Separation of $SO_2$ from the flue gases of fossil fuel power plants are important issue because of its strong environmental impact. Industrially, $SO_2$ is being removed with a slurry of limestone, lime or aqueous caustic soda. However, these scrubbing processes possess several drawbacks such as the generation of huge amount of wastewater and the production of metal salts. Recently, ionic liquids have gained increasing interest as an absorbent for acid gas, $CO_2$ and $SO_2$. In this review, we have introduced the recent progress of ionic liquids as a $SO_2$ absorbent.

최근의 극초단 펄스의 개발의 대부분은 주로 고체 이득매질을 이용하여 근적외선 영역에서 이루어지고 있다 그러나 가시광선인 500～700 nm 파장대역에서는 특성이 좋은 고체 이득매질의 개발이 이루어지지 않아, 가시광선 영역의 극초단 펄스의 개발에 대한 연구는 최근에는 거의 이루어지지 않고 있다. 현재로서 가능한 방법은 티타늄 사파이어 레이저를 이용하여 극초단 펄스를 발생시키고, 이를 CPA(Chirped Pulse Amplification)방법으로 증폭한 다음에 이의 제2고조파 펄스를 얻고, 이를 다시 광파라메트릭 방법으로 가시광선 파장영역의 극초단 펄스를 얻는 방법이 있는데, 이는 대규모의 설비 및 장치를 필요로 한다.

The combustion instability analysis of solid propellants is generally done by the simplified governing equations for chemically inert condensed phase region with QSHOD assumption. Since the gas phase and surface reaction layer can be more rapidly relaxed to the external perturbations than the condensed phase, these regions are treated as quasi-steady manner in the analysis. In this paper, the classical ZN(Zeldovic-Novozhilov)approach was re-examined with the presence of radiation augmented burning enhancement in the combustion. Also, the surface reaction was assumed to partially absorb the incident radiant heat fluxes and pass the remaining to the chemically inert condensed phase. As a result of the analysis, the burning rate response function was obtained which consists of a pressure response function and a radiation response function. The response function was shown to be able to predict the results of T-burner tests.

In this study, the effect of alkanolamine additives, 2-amino-2-methyl-1-propanol (AMP) and 2-amino-2-methyl-1,3-propanediol (AMPD) on $CO_2$ absorption rate of $K_2CO_3$ solution and the formation of $KHCO_3$ crystals was investigated. The normalized $CO_2$ flux and the equilibrium $CO_2$ partial pressure were measured for 5 wt% additives and 30 wt% $K_2CO_3$ mixtures using a wetted-wall column unit at $40^{\circ}C$ and $60^{\circ}C$. Both additives showed the increased $CO_2$ absorption rate and lowered the equilibrium $CO_2$ partial pressure acting as promoters. Besides, AMPD which has two hydroxyl groups enhanced the formation of $KHCO_3$ solid product separated from the $CO_2$-rich solution from the results of batch cooling crystallization experiments.

Purpose: We report the results of an external audit on the absorbed dose of radiotherapy beams independently performed by third parties. For this effort, we developed a method to measure the absorbed dose to water in an easy and convenient setup of solid water phantom. Materials and Methods: In 2008, 12 radiotherapy centers voluntarily participated in the external auditing program and 47 beams of X-ray and electron were independently calibrated by the third party’s American Association of Physicists in Medicine (AAPM) task group (TG)-51 protocol. Even though the AAPM TG-51 protocol recommended the use of water, water as a phantom has a few disadvantages, especially in a busy clinic. Instead, we used solid water phantom due to its reproducibility and convenience in terms of setup and transport. Dose conversion factors between solid water and water were determined for photon and electron beams of various energies by using a scaling method and experimental measurements. Results: Most of the beams (74%) were within ${\pm}2%$ of the deviation from the third party's protocol. However, two of 20 X-ray beams and three of 27 electron beams were out of the tolerance (${\pm}3%$), including two beams with a >10% deviation. X-ray beams of higher than 6 MV had no conversion factors, while a 6 MV absorbed dose to a solid water phantom was 0.4% less than the dose to water. The electron dose conversion factors between the solid water phantom and water were determined: The higher the electron energy, the less is the conversion factor. The total uncertainty of the TG-51 protocol measurement using a solid water phantom was determined to be ${\pm}1.5%$. Conclusion: The developed method was successfully applied for the external auditing program, which could be evolved into a credential program of multi-institutional clinical trials. This dosimetry saved time for measuring doses as well as decreased the uncertainty of measurement possibly resulting from the reference setup in water.

This paper presents a computer simulation of five types of triple effect absorption cycles employ-ing the refrigerant absorbent combinations of NH3/LiNO3 low-pressure type NH3/LiNO3+H2O/LiBr binary two-stage type series flow cycle and two types of parallel flow cycle for H2O/LiBr. The absorption systems is investigated through cycle simulation to obtain the system characteristics with the cooling water inlet temperature approach temperature of absorber loss temperature of absorber and chilled water outlet temperature. The most important characteristic temperature of absorber and chilled water outlet temperature. The most important characteristic of NH3/LiNO3 low-pressure type and a NH3/LINO3+H2O/LiBr binary two-stage type is that it obtains a coefficient of performance higher than the sum of the performance coefficients of its part operating independently. As a result of this analysis the optimum designs and operating conditions were determined based on the operating conditions and the coefficient of performance.

Infrared signature of rocket plume plays an important role for detection, recognition, tracking and minimzing for low observability. Infrared signatures of rocket plume with reduced smoke propellant and smokeless propellant are measured. In order to estimate the infrared signature of rocket plume, CFD analysis for flow structure of plume is performed, and layered integration method for estimating of infrared signature is used. Numerical and experimental results were in good agreement. Both propellants had similar infrared signature. Strong peak at $4.3{\mu}m$ region in the experimental results is appeared due to experimental error arising from the calibration procedure.

Primary and secondary amine-based sorbents were synthesized to investigate the operation capacity for the carbon dioxide separation TSA process. (3-Aminopropyl) triethoxysilane was used as a primary amine precursor as a crosslinking agent to synthesize a secondary amine precursor in which amine groups were crosslinked with a crosslinking agent. Carbon dioxide absorbed by primary amines is completely separated above 170 ℃. The working capacity of the primary amine absorbent was less than 2% when regenerated at 130℃. The secondary amine absorbent has a higher carbon dioxide separation capacity at a lower regeneration temperature than the primary amine absorbent. The secondary amine absorbent could predict process operation performance of about 6.5% with 2% carbon dioxide absorption and 100% carbon dioxide regeneration conditions. Therefore, it was found that the working capacity of the secondary amine absorbent was higher than that of the primary amine.

Ultrasonic testing are far superior to other nondestructive tests for detecting the disbond interface which occurred in adhesive interface. However, a solid rocket motor consisting of a steel case, rubber insulation, liner, and propellant poses many difficulties for analyzing ultrasonic waves because of the superposition of reflected waves and large differences in acoustic impedance of various materials. Therefore, ultrasonic tests for detecting the disbond interface in solid rocket motor have been applied in very limited areas between the steel case and rubber insulation using an automatic C-scan system. The existing ultrasonic test cannot detect the disbond interface between the liner and propellant of a solid rocket motor because most of the ultrasonic waves are absorbed in the rubber material which has low acoustic impedance. This problem could be overcome by analyzing the resonance frequency from the frequency spectrum using the ultrasonic resonance method. In this paper, a new technique to detect the disbond interface between the liner and propellant using ultrasonic resonance characteristics is discussed in detail.

에탄올아민 (ETA; Ethanolamine)은 에틸렌옥시드를 진한 암모니아수와 함께 가열하여 얻어지는 물질로 흡수성이 있는 무색의 액체 또는 고체이며 탄소, 질소, 산소로 이루어진 매우 안정된 유기화합물이다. 이러한 ETA는 부식방지제, 산성가스 흡수제, 화장품 등 각종 산업에서 매우 유용하게 사용되는 물질이다. 하지만 ETA는 눈, 피부, 호흡기, 폐 등에 접촉하여 호흡기 질환 및 만성 천식을 유발하고 피부에 자극을 일으키므로 ETA를 제거하기 위한 물리화학적 연구가 필요하다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 냉각온도 및 진공펌프압력에 따른 ETA 응축 특성과, 흡착제에 따른 ETA 흡착특성을 조사하였다. 조사결과 ETA는 냉각수의 온도 및 진공펌프압력에 영향을 받았으며 냉각수 온도 및 진공펌프압력이 증가할수록 응축율은 감소하였다. ETA 흡착에서 활성탄의 경우 액상의 ETA와 상호간에 흡착력은 존재하지 않았으며, 기상의 ETA는 흡착되지만, $100^{\circ}C$이상에서 탈착 반응이 일어났다. 제올라이트의 경우 액상 및 기상의 ETA를 모두 흡착하였다.
