Abstract

Ion exchange membrane (IEM) is an important class of membrane applied in batteries, fuel cells, chloride-alkali processes, etc to separate various mono and multivalent ions. The membrane process is based on the electrically driven force, green separation method, which is an emerging area in desalination of seawater and water treatment. Electrodialysis (ED) is a technique in which cations and anions move selectively along the IEM. Anion exchange membrane (AEM) is one of the important components of the ED process which is critical to enhancing the process efficiency. The introduction of cross-linking in the IEM improves the ion-selective separation performance due to the reduction of free volume. During the desalination of seawater by reverse osmosis (RO) process, there is a lot of dissolved salt present in the concentrate of RO. So, the ED process consisting of a monovalent cation-selective membrane reduces fouling and improves membrane flux. This review is divided into three sections such as electrodialysis (ED), anion exchange membrane (AEM), and cation exchange membrane (CEM).

이온교환막(IEM)은 다양한 종류의 단가이온과 다가이온을 분리하기 위해 사용되는 막의 한 종류로, 배터리, 연료전지, 염화물-알칼리 공정 등에 사용된다. 이온교환막을 통한 막분리는 전기 구동력을 기반으로 한 녹색 분리 방식이며, 해수 담수화와 수처리 분야에서 떠오르는 방식이다. 전기투석(ED)은 양이온과 음이온이 이온교환막을 따라 선택적으로 이동하는 기술이다. 음이온 교환막(AEM)은 전기투석의 중요한 구성 요소 중 하나이며, 공정 효율을 향상시키는 데 상당한 역할을 한다. 이온교환막에 가교결합을 도입하면 자유 부피의 감소로 인해 이온 선택 분리 성능이 향상된다. 역삼투(RO) 공정을 통한 해수 담수화 시 RO 농축수에 용해된 염이 다량 존재한다. 따라서 1가 양이온 선택막으로 구성된 전기투석 공정은 오염을 줄이고 막 플럭스를 개선한다. 이 검토는 전기투석, 음이온 교환막, 그리고 양이온 교환막의 세 부분으로 나뉜다.
