본 연구에서는 디스크 링 형태에 패터닝된 박막을 적층시킨 모듈의 분리특성을 규명하고자 투과실험을 수행하였다. 먼저, 본 연구에서 자체 제작한 5가지 형태의 디스크 필터의 순수 투과도를 측정하였으며 그 값은 0.25 내지 $2.24L/m^2{\cdot}hr{\cdot}bar$이었다. 0.1 wt% 카올린 수용액을 투과시키면 순수 투과율이 가장 높은 모듈의 투과유속이 가장 높았고, 순수 투과율이 가장 낮았던 모듈의 카올린 투과유속이 가장 낮게 나타났다. 그러나 모든 모듈의 카올린 투과유속이 순수 투과율에 비례하지는 않았다. 또한 0.1 wt% 수용액으로 장시간 운전하기 위하여 디스크 필터 모듈 1에 주기적으로 역세척을 실시하였으며 가장 효율적인 운전조건은 투과시간 8분, 역세척 2분 주기임을 확인하였다.

분리막 투과증발은 증류에 비하여 낮은 에너지를 요구하기 때문에 물/유기물 혼합물의 분리에 이용될 수 있으며 공비 혼합물이나 이성질체의 분리에 선호되는 방법이다. 제올라이트 분리막은 고분자 분리막에 비하여 열적, 기계적, 화학적 안정성이 우수하며 NaA 제올라이트 분리막은 큰 친수성을 나타내므로 물/유기물 혼합물로부터 효율적인 물 분리에 적합하다. 본 연구에서는 NaA 제올라이트 분리막을 이용한 투과증발 막분리 공정을 이용하여 물/에탄올 혼합물에서 선택적으로 물을 분리하고자 하였다. 에탄올의 공급 농도가 증가함에 따라 총투과플럭스는 감소하였으며 선택도는 증가한 후 높은 에탄올 농도에서 감소하는 것을 관찰할 수 있었다. 실험 온도의 증가에 따라 총투과플럭스는 증가하였으며 선택도 또한 증가하였지만 높은 에탄올 농도에서는 감소하였다. 160시간 이상의 장기간 실험을 통하여 총투과플럭스와 선택도가 안정적으로 일정함을 확인할 수 있었다. 또한, 본 연구를 통하여 얻어진 NaA 제올라이트 분리막은 증류 및 PVA 계열 고분자 분리막보다 우수한 성능을 나타냄을 알 수 있었다.

Although lovastatin (LS) is widely used in the treatment of hypercholesterolemia, its bioavailability is known to be around 5%. This study was aimed to increase the solubility and dissolution-permeation rates of LS using solid dispersions (SDs) with bile salts. The solubilities of LS in water, aqueous bile salt solutions and non-aqueous vehicles were determined, and effects of bile salts on the cellulose or duodenal permeation of LS from SDs were evaluated using a horizontal permeation system. SDs were prepared at various ratios of LS to carriers, such as sodium deoxycholate (SDC), sodium glycocholate (SGC) and/or 2-hydroxypropyl-$\beta$-cyclodextrin (HPCD). The addition of bile salts (25 mM) in water increased markedly the solubility of LS by the micellar solubilization. Some non-aqueous vehicles were effective in solubilizing LS. From differential scanning calorimetric studies, it was found that the crystallinity of LS in SDs disappeared, indicating a formation of amorphous state. The SDs showed markedly enhanced dissolution compared with those of their physical mixtures (PMs) and drug alone. In the dissolution-permeation studies using a cellulose membrane, the donor and receptor solutions were maintained as a sink condition using pH 7.0 phosphate buffer containing 0.05% sodium lauryl sulfate (SLS). The flux of LS alone was nearly same as that of LS-SDC-HPCD (1:3:6) PM. However, the flux of LS-SDC-HPCD (1:3:6) SD slightly increased compared with drug alone and PM, suggesting that entrapment of LS in micelles does not significantly hinder the permeation across cellulose membrane. In the dissolution-duodenal permeation studies using a LS-HPCD-SDC (1:3:6) SD, the addition of various bile salts in donor solutions (25 mM) enhanced the permeation of LS markedly, and the fluxes were found to be $0.69{\pm}0.41$, $0.87{\pm}0.51$, $0.84{\pm}0.46$, $0.47{\pm}0.17$ and $0.68{\pm}0.32{\mu}g/cm^2/hr$ for sodium cholate (SC), SDC, SGC, sodium taurodeoxycholate (STDC) and sodium taurocholate (STC), respectively. The stepwise increase of donor SGC concentration increased the flux dose-dependently. From the relationship of donor SGC concentration and flux, the concentration of SGC initiating the permeation across the duodenal mucosa was calculated to be 11.1 mM, which is nearly same as the critical micelle concentration (CMC, 11.6 mM) of SGC. However, with no addition of bile salts and below CMC, the permeation was very limited and irratic, indicating that LS itself is very poor permeable. Higher protions of bile salt in SD such as LS-SDC or LS-SGC (1 : 49 and 1 : 69) showed highly promoted fluxes. In conclusion, SD systems with bile salts, which may form their micelles in intestinal fluids, might be a promising means for providing enhanced dissolution and intestinal permeation of practically insoluble and non-absorbable LS.

The surface of porous alumina membrane was modified with silane coupling agent in order to enhance hydrophobicity. The contact angle of water to the surface-modified alumina membrane was greater than $90^{\circ}$. The surface-modified membrane was tested in vapor permeation for the concentration of aqueous ethanol. With the increase of ethanol concentration in the feed, permeation flux increased due to the greater affinity of ethanol with surface-modified alumina membrane than that of water. The experimental results showed that the permeation rate of surface-modified alumina membrane was 15~1000 times greater than that of polymer membranes.

This study was aimed to investigate the feasibility of nasal delivery of caffeine for the elimination of sleepiness. The effects of various vehicles, solubilizers, and enhancers on the permeation of caffeine through rabbit nasal mucosa was observed. The permeation study was carried out using a Franz-type permeation system at $37^{\circ}C$, and the amount of caffeine permeated though the rabbit nasal mucosa was determined by a validated HPLC. The apparent solubility and phys iochemical stability of caffeine in various nasal formulations were was determined. The effect of hydrotropes and modified cyclodextrins on the solubility of caffeine in water was determined by equilibrium solubility method. The solubility of caffeine in water was 29 mg/mL at $30^{\circ}C$. The addition of sodium benzoate and nicotinamide at 10% improved the solubility of caffeine (115 and 132 mg/mL, respectively) in aqueous solution. The flux of caffeine though the nasal mucosa from aqueous solution was $2.1{\pm}0.26\;mg/cm^2/hr$. The addition of sodium benzoate reduced its permeation $(1.4{\pm}0.01\;mg/cm^2/hr)$, but sodium benzoate with 5% $2HP{\beta}CD$ and 0.03% monoterpenes increased its permeation $(2.4{\pm}0.04\;mg/cm^2/hr)$ markedly. The addition of nicotinamide also increased also increased its permeation $(2.5{\pm}0.36\;mg/cm^2/hr)$. markedly. As the concentration of caffeine in nasal formulation increased, the permeation flux increased linearly. Caffeine was stable physicochemically and enzymatically in the nasal mucosa extract at $37^{\circ}C$. These results suggest that caffeine can be efficiently delivered nasally and the development of nasal formulation will be feasible.

Ketoprofen is one of the propionic acid class of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug with analgesic and antipyretic effects. The most common side effects from ketoprofen after oral administration are gastrointestinal irritation, diarrhea, abdominal pain and retention of fluid. Ketoprofen was formulated as water-soluble gels to reduce these side effects. To increase the skin permeability of ketoprofen, microsphere containing ketoprofen was prepared with chitosan and ploy-$\varepsilon$-caprolactone. And then prepared microsphere was manufactured as an adhesive hydrogel with polyvinylpyrrolidone K-25, polyethylene glycol 4000, and various permeation enhancers. The flux and permeability of ketoprofen were evaluated. As the concentration of tween 80 and enhancers increased, the flux of ketroprofen was accelerated. Also the permeation rate was facilitated by enhancers, but did not affect the lag time. From these results, the adhesive hydrogel using microsphere could be a good delivery system for ketoprofen to improve the skin permeation.

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.

One dimensional numerical modeling was carried out for the melting behavior of dry snow and the unsaturated flow when heat was supplied from the bottom surface. Discrepancy between the previous experimental data and the present numerical results is substantially reduced by considering the density change of water permeation layer due to the infiltration of meltwater. In the parametric study for effective thermal conductivity, it was found that the effect of this parameter to the behavior of snow melting is minor. Sensitivity analysis showed that the melting time is most sensitive to changes in supplied heat flux, snow temperature, and bulk density, whereas snow bulk density and residual saturation have a significant effect on the height of water permeation layer in snow.

The effects of membrane fouling on the water permeability were examined using the hollow fiber microfiltration (HMF)membrane. A membrane module with a pore size of 0.1 micron was submerged in the permeation tank and water bath. The applied pressure was 12.4 kPa for direct solid-liquid separation of activated sludge. As the concentration of MLSS(880~2180mg/l) of the feed solution increased, the decreasing rates of the water flux increased and the membrane was clogged more rapidly. The water flux through the membrane did not increase effectively even with the increase in the applied pressure(40.0~93.3kPa). When the membrane was cleaned with water, the recovery rate of water flux were larger for lower applied pressure. The results indicated that the process of direct solid-liquid separation using HMF membrane was effective at lower pressure.

막을 이용한 증기투과는 유기용제 및 휘발성 유기화합물의 제거와 관련되는 환경문제와 결부되어 활발한 연구가 진행되고 있다. 막을 이용한 휘발성 유기화합물 증기의 분리는 막 재질은 높은 온도에도 견딜 수 있어야 하고 증기에 대한 화학적 저항성도 매우 좋아야 한다. 증기투과에 가장 널리 쓰이고 있는 PDMS (polydimethylsiloxane)의 단점을 보완하기 위해 본 연구에서는 4,4'-diphenylmethane diisocyanate (MDI), PDMS 소프트 세그먼트를 기초로 한 polyurethane-polysiloxanes (PU/PDMS)를 합성하고 그들의 증기투과 특성을 연구하였다 각 Feed에 대한 팽윤도는 톨루엔 > 1,2-이염화에탄 > 헥산 순으로 나타났다. Feed의 농도가 증가할수록 톨루엔과 1,2-이염화에탄의 flux는 점차 증가하는 경향을 나타내었지만, 헥산은 feed의 농도가 증가하여도 flux의 변화가 나타나지 않았다. PU/PDMS 막은 VOCs와 상대적으로 높은 친화도를 가지고 있기 때문에 permeate에서의 농도는 50% 전후로 일정하게 나타났다.
