The main objective of this study is to investigate the correlation of chemical structure and cetane number of reformed diesel fuels by ultrasonic irradiation. In order to analyze the effect of the chemical structure and the cetane number of reformed diesel fuels by ultrasonic irradiation, $^1H-NMR$ was used. From the study, following conclusive remarks can be made. 1) BI(=Branch Index), aromatics percentages, and $H_{\alpha}(={\alpha}-methyl$ functional group) of the reformed diesel fuels by ultrasonic irradiation decreased more than those of the conventional diesel fuel. 2) All the cetane numbers which were calculated from carbon type structure and hydrogen type distribution of the reformed diesel fuels increased more than those of the conventional diesel fuel. 3) Using predicated equation of cetane number caculated from carbon type structure is more reasonable than that caculated from hydrogen type distribution 4) BI, aromatics percentages, and $H_{\alpha}$ on both of conventional fuel and reformed diesel fuels by ultrasonic irradiation are inversely proportional to cetane number on these fuels.

In chemistry, the study of sonochemistry is concerned with understanding the effect of sonic waves and wave properties on chemical systems. In the area of chemical kinetics, it has been observed that ultrasound can greatly enhance chemical reactivity in a number of systems by as much as a million-fold. Nano-technology is a super microscopic technology in which structures of 100 nanometers or smaller can be investigated. This technology has been used to develop $TiO_2$ materials and $TiO_2$ devices of that size. Thus far, electrochemistry methods and photochemistry methods have generally been used to create $TiO_2$ nano-size particles. However, these methods are complicated and create pollutants as a by-product. In the present study, nano-scale silver particles (5 nm) were prepared in a sonochemistry method. Sonochemistry deals with mechanical energy that is provided by the collapse of cavitation bubbles that form in solutions during exposure to ultrasound. $TiO_2$ powders 25 nm in size doped with Ag were formed using an ultrasonic sound technique. The experimental results showed the high possibility of removing pollution through the action of a photocatalyst. This powder synthesis technique can be considered as an environmentally friendly powder-forming processing owing to its energy saving characteristics.

The production of hydrogen fuel depends basically on the water electrolysis. The study on the decrease of overpotential which activates the hydrogen production is the core to elevate the hydrogen production efficiency on principle. Characteristics on the overpotential decrease are observed through the micro reaction by ultrasonic in electrolytic cell. For the above, the electrochemical analyzer, i.e., BAS is applied, Experiments with ultrasonic forcing into 4 kinds of solution such as city water, city water plus nitrogen. distilled water, and distilled water plus nitrogen are carried out. And concentrations of KOH are 0%, 10%, 20% and 30%. The basic characteristics of the overpotential decrease are obtained through the analysis by LSV technique in sweep technique. In results, it is clarified that the ultrasonic influences the decrease of overpotential to obtain the efficiency elevation of hydrogen fuel production.

오염화석탄산(pentachlorophenol : PCP)으로 방부 처리된 탄약 목상자를 분해한 목재시료로부터 메탄올, 에탄올, 아세토니트릴을 추출용매로 사용하여 PCP를 추출하였다. 실험변수로는 용매종류, 건조목재 시료당 용매의 사용비율, 시료의 형태 및 크기, 추출온도 및 초음파 효과를 선정하였다. 목재의 PCP 농도는 평균 720 ppm 이었으며 추출효과는 메탄올이 가장 우수하였다. 농도가 가장 큰 시료(초기농도 1297 ppm)를 메탄올로 상온에서 추출한 결과 2시간 이내에 99％까지 제거되었다. 건조시료당 메탄올의 최소 사용비율(v/w)은 10이었으며 이 실험에서 시료의 형상(chip 및 톱밥)이나 추출온도 및 초음파 사용은 PCP 추출에 큰 영향을 미치지 않았다.

Many researchers have studied the effectiveness of ultrasound in chemical and environmental engineering fields including material synthesis, pollutant removal, cleaning, extraction, and disinfection. Acoustic cavitation induced by ultrasound irradiation in aqueous phase can cause various sonophysical and sonochemical reactions without any chemicals. However most of the previous studies focused only on the relationships between ultrasonic conditions and the results of sonochemical reactions in lab-scale sonoreactors. As a results of this, only a few studies have been devoted to design and optimization of industrial scale sonoreactors. In this study, the effect of the distance between two opposite transducer modules on sonochemical reactions was investigated in single and dual irradiation systems (334 kHz) for four distances including 50, 100, 150, and 200 mm using KI dosimetry. It was found that the dual irradiation systems provided higher performance in terms of the zeroth reaction coefficient and the cavitation yield compared to the single irradiation systems. The sonochemiluminescence (SCL) images for the visualization of the cavitation field showed that cavitation active zone was larger and sonochemical reaction intensity was much higher in the dual irradiation system than in the single irradiation system.

계면활성제(polyvinylpyrrolidone, PVP)와 개시제(benzoyl peroxide, BPO)를 95% 알코올을 용매 속에 첨가하여 styrene monomer로부터 나노 크기의 균일한 분포 영역을 갖는 polystyrene (PS)을 제조하였다. Emulsion polymerization방법을 사용하였으므로 중합과정에서 PS입도 크기에 많은 변수가 영향을 미칠 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 단량체, 계면활성제 및 개시제 등의 농도 영향은 배제하고 가장 큰 변수들로 고려되는 교반 속도와 초음파 조사시간의 영향을 주로 연구하였다. 초음파 조사시간을 조절한 결과 400 nm의 나노 크기를 갖는 PS 입자를 제조할 수 있었다.

Since the typical horn-type ultrasonic equipment induces a reaction at the probe tip, the sonochemical reaction has a limitation that it occurs only in a specific area. As one of the ways to overcome this limitation, an ultrasonic device with multi-stepped horn equipped with several oscillators has been developed. The objective of this study was to investigate the sonochemical effects induced by acoustic cavitation system in 20 kHz multi-stepped ultrasonic horn using calorimetry, KI dosimetry and the luminol test. The sonochemical effects of multi-stepped ultrasonic horn were compared with that of the typical horn-type 20 kHz ultrasonic device. The effect of immersion depth and power on the sonochemical reaction was investigated in the ultrasonic system with multi-stepped ultrasonic horn. Higher calorimetric energy was obtained at higher immersion depth and power conditions. Sonochemical effects increased significantly when using the high immersion depth and input power. However, as the input power increased, the cavitation reaction zone concentrated around the ultrasonic horn. Additionally, the experiments to examine the effect of liquid temperature was conducted. The smaller sonochemical reaction was obtained for the higher liquid temperature. The effect on temperature seems to be closely related to liquid conditions such as viscosity and vapor pressure of water.

부영양화로 인한 조류의 과도한 번식은 하천과 호수의 수질에 심각한 문제를 야기하고 있다. 따라서 하천과 호수의 수질 오염 방지를 위해서는 물리화학적 또는 생물학적 처리를 통해 효과적인 조류 제거가 필요하다. 본 연구에서는 전기부상과 혐기성 수소 발효 공정의 연계를 통해 효과적인 조류 제거와 에너지를 생산하고자 하였다. Chlorophyll a를 기준으로 전기부상에 의한 조류 제거효율은 전류 증가에 따라 증가하였으며 최대 95.9%로 나타났다. 제거된 조류로부터 에너지를 회수하기 위하여 혐기성 수소 발효 타당성을 조사하였다. 조류와 초음파로 전처리를 수행한 조류의 최종 수소 수율은 각각 17.3및 61.1ml $H_2/g$ dcw(dry cell weight)로 나타났다. 조류의 초음파 전처리는 가수분해 속도를 증가시켜 최대 수소 수율을 3.4배 향상시키는 것으로 나타났다.
