Adsorption experiments for $H_2$, $CO_2$, CO, and their binary mixtures on zeolite 5A were performed by static volumetric method. Experimental data were obtained at temperatures of 293.15, 303.15 and 313.15 K and at pressures to 25 atm. The parameters obtained from single component adsorption isotherm. Multicomponent adsorption equilibria could be predicted and compared with experimental data. Langmuir isotherm, Langmuir-Freundlich isotherm and Dual-Site Langmuir isotherm be used to predict the experimental results for binary adsorption equilibria of $CO_2/CO$ and $H_2/CO_2$ on zeolite 5A. Dual-Site Langmuir isotherm showed the best agreement with the experimental results.

The effects of activated-carbon (AC) packing length on the Pressure Swing Adsorption (PSA) performance was investigated for the hydrogen separation from the multicomponent mixture gas. Linear driving force model was used to describe mass transfer between two phase and coupled Langmuir isotherm was used for each component as a nonlinear adsorption isotherm. When two adsorbents with a different adsorption capacity were packed consecutively in one bed, it is very important to determine the packing ratio of zeolite to activated carbon affecting the purity and recovery of the product. The activated carbon packing length in adsorption tower of 120 cm was determinated by the ending point of $CO_2$ contration. The optimum length of an activated carbon layer was 65 cm for production of high-purity hydrogen.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of a delirium prevention intervention for patients in neurology and neurosurgery intensive care units (ICUs). Methods: This study was a quasi-experimental study. Participants were 87 patients. The experimental group was provided with nonpharmacologic and multicomponent delirium prevention interventions, consisting of regular delirium assessment, improvement in orientation, early therapeutic intervention, and environmental interventions. The control group was provided with routine intensive care. Data were analyzed using $x^2$ test, Fisher's exact test, and t-test. Results: Both groups were homogeneous. The incidence of delirium and length of hospitalization were significantly lower in the experimental group compared to the control group. ICU stay, mortality and unplanned extubation were lower in the experimental group compared to the control group, but there was no significant difference. Conclusion: Findings indicate that the delirium prevention intervention is effective in reducing incidence of delirium and length of hospitalization. Therefore, this intervention should be helpful in preventing delirium in neurology and neurosurgery ICUs and can be used as a guide in the prevention of delirium in neurological diseases's patients.

Simulation of preparative protein chromatography becomes necessary for separation as well as optimal operation. A mathematical model describing the behavior of elution peaks in preparative protein chromatography for single and binary component separation was solved numerically using a PDEsolver Macsyma$^{\circledR}$(Macsyma Inc., Arlington, MA, U.S.A.). Band profiles were calculated with the equilibrium-dispersive model of chromatography. The effects of the sample volume, concentrations of solutes in the sample, flow velocity and column length on the band profile of the elution peaks are discussed. The results in this paper suggest the model simulation for the binary mixture can be extended to multicomponent separations.

An experiment and simulation were performed for hydrogen separation of mixtures by PSA (pressure swing adsorption) process on activated carbon. The binary ($H_2/Ar$; 80％/ 20％) and ternary ($H_2/Ar/CH_4$; 60％/ 20％/ 20％) mixtures were used to study the effects of feed composition. The cyclic performances such as purity, recovery, and productivity of 2bed-6step PSA process were experimentally and theoretically compared under non-isothermal and non-adiabatic conditions. The develped process produced the hydrogen with 99％ purity and 75％ recovery from both processes. Therefore, optimal separation condition was referred multicomponent gas mixtures.

Near Infrared Reflectance Spectroscopy(NIRS) is accepted as today's most versatile method for rapid chemical analysis. The technique offers rapid multicomponent analysis. This study was conducted to improve the efficiency of quality analysis in covered barley grain, and to search for the effects of chemical components variation in covered barley grain on NIRS. Among the three groups with different range in the contents, each equation for starch contents increased standard error of prediction(SEP) and increased correlation coefficient from 0.872 to 0.883. According as, $\beta$-glucan and protein contents decreased SEP and increased correlation coefficient by expanded chemical components variation. Effective equation for ash contents analysis was obtained from group 3. Among the covered barley chemical components, starch and ash contents were required to conduct futher studies in term of accuracy and variation of contents. It was concluded that NIRS method would be applicable for the rapid determination of $\beta$-glucan and protein contents in covered barley grains.

The study is related to the synthesis of acrylic acid by selective oxidation of acrolein on Mo-V-W multicomponent mixed oxide catalysts. Mo-V-W-O(WVM), Mo-V-O/Mo-W-O(VM/WM), Mo-W-O/Mo-V-O(WM/VM) and mechanical mixtures of Mo-V-O and Mo-W-O(M-VM+WM) were prepared and characterized by BET, XRD, SEM and EPMA. Catalytic activity of these catalysts was tested in a continuous fixed bed reactor. In WVM catalysts small amount of tungsten added to VM increased surface area and selectivity of acrylic acid, but excess amount of tungsten decreased reaction rate of acrolein and selectivity. VM/WM catalysts, VM supported on WM, showed higher activity and selectivity than WM/VM catalysts where WM is supported on VM. Phase cooperation between WM and VM was observed in mechanical mixture of WM and VM and they showed higher yield than WM or VM.

산업이 고도화, 다원화, 세계화되고 있는 현대사회는 다기능성, 고물성, 극한 내구성을 가지며 환경 친화적이면서 에너지 효율을 극대화시킬 수 있는 다기능 소재의 개발을 요구하고 있다. 이러한 시점에서 다양한 물성을 동시에 발현이 가능한 코팅 소재는 향후 미래에 중요한 원천소재로서 주목되고 있다. 특히, 환경에 의해 쉽게 물성 및 구조의 변화가 쉬운 종래의 코팅소재와는 달리, 다양한 외부환경에서도 미세 구조 및 물성을 안정적으로 유지할 수 있는 신개념의 코팅 소재의 개발이 절실히 요구되고 있다. 이를 위해서는 코팅소재의 다 성분화가 필수적이다. 최근의 코팅 기술은 2가지 이상의 물성, 특히 서로 상반되는 물성을 동시에 구현할 수 있는 소재의 개발을 요구하고 있다. 이러한 물성의 구현을 위하여 더 많은 성분으로 구성되며 더욱 복잡한 조직으로 구성된 코팅층에 대한 개발이 필요하다. 본 연구에서 목표로 하는 신 개념의 원천소재기술은 4 성분계 이상의 원료 물질을 단일 타겟으로 제조하여, 단순한 코팅공정으로서 단일 코팅층 내에 다양한 성분상이 10 nm 미만 크기의 나노 결정립/나노 비정질로 구성된 나노 복합 구조로 형성되도록 하는 기술을 개발하고자 하는 것이다. 이는 복합기능 3 이상의 다기능성 부여는 물론, 그림 1에 명시되어 있는 극한 기능성(광대역 윤활성, 전자 이동 제어에 의한 온도 저항 계수 및 전기 저항 조절, 고온 열적 안정성, 내산화성, 고열전도율, 초저마찰/내구성/초고경도성 등)이 구현되도록 하는 소재 개발과 원하는 물성을 구현할 수 있는 나노 복합 코팅층의 형성 공정으로 구성된다. 다성분계 모물질의 개발이 중요한 이유는 다수의 성분 원소를 합금 상태로 형성시킴으로서, 단일 소스에 의해 다양한 원소를 동시에 스퍼터링 및 증착이 가능하도록 할 수 있다는 장점을 가지기 때문이다. 특히, 타겟의 미세구조를 나노구조화 하는것을 통해, 스퍼터링 yield의 차이가 큰 원소일지라도 균일하게 증착시킬 수 있는 방법을 제시하고자한다. 이러한 연구는 다수의 성분 타겟을 사용함으로서 장비의 복잡성, 코팅의 재현성, 대형화 등의 문제점을 본질적으로 갖고 있는 기존 PVD 공정의 문제점을 해결하기 위한 최적의 대안이라할 수 있다. 본 발표에서는 3가지 이상의 다기능성 구현을 위한 가장 중요한 원천기술이라 할 수 있는 다성분계 타겟 모물질 제조 기술에 대해 소개하고자 한다.

In this study, the optimum conditions for the LPME (liquid phase microextraction) were investigated to overcome several shortcomings of traditional liquid-liquid extraction method. The LPME, which is automatic and dynamic, was used to analyze the five pesticides (dementon-S-methyl, diazinon, parathion, fenitrothion, EPN) extracted from vegetable, and HP 6890 GC/NPD was used as an analytic instrument. It was possible to optimize the extraction condition using the automatic LPME. The optimum extraction rate was obtained at pH 3.0 and $100{\mu}g/mL$ of salt concentration and standard curve showed linearity with over $R^2=0.9921$ in the range of $0.2{\sim}10{\mu}g/g$. The relative standard deviations were 7.7%, 9.8%, 7.8%, 9.7% and 8.2% in the $5.0{\mu}g/g$ concentration of dementon-S-methyl, diazinon, parathion, fenitrothion and EPN, respectively. The acquired accuracies were satisfactory showing 12.7%, 7.8%, 10.4%, -6.7% and -0.7% for dementon-S-methyl, diazinon, parathion, fenitrothion and EPN respectively.

Fouling is caused by sedimentation and corrosion of polymer, heavy paraffine, chemicals, heavy organics, asphaltene, etc. in the entire chemical process of heat exchanger, boiler, desalter, etc. Fouling phenomena remains a serious operating problem which results in increased energy consumption, increased pressure drops, reduction or complete loss of products yield, and increased maintenance costs. In order to calculate the separated amounts of foulants and to control the fouling process, the predictive model is developed which is based on Scott & Magat polymer solution theory, Peng-Robinson EOS, BWR EOS, and continuous and multicomponent thermodynamics.
