In the membrane process, it is important to improve water treatment efficiency to ensure water quality and minimize membrane fouling. In this study, a pilot study of membrane process using reservoir water was conducted for a long time to secure high flux operation technology capable of responding to influent turbidity changes. The raw water and DAF(Dissolved Air Flotation) treated water were used for influent water of membrane to analyze the effect of water quality on the TMP (Trans Membrane Pressure) and to optimize the membrane operation. When the membrane flux were operated at 70 LMH and 80 LMH under stable water quality conditions with an inlet turbidity of 10 NTU or less, the TMP increase rates were 0.28 and 0.24 kPa/d, respectively, with minor difference. When the membrane with high flux of 80 LMH was operated for a long time under inlet turbidity of 10 NTU or more, the TMP increase rate showed the maximum of 43.5 kPa/d. However, when the CEB(Chemically Enhanced Backwash) cycle was changed from 7 to 1 day, it was confirmed that the TMP increase rate was stable to 0.23 kPa/d. As a result of applying pre-treatment process(DAF) on unstability water quality conditions, it was confirmed that the TMP rise rates differed by 0.17 and 0.64 kPa/d according to the optimization of the coagulant injection. When combined with coagulation pretreatment, it was thought that the balance with the membrane process was more important than the emphasis on efficiency of the pretreatment process. It was considered that stable TMP can be maintained by optimizing the cleaning conditions when the stable or unstable water quality even in the high flux operation on membrane process.

본 실험에서는 실제 원수와 모사 원수를 이용하여 유기막(PES, PVDF 및 PTFE)을 이용하여 재질에 따른 막오염 특성을 분석하고자 하였다. 먼저 원수를 운전압력 1kgf/cm2로 여과하였다. 재질별 소요된 여과 시간은 약 5분, 약 13분, 약 17분으로 각각 나타났다. 또한 모사 원수 실험을 진행하였고, 원수 실험과 동일한 결과를 나타냈다. Jucker 와 Clark(1994)에 따르면 소수성 재질의 막이 유기물 흡착에 의한 Flux 감소가 크다고 보고하였고, 본 실험에서도 소수성 재질의 막이 높은 Flux 감소율을 나타났다. 실험 결과를 통해 막 재질 특성이 조류 유입에 따른 Flux 감소율에 영향을 미치는 것을 확인하였다. 본 연구는 환경부의 “환경정책기반공공기술개발사업”으로 지원받은 과제입니다.
