The main objective of this research is to study feasibility for applying metal membrane to remove particles from air scouring membrane backwash water. Also, the research was conducted to investigate the influence of polyamine coagulation on floc growth in membrane backwash water as pretreatment for removal particles. From the results of experiments for evaluating the influence of polyamine coagulation on floc growth, it was investigated that particles in the rage of 2~50 μm grew up to 30~5,000 μm. In addition, all six metal membranes showed lower removal efficiency, which was 0.87~13.89%, in the case of no polyamine coagulant. On the other hand, in the case of injecting polyamine coagulant, those did extremely high efficiency in 56~92%. From the SEM(Scanning Electron Microscope) images of filtered wiremesh and metal foam membrane, sieve effects were predominant for liquid solid separation in wiremesh and adsorption and diffusion capture effects were predominant in metal foam membrane.
TiCoxFe1-x(x=0.50~1.00)계 합금을 제조하고, 합금의 특성을 X-ray diffractometer (XRD), pressure composition temperature (PCT)곡선, scanning electron microscopy (SEM)에 의해 조사하였고, TiCoxFe1-x(x=0.50~1.00)-stainless steel (SS) 복합막에 대해 H2-N2 혼합기체분리실험을 하였다. X-선 회절분석에 의하면 TiCoxFe1-x(x=0.50~1.00)계 합금의 결정구조는 TiCo와 같은 입방정구조이었다. TiCoxFe1-x(x=0.50~1.00)계 합금은 120°C에서 hysteresis현상을 나타내었고, 합금 중 Fe의 양이 증가함에 따라 x=0.90~1.00과 0.50~0.55 범위에서는 hysteresis가 증가하였고, x=0.55~0.90 범위에서는 감소하였다. 가장 작은 hysteresis를 나타낸 합금은 TiCo0.55Fe0.45이었다. 120°C에서 TiCoxFe1-x(x=0.50~1.00)-SS 복합막의 수소투과압력의 최저값은 TiCo0.55Fe0.45에서 2.5 atm을 나타내었고, 최대값은 TiCo0.90Fe0.10에서 10 atm을 나타내었다. TiCoxFe1-x(x=0.50~.00)-SS 복합막에 의하여 120°C에서 H2-N2 혼합기체를 분리하는 경우, 가장 우수한 복합막은 고압부의 수소투과압력이 2.5 atm으로 가장 낮고, hysteresis가 가장 작은 TiCo0.55Fe0.45-SS 복합막이었다.
