In this study, silane-crosslinked organic/inorganic composite membranes were prepared by simultaneous irradiation grafting of binary monomer mixtures (styrene and 3-(trimethoxysilyl)propyl methacrylate (TMSPM)) with various compositions onto a poly(ethylene-alt-tetraethylene) (ETFE) film and followed by sol-gel processing and sulfonation to provide a silane-crosslinked structure and a proton conducting ability, respectively. The Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and thermo gravimetric analysis (TGA) were utilized to confirm the crosslinking of ETFE-g-PS/PTMSPM films. The prepared membranes with similar ion exchange capacity but a different TMSPM content were selected and their membrane properties were compared. The ETFE-g-PSSA/PTMSPM membranes were characterized by water uptake, dimensional stability, and proton conductivity after sulfonation. The membrane electrode assemblies (MEA) of the prepared membranes were fabricated and their single cell performances were measured.

Pervaporation process using a NaY zeolite membrane was applied for separation of water generated in an esterification process as a byproduct. From the binary mixture of water and either ethyl acetate or acetic acid and the ternary mixture of water, ethanol and ethyl acetate which might be present in an esterification reaction for manufacturing ethyl acetate, water was separated by the membrane pervaporation. It was investigated how the operating parameters such as an organic concentration and a temperature affected the permeate flux and the separation factor of water. For the feed mixture of water/ethyl acetate, the total flux and the separation factor of water were observed to be $930-5,000g/m^2/hr$ and 3,700-8,000, respectively. Also it was found for ternary mixtures of water/ethanol/ethyl acetate that the total flux was $1,300-3,900g/m^2/hr$ and the separation factor was 530-1,600. A pervaporation process might be applied in an esterification process since both the total flux and the separation factor of water through the NaY zeolite membrane were shown to be very high.

Pressure swing adsorption (PSA) process using CMS as an oxygen purifier was developed to produce high purity oxygen over $99\%$ with high productivity. The cyclic performances such as purity, recovery, and productivity of PSA process were compared experimentally and theoretically under the non-isothermal condition. A binary ($O_2$/Ar 95:5 vol.$\%$) and two kinds of ternary ($O_2/Ar/N_2$ 95:4:1 and 90:4:6 vol.$\%$) mixtures were used as feed gases. The developed process with the consecutive two blowdown steps produced the oxygen with $99.8\%$ purity and $56\%$ recovery from $95\%$ oxygen containing feed. However, in the feed with $90\%$ oxygen, the $O_2$ Purity was decreased up to $97.3\%$. In addition, because the cyclic performances of the suggested process was significantly affected by the diffusion rate, the non-isothermal model with the the modified LDF model was applied for the process simulation. The concentration-dependent rate parameter of the applied rate model was incorporated with the Langmuir isotherm.

AC-PDP에서 발광 휘도와 발광 효율의 개선은 매우 중요한 과제중의 하나이다. 높은 발광 휘도와 발광 효율을 위해선 VUV의 높은 발광 효율이 요구되어진다. 이 실험에서는 AC-PDP에서 Ne-Xe의 2원 혼합기체와 He-Ne-Xe의 3원 혼합기체의 VUV 발광 세기를 측정하였다. 기체 압력은 200 Torr, 300 Torr, 400 Torr, 500 Torr로 유지하였고, Xe 혼합비는 1%, 2%, 4%, 7%, 10%, 15%를 사용하였다. 진공자외선 발광 세기는 He-Ne-Xe의 3원 혼합기체가 Ne-Xe의 2원 혼합기체보다 발광 세기가 훨씬 높다는 것을 알 수 있었다. 그리고 Xe 함량이 증가함에 따라 공명선인 147 nm의 발광 세기는 Xe 혼합비가 약 10%까지는 증가하다가 10% 이후에는 포화되고, 반면 분자선인 173 nm은 Xe 함량과 가스 압력이 증가함에 따라 발광 세기가 증가하였다.

In the present study, $CO_2$ permeation through a hydrophilic NaY zeolite membrane was studied under permeate evacuation mode for $CO_2$ single gas, $CO_2-N_2$ and $CO_2-O_2$ binary mixtures, and $CO_2-N_2-O_2$ ternary mixture. It was reconfirmed that the $CO_2$ permeation was governed by surface diffusion and the $CO_2$ selectivity was induced from blocking effect of adsorbed $CO_2$ molecules. The $CO_2$ permeance measured in permeate evacuation mode was much lower than that done in He sweeping mode, but was comparable to that obtained under feed pressurization mode. The NaY zeolite membrane showed a considerable $CO_2$ separation for $14%CO_2-80%N_2-6%O_2$ mixture : $CO_2$ permeance was about $1{\times}10^{-7}mol/m^2secPa$ and $CO_2$ selectivity was more than 10. Therefore, it was concluded that NaY zeolite membrane was one of promising membranes for post-combustion CCS process.

This experiment was carried out to investigate the competition in mono-and binary-associations of four forage species; ochardgrass (Dactylis glomerata L. cv. Potomac), tallfescue (Festuca arundinacea Scnreb, cv. Fawn), white clover (Trifolium repns L. cv. California), and red clover (Trifolium pratense L. cv. Kenland) as affected by different sowing rate. Each species was grown in interspecific stands in field. And samplings of shoot were taken at first cliping stages. The interspecific competition was evaluated by calculating traditional methods: aggressivity, relative yield total (RYT), relative crowding coefficient (RCC), and compensation index (CI) with shoot dry matter production and calories of nutrient ingredient of each species in mono-and binary-mixture. Compared mixture with monoculture. RYT based on dry weight was lucrative in mixture except for orchardgrass-redcover (1:0.1,1:1). RYT of calculated calories with produced nutrients was in inlucrative in mixture of orchardgrass-redclover's 1:0.1 mixture by RYT<1.0. Generally, RYT was the highest in mixture of 1:0.5 sowing rate. Aggressivity of grass was poor competition tendency that raised up legume's sowing rate, particularly, with whiteclover. In grasses, tallfescue was stronger competitor than orchardgrass with legume in mixture, RCC of grasses against legume's growth was depressed in higher sowing rate with legume. Grass's growth depression was severer with whiteclover than redclover in mixture.
