Abstract

To determine the pervaporation separation characteristics of IPA/water mixtures, PEI/PDMS hollow fiber membrane module commercialized by Airrane Co. was subjected to both lab and pilot tests. The flux of $0.52kg/m^2h$ and IPA concentration of 68.5% at $25^{\circ}C$ were obtained whereas the $1.368kg/m^2h$ and 61.2% were measured at $55^{\circ}C$. In order to realized the durability of the module, the long-term test (at $50^{\circ}C$) of 100 days has been conducted and as a result, the flux $1.03{\sim}1.15kg/m^2h$ and IPA concentration 61.8~62.5% were maintained with the initial values.

Isopropyl alcohol (IPA)/물의 투과증발 분리특성을 알아보기 위해 상용화된 Polyetherimide (PEI) 중공사막에 Poly(dimethyl siloxane) (PDMS)로 코팅한 복합막 모듈을 이용하여 파일롯 테스트를 실시하였다. 공급액으로는 물과 IPA를 각각 85 : 15로 혼합하여 사용하였다. 실험 결과로 $25^{\circ}C$에서 투과도 $0.52kg/m^2h$, IPA 농도 68.5%로 높은 수치를, $55^{\circ}C$에서 투과도 $1.368kg/m^2h$, IPA 농도 61.2%로 높은 투과도를 얻을 수 있었다. 테스트를 진행한 복합막 모듈의 내구성을 알아보기 위하여 약 100일간 반응온도를 $50^{\circ}C$로 설정하여 장기테스트를 진행하였고 그 결과 약 $1.03{\sim}1.15kg/m^2h$의 투과도와 61.8~62.5%의 IPA 농도로 초기 측정량과 큰 차이가 없음을 나타내었다.
