The present paper relates to an apparatus in which all carbonaceous material such as coal, oil, plastics and any substance having carbon atoms as part of its constituents are reformed(gasified) into syngas at temperature above $1,200^{\circ}C$(KR patent No.0391121, and PCT/KR2001/01717 and PCT/KR2004/001020). It comprises a single-stage reforming reactor without catalyst and a syngas burner as shown in Fig.2. syngas is combusted with $O_2$ gas in the syngas bunter to produce $M_2O$ and $CO_2$ gas with exothermic heat. Reaction products are introduced into the reforming reactor, reaction heat from syngas burner elevate the temperature of reactor above $1,200^{\circ}C$, and reaction products reduce carbonaceous material down to CO and $H_2$ gases. Reactants and heat necessary for the reaction are provided through the syngas burner only, Neither $O_2$ gas nor steam are injected into the reforming reactor. Reformer is made of ceramic inner lining and sst outer casing. Multiple syngas burners may be connected to the reforming reactor in order to increase the syngas output, and a portion of the product syngas is recycled into syngas burner. The present reformer as shown in Fig.2 is suitable to gasify carbonaceous wastes without secondary pollutants formed from oxidation. Further, it can be miniaturized to accompany a fuel cell system as shown in Fig.3 The output syngas may be used to drive a fuel cell and a portion of electrical power generated in a fuel cell is used to heat a compact reformer up to $1,200^{\circ}C$ so that gas/liquid fossil fuel can efficiently reformed into syngas. The fuel cell serves as syngas burner in Fig.2. The reformation reaction is sustained through recycling a portion of product syngas into a fuel cell and using a portion of electric power generated to heat the reformer for continuous operation. Such reforming reactor may be miniaturized into a size of PC, then you have a Personal Reformer(PR).

Candida tropicalis, an osmophilic strain isolated from honeycomb, produced xylitol at a maximal volumetric production rate of 3.5 g $l^{-1}$ $h^{-1}$ from an initial xylose concentration of 200 g $l^{-1}$. Even with a very high xylose concentration, e.g., 350 g $l^{-1}$, this strain produced xylitol at a moderate rate of 2.07 g $l^{-1}$ $h^{-1}$. In a fed-batch fermentation of xylose and glucose, 260 g $l^{-1}$ of xylose was added, and xylitol production was 234 g $l^{-1}$ for 48 h, corresponding to a rate of 4.88 g $l^{-1}$ $h^{-1}$. To increase the xylitol production rate, cells were recycled in a submerged membrane bioreactor with suction pressure and air sparging. In cell-recycle fermentation, the average concentration of xylitol produced per recycle round, total fermentation time, volumetric production rate, and product yield for ten rounds were 180 g $l^{-1}$, 195 h, 8.5 g $l^{-1}$ $h^{-1}$, and 85%, respectively. When cell-recycle fermentation was started with the cell mass contratrated two-fold after batch fermentation and was performed for ten recycle rounds, we achieved a very high production rate of 12 g $l^{-1}$ $h^{-1}$. The production rate and total amount of xylitol produced in cell-recycle fermentation were 3.4 and 11 times higher than in batch fermentation, respectively.

최근, 결정질 실리콘 태양전지 분야에서 저가격화와 공정의 단순화가 가장 중요한 부분으로 대두되고 있다. 특히 태양전지 가격의 대부분을 차지하고 있는 웨이퍼의 저가격화가 가장 큰 이슈로 떠오르면서, 웨이퍼의 저가격화를 실현하기 위한 최선의 방안으로 마이크로 블라스터를 이용한 재생웨이퍼 제작 방법이 대두되고 있다. 마이크로 블라스터를 이용하여 재생웨이퍼를 제작 할 경우, 표면의 요철이 형성되어 반사율이 감소되어 태양전지 내부로 입사하는 빛의 양을 증가시키는 긍정적인 효과가 있다. 또한, 공정비용이 저렴하여 태양전지 저가격화를 실현할 수 있다. 그러나, 마이크로 블라스터를 이용한 공정은 웨이퍼에 물리적인 충격을 주기 때문에 표면에 크랙이 형성되며 식각 잔여물들이 표면에 재흡착되는 단점이 있다. 본 연구에서는 이러한 단점들을 보완하기 위하여 DRE (Damage Remove Etching)를 수행하였다. DRE 공정 후 반사율과 소수 반송자 수명을 측정하여 미세 파티클과 마이크로 크랙의 제거를 확인하였고, 태양전지를 제작하여 효율에 미치는 영향을 분석하였다. 마이크로 블라스터 공정 후 웨이퍼의 소수 반송자 수명은 Bare 웨이퍼에 비해 80% 정도 감소하였으나, DRE 공정 수행 후에는 50% 까지 증가하였음을 확인할 수 있었다. 태양전지 효율을 비교해보면, DRE 공정을 수행한 웨이퍼의 경우 Bare 웨이퍼보다 약 1~2%, DRE 공정을 수행하지 않은 웨이퍼보다 약 3∼5% 증가했음을 확인하였다.

Confocal Reflection Microscopy (CRM) was applied to investigate external fibrillation of different types of fibers such as Kajaani reference fiber, Whatman filter fiber, thermomechanical pulp (TMP), and recycled TMP fiber. It was confirmed that the CRM images are created from surface structures of the fiber cell wall. Confocal Laser Scanning Microscopy (CLSM) captured overall shape of the fiber, but minute details of the surface of the fiber were missed. CRM captured the minute details of the fiber surface. From the CRM and CLSM images, it was observed that the CRM images mainly appeared on the fiber surfaces. External fibrillation of the fiber occurs at the fiber surface, not inside the cell wall. Thus, it was concluded that investigation on the external fibrillation of the fiber was possible by utilizing CRM images. A direct qualtitative and quantitative method for analysis of external fibrillation of fiber was demonstrated by utilizing surface area to volume ratio, volume fraction, and roughness calculated from 3-dimensional images reconstructed from stacks of CRM images from the different fibers.

태양전지용 웨이퍼 제조공정에 있어 Slurry의 가격 비중은 약 68% 정도로 매우 큰 비중을 차지하고 있기 때문에, 제조비용 절감측면과 Wafering 원가혁신 및 산업폐기물 처리비용 절감효과, 환경오염 방지를 위해 Slurry의 순환 사용은 필수적이다. 기존 Slurry를 재생하는 방식은 물리적인 원심분리(데칸터) 방식을 이용한 방법을 사용하고 있으나 미분(微粉)이 남아 있어 재생품질에 한계가 있고, 대부분 액체, 100% 오일과 분리되지 않은 상태로 재생된다. 이 상태를 건조시키는 경우도 순도가 많이 떨어진다. 본 논문에서는 원심분리(데칸터) 방식과 케미컬 방식을 함께 사용하여, 태양전지 Wafering 공정에서 필수적인 Slurry를 재생함에 있어, 원심분리에 의한 재생품질의 한계를 극복할 수 있는 재생기술을 개발하였고, Slurry 재생에 대한 Total Solution을 제공하여 성능을 향상시키고 재생 회수율을 높였다.

해양환경 조건 중 건습반복환경인 간만대는 구조물내 철근부식이 가장 빨리 일어나는 것으로 알려져 있다. 때문에 부식촉진시험 방법 중 간만대 환경을 재현한 시험방법이 가장 활발하게 진행되어왔다. 그러나 많은 연구들이 부식임계농도 추정이나 염화물침투해석에 집중되어 있는 상황이다. 본 논문에서는 건습반복조건의 환경을 재현하여 구조물내 철근부식촉진시험과 염화물 침투해석을 실시하였다. 배합에 사용된 재료의 종류를 변수로 시험을 실시하였으며, 철근부식모니터링 방법으로 갈바닉 전위측정법과 반전지전위법을 사용하여 철근부식의 유무를 판단하였다. 부식촉진시험결과 각 배합별로 부식기간이 차이가 났으며, 순서는 OPC > FA > BS > 고강도 순으로 나타났다. 부식촉진시험과 동일한 조건으로 FEM 내구성 해석 프로그램인 DuCOM, RCPT 시험을 실시하여 실험결과 값에 대한 타당성을 입증하였다.

This research aims to remove nitrogen in the piggery wastewater by combined process with upflow anaerobic sludge blanket (UASB) and biofilm process. For the effective denitrification. anaerobic and anoxic reactors were connected to a reactor. The effluent of aerobix reactor was recycled equally with influent in the upper filter of anaerobic reactor for denitrification and outlet of UBF reactor was connected to the settling tank with $1.5{\;}{\ell}$ capacity and the settling sludge was repeatedly recycled to UASB zone. The organic loading rate of total reactor was operated from 0.4 to $3.1kgCOD/m^{3}/d$ and it was observed that the removal rate of TCOD was 80 to 95 percentage. Ammonia nitrogen was removed over 90 percentage in the less volumetric loading rate than $0.1{\;}kgN/m^{3}/d$. But because of non-limitation of organic materials, it was reduced to 70 percentage in the more volumetric loading rate than $0.6{\;}kgN/m^{3}/d$. But denitrification rate was observed 100 percentage in the all of loading rate. This is caused by the maintenance of optimum temperature, sufficient carbon source, and competition of electron acceptors. The results of COD mass balance at the $1.21{\;}kgCOD/m^{3}/d$ was observed with the 71.7% percentage of influent COD. It was revealed that the most part of organic materials was removed in the aerobic and the anaerobic reactor because 38.4 percentage was conversed into $CH_{4}$ gas and 11 percentage was removed in the aerobic reactor with cell synthesis and metabolism. Besides, 5.7% organics was used to denitrification reaction and 3.7% organics related to sulfate reduction.
