수처리 분리막 분야에서 고분자는 세라믹과 함께 가장 중요한 소재로 이용되고 있다. 본 총설에서는 이러한 고분자 분리막 소재의 기술동향을 상용화 제품을 중심으로 분석하고자 하였으며, 이를 위하여 수처리 분리막의 종류에 따라 MF (Microfiltration), UF (Ultrafiltration), NF (Nanofiltration)/RO (Reverse Osmosis) 분리막으로 구분하여, 국가별, 소재별, 회사별 고분자 분리막 제품 동향을 살펴보았다. 이를 통하여, 각 분리막 종류별로 주로 사용되고 있는 소재의 종류를 파악할 수 있었으며, 동시에 시장 지배적인 위치에 있는 업체들을 파악하고 이들 업체들이 어떤 소재들로 제품 포트폴리오를 구성하고 있는지 분석할 수 있었다. 이러한 결과들을 바탕으로 각각의 분리막 종류에 따른 소재 시장의 특징을 제시하였으며, 이런 특징을 바탕으로 각 시장에 신규로 진입하기 위한 기술 개발 전략을 제안하였다.

The performance of ultrafiltration (UF) membranes with molecular weight cut off (MWCO) of 1000 and 3500 Da in clarifying sugar cane juice was investigated, as well as the performance of a nanofiltration (NF) membrane with MWCO of 200 Da and a reverse osmosis (RO) membrane in concentrating sugar cane juice. For both cases the sugar cane juice had been limed and partially clarified. The UF membranes were found to be effective at clarifying the sugar cane juice in terms of purity rise and reduction in turbidity, colour, starch and protein. A purity rise of approximately 6 was achieved by both UF membranes at trans-membrane pressures (TMP) from 15 to 25 bar. However, Brix reduction in the permeate was between 14.5 and 41.85% and 12.11 and 26.52% for 1000 Da and 3500 Da membranes respectively. For the 200 Da and RO membranes the Brix in the concentrate was increased from 7.65 to 12.3 after 3 hours of operation for the 200 Da membrane at a TMP of 10 bar, whilst the Brix in the concentrate was increased from 15.65 to 27.6 after 3 hours of operation for the RO membrane at a TMP of 35 bar. Overall, UF membranes were found to be unsuitable for clarification of sugar cane juice since significant amount of Brix is reduced in the permeate, whilst RO membranes were found to be effective for concentration of sugar cane juice.

At present water crisis is not an issue of scarcity, but of access. There is a growing recognition of the need for increased access to clean water (drinkable, agricultural, industrial use). An encouraging number of innovative technologies, systems, components, processes are emerging for water-treatment, including new filtration and disinfectant technologies, and removal of organics from water. In the past decade many methods have been developed. The most important membrane-based water technologies include reverse osmosis (RO), ultrafiltration (UF), microfiltration (MF), and nanofiltration. Beside membrane based water-treatment processes, other techniques such as advanced oxidation process (AOP) have also been developed. Some unconventional water treatment technology such as magnetic treatment is also being developed.

A characterization of the permeation and separation using single salt solution was carried out with charged composite membranes. Various charged composite membranes were fabricated by blending an ionic polymer with a nonionic polymer in different ratios. In this study, sodium alginate, chitosan and poly(vinyl alcohol) were employed as anionic, cationic and nonionic polymers, respectively. The permeation and separation behaviors of the aqueous salt solutions have been investigated through the charged composite membranes with various charge densities. As the content of the ionic polymer increased in the membrane, the hydrophilicity of the membrane increased, and pure water flux and the solution flux increased correspondingly, indicating that the permeation performance through the membrane is determined mainly by its hydrophilicity. Electrostatic interaction between the charged membrane and ionic solute molecules, that is, Donnan exclusion, was observed to be attributed to salt rejection to a greater extent, and molecular sieve mechanism was effective for the separation of salts under a similar electrostatic circumstance of solutes.

This study examined the adsorption effect of aromatic pesticides by hollow fiber NF membrane on rejection and removal properties. Batch type adsorption test and hollow fiber NF membrane filtration were conducted with 5 different kinds of aromatic pesticides. 3 to 15 days were required to reach the equilibrium concentration and $0.3181{\sim}0.8094{\mu}g/cm^2$ were adsorbed to hollow fiber NF membrane. Since 5 hours of separation test were too short to keep steady state for permeate due to the repetition of sorption and desorption, longer times were required to evaluate the rejection performance of NF membrane. Sorption and desorption were confirmed by the separation test equipped with membrane and without membrane. Adsorption contribution of aromatic pesticides to hollow fiber membranes were shown to be ranged from 16.1% to 36.3% and indicated the difference considering sorption effect.

본 연구에서는 나노여과막과 역삼투막의 표면 개질을 통하여 유량의 향상 및 내오염성을 향상시키는 제조 방법을 개발하였다. 실란 화합물이 코팅된 복합막의 표면 성질이 막 오염 지수 MFI 값에 미치는 영향을 살펴보았다. 상용화된 역삼투막(RE1812-LP)과 나노여과막(ESNA 4040-LF) 복합막을 기저막으로 사용하여 실란 커플링제의 농도를 달리하여 개질 복합막을 제조하였다. 실란 커플링제 aminopropylmethoxydiethoxysilane은 아민 관능기와 3개의 알콕시 관능기를 가지며 아민 관능기가 가지는 친수성 특성이 개질막의 투과 수량 및 내오염성에 미치는 영향을 조사하였다. 개질막의 실란층의 안정적인 형성을 확인하기 위하여 FE-SEM, 접촉각 측정 및 제타 전위값 등의 표면 특성 변화를 살펴보았다. 특히 개질된 나노여과막의 2가 이온 수용액을 공급수로 할 경우 염제거율에 대한 영향 없이 내오염성이 현저히 증가함을 확인하였다.

A series of laboratory scale experiments were performed to investigate the feasibility of membrane separation technology for natural rubber (NR) wastewater treatment and reuse. Three types of spiral wound membranes were employed in the cross-flow experiments. The NR wastewater pretreated by sand filtration and cartridge filtration was forced to pass through the ultrafiltration (UF), nanofiltration (NF) and reverse osmosis (RO) membranes successively. The UF retentate, which containing abundant proteins, can be used to produce fertilizer, while the NF retentate is rich in quebrachitol and can be used to extract quebrachitol. The permeate produced by the RO module was reused in the NR processing. Furthermore, about 0.1wt% quebrachitol was extracted from the NR wastewater. Besides, the effluent quality treated by the membrane processes was much better than that of the biological treatment. Especially for total dissolved solids (TDS) and total phosphorus (T-P), the removal efficiency improved 53.11% and 49.83% respectively. In addition, the removal efficiencies of biological oxygen demand (BOD) and chemical oxygen demand (COD) exceeded 99%. The total nitrogen (T-N) and ammonia nitrogen (NH4-N) had approximately similar removal efficiency (93%). It was also found that there was a significant decrease in the T-P concentration in the effluent, the T-P was reduced from 200 mg/L to 0.34 mg/L. Generally, it was considered to be a challenging problem to solve for the biological processes. In brief, highly resource utilization and zero discharge was obtained by membrane separation system in the NR wastewater treatment.

염료제조공정에서 발생되는 폐수는 미반응 물질, 중간합성체, 반응기 세척액 등의 난분해성 물질과 함께 고농도의 염(salt)를 함유하고 있어 기존의 생물학적 처리를 위해서는 폐수를 3-5배 희석하여 처리한다. 따라서 폐수처리장의 규모가 커지고 처리 약품과 에너지의 소모가 증가하므로 처리가 비효율적으로 수행된다. 본 연구에서는 염료폐수처리 및 회수에 역삼투막을 적용하여 폐수의 농축과정에 따른 투과율, 배제율의 변화를 조사하였다. 염료폐수의 생물학적 처리공정에서 문제점으로 대두되는 염의 농도를 낮추기 위해서 Nanofiltration(NF)막을 이용하여 염료성분과 염을 분리하는 실험을 수행하였다.

원수 중의 오염물의 양과 종류가 급격히 증가함에 따라 기존의 정수방법은 점차 그 한계를 노출하고 있다. 이러한 문제점의 대안으로 최근 막분리기술을 도입한 고도정수처리공정이 주목되고 있다. 역삼투(reverse osmosis)와 나노여과(nanofiltration)등의 분리막을 이용한 정수처리 공정에 대한 연구가 활발히 진행되어 왔으나, 경제성이 보다 큰 한외여과(ultrafiltration, UF)와 부날활성탄(powdered activated carbon, PAC)의 결합 시스템의 도입이 연구되고 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 PAC-UF 시스템의 유입수에 배경물질(background organic matters, BOM)을 포함한 이성분계에서 미량유기물의 경쟁적 흡착 거동을 고찰하였다.
