With the increasing demand on reverse osmosis (RO) membranes for water purification worldwide, the number of disposed membrane elements is expected to increase accordingly. Thus, recycling and reuse of end-of-life RO membranes should be a global environmental action. In this work, we aim to reuse the spent RO membrane for nanofiltration (NF) and ultrafiltration (UF) process by subjecting the spent membrane to solvent and oxidizing solution treatment, respectively. Our results showed that solvent-treated RO membrane could perform as good as commercial NF membrane by achieving similar separation efficiencies, but with reduced water permeability due to membrane surface fouling. By degrading the polyamide layer of RO membrane, the transformed membrane could achieve high water permeability (85.6 L/㎡.h.bar) and excellent rejection against macromolecules (at least 87.4%), suggesting its reuse potential as UF membrane. More importantly, our findings showed that in-situ transformation on the spent RO membrane using solvent and oxidizing solution could be safely conducted as the properties of the entire spiral wound element did not show significant changes upon prolonged exposure of these two solutions. Our findings are important to open up new possibilities for the discarded RO membranes for reuse in NF and UF process, prolonging the lifespan of spent membranes and promoting the sustainability of the membrane process.

발효액으로부터 유산을 정제하기 위해서 나노여과를 이용할 때, hardness의 제거효율은 발효액내 이온성분의 분포와 밀접한 관련이 있다. 특히 음전하를 띠고 있는 막의 경우, 용액내 이가 음이온에 의해서 모든 이온들이 영향을 받으며 일가 음이온의 반발력은 거의 없는 것으로 관찰되었다. 따라서 발효액내 일가 음이온의 양을 줄이거나 더 높은 전하밀도를 가진 막을 사용한다면 나노여과를 이용하여 발효액내 hardness를 효과적으로 제거할 수 있으리라 생각된다.

Pretreatment process consisted of submerged hollow-fiber microfiltration(HMF) membrane and spiral-wound nanofiltration(SNF) membrane has been developed by NETEC, KHNP for the purpose of improving the impurities of liquid radioactive waste before entering Selective Ion Exchange System(SIES). The lab-scale combined system was installed at Kori NPP #2 nuclear power plant and demonstration tests using actual liquid radioactive waste were carried out to verify the performance of the combined system. The submerged HMF membrane was adopted for removal of suspended solid in liquid radioactive waste and the SNF membrane was used for removal of particulate radioisotope such as, Ag-l10m and oily waste because ion exchange resin can not remove particulate radioisotopes. The liquid waste in Waste Holdup Tank (WHT) was processed with HMF and SNF membrane, and SIES. The initial SS concentration and total activity of actual waste were 38,000ppb and $1.534{\times}10_{-3}{\mu}Ci/cc$, respectively. The SS concentration and total activity of permeate were 30ppb and lower than LLD(Lower Limit of Detection), respectively.

1. Introduction : Research progresses in Chemistry and Chemical Engineering have been made during the last decades with important contributions to the industrial development and to the quality of our life. An interesting case is related to the membrane science and technology continuous impact to innovative processes and products, particularly appropriate for a sustainable industrial growth. Membrane operations have been familiar for many years to biologists and chemists working in their laboratorier or studying biological phenomena. Only recently engineers started to operate in' this area. The preparation of asymmetric CA membranes at University of California, Los Angeles in the early 60s is generally recognized as a crucial moment for membranology (1). Loeb and Sourirajan with their discovery of how to increase significantly the permeability of polymeric membranes without significant changes in their selectivity, made realistic the possibility of their use in large scale operations for desalting brackish and sea water by reverse osmosis and for various other molecular separations in different industrial areas. Reverse osmosis is today a well recognized basic unit operations, togheter with ultrafiltration, crossflow microfiltration,. nanofiltration, all pressure driven membrane processes. Already in 1992 more than 4 milIions m$^3$/day were the total capacity of RO desalination plants and in 1995 more than 180.000 m$^2$ of ultrafiltration membranes were installed for the treatment of wheys and milk (2) (3).

본 연구는 축산분뇨 처리장(바이오가스 플랜트) 액비의 고도처리에 적합한 공정을 도출하기 위한 기초 연구이다. 액비를 고도처리하기 위하여 나노여과 및 역삼투(reverse osmosis) 공정을 각각 사용하였고, 전처리공정으로서 담체를 첨가하지 않은 MBR과 담체를 첨가한 MBR을 각각 적용하여 비교하였다. 액비의 질소는 주로 암모니아성 질소의 형태로 존재하였다. MBR의 운전에서 담체(biomedia) 유무에 따른 COD, T-N 및 T-P의 제거효율에서 큰 차이는 없었으나, 담체를 첨가한 MBR의 TMP는 담체를 첨가하지 않은 MBR에 비해 매우 서서히 증가하였다. 전처리 공정으로 담체를 첨가한 MBR 공정을 사용한 경우, NF에 의한 COD, T-N 및 T-P의 제거효율은 각각 99.8, 86.5% 및 99.8%이었으며, RO에 의한 제거효율은 각각 99.9, 86.8% 및 99.9%이었다. MBR과 NF/RO 공정을 이용하여 처리한 액비의 최종 수질은 분뇨처리장 방류수 수질기준과 비교하였을 때, COD와 T-P는 방류수 수질기준을 만족하였으나, T-N은 수질기준에 부적합하였다. 따라서 T-N에 대한 방류수 기준을 만족시키기 위해서는 MBR 조업 cycle의 조정 또는 나노여과/역삼투에 의한 2차 재처리 등의 개선이 필요한 것으로 판단된다.

염료속에 함유된 무기염(NaCl, $Na_2SO_4$)의 선택적 제거를 위해 역확산과 역삼투를 결합한 방법과 nanofiltration(NF)을 각각 이용하였다. 역확산에 의한 염의 제거율은 염의 종류에 따라 1회(one pass)에 1~30%를 나타냈으며 염과 염료의 분리비는 10~500의 매우 큰 값을 갖는 반면 염료의 손실율은 0.3% 이하였다. 염료용액을 순환시킬수록 음이온인 $Cl^-$ 이온의 제거율이 증가하고 양이온인 $Na^+$ 이온의 제거율이 감소하는 도난투석현상이 관찰되었다. 또한 공급용액의 유속이 염의 제거에 미치는 영향을 살펴보았다. 역확산에 의해 염이 제거된 염료를 평판형 역삼투막을 사용하여 농축하였으며 $Cl^-$ 이온의 배제율을 solution-diffusion 모델식에 적용하였다 2회의 Diafiltration(DF)을 수행한 NF에서도 역확산에서와 마찬가지로 도난투석에 의해 $Cl^-$ 이온의 배제율 감소와 음배제율을 관찰하였다. 특히 두번째 DF에서 도난투석의 효과는 더욱 크게 나타났다.
