역삼투공정과 비교하여 효율적인 농축공정인 OSRO공정에 의한 농축공정을 개발하여 에탄올 농축에 적용한 결과 역삼투공정에 비하여 높은 에탄올 농축효과를 얻었으며, 에탄올 분리효과가 뛰어난 OSRO용 막의 배발 및 농축장치를 다단으로 사용할 경우 산업화가 가능하다는 결과를 얻었다. 역삼투공정에 대한 OSRO공정의 농축도차($DC_{OSRO}-DC_{RO}$)는 전 실험범위에서 0보다 큰 값을 보이므로 에탄올 농축에 있어서 OSRO공정이 역삼투공정에 비해 효과적임을 확인하였다. OSRO공정에서 공급용액의 농도 및 부피유속이 감소하고 적용압력이 증가하는 것이 조업조건으로서 유리하였다. OSRO공정에 대한 이론식의 수치모사에 의한 해석적 결과로부터 단수가 증가할 수록 역삼투공정 및 OSRO공정의 농축도값은 커짐을 알 수 있었고, 같은 단내에서는 적용압력이 상승함에 따라 농축도값은 증가하는 경향을 보였다. 또한 수치모사에 의한 농축도 이론치는 실험치와 약 15% 이내에서 일치하였다. 농축도는 적용압려과 osmotic sink solution의 부피유속에는 비례하여 증가하며, 공급액 농도와 부피유속에 대해서는 감소함을 알 수 있었으며, 본 연구에서는 실험범위외의 수치모사에 의한 농축도 이론치도 제시하였다.

A mathematical model was developed to simulate the performance of a prototype wind-powered reverse osmosis desalination system. The model consists of two sub-models operated in a series. The first sub-model is the wind-energy conversion sub-model, which has wind energy and feed water as its input and pressurized feed water as its output. The second sub-model is a reverse osmosis (RO) process sub-model, with pressurized feed water as its input and the flow and salinity of the product water or permeate as its output. Model coefficients were determined based on field experiments of a prototype wind powered RO desalination system of the University of Hawaii, from June to December 2001. The mathematical model developed by this study predicts the performance of wind-powered RO desalination systems under different design conditions. The system optimization is achieved using a linear programming approach. Based on the results of system optimization, a design guide is prepared, which can be used by both manufacturer and end-user of the wind-driven reverse osmosis system.

본 연구는 한외여과 중공사형 모듈과 역삼투 나권형 모듈로 구성된 모듈 set 1∼7을 이용하여 모듈 set에 따른 순수 및 2차 처리수의 투과 flux를 고찰하고, 적용압력과 온도변화에 의한 한외여과 막과 역삼투 막의 분리 특성을 고찰하였다. 탁도와 SS는 한외여과 막에서 효율적으로 제거되며 COD, T-N, TDS 등은 역삼투 막에서 우수한 제거효율을 나타내었다. 적용압력과 온도의 증가에 따른 투과 flux는 선형적으로 증가하는 경향을 보였다. 이로부터 한외여과 및 역삼투 막은 정유공장 방류수의 고도처리 및 재활용을 위해 적합한 것으로 나타났다.

The membrane processes that are commonly uscd in water and wastewater treatment are reverse osmosis (Ro), ultrafiltration (UF) and microfiltration (MF), which utilize pressure differentials. There is also nano-filtration (NF), or low-pressure reverse osmosis, which is positioned midway between conventional reverse osmosis and ultrafiltration. Reverse osmosis membranes reject dissolved ions, while ultrafiltration can be used to reject relatively larger molecules, such as protein, polysacchalides and so on. Microfiltration is capable of eliminating particles at submicron level. This paper summarizes the characteristics of MSAS process first, as it is the main membrane process applied to wastewater treatment. Two successful examples of the applications, the cases of individual building reuse system and nightsoil treatment, are then shown. The latest trend of new membrane applications, i.e., immersed-type MSAS is also introduced.

Organic matters that comprise a tiny part of seawater generally occur over 50% of membrane fouling in Reverse Osmosis Process. This study evaluates Foundation efficiency of reverse osmosis membranes under brackish and seawater conditions and resistance of organic fouling. Moreover, analyzing the membrane surface through roughness, contact angle and zeta potential results in roughness and contact angle are proportional to flux decline rate (FDR), yet FDR has high value when zeta potential is low level. Furthermore, with various membrane fouling of different raw water conditions, the flux tends to improve when pH value is high and raw water which is complex with organic and cation pollutes membrane faster than organic separated raw water condition.

This study was focused on experiment for the separation and concentration process of Cu(II), Zn(II) solution with the variation of applied pressure and concentration using reverse osmosis plate and frame modules. Rejection coefficient and degree of concentration for Cu(II) component using single and multi-stage reverse osmosis process were showed 96.3~97.8%, 0.044~0.191(in single-stage), 96.3~98.4%, 0.400~2.264(in multi-stage) within the range of experimental condition, respectively. Those of Zn(II) were 93.3~97.1%, 0.019~0.395(in single-stage), 96.3~98.2%, 0.365~1.454(in multi-stage), respectively. Degree of concentration of multi-stage were higher than those of single-stage. Heavy metal[Cu(II), Zn(II)] separation was very efficient in using reverse osmosis plate and frame type modules. Separation efficiency for a mixed solution Cu(II) and Zn(II) was higher than those of each one of Cu(II) and Zn(II).

Many reports have warned of insufficient water supply in most countries in future and prospected providing safe and clean water become more difficult by lack of access to sustainable drinking water resources. Several facts and figures explained the impact by natural climate change and human activity results in the water scarcity and deterioration. Among many scientific solutions, the seawater desalination using a reverse osmosis membrane, so called SWRO (Seawater Reverse Osmosis) process, has been recognized as one of the most promising alternatives because of its stability and efficiency in producing large amount of drinking water from seawater through desalination by membrane filtration. Recently, in Korea, numerous researches are conducted to develop more productive and cost effective SWRO process for its wide implementation. The objective of this paper is to review the patents concerning SWRO technologies involving the plant engineering, maintenance including pretreatment of seawater and fouling control, module design, and mechanical units development for energy saving. The patents in Korea, U.S., Japan, Europe, and PCT were intensively researched and analyzed to provide the state of the art as well as leading edge technology on SWRO. This information can hopefully suggest meaningful guidelines on future research and development.

Simulations were conducted to predict supersaturation along Reverse Osmosis (RO) modules for seawater desalination. The modeling approach is based on the use of conservation principles and chemical equilibria equations along RO modules. Full Pitzer ion interactive forces model for concentrated solutions was implement to calculate activity coefficients. An average rejection rate for all ionic species was considered. Supersaturation has been used to assess scaling. Supersaturations with respect to all calcium carbonate forms and calcium sulfate were calculated up to 50% recovery rate in seawater RO desalination. The results for four different seawater qualities are shown. The predictions were in a good agreement with the experimental results.

역삼투 공정을 농축공정에 이용하기 위해 향류식 역삼투 나권형 모듈을 고안, 제작하여 염수의 농축실험을 수행하였다. 역삼투 분리의 배제도와 농축도의 관계를 고찰한 결과, 배제유량에 대한 투과유량의 비가 양쪽 관계의 중요한 매개 변수이며, 반사계수 값에 따라, 역삼투막의 배제도와 농축도가 Spiegler-Kedem 식의 경향을 따른다. 향류식 역삼투 공정은 일반 역삼투 농축 공정에 비해 농축의 장애 요소인 삼투압차를 효과적으로 저하시키는 효과가 있으며 농축도가 상대적으로 우수하였다. 향류식 나권형 모듈의 수치모사 결과 농축공정의 농축도 증가를 위해서는 모듈의 지름보다 모듈의 길이를 늘리는 것이 유리함을 알 수 있었다.
