The demand of micro electrical mechanical system (MEMS) bio/chemical sensor is rapidly increasing. To prevent the contamination of sensing area, a filtration system is required in on-chip total analyzing MEMS bio/chemical sensor. A nano-filter was mainly applied in some application detecting submicron feature size bio/chemical products such as bacteria, fungi and so on. We suggested a simple nano-filter fabrication process based on replication process. The mother pattern was fabricated by holographic lithography and reactive ion etching process, and the replication process was carried out using polymer mold and UV-imprinting process. Finally the nano-filter is obtained after removing the replicated part of metal deposited replica. In this study, as a practical example of the suggested process, a nano-dot array was replicated to fabricate nano-filter fur bacteria sensor application.

이온전도도가 높은 상온 이온액을 이용하여 저온, 고온 상분리에 의한 multi-stage phase separation process로 새로운 고정화 이온액 전해질 막(supported ionic liquid electrolyte membranes, SILEMs)을 제조하였다. PVDF와 imidazolium계 이온액을 각각 분리막 소재와 전해액으로 사용하였다. 이온전도도 특성을 알아보기 위해 SILEMs을 LCR meter를 이용 해 $30^{\circ}C$부터 $130^{\circ}C$까지 실험하였다. 가습조건에서 cast Nafion 막의 이온전도도는 $30^{\circ}C$부터 $100^{\circ}C$까지는 직선적으로 증가하였으나 그 이후에는 감소하였다. 그러나 SILEMs의 경우 운전온도의 증가에 따라 이온전도도가 증가하였다. 또한 SILEMs의 이온전도도 거동은 가습과 관계없이 거의 같았다. SILEMs의 이온전도도는 $30^{\circ}C$에서 $2.7{\times}10^{-3}S/cm$이었고 온도가 $130^{\circ}C$까지 증가함에 따라 $2.2{\times}10^{-2}S/cm$까지 거의 직선적으로 증가하였다. $SiO_2$를 이용하여 SILEMs의 물리적 성질에 대한 무기첨가제의 영향에 관하여 연구하였다. SILEMs에 $SiO_2$의 첨가는 비록 약간의 이온전도도 감소는 있으나 SILEMs의 기계적 강도를 향상시킬 수 있었다.

The use of lignocellulosic biomass such as rice straw can help subsidize the cost of producing value-added chemicals. However, inhibitory compounds, such as phenolics, produced during the pre-treatment of biomass, hamper the saccharification process. Laccase and electrochemical stimuli are both well known to reduce phenolic compounds. Therefore, in this study, we implemented a bioelectrochemical detoxification system (BEDS), a consolidated electrochemical and enzymatic process involving laccase, to enhance the detoxification of phenolics, and thus achieve a higher saccharification efficiency. Saccharification of pretreated rice straw using BEDS at 1.5 V showed 90% phenolic reduction (Ph_r), thereby resulting in a maximum saccharification yield of 85%. In addition, the specific power consumption when using BEDS (2.2 W/Kg Ph_r) was noted to be 24% lower than by the electrochemical process alone (2.89 W/kg Ph_r). To the best of our knowledge, this is the first study to implement BEDS for reduction of phenolic compounds in pretreated biomass.

This paper reviews some of the most prominent and promising areas of chemical process control both in relations to batch and continuous processes. These areas include the modeling, optimization, control and monitoring of chemical processes and entire plants. Most of these areas explicitly utilize a model of the process. For this purpose the types of models used are examined in some detail. These types of models are categorized in knowledge-driven and datadriven classes. In the areas of modeling and optimization, attention is paid to batch reactors using the Tendency Modeling approach. These Tendency models consist of data- and knowledge-driven components and are often called Gray or Hybrid models. In the case of continuous processes, emphasis is placed in the closed-loop identification of a state space model and their use in Model Predictive Control nonlinear processes, such as the Fluidized Catalytic Cracking process. The effective monitoring of multivariate process is examined through the use of statistical charts obtained by the use of Principal Component Analysis (PMC). Static and dynamic charts account for the cross and auto-correlation of the substantial number of variables measured on-line. Centralized and de-centralized chart also aim in isolating the source of process disturbances so that they can be eliminated. Even though significant progress has been made during the last decade, the challenges for the next ten years are substantial. Present progress is strongly influenced by the economical benefits industry is deriving from the use of these advanced techniques. Future progress will be further catalyzed from the harmonious collaboration of University and Industrial researchers.

화학공장은 수많은 장치들로 구성되어 있고 매우 복잡한 구조를 가지고 있다. 특히 분산 제어 시스템(Distributed Control System, DCS)이나 공정 정보 시스템(Process Information System, PIS) 등을 설치하여 매분 또는 매초 단위로 공정 데이터를 얻고 있다. 화학공장의 경우, 데이터들의 방대한 양 뿐 만 아니라 데이터들간의 상호 연관성이 크고 재순환이나 화학 반응 등으로 인하여 막대한 계산량 및 비선형성을 지니기 때문에 효과적 분석에 곤란한 점이 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 함수연결연상 신경망을 이용하여 입력변수들을 확장함으로써 신경망의 비선형성 표현능력과 학습능력이 뛰어난 프로그램의 개발에 주안점을 두고 있다. REFA (Real Time Fault Analyzer)는 실시간으로 공정정보를 입력받은 후 입력값을 PC로 매핑하고, 이를 다시 역으로 매핑하여 입력값을 예측하여 공정을 감시하는 시스템으로 개발되었으며, Tennessee Eastman 공정에 적용해 우수성을 입증하였다.

The modified surface of specialty carbon black(SCB) is one of the main technical factors for producing a uniform color and stable dispersion. In this work, the carboxylation or sulfonation process of SCB was used to improve the dispersive properties of hydrophilic solvents such as 1,6-hexanediol and propylene glycol monomethyl ether acetate(PGMEA). The results showed that the color strength of SCB DC2500G changed little with a range of 0.128~0.941(${\Delta}E$) compared to other SCB DC2500G material. In contrast, in the case of SCB EG410, there was a uniform color value with a range of 0.144~0.252(${\Delta}E$). Also, in our experiments, a modified SCB was confirmed by printing ink material as a melt coating paper. It may be possible that the SCB EG410 material can be advantageous as a gravure ink product. Finally, the modified SCB obtained from this research will have a large impact on the industry as a potential material for toners, paint, rubber, fillers, and other carbon black additives.

Surface morphology and optical properties such as transmittance and haze effect of glass etched by physical and chemical etching processes were investigated. The physical etching process was carried out by pen type sandblasting process with $15{\sim}20{\mu}m$ dia. of $Al_2O_3$ media; the chemical etching process was conducted using HF-based mixed etchant. Sandblasting was performed in terms of variables such as the distance of 8 cm between the gun nozzle and the glass substrate, the fixed air pressure of 0.5bar, and the constant speed control of the specimen stage. The chemical etching process was conducted with mixed etching solution prepared by combination of BHF (Buffered Hydrofluoric Acid), HCl, and distilled water. The morphology of the glass surface after sandblasting process displayed sharp collision vestiges with nonuniform shapes that could initiate fractures. The haze values of the sandblasted glass were quantitatively acceptable. However, based on visual observation, the desirable Anti-Glare effect was not achieved. On the other hand, irregularly shaped and sharp vestiges transformed into enlarged and smooth micro-spherical craters with the subsequent chemical etching process. The curvature of the spherical crater increased distinctly by 60 minutes and decreased gradually with increasing etching time. Further, the spherical craters with reduced curvature were uniformly distributed over the etched glass surface. The haze value increased sharply up to 55 % and the transmittance decreased by 90 % at 60 minutes of etching time. The ideal haze value range of 3~7 % and transmittance value range of above 90 % were achieved in the period of 240 to 720 minutes of etching time for the selected concentration of the chemical etchant.

Carbon dioxide injection is a widely known method of enhanced oil recovery (EOR). It is critical for the $CO_2$ EOR that the injected $CO_2$ to reach a condition fully miscible with oil. To reach the miscible point, a certain level of pressure is required, which is known as minimum miscibility pressure (MMP). In this study, a MMP prediction method using a process simulator is proposed. To validate the results of the simulation, those are compared to a slim tube experiment and several empirical correlations of previous literatures. Aspen HYSYS is utilized as the process simulator to create a model of $CO_2$/crude oil encounter. The results of the study show that the process simulator model is capable of predicting MMP and comparable to other published methods.

Glycolipids produced by Pseudomonas aeruginosa YPJ-80 were characterized by chromatographic and spectorscopic techniques as a mixture of two rhamnolipids. For recovery of glycolipids from the culture broth, various isolation methods including ultrafiltration, adsorption and solvent extraction were compared. Ultrafiltration showed the best results in terms of glycolipids recovery. Further purification for spectroscopic analysis was carried out by adsorption chromatography and preparative thin layer chromatography. From the spectroscopic analysis, such as IR spectroscopy. FAB-MS, 1H-NMR and 13C-NMR and hydrolysis analysis, the glycolipids were identified as L-${\alpha}$-rhamnopyranosyl-${\beta}$-hydroxydecanoly-${\beta}$-hydroxydecanoate and 2-O-${\alpha}$-L-rhamnopyranosyl-${\alpha}$-L-rhamnopyranosyl-${\beta}$-hydroxydecanoyl-${\beta}$-hydroxydecanoate. Monorhamnolipid and dirhamnolipid lowered the surface tension of water to 28.1 mN/M and 29.3 mN/m, respectively.

The effects on the enzymatic hydrolysis of waste paper treated with physical or chemical treatment were investigated. To gain the higher saccharification rate, physical or chemical treatment are necessary in enzymatic conversion process of waste paper. The major deterrents to the effective utilization of waste paper for enzymatic conversion process are phenolic compounds, cellulose crystallinity and coating materials. In the enzymatic hydrolysis of waste paper, the deterrents through enzymatic conversion process can be eliminated by the physical or chemical treatment. This study was performed to obtain the optimal condition for enzymatic conversion process of non-treated waste paper and to review effects on enzymatic conversion process of waste paper treated with physical or chemical methods. In the aspect of saccharification rate, waste paper treated with 1.5% sodium hypochlorite was the most effective and in physical treatment methods, multi-stage treatment(autohydrolysis+refining treatment) was more effective than the other physical treatment.
