역세척 주기와 막간압력차 (TMP), 유량의 영향과 최적운전조건을 규명하였다. 역세척 시간(BT)은 3초로 고정하였고, 역세척 주기(FT)는 여과시간을 15~60초로, TMP는 1.00~2.50$kg_{f}$/$cm^2$로, 유량은 0.25~1.75 L/min로 변화시켜 가면서 각각 그 영향을 살펴보았다. 또한, 최적조건은 무차원 투과선속 (J/$J_O$) 및 총 여과부피 ($V^T$), 막오염에 의한 저항 ($R^f$)의 측면에서 고찰하였다. 그 결과 최적 역세척 주기는 BT/FT=0.20로, 빈번한 역세척은 막오염을 감소시켰다. 한편, $V^T$측면에서 최적 TMP는 1.00~1.55$kg_{f}$/$cm^2$로 TMP 증가는 막오염을 심화시켜 투과선속을 감소시켰으나, 유량 증가는 막오염을 감소시켜 투과선속을 증가시키는 경향을 보였다. 본 연구에서 사용한 탄소계 세라믹 분리막에 의한 오염물질 제거율은 탁도의 경우 88~98%로 높았으나, $COD_{cr}$의 경우 48~72%, 총용존고형물 (TDS)의 경우 37~76%였다.

In order to observe the pathological changes of kidney in rabbits infected with the viral haemorrhagic disease, the kidney tissues from the 91 rabbits infected with the viral haemorrhagic disease were examined by light and electron microscopy. The results observed were as follows: 1. On light microscopic observation, the kidney lesions were identified as haemorrhagic glomerular necrosis(33.0%), membranous glomerulonephritis(20.9%), thrombotic glomerulopathy(19.8%), membranoproliferative glomerulonephritis(8.8%), mesangial proliferative glomerulonephritis(8.8%) ischemic acute tubular necrosis(7.7%), and acute serous glomerulitis(6.6%). 2. On electron microscopic observation, cytoplasmic degeneration of mesangial cells, and irregular thickening of basement membranes with electron dense granular materials were observed. In podocytes swelling of mitochondria, dilatation of endoplasmic reticulum and extensive fusion of foot processes were also observed. Nonenveloped round icosahedral picornaviral particles with a diameter of 28~33nm were detected in the cytoplasm of degenerative endothelial cells, polymorphonuclear leucoytes, and monocytes.
