Vortex tube is the device that can separate small particles from the compressed gas, as well as compressed gas into hot and cold flow. In this study, computational approach has been performed to analyze the characteristics of the vortex tube. Energy separation characteristics of the vortex tube has been tested for various geometric design parameters. For the given conditions, it is found that as the tube is lengthened, hot end temperature is reduced but cold end temperature does not influenced much. As the orifice diameter decreases, cold end temperature decreases. Also, as hot gas fraction increases, hot end temperature decreases. The results from this study can be used for the basic design parameter of the $CO_2$ reduction device.

This study is on the separation of Global warming effect gas, CO$_2$by chemical absorption from mixture of CO$_2$-N$_2$which was modeled after flue gas of fire power plant. Investigation of optimum condition for absorbent was carried out by using sparged vessel apparatus. Through packed tower experiments, applicabilities of two absorption models were tested by comparing experimental results with theoretical values. Absorbent used in the experiments was Monoethanolamine (MEA) and gas mixture was made in the mole composition of 15% CO$_2$and 85% N$_2$. Through estimations of CO$_2$loading and CO$_2$removal efficiency, optimum concentration of absorbent was found in the range of 4-5 M. To find a rate of absorption, an enhancement factor was introduced. Values of rate of absorption were calculated by Film model and Higbie model, respectively. Higbie model showed good agreement with experimental results. Therefore, this models is considered to be applicable to the CO$_2$separation process for flue gas from fire power plant.

용융탄산염 연료전지에서 분리판으로 사용되는 316L 스테인리스 스틸의 내식성을 향상시키기 위해 Ni과 Al을 전기도금법에 의해 코팅하였으며 열처리를 통해 스테인리스 스틸표면에 $Ni_2Al_3$, NiAl 등의 금속간화합물을 형성시켰다. $62mol\%Li_2CO_3-38mol\%K_2CO_3$ 전해질 내에서 100시간 동안 침지실험을 수행한 결과 Al의 도금두께가 $10{\mu}m$ 이상인 경우에는 내식성이 상당히 향상되었음을 확인하였다.

Dense tubular $Ba_{0.5}Sr_{0.5}Co_{0.8}Fe_{0.2}O_{3-{\delta}}$ (BSCF) membranes were prepared by extrusion technique. The phase structure of the $Ba_{0.5}Sr_{0.5}Co_{0.8}Fe_{0.2}O_{3-{\delta}}$ membranes was characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and scanning electron microscope (SEM). Relative density of $Ba_{0.5}Sr_{0.5}Co_{0.8}Fe_{0.2}O_{3-{\delta}}$ tubular membrane was 94.10%. Oxygen permeation was measured at difference operating condition of feed side and permeate side in the temperature range from 700 to $950^{\circ}C$. The oxygen permeation flux of dense tubular $Ba_{0.5}Sr_{0.5}Co_{0.8}Fe_{0.2}O_{3-{\delta}}$ membrane reached maximum 1.37 mL/$min{\cdot}cm^2$ at $900^{\circ}C$ exposed to ambient air (feed side) and vacuum pump (permeate side).

In 10M chloride (4M HCl + 6M LiCl) solution, cobalt, but not nickel, formed complex anion (${CoCl_3}^-$), and this anion was extracted by a liquid anion exchanger with Amberlite LA-2. The ion exchange capacity was 2.175meq of cobalt complex per unit ml of Amberlite LA-2. Upon eluting the resin with 0.4M nitric acid, the cobalt complex was stripped and transfered into eluate quantitatively. By using this separation method in the chloride solution dissolved with 50mg of cobalt (II) and 500mg of nikel(II), recovery of cobalt were 99.6 percent.

Organic solvent resistant hollow fiber membranes were fabricated via a thermally induced phase separation (TIPS) method using Polyketone polymer, a material with excellent resistance to organic solvents. The PEG300, DMSO₂ and Glycerine called the "green solvents" were used as diluents for TIPS method. The spherulite structure was formed with DMSO₂ by S-L phase separation behavior whereas the bicontinuous structures were formed with PEG300 and Glycerine, respectively. The morphology of the PK hollow fiber membranes was investigated using SEM. The pure water permeability and the durability test were conducted to understand the permeation properties of PK hollow fiber membranes. The tensile strength test was conducted for the property of mechanical strength. In this study, the fabrication of PK hollow fiber membranes with various diluents was discussed to understand the correlation between diluent and polymer in detail.

$Ba_{0.5}Sr_{0.5}Co_{0.8}Fe_{0.2}O_{3-{\delta}}$ hollow fiber with o.d. 1.02 mm and i.d. 0.437 mm were fabricated by a phase-inversion spinning technique.The starting $Ba_{0.5}Sr_{0.5}Co_{0.8}Fe_{0.2}O_{3-{\delta}}$ precursor was synthesized by the polymerized complex method and then calcined at $900^{\circ}C$. As-prepared powder was dispersed in a polymer solution, and extruded as form of hollow fiber through a spinneret. Finallydense $Ba_{0.5}Sr_{0.5}Co_{0.8}Fe_{0.2}O_{3-{\delta}}$ hollow fiber membrane was obtained by sintering for 2 h at $1,080^{\circ}C$ for the application of oxygen separation. In addition, despite a very thin membrane with 0.58 mm, the BSCF hollow fiber membrane possessed a proper mechanical strength of 602.5 MPa.

Bioethanol was produced using the separate hydrolysis and fermentation (SHF) method with macroalgal polysaccharides from the seaweed, Undaria pinnatifida as biomass. This study focused on the pretreatment, enzymatic saccharification, and fermentation of yeasts in co-culture. Ethanol fermentation with 14.5% (w/v) seaweed hydrolysate was performed using the yeasts, Saccharomyces cerevisiae KCTC 1126 alone, Pichia angophorae KCTC 17574 alone, and their co-cultures with the yeasts either adapted to mannitol or not. Among the combinations, the co-culture of non-adapted S. cerevisiae and P. angophorae adapted to mannitol showed high bioethanol production of 12.2 g/l and an ethanol yield ($Y_{EtOH}$) of 0.41. Co-culture in the SSF process was employed in this study, to increase the ethanol yields of 35.2% and reduction of 33.3% in fermentation time. These results provide suitable information on ethanol fermentation with marine seaweeds for bioenergy production.
