This paper was to investigate the preparation of polysulfone(PS), polyethersulfone(PES) and polyphenylsulfone(PPS) membrane. The thermal property of PPS was higher than that of others. From the result of SEM, the concentration of polymer was found to have a significant effect on the structure of membrane, and the structure of membrane made of PES is found to have regular micell form of asymmetry. Permeability and selectivity for oxygen and nitrogen gas in the air were analyzed by GC. Permeabilities of the membrane made of PES for oxygen and nitrogen in air, 1.5 and $0.7(x10^9[cm^3(STP)cm/cm^2seccmHg]) $, respectively was higher than that of others. and Selectivity of the membrane made of PPS for oxygen to nitrogen gas in air was 2.9.

We investigated the separation of nitrogen heterocyclic compound (NHC) contained in a model coal tar fraction comprising four kinds of NHC [indole (In), quinoline (Q), iso-quinoline (iQ), quinaldine (Qu)], three kinds of bicyclic aromatic compound (BAC) [1-methylnaphthalene (1MN), 2-methylnaphthalene (2MN), dimethylnaphthalene (DMN) mixture with ten structural isomers (DMNs; regarded as one component)], biphenyl (Bp) and phenyl ether (Pe) by liquid membrane permeation (LMP). A batch-stirred tank was used as the permeation unit. An aqueous solution of saponin and n-hexane were used as the liquid membrane and the outer oil phase, respectively. Yield and selectivity of individual NHC was much larger than that of BAC, Bp and Pe. Increasing the initial mass fraction of the saponin to the membrane solution ($C_{sap,0}$) and the initial volume fraction of O/W emulsion to total liquid in a stirred tank (${\phi}_{OW,0}$) resulted in deteriorating the yield of individual NHC, but increasing the stirring speed (N) resulted in improving the yield of each NHC. With increasing $C_{sap,0}$, the selectivity of each NHC based on DMNs increased. Increasing ${\phi}_{OW,0}$ and N resulted in decreasing the selectivity of individual NHC based on DMNs. At an experimental condition fixed, the sequence of the yield and selectivity in reference to DMNs for each NHC was Q > Qu = iQ > In. Furthermore, we compared LPM method with methanol extraction method in view of the separation efficiency (yield, selectivity) of NHC.

폴리이미드 고분자막을 사용한 질소부하 장치를 설계하고, 이를 CA 저장에 활용하기 위한 기술적 기본 데이터를 제시하였다. 순수 산소 및 질소의 투과특성은 dual-mode sorption 모델로서 설명될 수 있었으며, 공기 중의 산소의 투과율은 공기 중에 존재하는 질소의 영향으로 순수 산소의 투과율에 비해 크게 감소하나, 공기 중의 질소의 투과율은 산소의 영향으로 순수 질소의 투과율에 비해 증가하였다. 수행한 압력 및 온도 범위 내에서 이상분리인자는 5에서 6 사이의 값을 나타내었으며, 공기의 분리인자는 이상분리인자보다 작은 값을 나타내었다. 산소의 투과활성화에너지가 질소의 투과 활성화에너지보다 커서 이상분리인자는 온도가 증가함에 따라 증가하였다. 제품회수율이 증가함에 따라 농축부의 질소농도는 급격히 감소하였으며, 이로부터 제품회수율은 CA 저장고에서 요구되는 질소농도를 얻기 위한 주요 조업인자임을 알 수 있었다. Polyimide 막 시스템을 이용한 CA 저장 공정의 가상적인 모형을 설정하고, 시스템의 조업시간에 따른 저장고의 질소농도를 예측할 수 있는 관계식을 제시하였다.

Thermoplastic polyurethane(PU)-based blend membranes were prepared by the solvent evaporation process. The gas sorption, diffusion, and permeation properties of PU-based blend membranes have been studied. The morphology of PU-based blend membranes was investigated by SEM. The result showed that phase separation occurred with increasing blend ratio. $CO_2$ permeation behaviors of blend membranes were affect by blend composition. Thermoplastic polyurethane(PU)-based membranes showed high $CO_2$ permeation and $CO_2$/$N_2$ selectivity of the blend membrane was improved with increasing the blend ratio.

폴리올레핀 산업에서 발생되는 올레핀 함유 배 가스(off-gas)에서 올레핀만을 선택적으로 분리하기 위해, 폴리디메틸실록산(Polydimethylsiloxane)계열의 막 소재들에 대한 올레핀과 질소의 투과특성을 연구하였다. 막 소재로는 가교 형태의 폴리디메틸실록산(Polydimethylsiloxane, 이하 PDMS라 칭함)막, 폴리실록산이미드(Polysiloxaneimide, 이하 PSI라 칭함)막, 아크릴변성 Oligo-PDMS가 부가된 Oligo-PDMS막들을 대상으로 공급기체의 온도($-20{\sim}50^{\circ}C$)와 압력(1∼25 atm)을 변화시키면서 에틸렌($C_2H_4$), 프로필렌($C_3H_6$), 부틸렌($C_4H_8$), 질소($N_2$) 기체의 단일투과특성을 조사하였다. 실험결과, 사용되는 막소재의 특징에 따라 다양한 투과특성을 보였다. 세 가지 막소재중에서 PDMS막이 가장 넓은 사용압력범위에서 높은 에틸렌투과도 및 에틸렌/질소의 분리특성을 보였으며 이 막을 대상으로 여러 투과조건에서 투과특성을 연구하였다. 선택된 가교 PDMS막을 통한 올레핀, 질소 기체들의 투과도는 투과기체의 분자크기(확산도 선택성)보다, 투과기체의 응축온도(용해도 선택성)에 좌우되는 경향을 보였다. 공급기체의 온도가 감소하거나 압력이 증가할 때, 응축성 기체인 올레핀 기체의 투과도는 증가하고, 비응축성 기체인 질소는 감소하는 특징을 보였으며 이에 따라 올레핀/질소의 선택도가 크게 증가하는 특징을 보였다. 이러한 결과들은 고무상 고분자막에서 보여지는 응축성, 비응축성 기체들의 전형적인 투과특성을 보여준다.

The worldwide annual production of polyolefins amounted to 60 million tons in 2000. During the process, 1-2 wt% of the olefin monomers have been emitted and flared into the air, causing the huge energy consumption and severe carbon dioxide emission. Recently, membrane process has been proved to be the most competitive among other separation processes in terms of cost of equipments, energy consumption and safety in this application. The performance of membrane process highly depends on the membrane properties and thus, it is very important to develop good membrane materials and composite membranes. We prepared PMDS dense and composite membranes and studied basic permeation behaviors of a series of olefins(ethylene, propylene, 1 -butylene), nitrogen and hydrogen as model gases.

Microstructural changes during tempering at the temperature range of $300^{\circ}C{\sim}700^{\circ}C$ for the nitrogen-permeated STS 410 and 410L martensitic stainless steels has been investigated. After nitrogen permeation at temperature between 1050 and $1150^{\circ}C$, the surface layer appeared fine $Cr_2N$ of square and rod types in the martensite matrices. Hardness of the nitrogen-permeated surface layer represented 680Hv and 625Hv, respectively, for 410 and 410L steels. It is considered that the fine homogeneously dispersive effect of precipitates by nitrogen caused the increased hardness. Due to the counter current effect of carbon from interior to surface during nitrogen diffusion from surface to interior, the 0.1%C alloyed 410 steel showed the low nitrogen content of 0.025% compared with 0.045% of 410L steel at the distance of $100{\mu}m$ from the surface. Tempering of nitrogen-alloyed 410 and 410L showed the maximum hardness at $450^{\circ}C$. This maximum hardness was considered to be the secondary hardening effect of very fine carbide and nitride. The decrease in hardness at $700^{\circ}C$ was the softening effect of the matrix due to the precipitation of many needle-shaped $Cr_2N$ for 410 steel and the precipitation of coarse nitride of $Cr_2N$ in line with the spherical precipitates with directionality for 410L steel. For 410 steel, the corrosion resistance of nitrogen permeated surface in the solution of 1 N $H_2SO_4$ were nearly unchanged, however the superior corrosion resistance was obtained for nitrogen permeated 410L steel compared to the solution annealed condition.

In this study, five representative, commercially available polymers, Ultem 1000 polyetherimide, Kapton polyimide, phenolic resin, polyacrylonitrile and cellulose acetate, were used to prepare pyrolyzed polymer membranes coated on a porous {\alpha}-alumina$ tube via inert pyrolysis for gas separation. Pyrolysis conditions (i.e., final temperature and thermal dwell time) of each polymer were determined using a thermogravimetric method coupled with real-time mass spectroscopy. The surface area and pore size distribution of the pyrolyzed materials derived from the polymers were estimated from the nitrogen adsorption/desorption isotherms. Pyrolyzed membranes from polymer precursors exhibited type I sorption behavior except cellulose acetate (type IV). The gas permeation of the carbon/{\alpha}-alumina$ tubular membranes was characterized using four gases: helium, carbon dioxide, oxygen and nitrogen. The polyetherimide, polyimide, and phenolic resin pyrolyzed polymer membranes showed typical molecular sieving gas permeation behavior, while membranes from polyacrylonitrile and cellulose acetate exhibited intermediate behavior between Knudsen diffusion and molecular sieving. Pyrolyzed membranes with molecular sieving behavior (e.g., polyetherimide, polyimide, and phenolic resin) had a $CO_2/N_2$ selectivity of greater than 15; however, the membranes from polyacrylonitrile and cellulose acetate with intermediate gas transport behavior had a selectivity slightly greater than unity due to their large pore size.
