The etching solution for slimming of glass substrates was manufactured and HF was used as the main ingredient of wet etching solutions. Various types of strong acids such as HCl, HNO₃, H₂SO₄, amino acids and carboxylic acids such as citric acid, and etched solutions, respectively, were used to measure the etching rates and changes in surface shape of the glass. Regardless of the type of strong acids, the etching rate of the glass increased linearly as the added amount increased, and the sludge removal effect of the glass surface was also shown. The etching solution containing HCl showed more efficient results than other strong acids in the etching rate and the effect of removing sludge. The addition of carboxylic acid did not significantly affect the variation of etching rate, but had the effect of removing sludge. However, if amino acids were added, changes in etching rate and sludge removal were not significant.

A bacterium was isolated from soils in Suwon, Korea for the purpose of H$_2$S removal using a biofilter system. The isolate was gram-negative, rod-shaped, catalase-positive, motile, and the isolated bacterium showed a positve in utilizing energy sources including citrate, mannitol, sucrose, fructors, and trehalsoe. Based on its biochemical characteristics it was identified as Burkholderia(Pseudomonas) cepacia. The growth rate of the bacterium in thiosulfate medium with yeast extract was 0.15 hr$\^$-1/ and generation time was 4.6 hr. The cell productivity was 8.05 mg/L$.$h and the isolate grew logarithmically up to 12 hr. The maximum rate of sulfur oxidation was 0.18 g-S/L$.$h. The optimum pH and temperature for the growth of the bacterium were 7.0 and 30$\^{C}$, respectively. The pH range for the growth of B. cepacia was 5.0-8.0. The oxidation rate of thiosulfate was lowered by a substrate thiosulfate when the concentration was higher than 0.12 M. both growth rate and sulfur oxidation rate of Burkholderia(Pseudomonas) cepacia was enhanced about 1.5 times with the addition of 0.2% yeast extract. The removal of hydrogen sulfide was investigated by immobilized B. cepacia with Ca-alginate. The maximum rate removal for H$_2$S was 6.25 g$.$㎤ $.$h$\^$-1/ when 12 L/h of flow rate was supplied. From this study suggest the immobilized B. cepacia could have a potential for H$_2$S removal.

An experimental study on the characteristics of a dewatering due to vacuum evaporation in the waste lubrication oil were performed using a lab scale system. Evaporation characteristics were investigated for various performance factors. Results of evaporation characteristics as a function of vacuum pressure, oil temperature, initial water concentration, and nozzle type were obtained. Increasing the oil temperature and altering the nozzle type were found to increase the evaporation rate without increasing vacuum pressure requirement. The best performance is achieved for the nozzle which made porous material.

In this paper we propose a shift-invariant uHMT estimation for wavelet-based image denoising. The proposed estimation have just nine meta-parameter (independent of the size of the image and the number of wavelet scales) and requires no kinds of training. Also it solve visual artifacts resulted in the lack of shift-invariance in the DWT. The experimental results show that the proposed estimation is more effective than the other wavelet-based denoising by 0.5-ldB (PSNR) and allows an Ο(nlog n) in terms of performance speed.

This study was carried out to investigate the settling characteristics of Fe(II) and Fe(III) hydroxide precipitates formed by pH adjustment of aqueous solution to remove ferrous and ferric ion in waste water. The results obstained in this study are as fellows : The settling rate was effectively increased with increasing the pH values of aqueous solution regulated by CaO and with increasing the amount of flocculant, on the other hand, application of excess flocculants decreased the settling rate. It is desirable that the concentration of iron ion is kept under $10^{-2}$ mol/ㅣ because the settling rate was decreased with increasing the concentration of iron hydroxide precipitates.

This paper presents an improved clutter signal removal algorithm using Singular Value Decomposition(SVD). For indoor positioning system using IR-UWB Radar, the target signal is extracted from received signal. We use clutter signal removal algorithm using SVD for target signal extraction. Clutter signal removal algorithm using SVD has the advantage of operation but the disadvantage of high computational complexity. In this paper, we propose a method to improve computational complexity. As the experimental results, it is confirmed that the method presented in this paper improve the computational complexity of clutter removal algorithm using SVD.

The principle of vortex cyclone was applied to enhance the treatment efficiency of waste air streams containing particulate matters, phenol, and others. Adsorption, condensation, and/or coagulation could be induced at low temperature zone formed by Joule-Thomson expansion as the pressurized air and pulverized activated carbon were introduced at the tangential direction into the cyclone system applied with the coaxial funnel tube of vortex cyclone. Easily condensible vapors were adsorbed and/or condensed forcibly on coagulated or condensed materials which were formed as cores for coagulation or condensation by themselves or on pulverized activated carbons. These types of coagulation or condensation rates were rapidly promoted by increase in their diameter. The maximum removal efficiency obtained from this experiment for the removal of carbon dioxide and phenol was about 87.3 and 93.8 percent, respectively. Phenol removal efficiency was increased with the relative humidities and enhanced by pulverized activated carbon added. The Joule-Thomson coefficients were increased with the pressure of air injected in the range of the relative humidities between 10% and 50%. It is believed that the moisture, particulate matters, and the pressure of the process air introduced could control the removal efficiency of VOCs.

Image deblurring aims to remove image blur, which can be generated while shooting the pictures by the movement of objects, camera shake, blurring of focus, and so forth. With the rise in popularity of smartphones, it is common to carry portable digital cameras daily, so image deblurring techniques have become more significant recently. Originally, image deblurring techniques have been studied using traditional optimization techniques. Then with the recent attention on deep learning, deblurring methods based on convolutional neural networks have been actively proposed. However, most of them have been developed while focusing on better performance. Therefore, it is not easy to use in real situations due to the speed of their algorithms. To tackle this problem, we propose a novel deep learning-based deblurring algorithm that can be operated in real-time on HD resolution. In addition, we improved the training and inference process and could increase the performance of our model without any significant effect on the speed and the speed without any significant effect on the performance. As a result, our algorithm achieves real-time performance by processing 33.74 frames per second at 1280×720 resolution. Furthermore, it shows excellent performance compared to its speed with a PSNR of 29.78 and SSIM of 0.9287 with the GoPro dataset.

This study was conducted to investigate removal characteristics for Synedra sp. and filter run time (FRT) according to the cell length in the Nakdong River. When used alone flocculent, the removal efficiency for Synedra tenera (around $100{\mu}m$) was constant with 90.9~94.4%, while Synedra acus (around $300{\mu}m$) had the lower removal efficiency as 60~70%. $PACS_2$ and PAC showed 5~6% higher removal for S. acus than others (HiB and LAS). When added coagulant aid, loess had no effect and also needed more amount of flocculent. Sodium Silicate increased the removal rate by max 10.6%. On the other hand, 2.5 mg/L of Polyamine showed 96.9% removal efficiency for S. acus increasing up to 25% more than $PACS_2$ alone. In the effect of water temperature, the removal for S. acus at $15^{\circ}C$ were 6% higher than at $4^{\circ}C$. There was no significant correlation between the removal efficiencys of turbidity and S. acus. The results of this study was similar to the actual water treatment process's removal characteristics for Synedra sp. depending on the cell length and temperature. In the actual process, the numbers of Synedra in settled water was established natural logarithm function with the filter run time (FRT), so we can predict FRT as Synedra numbers.
