세리신은 피브로인과 거의 같은 아미노산으로 이루어져 있으며 피브로인에 못지않게 그 활용이 기대되는바 화장품의 보습제, 식ㆍ음료의 첨가제, 생약제, 섬유가공제등 많은 분야에 이용되고 있다. 그러나 세리신의 회수에는 견 섬유의 주용도인 섬유 (피브로인)로서의 목적을 충족시키면서 부수적으로 세리신을 회수해야 한다는 큰 어려움이 있다. 즉 견섬유를 정련하여 세리신을 제거하는데는 주로 비누/알칼리 정련법이 이용되고 있으나 이 방법으로 정련을 하면 세리시이 가수분해하여 저분자화하기 때문에 그 회수가 어려워진다. (중략)

바이오디젤 대체 원료로서 폐돈지, 폐우지를 이용한 오일 추출 및 바이오디젤 생산 반응을 진행하고 이때 사용되는 과잉 메탄올의 회수 및 재사용에 관한 연구를 수행하였다. 추출된 오일의 상태에 따라 전처리를 위한 에스테르화 반응여부를 판단하게 되지만 에스테르화 반응과 전이에스테르화 반응 모두에서 상당량의 과잉 메탄올을 투입하게 된다. 에스테르화 반응에서는 이론량보다 20~50배 가량을 투입하고 전이에스테르화 반응에서는 오일:메탄올 이론 몰비인 3:1 보다 2~4배 가량을 이용하게 된다. 에스테르화 반응에 사용되는 촉매는 균질계 액체 산 촉매와 불균질계 고체 산 촉매가 이용될 수 있으며 본 연구에서는 황산을 이용한 에스테르화 반응을 실시하였으며 전이에스테르화 반응에서는 KOH를 촉매로 이용하였다. 각각의 공정에 사용된 과잉 메탄올의 재이용 방안을 조사하였으며 메탄올을 단증류를 통해 회수하는 방법과 회수된 메탄올을 이용한 에스테르화 반응 및 전이에스테르화 반응을 실시해 반응성을 조사하였다. 이를 통해 미반응 과잉메탄올의 회수 정제시 메탄올의 최대 수분함량(%) 허용치를 결정할 수 있었다. 회수된 메탄올을 재이용함에 따라 바이오디젤 생산비 중의 원료(메탄올) 및 설비비 절감이 가능할 것으로 판단된다.

White and black dross are resulted from the recycling of aluminum. There are no established processes to recover valuable materials from black dross. Hydrometallurgical processes seem to be suitable for the treatment of aluminum dross. The salts in the black dross are recovered by dissolving with water. The residues are treated by either alkaline or acid leaching. Although the leaching rate of alumina by NaOH is lower than that by acid, its intermediates are more suitable to the production of alumina-based materials. The future direction for the treatment and recovery of valuable materials from aluminum dross is discussed.

초산, 질산 및 인산이 함유된 폐혼산에서 초산과 질산을 1차 분리하고 남은 조인산으로부터 정제인산으로 회수한 후 에칭액의 원료로 재활용하기 위하여 용매 추출 기술을 검토하였다. 알루미늄(Al) 및 몰리브덴(Mo) 불순물이 함유된 조인산을 인산염 추출제를 이용하여 인산을 추출한 후 세정공정과 탈거공정을 거쳐 알루미늄과 몰필브덴을 분리하기 위한 최적 분리조건을 도출하고자 하였다. 실험 결과 추출공정과 세정공정, 그리고 탈거 공정을 통하여 알루미늄 및 몰리브덴의 함량을 1ppm이하로 분리 제거하여 정제 인산으로 회수가 가능하였다.

This paper studied the recovery of organic acid from organic acid salt by using bipolar membrane electrodialysis. Acetic acid and lactic acid was used as for organic acid. Organic acid concentration, sodium hydroxide concentration and pH values were measured at various current density. Organic acid salt was effectively converted to organic acid and sodium hydroxide. Based on the experimental results, mathematical models were developed, in which time changes in ion balance were considered. Model predictions of organic acid concentration, sodium hydroxide concentration and pH values were in good agreement with the experimental data.

Recovery of lactic acid from fermentation broth using chemical precipitation was investigated with various chemicals. Effects of chemical types, mixing speeds, settling duration, and solvent addition were evaluated to improve the recovery rates of lactic acid. Overall, recovery efficiencies increased as the dosage of chemicals increased. Recovery rate of lactic acid by CaO was higher than those of $Ca(OH)_2$ and $CaCO_3$. Recovery of lactic acid increased by 48% under the optimized reaction conditions which included a mixing speed at 180 rpm, a settling duration of 24 h, and addition of ethanol at 25%(v/v). Practical application needs to consider types and concentrations of other organic acids as well as lactic acid. Based upon the results of fluorescence excitation emission matrix (FEEM), size exclusion chromatography (SEC), characteristics of recovered lactic acid were same as that in the fermentation broth.

Oil shale is a sedimentary rock that contains organic compounds called kerogen that are released as petroleum-like liquids by retorting. In order to evalute oil shale as alternative oil resources, the physical properties of oil shale samples from US and Russia were investigated and Fischer assays were carried out. Thermogravimetric analysis shows that thermal degradation of oil shale consisted of two stage processes, with hydrocarbon release from kerogen followed by $CO_2$ release by carbonate decomposition. Organic compounds in oil shale have an high hydrogen/carbon ratio, and therefore liquid hydrocarbons could be obtained easily. Shale oil yields from Russian and US oil shales by Fischer assay were 12.7% and 18.5%, respectively. The density and boiling point of shale oils are higher than that of Middle East crude oil, indicating that further upgrading processes are necessary for refinery. On the other hands, sulfur contents are relatively low, and the amounts of Vanadium and Nickel are extremely small in shale oil. It was found that paraffins were rich in US shale oil while main components of Russian shale oil were oxygenated hydrocarbons.

Most propionic acid is added to food (especially breads) as preservatives and its form is sodium or calcium salt. Most countries admitted propionic acid as food preservatives but a tolerance limit is somewhat different according to countries. Recoveries of the official method for propionates reported as 50.0~60.0%. Accordingly new rapid determination method for propionates was developed using formic acid added sodium chloride (5 g) and ether (formic acid : ether = 1 : 2) as the extraction solvent to improve the official method with the complex processes. Propionate was dissolved from the samples with formic acid omitting steam distillation and ion exchange procedure. Then propionate in formic acid was extracted with ether and sodium chloride again. A $1\;{\mu}l$ aliquot of the filtrate of ether was analyzed by gas chromatograph. Recoveries from sample A and B fortified with propionic acid sodium salt were 85.0 % and 90.0 %, respectively.

Recovery of acids from the waste etching solution of containing nitric, hydrofluoric and acetic acid discharged from silicon wafer manufacturing process has been attempted by using solvent extraction method. With EHA (2-Ethylhexlalcohol) for acetic acid and TBP(Tri-butly Phosphate) for nitic and hydrofluoric acid as extraction agent was carried on experiment to obtain the process design data in separation procedure. From the McCabe-Thiele diagram analysis, we obtained the optimum conditions of phase ratio(O/A) and stages to separate the each acid sequently from the mixture acids. The recovery yield was obtained 90% above for acetic acid from the acid mixtures, 90% above for nitric acid from acetic acid extraction raffinate and then 67% above for hydrofluoric acid from final extraction raffinate.

A novel approach is presented to address issues associated with the use of strong acidic solutions for the leaching of magnesium oxide (MgO) from spent magnesia-carbon refractories. An ultrasonic flotation and separation process is employed, with a mildly acidic solvent, acetic acid, used to selectively chelate MgO from the spent refractories. When using 2 M acetic acid as a solvent, the recovery of the graphite exhibited 99.7 % with high purity of 72.7 %, showing a significant improvement compared to using water as the solvent. Furthermore, the technology presented in this study offers a method for producing magnesium acetate through the reaction of MgO in spent refractory with acetic acid, providing a means for the purification and separation of graphite.
