To separate carbon dioxide from a flue gas, membranes for gas separation was fabricated from polystyrene-b-polybutadiene (SB) diblock copolymer blends with poly(phenylene oxide), PPO. SB diblock copolymer formed miscible blends with PPO in the experimental range (lower than or equal to 70 wt% PPO). When the blend contained PPO whose composition is in the range of 40-50 wt%, the discontinuous phase of polybutadiene block in SB diblock copolymer, was changed to discrete phase, while polystyrene blocks containing PPO was changed to the continuous phase. A sudden decrease of the gas permeability and a sudden increase of the gas selectivity was observed at these blend compositions. A gas separation membranes having excellent mechanical properties and exhibiting advantages in gas permeability and selectivity could be fabricated from blends containing more than 50 wt% PPO.

Non-thermal plasma decomposition of gas-phase styrene was investigated in this study using three different types of plasma reactors; dielectric-barrier discharge (DBD) reactor, surface discharge (SD) reactor and plasma-driven catalyst (PDC) reactor packed with 2.0 wt% $Ag/TiO_2$ catalysts. The main parameters used for the comparative assessment of the plasma reactors include the decomposition efficiency, carbon balance, byproduct distribution, COx ($CO+CO_2$) selectivity and COx yield. The SD and the DBD reactors showed better conversion efficiency of styrene than that of the PDC reactor due to their larger capability in ozone formation. On the other hand, the PDC reactor showed better carbon balance, the yield and the selectivity of COx. The required specific input energies to achieve 100% carbon balance from the decomposition of 100 ppmv styrene using the plasma alone reactors and the PDC reactor were 420 J/L and 110 J/L, respectively. The major decomposition products in gas-phase were CO, $CO_2$ and HCOOH regardless of the types of plasma reactors. In the case of SD and DBD reactors, the $CO_2$ selectivity ranged in $39.5{\sim}60%$. The $CO_2$ selectivity in the PDC reactor was in range of $68.5{\sim}75.5%$.

Molecularly imprinted microsphere for chloramphenicol (CAP) with high adsorption capacity and excellent selectivity is prepared by aqueous suspension polymerization, in which chloramphenicol is used as template molecule and ethyl acetate as porogen. The CAP-imprinted microspheres are used as high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) stationary phase and packed into stainless steel column ($150mm{\times}4.6mm$ i.d.) for selective separation of chloramphenicol. HPLC analysis suggests that chloramphenicol can be distinguished from not only its structural analogs but also other broad-spectrum antibiotic such as erythromycin and tetracycline. In addition, the binding experiments of CAP-imprinted microspheres are carried out in ethanol/water (1:4, V:V), the results indicate that the maximum apparent static binding capacity of molecularly imprinted microspheres is up to 66.64 mg $g^{-1}$ according to scatchard model.

The etching with high selectivity of silicon dioxide over silicon nitride is essential in semiconductor fabrication, and gas phase etch (GPE) can increase the competitiveness of the selective dielectric etch. In this work, GPE of plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposited SiO₂ was performed, and the effects of process parameters, such as temperature, partial pressure ratio, and gas supply cycle, are investigated in terms of etch rate and within wafer uniformity. Employing multiple regression analysis, the importance of each parameter elements is analyzed.

The purpose of this study is to optimize the selectivity of mobile phase solvents for separation of 25 phenols in reversed phase liquid chromatography and to accomplish the simultaneous preconcentration and separation of trace phenols from water samples. Phenols used in this study were classified into three groups, chloro-, methyl-, and nitrophenols. Quaternary solvent mobile phases were employed to improve the selectivity. Overlapping resolution maps(ORM) as a statistical simplex techniques was used to predict the optimum solvent system. Additional criterion such as pH and temperature were also investigated. In order to improve the resolution and decrease the analysis time, isoselective multisolvent gradient elution system was employed with ORM-Prism method. The simultaneous preconcentration and separation of trace phenols from water samples were performed by using XAD-2/Dowex 1-X8 tandem column. When the extraction efficiency was evaluated by sampling up to 1 L of distilled water, recovery of the phenols, except phenol, was above 90% and the limit of detection of the phenols was 5 ppb. The XAD-2/Dowex 1-X8 method was superior to C18 cartridge in terms of recovery and selectivity.

Styrene-acrylamide co-polymer was immobilized on porous partially sub-$2{\mu}m$ silica monolith particles and inner surface of fused silica capillary ($50{\mu}m$ ID and 28 cm length) to result in ${\mu}LC$ and CEC stationary phases, respectively, for separation of anomeric D-glucose derivatives. Reversed addition-fragmentation transfer (RAFT) polymerization was incorporated to induce surface polymerization. Acrylamide was employed to incorporate amide-functionality in the stationary phase. The resultant ${\mu}LC$ and CEC stationary phases were able to separate isomers of D-glucose derivatives with high selectivity and efficiency. The mobile phase of 75/25 (v/v) acetonitrile (ACN)/water with 0.1% TFA, was used for HPLC with a packed column (1 mm ID, 300 mm length). The effects of pH and ACN composition on anomeric separation of D-glucose in CEC have been examined. A mobile phase of 85/15 (v/v) ACN/30 mM sodium acetate pH 6.7 was found the optimized mobile phase for CEC. The CEC stationary phase also gave good separation of other saccharides such as maltotriose and Dextran 1500 (MW~1500) with good separation efficiency (number of theoretical plates ~300,000/m).

The separation of benzene-cyclohexane mixture using (O/W)/O emulsion liquid membrane was studied. The operating parameters which can affect the selectivity, benzene yield, and emulsion size distribution were examined and determined by the batch type operation. The unsteady state and steady state extraction behavior in continuous pulse stirred reactor(CPSR) were verified. The optimum conditions for benzene selectivity and yield in batch operation were as follows; emulsion mixing intensity 4000 rpm, Tween 80 concentration 0.4%, volume ratio of membrane phase to internal phase 0.75, volume ratio of dispersed phase to continuous phase 0.5, and permeation time 10 minutes, As impeller speed increased and the microdrop holdup decreased, the Sauter mean diameter decreased. Turbulence damping parameter of modified Calabrease correlation considering microdrop holdup was 2.28. The optimum conditions of continuous operation were as follows; agitation speed 300 rpm, pulse frequence 2 times/sec, flow rate of continuous phase 30ml/min, and flow rate of emulsion phase 12.0ml/min.

Liquid or gas phase alkylation of isobutane with 1-butene for i-octane production was carried out over Cs- or $NH_4$-exchanged $H_3PW_{12}O_{40}$. Pretreatment temperature of the catalyst played an important role on the catalytic activity of heteropoly acids in the liquid phase alkylation. Cation-exchanged $H_3PW_{12}O_{40}$ showed a better total yield and i-octane selectivity than the mother acid in the liquid phase alkylation, and $(NH_4)_{2.5}H_{0.5}PW_{12}O_{40}$ was more efficient than $Cs_{2.5}H_{0.5}PW_{12}O_{40}$ in terms of i-octane selectivity. It was found that the acidic property (deactivation of acid sites) of the catalyst was closely related to the catalytic activity of Cs- or $NH_4$-exchanged $H_3PW_{12}O_{40}$ in the gas phase alkylation. $C_5-C_7$ were mainly formed in the early stage of gas phase alkylation due to the strong acidic property of the catalyst, whereas $C_8$ and $+C_9$ were mainly produced as the reaction proceeded due to the deactivation of acid sites. $Cs_{2.5}H_{0.5}PW_{12}O_{40}$ showed the highest total yield in the gas phase alkylation among the catalysts examined.
