Silica/SUS composite membranes were prepared for CO removal from products of methanol steam reforming. A support was prepared by coating Ni powder of sub-micron and SiO$_2$ sols of particle size of 500nm and 150nm in turns on a porous stainless steel (SUS) substrate. Silica top layer was coated on the modified support using colloidal sol with nanoparticle. As a result of mixture gas permeation test of silica composite membrane using H$_2$(99%)/CO(1%), CO concentration of 10000 ppm was reduced to under 81 ppm, which is acceptable in PEMFC anode gas specification. Permeation mechanism through the membrane was mainly molecular sieving.

Split-flow thin cell fractionation (SPLITT fractionation, SF)은 밀도와 입자 크기에 따라 입자성 물질이나 거대분자를 연속적으로 분리 및 분획하는 기술이다. SF 모드 중 full-feed depletion mode (FFD)는 오직 한 개의 주입 구를 가지고 있으며, outlet에만 flow stream splitter가 존재한다. SPLITT은 두 가지의 중요 인자가 있다. 하나는 시간에 따라 통과되는 시료의 양 (throughput, TP)과 또 다른 하나는 이론에 의해 예측된 크기를 가지는 입자들의 수 퍼센트로 정의하는 분획효율 (fractionation efficiency, FE)이다.. 기존 FFD 모드에서는 splitter가 outlet에 존재하여, 채널 규모를 확장시키는 데 제한이 있어 시료 처리량의 한계가 있다. 따라서 splitter를 제거하고 채널규모를 증가하여 시료 처리량을 대폭 증가시킬 수 있는 대규모 중력장 FFD-SF 채널을 사용하였다. 따라서 이 논문에서는 대용량 중력장 FFD-SF의 TP와 FE 최적화를 위하여 시료농도와 유속변화로 실험을 진행하였다. 이 실험에서는 두 개의 다른 입자 분포 (3~7 µm, 2~30 µm) 를 가지는 Polyurethane (PU) latex beads가 사용되었다. 시료의 농도는 0.2~0.8% (wt/vol)을 사용하였으며, 채널의 유속은 70~160 mL/min을 사용하였다. 분획된 입자는 광학 현미경으로 확인하여 직접 크기 관찰을 하였으며 시료 회수율 (recovery)은 수집된 입자를 0.1 µm 맴브레인 필터로 거른 후 무게측정으로 실험하였다. 본 연구를 통해 fraction-a의 분획효율 (FE)은 이론에 따라 정확히 맞춰준다면 언제든 좋은 수치를 얻을 수 있다는 것이 확인되었고, 시료의 입자크기가 커서 채널에 쌓일 경우, 시료 회수율을 높이기 위해서는 이동상을 더 흘려주는 방법을 사용하면 효과적인 것을 확인하였다. 또한 효율적인 TP로 실험을 진행하기 위해서는 최소한 0.4% 농도는 사용해야 효율적인 분획이 이뤄진다는 것을 확인하였다.

Oil palm fronds (OPF) are one of the main by-products of the oil palm industry in Malaysia. It contains about 38.5 % crude fibre with ME values of about 5.65 MJ/kg dry matter. OPF has great potential to be utilized as a roughage source or as a component in a complete feed for ruminant animals. This paper briefly reviews the availability of OPF in Malaysia and its importance in the local beef and dairy industry. About 26 million metric tonnes of OPF are produced on dry matter basis annually during pruning and replanting operations in the plantations. The nutritive value of OPF and studies to improve its feeding value is highlighted. The optimum level of inclusion for ruminant feeding is 30 % and improvement to intake and digestibility can be further enhanced with addition of other oil-palm by-products. Performances of beef and dairy cattle fed fresh OPF or as silage, pellets and cubes are shown. Good quality OPF silage can be produced without using any additive and the significant improvement on the rate of growth and milk yield were shown. With good formulations, OPF based diets can allow live weight gains of between 600-850 g/day and for local crossbred dairy animals, milk yield of about 11.1 to 20.3 liter/day can be obtained. Pellet based on ground OPF seemed to be less well utilized for ruminant feeding due to its smaller particle size. OPF based cubes which have longer particle size is more suitable for beef and dairy cattle. Long-term feeding of OPF based feeds have been shown to produce good quality carcasses, and the meat is safe for consumption.

Deep sea water has cold temperature, abundant nutrients and minerals, and good water quality that is pathogen-free and stable. Compared with surface water, deep sea water contains more nutrition salt, such as nitrogen and phosphor. Moreover, if has the good balance of minerals. Because of the ability of the spray drying process to produce a free-flowing power considering of spherical particles with a well-defined size distribution and the rapid drying times for heat-sensitive material, spray drying is attractive for a wide range of applications spray drying is a unique unit operation in which powders are produced from a liquid feed in a single processing step. Key component of the process are atomizer, spray chamber. Design of spray chamber should be based on the atomizer type, the production rate, and the particle size required. Because of the complex processes taking place during spray drying, traditional design method are based on pilot-plant tests and empirical scale-up rules. Modern technique such as CFD have a role to play in design and troubleshooting.

Material corrosion in nuclear power plant (NPP) is not controlled only by amine injection but also by ion exchange (IX) which is the best option to remove trace Na⁺. This study was conducted to understand the Na⁺ leakage characteristics of IX beds packed with ethanolamine-form (ETAH-form) and hydrogen-form (H-form) resins in the simulated water-steam cycle in terms of intrinsic behaviors of four kinds of cation-exchange resins through ASTM test and Vanselow mass action modeling. Na⁺ was inappreciably escaped throughout the channel created in resin layer. Na⁺ leakage from IX bed was non-linearly raised because of its decreasing selectivity with increasing Na⁺ capture and with increasing the fraction of ETAH-form resin. Na⁺ did not reach the breakthrough earlier than ETAH⁺ and NH₄⁺ due to the increased selectivity of Na⁺ to the cation-exchange resin (H⁺ < ETAH⁺ < NH₄⁺ ≪ Na⁺) at the feed composition. Na⁺ leakage from the resin bed filled with small particles was decreased due to the enhanced dynamic IX processes, regardless of its low selectivity. Thus, the particle size is a predominant factor among intrinsic properties of IX resin to reduce Na⁺ leakage from the condensate polishing plant (CPP) in NPPs.

Purpose: Fermented feedstuffs have been found to improve productivity, reduce manure odor, and increase immunity. However, because there is not a commercialized pelletizing system for fermented total mixed ration (TMR) for pig feeding in Korea, a pelletizing system using TMR fermented feed was developed. Methods: The particle size, density, and volumetric density of the TMR feeds used in the test were measured. The pellet durability index (PDI, %) value of the pelletized TMR feed based on its moisture content, and the amount of pellet production based on the rotation speed of the compression roller were measured. Results: The test materials, TMR1 and TMR2, were approximately compressed to 387 kg/m3 with 18.2% (w.b.) and 544 kg/m3 with 22.2% (w.b.), respectively. Throughout this pellet molding test, the moisture content from 15 to 20% (w.b.) of mixture feedstuffs, including fermented forage, could be used for pellet molding. Based on the results, a small-scale pellet molding system of fermented TMR was designed and manufactured for pig farms. As rotation speed increased, the throughput increased, whereas the moisture content decreased by approximately 2% (w.b.) because of pellet molding. The best yield of pellets with 94.2% PDI was of 536 kg/h at 135 rpm rotation speed. Conclusions: Although the throughput of the prototype increased as the rotation speed increased, it was difficult to operate because of the greater noise and the lower PDI (%) at the higher rotation speed of the pellet molding rotor. It was found that the best production of pellets using the prototype was 536 kg/h having a PDI of 94.2% or more at a rotation speed of 135 rpm.

Objective: A study was conducted to quantify the performance differences of the near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) calibration models developed with different degrees of hay sample preparations. Methods: A total of 227 imported alfalfa (Medicago sativa L.) and another 360 imported timothy (Phleum pratense L.) hay samples were used to develop calibration models for nutrient value parameters such as moisture, neutral detergent fiber, acid detergent fiber, crude protein, and in vitro dry matter digestibility. Spectral data of hay samples prepared by milling into 1-mm particle size or unground were separately regressed against the wet chemistry results of the abovementioned parameters. Results: The performance of the developed NIRS calibration models was evaluated based on R², standard error, and ratio percentage deviation (RPD). The models developed with ground hay were more robust and accurate than those with unground hay based on calibration model performance indexes such as R² (coefficient of determination), standard error, and RPD. Although the R² of calibration models was mainly greater than 0.90 across the feed value indexes, the R² of cross-validations was much lower. The R² of cross-validation varies depending on feed value indexes, which ranged from 0.61 to 0.81 in alfalfa, and from 0.62 to 0.95 in timothy. Estimation of feed values in imported hay can be achievable by the calibrated NIRS. However, the NIRS calibration models must be improved by including a broader range of imported hay samples in the modeling. Conclusion: Although the analysis accuracy of NIRS was substantially higher when calibration models were developed with ground samples, less sample preparation will be more advantageous for achieving rapid delivery of hay sample analysis results. Therefore, further research warrants investigating the level of sample preparations compromising analysis accuracy by NIRS.
