    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a filter apparatus for oil-water separation, and according to an embodiment of the present disclosure, when the filter apparatus for oil-water separation is mounted in a mixed fluid storage tank for storing a mixed fluid collected in seas or rivers in the event that an oil spill accident occurs, it is possible to drain off only water in the mixed fluid.In addition, it is possible to increase the storage efficiency of the mixed fluid storage tank by selectively draining and removing only water other than oil and impurities in the mixed fluid stored in the mixed fluid storage tank.

    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a fence having a hydrophilic material, and according to an embodiment of the present disclosure, there is an effect in collecting oil or hazardous & noxious substances quickly and efficiently while minimizing the pressure caused by water, by forming the fence from a material that allows water to penetrate while disallowing oil to penetrate.Additionally, there is an effect in preventing oil spill phenomena caused by damage or unbalance of the fence by reducing the water pressure applied to the fence due to water penetration even when a strong water pressure acts on the fence, for example, strong tidal currents occur and the fence is towed at high speeds to collect oil.

    Abstract: Provided are spilled oil collecting apparatus and method. The spilled oil collecting apparatus includes: a filter portion made of a porous substrate with hydrophilicity and having an open upper portion so as to collect oil; a frame portion provided at an upper end of the filter portion to support the filter portion; and a handle portion connected to the frame portion. According to the spilled oil collecting apparatus and method, it is possible to collect, separate, and store simultaneously spilled oil spilled from rivers or seas by using a porous substrate having hydrophilicity and optimize immediate collection of spilled oil by maximizing oil collection efficiency and minimizing labour force in an oil collecting process.

    Abstract: Provided is a polymeric material having a micro-nano composite structure, a device including the same, and a method of manufacturing the polymeric material. The polymeric material includes a polymer fiber or film, wherein the polymer fiber or film has, on a surface thereof, a micro-nano composite structure including a microstructure containing concavo-convex grooves having a microscale semi-cylindrical shape (“”) and a nanopattern containing nanoscale protrusions formed on a surface of the microstructure. The polymeric material has excellent absorbency and hydrophilic or super-hydrophilic surface properties, and also has oleophobic or super-oleophilic properties in water, and thus may be effectively applied to fields such as oil-water separation, purification, and filters. The polymeric material may be readily manufactured through an environmentally friendly, large-area atmospheric pressure plasma process.
