Flux-enhancement mechanism of thin-film-composite (TFC) membranes for the reverse comosis (RO) process was newly explained by positron annihilation lifetime spectroscopy (PALS) that has been found to be applied for detecting molecular vacancies or pores having sizes that are equivalent to salt or hydrate ions in RO membrane.(omitted)

The current status of reverse osmosis and ultrafiltration membranes are reviewed with the view for the future. In the case of reverse osmosis (RO) membranes, as examples, new crosslinked aromatic polyamide membranes exhibited the superior separation performance with the sufficient water permeability, the high tolerance for oxidizing agents and chemicals. Ultrafiltration (UF) membrane based on poly(phenylene sulfide sulfone) (PPSS) also exibited the superior separation performance with the high solvent, heat and fouling resistance.

오늘날 경제 성장에 따른 도시고형폐기물(Municipal Solid Waste, MSW)의 발생량 증가로 MSW의 환경적인 처리 및 에너지 회수측면에서 폐기물 가스화에 대한 연구가 활발히 진행되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 폐기물 가스화 공정을 통하여 생산된 합성가스의 활용연구를 위하여 폴리아마이드 복합막을 이용한 일산화탄소 및 수소 혼합가스의 분리특성 연구를 수행하였다. 폐기물 합성가스의 분리특성 실험을 위하여 순수 일산화탄소와 수소를 혼합한 모사가스를 활용하였으며, 주입 기체의 유량과 스테이지 컷(stage cut)의 변화에 따른 분리특성에 있어서 온도의 영향을 고찰하였다. 각 실험조건에서 일산화탄소와 수소의 투과도를 평가하였으며, 이때 퍼미에이트(permeate)에서의 수소에 대한 선택도를 평가하였다. 또한 본 연구에서 일산화탄소와 수소의 기체 분리막에 대한 투과 활성화 에너지를 얻기 위하여 Arrhenius 도시를 이용한 분석연구를 함께 수행하였다.

방향족 폴리아미드 역삼투 복합 박막에 트리알콕시알킬 실란 화합물을 안정적으로 정착시켜 내염소성이 향상된 복합막을 제조하는 방법에 관하여 조사하였다. 실란 화합물의 알킬 그룹의 탄소가 1개인 methyltriethoxysilane (METES)와 8개인 octyltriethoxysilane (OCTES) 표면 개질에 사용하였다. 긴 알킬 체인을 갖는 실란(OCTES)이 정착된 멤브레인의 경우, 일반 폴리아미드 역삼투막 또는 짧은 알킬 체인을 갖는 실란(METES)에 비해 개염소성이 크게 향상됨을 알 수 있었다. 본 연구에서는 표면 분석을 통하여 OCTES 코팅막과 METES또는 상용막과의 내염소성 차이를 설명하고자 하였다. EDX 원소 분석을 통하여 실란 화합물 둘 다 폴리아미드상에 안정적으로 고정되었음을 볼 수 있었으나 표면 조도나 접촉각 분석에서는 긴 알킬 체인을 가진 OCTES가 혐수성에 큰 영향을 주고 있음을 확인할 수 있었다.

The paper discusses the use of stable emulsion, prepared by membrane emulsification technology, to improve the enantiocatalytic performance of immobilised lipase in multiphasic membrane reactors. The production of optical pure (S)-naproxen from racemic naproxen methyl ester has been used as model reaction system. The enzyme was immobilised in the sponge layer (shell side) of capillary polyamide membrane with 50 kDa cut-off, The O/W emulsion, containing the substrate in the organic dispersed phase, was fed to the enzyme membrane reactor from shell-to-lumen. The results evidenced that lipase maintained stable activity during all the operation time (more than 250 hours), showing an enantiomeric excess (96 $\pm$2%) comparable to the free enzyme (98 $\pm$ 1%) and much higher compared to similar lipase-loaded membrane reactors used in two-separate phase systems (90%). The study showed that immobilised enzymes can achieve high stability as well as high catalytic activity and enantioselectivity.

Inspired by the specific amino acid sequence Asn-Pro-Ala (NPA) of water channel aquaporins (AQPs), we fabricated polyamide (PA) nanofiltration (NF) membranes by introducing reduced glutathione (GSH) in interfacial polymerization (IP) method. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (ATR-FTIR), X-ray photoelectron spectrometry (XPS), scanning electron microscope (SEM), atomic force microscopy (AFM), zeta potential and static water contact angle measurement were employed to characterize the chemical composition, morphology, electronegativity and hydrophilicity of the NF membranes. The water flux of GSH/PIP-TMC NF membrane reached $32.00L\;m^{-2}h^{-1}$ at 0.2 MPa, which was approximately twice than that of pristine PIP-TMC NF membrane when the ratio of GHS to piperazidine (PIP) was 40% during IP process. More water channels were built as GSH was embedded into PA layer. The fabricated NF membranes also took on potent rejection for dyes and $Na_2SO_4$. This study presents a simple and facile method to simulate water channels-based biological materials which may find potential application in water treatment.

Treatment and reuse of industrial wastewater is becoming a major goal due to water scarcity. This may be carried out using membrane separation technology in general and reverse osmosis (RO) in particular. In the current study, polyamide (FT-30) membrane was employed for treatment of wastewater obtained from Faraman industrial zone based in Kermanshah (Iran). The effects of operating conditions such as transmembrane pressure, cross flow velocity, temperature and time on water flux and rejection of impurities including COD by the membrane were elucidated. The aim was an improvement in membrane performance. The results indicate that most of the chemical substances are removed from the wastewater. In particular COD removal was increased from 64 to around 100% as temperature increased from 15 to $45^{\circ}C$. The complete COD removal was obtained at transmembrane pressure of 20 bars and cross flow velocity of 1.5 m/s. The treated wastewater may be reused for various applications including makeup water for cooling towers.

기존의 폴리아마이드 박막 역삼투 복합막(PA TFC RO Membrane)은 우수한 분리투과특성을 지니고 있으나 내염소성이 상대적으로 낮은 단점을 지니고 있다. 본 연구에서는 이를 해결하기 위하여 표면에 -OH나 -COOH 기가 도입된 다공성 지지체를 제조하고, 그 표면에 폴리아마이드 박막을 형성하여 역삼투 복합막을 제조하였다. 제조된 역삼투막의 구조 및 분리투과 특성은 여러 가지 기기분석 방법과 투과테스트 방법으로 분석하였다. 폴리아마이드 박막을 제조하기 위하여 아민계 단량체로는 메타-페닐렌 디아민(MPD)과 2,6-디아민 톨루엔(2,6-DAT)을 사용하였고, 디엑시드계 단량체로는 트리-메소일 클로라이드(TMC)를 사용하였다. 제조된 복합막의 투과도는 800 psi에서 약 $1.0m^3/m^2day$ 이상이었으며 이때 염배제율은 99.0% 이상이었다. 내염소성도 친수성기가 없는 폴리설폰 지지체를 사용한 복합막에 비하여 우수한 것으로 나타났다.

The performance of a nanofiltration membrane for treatment of a low-level radioactive liquid waste was investigated through static and dynamic tests. The liquid waste ("carbonated water") was obtained during conversion of $UF_6$ to $UO_2$. In the static tests membrane samples were immersed in the waste for 24, 48 or 72 h. The transport properties of the samples (hydraulic permeability, permeate flow, selectivity) were evaluated before and after immersion in the waste. In the dynamic tests the waste was permeated in a permeation flow front system under 0.5 MPa, to determine the selectivity of NF membranes to uranium. The surface layer of the membrane was characterized by zeta potential, field emission microscopy, atomic force spectroscopy and infrared spectroscopy. The static test showed that the pore size distribution of the selective layer was altered, but the membrane surface charge was not significantly changed. 99% of uranium was rejected after the dynamic tests.

The 15 month pilot study was performed to investigate the effect of pretreatment by monochloramine ($NH_2Cl$) on the performance of RO membranes made of cellulose acetate (CA) and polyamide (PA). Both RO membranes experienced severe biological fouling without any pretreatment during the treatment of highly organic surface water in Florida, USA. Feed monochloramination at 5 mg/L significantly minimized productivity loss by effective control of biofouling. The CA membrane did not show any structural damages by monochloramine, while the PA membrane suffered from a gradual loss of membrane integrity by chlorine oxidation, which was characterized as an increase in productivity and a decrease in selectivity. The degradation of PA membrane increased with increasing monochloramine dose.
