최근 해상유류오염사고시 사용되는 유화제는 해안으로 이동하여 또 다른 수질오염의 원인으로 문제가 되고 있다. 이 연구에서는 자성을 띠고 있는 흡착제를 이용하여 해수 속에 잔류하는 유화제를 제거하는 기술에 대해서 논의하였다. 본 실험에서는 자성을 띠는 흡착제로서 마그네타이트와 마그헤마이트를 이용하였고, 대표적인 유화제 성분으로는 음이온성 계면활성제인 SDDBS (Sodium dodecylbenzene sulfonic acid)와 비이온성 계면활성제인 Triton X-100 (t-octylphenoxypoly-ethoxyethanol)을 사용하였다. 실험은 두 흡착제의 유화제에 대한 흡착 평형시간과 흡착능에 대한 회분식 실험과 모의 실제 상황에서 흡착제가 영구자석이나 전자석에 의해 수거되는 양상을 알아보기 위한 수조실험으로 나누어 이루어졌다. 마그헤마이트는 계면활성제의 종류와 사용된 물의 종류에 상관없이 제거효율이 일정하게 나타나는데 비해 마그네타이트는 음이온성 계면활성제에 대해 선택적으로 고효율을 보이고 있고, 이온이 존재하는 해수보다는 증류수의 경우가 높은 효율을 보이고 있다. 미그네타이트의 흡착메커니즘은 정전기적 인력에 의한 것으로 판단되고, 마그헤마이트의 경우는 정전기적 인력과 함께 흡착능을 향상시키는 구조적 특정과 표면상태의 특성으로 설명되어진다. 수조실험에서는 흡착이 이루어진 후 자석에 의한 회수는 100%에 가까운 것으로 나타났다. 이와 같은 결과는 두 흡착제와 사석에 의한 유화제 제거방법이 실제 해상에서 적용되었을 때 유화제를 짧은 시간 내에 고효율로 처리할 수 있는 효과적인 방법임을 시사한다.

Synthesis of nanocrystalline diamond powder was investigated via a gas-to-particle scheme using the hot filament chemical vapor deposition. Effect of substrate surface seeding by nano diamond powder, and that of the electrical conductance of the substrate were studied. The substrate temperature, methane content in the precursor gas, filament-substrate distance and filament temperature were $670^{\circ}C$, 5% methane in hydrogen, 10 mm and $2400^{\circ}C$, respectively. The powder formation by gas-to-particle mechanism were greatly enhanced by the substrate seeding by the nano diamond powder. It was attributed to the removal of the electrostatic force between the substrate and the seeded nano diamond particle by the thermal electron shower from the hot filament, via the depolarization of the substrate surface or the attached diamond powder and subsequent levitation into the gas phase to serve as the gas-phase nucleation site. The powder formation was greatly favoured by the conducting substrate relative to the insulating substrate, which proved the actual effect of the electric static force in the powder formation.

In this paper, big free standing metal structures for electrostatic MEMS switches are easily fabricated using photoresist sacrificial layer. The entire process sequence, through the removal of the sacrificial layer, is kept below 150 $^{\circ}C$ to avoid curing problem of photoresist sacrificial layer. Metal structure is fabricated by thermal evaporator and a self test electrode is fabricated underlying metal suspended structure for testing by electrostatic force. The new wet release process is considered using methanol rinse, general wet release process cause stiction problem by capillary force during drying, and the yield is dramatically improved than previous wet release process using DI water rinse. The fabrication becomes much simpler and cheaper with use of a photoresist sacrificial layer.

Electret filter media are used in general ventilation filters, disposable respirators, vehicle cabin filters, vacuum cleaners and room air cleaners. There are basic mechanisms of interception, inertial impaction, diffusion, gravitational settling, electrostatic attraction by which an aerosol particle can be deposited onto a fiber in a filter. The ability of fine particle removal strongly depends on the electrostatic forces between particles and polarized fibers. Thus, the stability of the fiber polarization is a major factor in the reliability of electret filters. In this study, electrical properties and filtration performance of electrospun filter media are quantitatively investigated. Electrical properties of electrospun filters have been studied on surface charge potential and surface charge density. Also the filtration performance of the electret filters are evaluated on collection efficiency. Electrospun filters show same collection efficiency with low pressure drop compare to commercialized HEPA filters. Surface charge potential and surface charge density of electrospun filters are increased with increasing applied voltage. Also collection efficiency of electrospun filters is increased with increasing surface charge potential and surface charge density.

The electrostatic precipitator (ESP) has been used for degrading atmospheric pollutants. These devices induce the electrical forces to facilitate the removal of particulate pollutants. The ions travel from the high voltage electrode to the grounded electrode by Coulomb force induced by the electric field when a high voltage is applied between two electrodes. The ions collide with gas molecules and exchange momentum with each other thus inducing fluid motion, electrohydrodynamic (EHD) flow. In this study, for the simulation of electric field and EHD flow in ESPs, an open source EHD solver, "espFoam", has been developed using open source CFD toolbox, OpenFOAM(R) (Open Field Operation and Manipulation). The electric potential distribution and ionic space charge density distribution were obtained with the developed solver, and validated with experimental results in the literature. The comparison results showed good agreement. Turbulence model is also incorporated to simulate turbulent flow; hence the developed solver can analyze laminar and turbulent flow. In distributions of electric potential and space charge, the distributions become distorted and asymmetric as the flow velocity increases. The effect of electrical drift flow was investigated for different flow velocities and the secondary flow in a flow of low velocity is successfully predicted.

In this study, chemically modified biochar (NSBP500, KSBP500, OSBP500) derived from starfish was utilized to improve the adsorption ability of the SBP500 (Starfish Biochar Pyrolyzed at 500℃) in a solution contaminated with heavy metals. According to the biochar modification performance evaluation batch tests, the removal rate and adsorption amount of NSBP500 increased 1.4 times for Cu, 1.5 times for Cd, and 1.2 times for Zn as compared to the control sample SBP500. In addition, the removal rate and adsorption amount of KSBP500 increased 2 times for Cu, 1.8 times for Cd, and 1.2 times for Zn. The removal rate and adsorption amount of OSBP500 increased 5.8 times for Cu. The FT-IR analysis confirmed the changes in the generation and movement of new functional groups after adsorption. SEM analysis confirmed Cu in KSBP500 was in the form of Cu(OH)₂ and resembled the structure of nanowires. The Cd in KSBP500 was densely covered in cubic form of Cd(OH)₂. Lead(Pb) was in the form of Pb₃(OH)₂(CO₃)₂ in a hexagonal atomic layer structure in NSBP500. In addition, it was observed that Zn was randomly covered with Zn₅(CO₃)₂(OH)₆ pieces which resembled plates in KSBP500. Therefore, this study confirmed that biochar removal efficiency was improved through a chemical modification treatment. Accordingly, adsorption and precipitation were found to be the complex mechanisms behind the improved removal efficiency in the biochar. This was accomplished by electrostatic interactions between the biochar and heavy metals and ion exchange with Ca²⁺.

In this study, performance (particle removal efficiency and breathing resistance) of several commercially available face masks (electrostatic filter masks (KF80 certified), a nanofiber filter mask (KF80 certified), and an uncertified mask) with their filter structure and composition were evaluated. Also, effects of relative humidity (RH) of incoming air, water and alcohol exposure, and reusability on performance of face masks were examined. Monodisperse and polydisperse sodium chloride particles were used as test aerosols. Except the uncertified mask filter, PM_2.5 removal efficiency was found to be higher than 90%, and the nanofiber filter mask had the highest quality factor due to the low pressure drop and high removal efficiency (nanofibers were arranged in a densely packed pore structure and contained a significant amount of fluorine in addition to carbon and oxygen). In the case of the KF80 certified mask, the removal efficiency was little affected when the RH of incoming air increased. When the mask filters were soaked in water, the removal efficiency of mask filters was degraded. In particular, the uncertified mask filter showed the highest removal efficiency degradation (26%). When the mask was soaked in alcohol, the removal efficiency also decreased with the greater degree than the water soaking case. The nanofiber mask filter showed the strongest resistance to alcohol exposure among tested mask filters. During evaluation of reusability of masks in real life, the removal efficiency of certified mask filter was less than 4% for 5 consecutive days (2 hours per day), while the removal efficiency of uncertified mask filter significantly decreased by 30% after 5 days.

석탄화력발전소에서 발생하는 분진 효율을 높이고 미세먼지와 극미세먼지까지 집진할 필요성이 높아지고 있다. 상압 영역에서 운전되는 플랜트 발생 분진 제거를 위해서는 백필터나 전기집진기를 사용하나, 고온고압에서 운전되는 석탄가스화와 같은 경우는 금속필터나 세라믹필터가 사용된다. 고온고압에서 분진 집진을 위해 2종의 5겹 압착/소결한 금속필터를 제작하였고 이를 사용했을 때 분진 포집효율과 $10{\mu}m$ 이하 입자에 대한 포집 성능을 파악하였다. 석탄가스화 분진에 대한 금속필터의 집진효율은 무게기준으로 99%대에 달하였다. 제작한 금속필터 2종의 미세먼지 입자 이하(< $2.5{\mu}m$) 크기까지 집진성능을 파악하고자 JIS 분진 표준시료를 대상으로 실험을 수행하였고, $1{\sim}2.5{\mu}m$ 입자크기 범위에 대해 97%와 70~82%의 집진 성능을 확인하였다. $1{\mu}m$ 이하 입자크기 영역에서는 입자크기가 작아짐에 따라 제작한 금속필터의 집진효율이 급격히 낮아짐을 볼 수 있었다. 이러한 $1{\mu}m$ 이하 입자들에 대한 집진 제한점을 극복하고자 금속필터 성능의 개선 방안을 제시하였다.

This study focused on the performance of the newly developed hybrid filter system to capture fine particulate matter and mercury compounds in a coal-fired power plant. The hybrid filter system combining bag-filter and electrostatic precipitator had been developed to remove fine particulate matter. However, it would have a good performance to control mercury compounds as well. In Hybrid filter capture system, the total removal efficiency of total mercury compounds consisting of particulate mercury ($Hg_p$), oxidized mercury ($Hg^{2+}$), and elemental mercury ($Hg^0$) was 66.2%. The speciation of mercury compounds at inlet and outlet of Hybrid filter capture system were 1.3% and 0% of $Hg_p$, 85.2% and 68.1% of $Hg^0$, and 13.5% and 31.9% of $Hg^{2+}$, respectively. In hybrid filter capture system injected with 100% of flue-gas, the removal efficiency of total mercury was calculated to increase to 93.5%.
