Purpose: After exposure of fracture site, the proximal segment must be reduced to their preinjury position for open reduction of fractured mandibular condyle. We examined the use of inter-maxillary fixation screws or titanium screws tied with stainless steel wire to assist in positioning of proximal segment. Since it enables to make a relatively small preauricular incision by not disturbing the operative field like Moule pin, we can reduce the danger of injury to the facial nerve. Methods: A preauricular approach was used for exposure, reduction, and rigid fixation in 4 cases of mandibular condylar fractures. Inter-maxillary fixation screws or titanium screws tied with stainless steel wire were used to assist in aligning proximal segment. The joints were submitted to functional exercises and postoperative radiologic and clinical follow-ups were performed. Results: No facial nerve lesions were found in all 4 cases. Radiologic follow-up showed correct reduction and fixation in all 4 cases. Clinical follow-up showed an initial limitation, but normal morbility of the condyle was achieved within 4 months after the operation, with a maximum mouth opening of $34.1{\pm}5.2mm$ after 12 months. There found no occlusal disturbances, no trismus, no lateral deviations of the mandible. Conclusion: By using Inter-maxillary fixation screws tied with stainless steel wire, it was shown that reducing the proximal segment to their preinjury position is easy to perform and it enables us to make a minimal dissection below preauricular skin incision to avoid facial nerve injury.

Objectives: To compare the clinical and radiological outcomes after closed reduction (CR) and open reduction and internal fixation (ORIF) in the management of subcondylar fractures. Materials and Methods: Forty-eight patients presenting with subcondylar fracture between January 2010 and March 2013 were evaluated retrospectively. Fifteen patients were treated with CR and 33 patients with ORIF. The clinical and radiologic parameters were evaluated during follow-up (mean, 7.06 months; range, 3 to 36 months). Results: In the CR group, no patients had any problems with regard to the clinical parameters. The average period of maxillomandibular fixation (MMF) was 5.47 days. The preoperative average tangential angulation of the fractured fragment was $3.67^{\circ}$, and loss of ramus height was 2.44 mm. In the ORIF group, no clinical problems were observed, and the average period of MMF was 6.33 days. The preoperative average tangential angulation of the subcondylar fragment was $8.66^{\circ}$, and loss of ramus height was 3.61 mm. Conclusion: CR provided satisfactory clinical results, though ORIF provided more accurate reduction of the fractured fragment. So there is no distinct displacement of fractured fragment, CR should be selected than ORIF because of no need for surgery.

A study on the removal of sulfur dioxide and nitrogen oxide was carried out using a non-thermal nano-pulse corona discharger at different gas temperatures. Pulse voltage with a high voltage of 50 kV, a pulse rising time of about 100 ns, a full width at half maximum of about 500 ns and a frequency of 1 kHz was applied to a wire-cylinder corona reactor. Ammonia and propylene gases were added into the corona reactor as additives with a static mixer. Ammonia addition had less effect on $SO_2$ reduction at the higher temperature because of the retardation of ammonium sulfate formation. However, propylene addition enhanced NO reduction at higher temperature due to increased gas mixture. $SO_2$ was further removed at the mixed $SO_2$ and NO gas due to increased $NO_2$ by the conversion of NO. The addition of ammonia and propylene gases was more highly dominant for the removal of sulfur dioxide compared to the sole pulse corona without the additives. However, the specific energy density per unit concentration of pulse corona as well as propylene additive was an important factor to remove NO gas. Therefore, the specific energy density per unit concentration of 0.04 Wh/($m^3{\cdot}ppm$) was necessary for the NO removal of more than 80% with the concentration ratio of 2.0 for propylene and NO. Hydrogen peroxide was another alternative additive to remove both $SO_2$ and NO in the nano-pulse corona discharger.

Numerical simulations of freely propagating flames burning $H_2/HCl/Air$ Air mixtures were performed at atmospheric pressure in order to understand the effect of hydrogen chloride on flame structures. The chemical and physical effects of hydrogen chloride on flame structures were observed. A chemical kinetic mechanism was developed, which involved 26 gas-phase species and 198 forward elementary reactions. Under several equivalence ratios the flame speeds were calculated and compared with those obtained from the experiments, the results of which were in good agreement. As hydrogen chloride as additive was added into $H_2/Air$ flame, the flame speed, radical concentration and NO production rate were decreased. The chemical effect of hydrogen chloride caused the reduction of radical concentration, and then the decrease of the net rate of NO production. It was found that the influence in the reduction of $EI_{NO}$ with the addition of hydrogen chloride was attributed more due to the chemical effect than the physical effect.

석탄화력발전소로부터 배출되는 질소산화물(NO + NO₂ = NO_x)은 NH₃를 환원제로 사용하여 선택적으로 환원시키는 SCR(selective catalytic reduction) 탈질촉매시스템에서 효과적으로 제거될 수 있다. 이 SCR 촉매공정에서 원소수은을 산화시켜 후속공정에서 제거하기 위하여 수많은 산화촉매들이 제안되었으나 MW급 석탄연소시설이나 상업운전 중인 석탄발전소 탈질시스템에서 원소수은 산화성능을 실증한 사례들은 매우 드물다. 실배가스에서 수행한 실증연구들을 심층적으로 조사·분석한 바는 기존 SCR 탈질촉매뿐 아니라 수은산화능을 향상시킨 신촉매의 원소수은 산화활성은 석탄연소, 실배가스 등의 특성에 따라 매우 복잡한 양상을 띤다는 점이다. 그럼에도 불구하고 석탄연소시설에 사용하는 원료탄, 탈질시스템과 실증조건이 원소수은 산화능에 가장 큰 영향을 미치는 핵심 요소이다. 특히, 원료탄에 함유된 할로겐 함량은 탈질촉매공정의 중요성을 넘어서는 것으로 보여진다. 석탄에 존재하는 대표적인 할로겐 성분은 Cl, Br과 F이고 이들 중에서 Cl이 지배적이며 다른 할로겐계처럼 염으로 존재하지만 석탄연소 과정에서 미량의 Cl₂와 함께 HCl로 전환된다. 이러한 HCl은 원소수은 산화에 있어서 강력한 산화제로 작용하지만 석탄마다 Cl 함량이 다르기 때문에 HCl 농도 또한 강하게 의존한다.

The new MPV-type reagent, Al-fluorodiisobutylalane (DIBAF), has been prepared and their reducing characteristics in the reduction of selected organic compounds containing representative functional groups have been examined in order to find out a new reducing system with unique applicability in organic synthesis. In general, the reagent is extremely mild, showing only reactivity toward aldehydes, ketones, and epoxides. The reagent achives a clean 1,2-reduction of enals to the corresponding allylic alcohols in a 100% purity, but shows no reactivity toward enones. The reagent also shows an excellent regioselective cleavage of substituted epoxides. In addition, DIBAF produces the thermodynamically more stable alcohol epimer in high stereoselectivity in the reduction of cyclic ketones.

질소산화물 ($NO_X$)은 고정원(화력발전소, 산업시설) 및 이동원(자동차, 선박) 등에서 배출되어지며, 발암물질 및 광화학 스모그의 주범으로 작용하고 있다. 선택적 촉매 환원법(SCR)은 $NO_X$를 제거하는 가장 효율적인 방법이며, 상업용으로 사용되어지는 $V_2O_5-WO_3/TiO_2$계 촉매에서 $V_2O_5$ 함량은 0.5~3 wt%, $WO_3$ 함량은 5~10 wt%이다. 촉매 성분 중 $V_2O_5$의 경우 $NO_X$ 환원 반응을 통해 촉매 작용을 촉진시키지만, 과량으로 첨가될 경우, $SO_2$에서 $SO_3$로의 산화 반응을 증가시킨다. 본 연구에서는 높은 탈질 효율을 유지시킴과 더불어, 바나듐의 함량을 줄이기 위하여, 그래핀을 바나듐 담지 matrix로 사용하여 나노복합체를 합성하였으며, 합성된 나노복합체를 첨가하여 Honeycomb형 1 inch SCR 촉매를 제조하였다. 제조된 SCR 촉매는 XRD(X-ray Diffraction), XRF(X-ray Fluorescence Spectrometer), BET(Brunauer, Emmett & Teller) 등의 분석을 통해 물성 평가를 진행하였으며, Micro Reactor(MR)를 이용하여 활성평가를 진행하였다. 그 결과, 촉매 상용 운전 온도인 $350^{\circ}C$에서 나노복합체가 첨가된 SCR 촉매의 탈질 효율은 77.1 %로 상용촉매의 탈질 효율인 77.8 %와 유사한 효율을 나타내는 것을 확인하였다.

연소 배기가스 중의 수분, 탄화수소 및 CO가 저온 플라즈마 및 $NH_{3}$ SCR (Selective Catalytic Reduction)공정이 복합된 탈질공정에 미치는 영향에 대한 연구가 수행되었다. 실험결과 일반적인 SCR 반응에 비해 매우 빠른 반응속도를 갖는 fast SCR 반응은 $150{\sim}200^{\circ}C$의 저온조건에서 탈질율의 상승을 가져다주지만, 처리가스 중에 탄화수소가 있는 경우 fast SCR 반응의 역할이 상당히 감소되는 것을 확인할 수 있었다. 이는 저온 플라즈마 반응기에서 부분산화반응을 통해 탄화수소 중 일부가 알데히드로 전환되며, 알데히드는 fast SCR 반응에 있어 중요한 변수인 $NO_{2}/NO_{x}$ 비율에 영향을 주기 때문인 것으로 설명되었다. 한편, 수분 및 CO가 fast SCR 반응에 미치는 영향은 탄화수소에 비해 상대적으로 적음을 확인할 수 있었다.

Copper complexes have been directly incorporated into cellulose acetate (CA) and the resulting light blue colored homogeneous films of 5-20 wt.% copper acetate complex concentrations are found to be thermally stable up to 200 $^{\circ}C$. The reaction chem istry of Cu in CA has been investigated by reacting them with small gas molecules such as CO, H2, D2, O2, NO, and olefins in the temperature range of 25-160 $^{\circ}C$, and various Cu-hydride, -carbonyl, -nitrosyl, and olefin species coordinated to Cu sites in CA are characterized by IR and UV/Vis spectroscopic study. The reduction of Cu(II) complexes by reacting with H2 gas at the described conditions results in the formation of Cu2O and copper metal nanoparticles in CA, and their sizes in 30-120 nm range are found to be controlled by adjusting metal complex concentration in CA and/or the reduction reaction conditions. These small copper metal particles show various catalytic reactivity in hydrogenation of olefins and CH3CN; CO oxidation; and NO reduction reactions under relatively mild conditions.

미생물에 의한 6가이온 크롬의 3가이온으로의 환원은 세균에게 크롬내성을 제공할 수 있는 것으로 알려져 있다. 본 연구에서는 이러한 가설을 확인하기 위하여 크롬오염 토양과 오염되지 않은 토양으로부터 형태적으로 다른 20종의 세균을 순수분리하고 각각의 균주에서 크롬내성과 크롬환원능을 상호 비교하였다. 전자의 공여체로 glucose를 사용했을 때 세포현탁액에 의한 크롬의 환원은 시간당 0.014-0.305mM Cr(VI)의 범위로 관찰되었으며, 액체배지에서 2mM의 크롬에 대한 내성은 크롬을 첨가하지 않은 배지에서 배양한 경우와 혼탁도를 비교한 결과 전혀 저해를 받지 않는 경우부터 93.4%의 성장저해를 받는 경우까지 다양하게 관찰되었다. 이러한 결과로부터 상관관계를 분석한 결과 크롬내성과 크롬환원은 전혀 상관이 없는 것으로 계산되었다. 한편 군집수준에서의 크롬내성비교는 크롬오염 토양과 오염되지 않은 토양에서 각각 19.1%와 0.4%로 나타나 크롬의 존재는 내성균주의 선택적 성장을 유도하는 것으로 밝혀졌다. 그러나 이때 획득된 크롬에 대한 내성은 크롬의 환원에 의해서 제공되는 것이 아님을 상관관계 분석으로부터 알 수 있었다.
