본 연구는 절연유가 금속 파이프 중을 통과할 때 흐르는 유동전류 특성에 대하여 실험적으로 규명하였다. 유동전류는 파이프 길이, 절연유의 속도 및 온도에 따라 변하는 것이 관측되는데 파이프 길이가 4-6cm부근에서 피이크치가 나타나고 유속의 증가에 따라서는 선형적으로 증가하며 그리고 유의 온도가 약 50.deg.C 부근에서 또한 피이크가 나타나고 있다. 절연유에 전하를 주입시키는 수단으로 코로나 방전을 이용하였으며 부코로나 대전된 절연유의 유동전류가 코로나 대전 시키지 않은 절연유나 정코로나 대전된 절연유의 것보다 큰 값이 관측되었다. 이 결과로부터 고체 액체 접촉시 액체중의 음이온이 화학 포텐셜에 의하여 고체 표면에 흡착된다는 사실과 유동전류의 방향 및 발생기구를 해석할 수 있다.

Titanium mesoporous materials have received increasing attention as a new photocatalyst in the field for photocatalytic degradation of organic compounds. The photocatalytic degradation of chlorothalonil by mesoporous titanium oxo-phoswhate (Ti-MCM) was investigated in aqueous suspension for comparison with $TiO_2$, (Degussa, P25) using as an effective photocatalyst of organic pollutants. Mesoporous form of titanium Phosphate has been prepared by reaction of sulfuric acid and titanium isopropoxide in the presence or n-hexadecyltrimethylammonium bromide. The XRD patterns of Ti-MCM are hexagonal phases with d-spacings of 4.1 nm. Its adsorption isotherm for chlorothalonil reached at reaction equilibrium within 60 min under dark condition with 28% degradation efficiency. The degradation ratio of chlorothalonil after 9 hours under the UV radiation condition (254 nm) exhibited 100% by Ti-MCM and 88% by $TiO_2$. However, these degradation kinetics in static state showed a slow tendency compared to that of stirred state because of a low contact between titanium matrices and chlorothalonil. Also, degradation efficiency of chlorothalonil was increased with decreasing initial concentration and with increasing pH of solution. As results of this study, it was clear that mesoporous titanium oxo-phosphate with high surface area and crystallinity could be used to photo- catalytic degradation of various organic pollutants.

반도체 생산공정에서 CMP (Chemical-mechanical planarization) 공정은 우수한 전기전도성 재료인 Cu의 사용과 다층구조의 소자를 형성하기 위해서 도입되었으며, 최근 소자의 집적도가 증가함에 따라 CMP 공정 비중은 점점 높아지고 있다. Cu CMP 공정에서 연마제인 슬러리는 금속 표면과의 물리적 화학적 반응을 동시에 사용하여 표면을 연마하게 되며, 연마특성을 향상시키기 위해 산화제, 부식방지제, 분산제 및 다양한 계면활성제가 첨가된다. 하지만 슬러리는 Cu 표면을 평탄화하는 동시에 오염입자, 유기오염물, 스크레치, 표면부식 등을 발생시키며 결과적으로 소자의 결함을 야기시킨다. 특히 부식방지제로 사용되는 BTA (Benzotriazole)은 Cu CMP 공정 중 Cu-BTA 형태로 표면에 흡착되어 오염원으로 작용하며 입자오염을 증가시시고 건조공정에서 물반점 등의 표면 결함을 발생시킨다. 이러한 문제점을 해결하기 위해 Cu 표면에서 식각과 부식반응을 최소화하며, 오염입자 제거 및 유기오염물을 효과적으로 제거하기 위한 Post-CMP 세정 공정과 세정액 개발이 요구된다. 본 연구에서는 오염입자 및 유기물 제거와 동시에 표면 거칠기와 부식현상을 제어할 수 있는 post Cu CMP 세정액을 개발 평가하였다. 오염입자 및 유기오염물을 제거하기 위해서 염기성 용액인 TMAH 사용하였으며, Cu 이온을 용해할 수 있는 Chelating agent와 표면 부식을 억제하는 부식 방지제를 사용하여 세정액을 합성하였다. 접촉각 측정과 FESEM(field Emission Scanning Electron Microscope) 분석을 통하여 CMP 공정에서 발생하는 유기오염물과 오염입자의 흡착과 제거를 확인하였으며 Cu 웨이퍼 세정 전후의 표면 거칠기의 변화와 식각량을 AFM(Atomic Force Microscope)과 4-point probe를 사용하여 각각 평가하였다. 또한 세정액 내에서의 연마입자의 zeta-potential을 측정 및 조절하여 세정력을 향상시켰다. 개발된 세정액과 Cu 표면에서의 화학반응 및 부식방지력은 potentiostat를 이용한 전기화학 분석법을 통해서 chelating agent와 부식방지제의 농도를 최적화 시켰다. 개발된 세정액을 적용함으로써 Cu-BTA 형태의 유기오염물과 오염입자들이 효과적으로 제거됨을 확인하였다.

To overcome the flux reduction due to the fouling by adsorption of foulants onto the porous hydrophobic polyethylene membrane surface, the oxyflorination was introduced to hydrophilize the hydrophobic membranes. After the hydrophilization through oxyfluorination, the contact angle decreased from $93^{\circ}$ to $50^{\circ}$ while the water flux increased to 60%. It was considered that for the model foulants dissolved in water, such as albumin (form bovine serum, BSA), humic acid sodium salt (HA), and alginic acid sodium salt (SA), the flux was enhanced since the adsorbed foulants decreased by the oxyfluorination. Particularly, it was obtained that the water flux was over twice more than the untreated polyethylene membrane in case of SA foulant.

The effects of carbon black on the electrodes performance and on the structure of the catalyst layer in Raney nickel hydrogen electrodes for alkaline fuel cells were investigated by using electrochemical and nitrogen adsorption methods. The optimum content of carbon black in the catalyst layer of Raney nickel hydrogen electrode was 2wt%. The limiting current density was increased by the addition of carbon black due to the enlargement of gas-liquid interface area. The rate determining step at the limiting current density was supposed to be a step where hydrogen dissolves at gas-liquid interfaces.

Superhydrophilic thin film consisted of positively charged poly (allylamine hydrochloride) (PAH) and negatively charged poly (acrylic acid) (PAA) was fabricated by a layer-by-layer (LBL) self-assembly. Glutaraldehyde (GA) was used in order to increase an adhesion hardness by amine-aldehyde reaction. The surface morphology, thickness, transmittance, water contact angle and adhesion hardness of PAH/PAA thin film with or without GA were measured. The adhesion hardness of PAH/PAA thin film with GA deposition increased over 2 times although the film thickness of PAH/GA/PAA decreased than that of PAH/PAA thin film. The increase of adhesion hardness by amine-aldehyde reaction between PAH and GA was measured by fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy. Fabricated PAH/PAA and PAH/GA/PAA thin films showed water contact angel under $5^{\circ}$ and high transmittance over 91.3% at 550 nm.

This study was conducted for the two purposes; one was removal of dissolved humic acid, the well-known precursor of trihalomethanes (THMs), by physicochemical treatment processes such as ozone oxidation, coagulation and activated carbon adsorption. The other was qualitative identification of by-products in chlorination of the dissolved humic acid. When ozone oxidation was applied to remove the dissolved humic acid, pH was abruptly decreased. It was indicated that humic acid was not perfectly converted to $CO_2$ and $H_2O$, but to low fatty acid. In coagulation process, the coagulant was polyaluminumchloride which was widely used for drinking water treatment in recent years. With the dosage of 160 mg/L, total organic carbon(TOC), $COD_{Cr}$ and color were removed with 23%, 24% and 5% respectively. Color was effectively removed by ozone oxidation process, which was the first order reaction, with the reaction rate constant of $0.067min^{-1}$. In activated carbon adsorption process, preozonation process could remove more effectively the dissolved humic acid than that without preozonation. When the dissolved humic acid and sodium hydrochloride were reacted with 1 mg-NaOCl/mg-TOC, only trihalomethanes were detected.

In the last decades, the decrease in biological or chemical availability of sorbed contaminants as contact time passed, is generally accepted. This phenomenon so called as "aging" or "sequestration" is known to directly affect risk of the contaminats. This was observed for mainly for hydrophobic organic contaminants (HOCs), but also reported for heavy metals. Aging is known to be directly related to sorption-desorption hysteresis, irreversible sorption, desorption-resistance, nonequilibrium sorption, etc. The decrease in bioavailability due to aging or sequestration indicates realistic decrease in risk potential. Recently a risk-based management concept by scientific evidences but not the simple measurement of contaminant concentration has been attempted to determine environmentally acceptable remedial endpoint. This is because selection of remedial endpoint based on not total concentration but the bioavailability and toxicity of contaminants can reduce both the treatment cost and remedial activities of the contaminated sites. The bioavailability and toxicity of the residual contaminants are highly affected by the fate and transport and also directly affect the exposure pathways and bioaccumulation of contaminants in the living biota. In this paper, scientific feasibility on the risk-based clean-up and management of contaminated sites is reviewed.

This study developed a simple model to investigate effects of important operating parameters on performance of a bubbling-bed adsorber and regenerator system collecting $CO_2$ from flue gas. The chemical reaction rate was used with mean particles residence time of a reactor to determine the extent of conversion in both adsorber and regenerator reactors. Effects of process parameters - temperature, gas velocity, solid circulation rate, moisture content of feed gas - on $CO_2$ capture efficiency were investigated in a laboratory scale process. The $CO_2$ capture efficiency decreased with increasing temperature or gas velocity of the adsorber. However, it increased with increasing the moisture content of the flue gas or the regenerator temperature. The calculated $CO_2$ capture efficiency agreed to the measured value reasonably well. However the present model did not agree well to the effect of the solid circulation rate on $CO_2$ capture efficiency. Better understanding on contact efficiency between gas and particles was needed to interpret the effect properly.

The application of solid phase microextraction (SPME) is generally conducted by directly immersing the fiber into the liquid sample or by exposing the fiber in the head space (HS). The extraction temperature, the time of incubation, and application of stirring are often designated to be the most important parameters for achieving the best extraction efficiencies of HS-SPME analysis. In this study, relative importance of these three analytical parameters involved in the HS-SPME method is evaluated using a polydimethylsiloxane/carboxen (PDMS/CAR) fiber. To optimize its operation conditions the competing relationships between different parameters were investigated by comparing the extraction efficiency based on the combination of three parameters and two contracting conditions: (1) heating the sample at 30 vs. 50 C, (2) exposing samples at two durations of 10 vs. 30 min, and (3) application of stirring vs. no stirring. According to our analysis among 8 combination types of HS-SPME method, an extraction condition termed as S50-30 condition ((1) 1200 rpm stirring, (2) $50^{\circ}C$ exposure temp, and (3) 30 min exposure duration) showed maximum recovery rate of 45.5~68.5% relative to an arbitrary reference of direct GC injection. According to this study, the employment of stirring is the most crucial factor to improve extraction efficiency in the application of HS-SPME.
