MFL (Magnetic flux leakage) type nondestructive testing has been used for inspection of underground gas pipelines to find metal defects by detecting magnetic leakage signal. Because the underground gas pipeline is exposed by environment such as high pressure with great humidity, external defects are easily formed on the surface of pipelines and they are being grouped respectively. These adjacent defects cause the signal distortion of leakage flux so that it is hard to estimate the shape information of defects. In this paper, we performed to study of the signal distortion and compensating method for multiple defects in MFL type nondestructive testing system by using 3D FEM simulation. This paper proposes the basic algorithm of defect signal analysis on multiple defects on the surface of 30 inch diameter pipeline.

Stable operation of semiconductor devices is needed even at high temperatures. Among the structures of semiconductor devices, the area that can cause unstable electrical responses at high temperatures is the contact layer between the metal and the semiconductor. In this study, the effect of annealing conditions included in the process of forming a contact layer of nickel silicide(NiSix) on a p-type SiC layer on the specific contact resistance of the contact layer and the total resistance between the metal and the semiconductor was investigated. To this end, a series of electrodes for TLM (transfer length method) measurements were patterned on the 4 inch p-type SiC layer under conditions of changing annealing temperature of 1700 and 1800 ℃ and annealing time of 30 and 60 minutes. As a result, it was confirmed that the annealing conditions affect the resistance of the contact layer and the electrical stability of the device.

Rapid industrialization with growing population leads to environmental water pollution. Demand in generation of clean water from waste water is ever increasing by scarcity of rain water due to change in weather pattern. Colorimetric detection of heavy metal present in clean water is very simple and effective technique. In this review membrane based colorimetric detection of mercury (II) ions are discussed in details. Membrane such as cellulose, polycaprolactone, chitosan, polysulfone etc., are used as support for metal ion detection. Nanofiber based materials have wide range of applications in energy, environment and biomedical research. Membranes made up of nanofiber consist up plenty of functional groups available in the polymer along with large surface area and high porosity. As a result, it is easy for surface modification and grafting of ligand on the fiber surface enhanced nanoparticles attachment.

In this paper, we develop 'the Danger Map' of a workplace to identify risk and harmful factors by analyzing images of each process within the manufacturing plant site using artificial intelligence (AI). We proposed a system that automatically derives 'the risk and safety levels' based on the frequency and intensity derived from this Danger Map in accordance with actual field conditions and applies them to similar manufacturing industries. In particular, in the traditional evaluation method of manually evaluating the risk of a workplace using Excel, the risk level for each risk and harmful factor acquired from the video is automatically calculated and evaluated to ensure safety through the system and calculate the safety level, so that the company can take appropriate actions accordingly. and measures were prepared. To automate safety calculation and evaluation, 'Heinrich's law' was used as a model, and a 5X4 point evaluation scale was calculated for risky behavior patterns. To demonstrate this system, we applied it to a casting factory and were able to save 2 people the time and labor required to calculate safety each month.

Korean energy use in industrial sector has increased more rapidly than other sectors during 1980~2000 periods. Relatively higher increases in industrial sector energy consumption raise questions whether government policy of rationalization of industrial energy use has been effective. In this study, we use 80-85-90 and 90-95-00 constant price input-output table to analyze increases in industrial energy use. Using an adjusted version of structural decomposition model introduced by Chen and Rose (1990), we decompose Changes of energy use into 17 elements. We classify entire industry sector into 32 sectors including four energy sectors (coal and coal products, refined petroleum, electricity and town gas). We then analyze changes of energy use by industrial level to check differences among industrial energy demand structures. Finally, we compare three industries, electronic product manufacturing, metal manufacturing and construction, that represent technology and capital intensive, energy and material intensive and labor and capital intensive industry. As results, we find that high energy using industries make the most effort to reduce energy use. Primary metal, petrochemical and mon-metal industries show improvements in elements such as energy and material productivity, energy and material imports, energy substitution and material substitutions towards energy saving. These results imply that although those industries are heavy users of energy, they put the best effort to reduce energy use relative to other industries. We find various patterns of change in industrial energy use at industrial level. To reduce energy use, electronic product manufacturing industry needs more effort to improve technological change element while construction industry needs more effort to improve material input structure element.

BACKGROUND: Heavy metal adsorption not only depends on rapid cooling slag(RCS) characteristics but also on the nature of the metals involved and on their competitive behavior for RCS adsorption sites. The goal of this study was to investigate the competitive absorption characteristics of Cu, Cd and Zn in single- and multi-metal forms by RCS.METHODS AND RESULTS: Both single- and multi-metal adsorption experiments were conducted to determine the adsorption characteristics of RCS for the heavy metals. Adsorption behaviors of the heavy metals by RCS were evaluated using both the Freundlich and Langmuir adsorption isotherm equations. The maximum adsorption capacities of metals by RCS were in the order of Cu(16.6 mg/g) > Cd(8.1 mg/g) > Zn(6.2 mg/g) in the single-metal adsorption isotherm and Cu(14.5 mg/g) >> Zn(1.3 mg/g) > Cd(0.6 mg/g) in the multi-metal adsorption isotherm. Based on data obtained from Freundlich and Langmuir adsorption models and three-dimensional simulation, multi-metal adsorption behaviors differed from single- metal adsorption due to competition. Cadmium and Zn were easily exchanged and substituted by Cu during multi-metal adsorption.CONCLUSION: Results from adsorption experiments indicate that competitive adsorption among metals increases the mobility of these metals.

기원전 5000년 이집트에서부터 시작된 도금은 시간이 지남에 따라 점점 발전하여, 1900년대에 들어 전기를 이용한 도금공정이 개발되었고, 현재 뿌리산업으로써 각종 제조업에 널리 이용되고 있다. 도금 공정은 금속을 부식으로부터 보호하고, 제품의 심미성과 기능성, 생산성 등을 높이기 위해 주로 이용된다. 전주도금 공정은 완벽하게 동일한 형태의 생산품을 다량으로 제작 할 수 있기 때문에, 그 높은 생산성으로 주목 받고 있다. 특히, 나노/마이크로 크기의 정밀 소자 등을 가공하는 차세대 기술인 LIGA공정과 접목이 가능하다는 장점이 있다. 몰드를 이용하여 복제하는 방식인 전주 도금은 도금공정이 끝난 후 몰드와 완성된 제품을 분리해내는 추가공정이 필연적으로 발생하게 되는데, 둘 사이의 접착력을 낮추기 위하여 몰드의 표면에 이형박리제를 도포하게 된다. 이형박리제로는 전기가 잘 흐르면서 접착력이 낮은 이산화 셀렌이나 중크롬산이 주로 이용되지만, 원활한 박리를 위해서는 그 두께가 30 um 이상 확보되어야 하기 때문에 정밀한 미세구조 전주도금이 어렵다는 문제점이 있다. 또한 이와 같은 화학 약품들은 매우 유독하기 때문에 추가적인 폐수 처리 공정이 필요하며, 작업자의 안전을 위협하고 심각한 환경 오염을 초래한다는 추가적인 문제가 발생한다. 따라서, 매우 얇고 친 환경적이며 안전한 전주도금 이형박리제에 대한 연구가 요구되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 전주도금 몰드로 사용한 구리의 표면에 TCVD를 이용하여 단일 층 그래핀을 성장시킨 후, 그래핀이 코팅된 몰드에 구리를 전주도금하여 박리하였다. 박리 후 그래핀은 몰드에 손상 없이 남아있는 것을 Raman microscopy를 통해서 확인하였고, 몰드와 그래핀 사이의 접착력 (약 $0.71J/m^2$)에 비해 그래핀과 전주도금 샘플간에 낮은 접착력 (약 $0.52J/m^2$)을 갖는 것을 확인하였다. 이와 같이 낮은 접착력을 통해 박리 시 표면구조의 손상 없이 정밀한 구조의 미세 패턴구조를 형성할 수 있었다. 전주도금을 이용한 전극 형성과 고분자와의 융합을 통해 유연기판을 제작하여 bending 실험을 진행하였다. $90^{\circ}$의 bending 각도로 10000회 이하에서는 저항의 변화가 없었고, LED chip을 mounting한 후 곡률반경 4.5 mm까지 bending을 진행하여도 이상 없이 LED가 발광하는 것을 확인하였다. 위와 같은 전주도금 공정을 이용하여 고집적 전자기기, 광학기기, 센서기기 등의 다양한 어플리케이션의 부품제조에 활용될 수 있을 것으로 기대한다.

Micro gas sensor with single electrode was proposed for improving stability and sensitivity. Generally, metal oxide gas sensors have two electrodes for heating and sensing. This fabricated new type sensor have only a single electrode by forming a sensing material onto heating electrode. Pt as a heating and sensing electrode was sputtered on glass substrate and a $SnO_2$ sensing material was thermally evaporated on Pt electrode. $SnO_2$ was patterned by lift-off process and then thermally oxidized in $O_2$ condition for 1 hr., $600^{\circ}C$. The size of fabricated sensor was $1.9{\times}2.1\;mm^2$. As a result of CO gas sensing characteristics, this sensor showed 100 mV change for 1,000 ppm and linearity for wide range($0{\sim}10,000\;ppm$) of gas concentrations. And the sensor shows a good recovery characteristics of 1% deviation compared to initial resistance.

A gap between a $Al_2O_3/Fe$ thermite and lower head vessel is formed in the lower-plenum arrested vessel attack(LAVA) experiment which is the 1st phase study of simulation of naturally arrested vessel attack in vessel(SONATA-IV). The gap measurement using a conventional ultrasonic method would be lack of a reliability due to the structure complexity and the metallurgical grain size change of the lower head HAZ occurred by a thermite $Al_2O_3/Fe$ melt or a $Al_2O_3$ melt at $2300^{\circ}C$. The grain echoes having false signals and lower S/N ratio signals are detected due to a multiple scattering, a mode conversion and an attenuation of a ultrasonic resulted from at the interface of increased grain size zone. In this test, the signals pattern was classified to understand the behavior of the ultrasonic in a multi-layer specimen of solid-liquid-solid of assuming that the thermite and the lower head vessel is immersed. The polarity threshold algorithm of frequency diversity gives us the enhancement about 6dB of the ratio S/N.
