To enhance the performance of anode-supported SOFC, single cell fabrication procedure was changed for better and resulting power generating characteristics of single cell were investigated. Liquid condensation process was employed for the granulation of NiO/YSZ powder mixture and the produced powder granules were compacted into anode green substrate by uni-axial pressing. YSZ electrolyte was printed on green substrate via screen-printing method and co-fired at 1400$^{\circ}C$ for 3 h. LSM/YSZ composite cathode of which the composition and heat treatment condition was adjusted to minimize the polarization#resistance with AC-impedance spectroscopy, was screen printed. The final single cell size from this multi-step procedure was 5${\times}$5 $\textrm{cm}^2$ and 10${\times}$10 $\textrm{cm}^2$. The maximum power densities of 5${\times}$5 and 10${\times}$10 single cells were about 0.45 W/$\textrm{cm}^2$ and 0.22 W/$\textrm{cm}^2$ at 800$^{\circ}C$, which are two times superior than those from single cells fabricated by the conventional process in previous our work.

$Pb(NO_3)_2$, $Mg(NO_3)_2$ and $NbCl_5$ were used as starting materials and made into solutions. For $Pb(Mg_{1/3}Nb_{2/3})O_3$ composition, each solution measured was mixed and heated to $70^{\circ}C$ to resolved $PbCl_2$ precipitated at lower temperature coprecipitates were formed by adding oxine and ammonia gas under pH ranging 8 to 10, and the prepared coprecipitates were filtered and washed by distilled water. The $Pb(Mg_{1/3}Nb_{2/3})O_3$ powders were synthesized by calcination of coprecipitates at the temperature range of $700^{\circ}C$ to $1000^{\circ}C$, for 5hr. The average particle size of the synthesized powders showing spherical shape was $0.3{{\mu}m}$. The powders were formed to make pellets under pressure of $2000Kg/cm^2$, and the formed pellets were sintered at the temperature range of 1100 to $1200^{\circ}C$, for 5hr. The speciman sintered at $1200^{\circ}C$ showed theoretical density of 97.4%, dielectric constatnt of 17000 at 1kHz, and dielectric loss of 0.02% at 1kHz

In this paper, ozonizer using U-type lamp(Olamp) has been designed and manufactured, which can perform a role of lighting source and ozonizer by using photo and chemical methods. The discharge, spectrum, illuminance, ozone concentration, ozone generation, ozone yield and sterilization characteristics of Olamp have been studied. The important conclusions obtained from this paper can be summa'||'&'||'not;rized as follows. As a result of spectrum characteristics for Olamp, ultraviolet ray of a short wave'||'&'||'not;lengths and a visible ray are radiated. The illuminance of Olamp was found to be useful for "color distinctive and intermittent works in the dark working spaces" in accordance with KS A 3011. The ozone concentration of gaseous phase is inversely proportional to quality of supplied gas. Also, ozone conce tration and generation of gaseous phase are rised more commercial oxygen gas than those trial air gas for constant quality of supplied gas. Ozone generation and ozone yield of gaseous phase are proportion'||'&'||'not;al to ozone concentration of gaseous phase. The characteristics of liquid ozone concentration at distilled water are proportional to circulating velocity of fermentation chamber and ozone concentration of gas'||'&'||'not;eous phase. As a result, the sterilization characteristics of Escherichia coli have been obtained more than 97[ % J.

This study was conducted to investigate the effects of the cropping system of forage crops and application of cattle slurry on productivity of forage crops and soil fertility. The field experiments were conducted on the silt clay loam at Gongiam, Kwangju, Kyung-gi province in Korea for two years. This study was arranged in split plot design with three replicates. Main plots were the cropping systems, such as single crop and mixed crops. Subplots were the application rate of cattle slurry, such as 0, 150 and 300 kg N/ha. The yields of dry matter (DM) and nitrogen (N) were hardly influenced by the cropping system, whereas DM and N yields enhanced as increasing the rates of cattle slurry application (p<0.05). The contents of crude protein (CP) and total digestible nutrients (TDN) were hardly influenced by the cropping system, whereas CP content increased as increasing the rates of cattle slurry application (p<0.05). TDN was not differentially influenced by cattle slurry application. Neutral detergent fiber (NDF) and acid detergent fiber (ADF) contents were hardly influenced by the cropping system and application of cattle slurry. Organic matter (OM) content in soil samples collected at the end of the experiment were remarkably higher than those in the beginning of the experiment. The OM content of soil was significantly increased by application of cattle slurry (p<0.05).

Perchlorate contamination in aquatic system is a growing concern due to the human health and ecological risks associated with perchlorate exposure. In spite of potential risks associated with perchlorate, drinking water standard has not been established worldwide. Recently, US EPA has issued new protective guidance for cleaning up perchlorate contamination with a preliminary clean-up goal of 24.5 ppb. In Korea, the drinking water standard and discharge standard for perchlorate has not been established yet and little information is available to address perchlorate problems. Perchlorate treatment technologies include ion exchange, microbial reactor, carbon adsorption, composting, in situ bioremediation, permeable reactive barrier, phytoremediation, and membrane technology. The process description, capability, and advantage/disadvantages of each technology were described in detail in this review. One of recent trends in perchlorate treatment is the combination of available treatment options such as combined microbial reduction and permeable reactive burier. In this review, we provided a brief perspective on perchlorate treatment technology and to identify an efficient and cost-effective approach to manage perchlorate problem.

In the present study, the possibility of recovering and recycling the silicon carbide(SiC) from a silicon sludge by removing Fe and Si impurities was investigated. Si and SiC were separated from the silicon sludge using centrifugation. The separated SiC concentrate consisted of Fe, Si and SiC, in which Fe and Si were removed to recover the pure SiC. Leaching with acid/alkali solution was compared with the vapor-phase chlorination. The Fe concentration removed in the SiC was 49 ppm, and it was separated by leaching with 1 M HCl solution at $80^{\circ}C$ for 1 h. The Si concentration removed in the SiC was 860 ppm, and it was separated by leaching with 1M NaOH solution at $50^{\circ}C$ for 1 h. The SiC concentrate was chlorinated in a tubular reactor, 2.4 cm in diameter and 32 cm in length. The boat filled with SiC concentrate was located at the midpoint of the alumina tube, then, the chlorine and nitrogen gas mixture was introduced. The Fe and Si concentration removed in the SiC were 48 ppm and 405 ppm, respectively, at $500^{\circ}C$ reactor temperature, 4 h reaction time, 300 cc/min gas flow rate, and 10% $Cl_2$ gas mole fraction.

The Mo(V) $di-\mu-oxo$ type $(Mo_2O_4(H_2O)_2L)$ complexes $(L:\;C_3H_7CH(SCH_2COOH)_2,\;C_6H_5CH(SCH_2COOH)_2,\;CH_3OC_6H_4CH(SCH_2COOH)_2,\;C_5H_{10}C(SCH_2COOH)_2,\;C_3H_7C(CH_3)(SCH_2COOH)_2,\;C_3H_7CH(SCH_2CH_2COOH)_2,\;C_6H_5CH(SCH_2CH_2COOH)_2)$ have been prepared by the reaction of $[Mo_2O_4(H_2O)_6]^{2+}$ with a series of dithiodicarboxy ligands. These complexes are completed by two terminal oxygens arranged trans to one another and each ligand forms a chelate type between two molybdenum. In $Mo_2O_4(H_2O)_2L$, two $H_2O$ coordinated at trans site of terminal oxygens. The prepared complexes have been characterized by elemental analysis, infrared spectra, electronic spectra, and nuclear magnetic resonance spectra. In the potential range -0.00 V to -1.00 V at a scan rate of 20 $mVs^{-1}$, a cathodic peak at -0.50∼-0.58 V (vs. SCE) and an anodic peak at -0.40∼-0.43 V (vs. SCE) have been observed in aquous solution. The ratio of the cathodic to anodic current ($I_{pc}/I_{pa}$) is almost 1, we infer that redox is reversible reaction.

The effect of ${Y_2}{O_3}$ as a sintering additive on thermal conductivity and microstructure of pressureless sintered AIN ceramics was investigated at sintering temperature range from 1,700 to $1,900^{\circ}C$. ${Y_2}{O_3}$ added AIN specimens showed higher densification rate than pure AIN because of the formation of the yttrium aluminates secondary phase by reaction of ${Y_2}{O_3}$ and ${Al_2}{O_3}$ of AIN surface. The thermal conductivity of AIN specimens was promoted by the addition of ${Y_2}{O_3}$ in spite of the formation of secondary phase in AIN gram boundaries and grain boundary triple junction, because ${Y_2}{O_3}$ addition could reduced the oxygen contents in AIN lattice which is primary factor of thermal conductivity. The them1al conductivity of AIN specimens was promoted by increasing sintering time because the increases of average grain size and the elimination of secondary phases from the grain boundary due to the evaporation. Particularly. the thermal conductivity of AIN specimen sintered at $1,900^{\circ}C$ for 5 hours improved over 20 %. $141\;Wm^{-1}K^{-1}$, compared with the specimen sintered at $1,900^{\circ}C$ for 1 hour.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of V₂O/sub 5/ addition on physical and magnetic properties of NiCuZn ferrite for multi-layer chip inductors. NiCuZn ferrite pastes doped with 0, 0.1, 0.3 and 0.5 wt% V₂O/sub 5/ were prepared and samples of ferrite sheets were prepared by the screen printing method. They were sintered at 870, 880, 890 and 900℃, and then their physical and magnetic properties were analyzed. After sintering at 870℃, the sintered density of the ferrite sheet doped with 0.5wt% V₂O/sub 5/ showed the highest value to 5.08g/cm³due to the best densification by the liquid phase sintering, while the microstructures of ferrite sheets doped with 0.1 and 0.3 wt% V₂O/sub 5/ showed and inhibited grain growth. Irrespective of the sintering temperature, the initial permeability of ferrite sheet doped with 0.5 wt% V₂O/sub 5/ was highest and after sintering beyond 880℃, the quality factor of 0.3 wt% V₂O/sub 5/-doped sample appeared to be highest.
