Titanium dioxide particles with three different average sizes, prepared by three different methods, were incorporated into silica gel pores by impregnation. The titanium dioxide incorporated into the silica gel pores was photoionized by 240-400 nm irradiation at 77 K by a one-photon process to from trapped hole centers on OH group and trapped electron centers on titanium which were detected by electron paramagnetic resonance at 77 K. During the impregnation the smallest size range of TiO2 particles can be incorporated into silica gels with 2.5-1.5 nm pores. However, the largest size range of TiO2 particles can only be incorporated into silica gels with 6-15 nm pores and not into silica gels with 2.5-4 nm pores. The photoyield and stability of photoinduced hole and electron centers depends on the silica pore sizes of silica gels and surface area as well as on the TiO2 loading. In large pore silica gels and large particle size of TiO2, photoinduced charge separation reaches to a plateau at shorter irradiation times and the trapped hole and electron centers are more stable to decay.

Natural gas combustion characteristics of mass produced oxygen carrier particles were investigated in a batch type bubbling fluidized bed reactor. Five particles, NiO/bentonite, OCN601-650, OCN702-1100, OCN703-950, OCN703-1100 were used as oxygen carrier particles. Natural gas and air were used as reactants for reduction and oxidation, respectively. During reduction reaction, high fuel conversion and high $CO_2$ selectivity were achieved for most of oxygen carriers. During oxidation, NO emission was very low. These results indicate that inherent $CO_2$ separation and low NOx combustion are feasible for the natural gas fueled chemical-looping combustion system. Among the five oxygen carriers, OCN703-1100 particle was selected as the best candidate for demonstration of long-term operation in large-scale chemical-looping combustor from the viewpoints of fuel conversion, $CO_2$ selectivity, $CH_4$ concentration, and CO concentration.

Photoelectric charging is a very efficient way of charging small particles. This method can be applied to combustion measurement, electrostatic precipitator, metal separation and control of micro-contamination. To understand the photoelectric charging mechanism, particle charging of silver by exposure to ultraviolet is investigated in this study. Average charges and charge distributions are measured at various conditions, using two differential mobility analyzers, a condensation nucleus counter, and an aerosol electrometer. The silver particles are generated in a spark discharge aerosol generator. After that process, the generated particles are charged in the photoelectric charger using low-pressure mercury lamp that emits ultraviolet having wavelength 253.7 nm. The results show that ultra-fine particles are highly charged by the photoelectric charging. The average charges linearly increase with increasing particle size and the charge distribution change with particle size. These results are discussed by comparison with previous experiments and proposed equations. It is assumed that the coefficient of electron emission probability is affected by initial charge. The results also show that the charge distribution of a particle is dependent on initial charge. Single changed particle, uncharged particle and neutralized particle are compared. The differences of charge distribution in each case increase with increasing particle size.

Mixed-conducting oxide powders, $BaCe_{0.9}Y_{0.1}O_{2.95}$ (BCY) and $SrCe_{0.9}Y_{0.1}O_{2.95}$ (SCY) powders have been prepared by a solid-state reaction method. Xray diffraction patterns of the prepared powders showed the sharp peaks of the $BaCe_{0.9}Y_{0.1}O_{2.95}$ and $SrCe_{0.9}Y_{0.1}O_{2.95}$ phases. The oxide powders that were prepared by attrition milling showed rather large particles and severe necking between particles in FE-SEM images as well as residual reactant ($BaCO_3$) and secondary phases ($SrCeO_3$ and $CeO_2$) in XRD patterns. The oxide powders prepared using ball milling showed particles under approximately 500 nm and typical XRD patterns of the $BaCe_{0.9}Y_{0.1}O_{2.95}$ and $SrCe_{0.9}Y_{0.1}O_{2.95}$ phases. Ceramic membranes of the $BaCe_{0.9}Y_{0.1}O_{2.95}$ and $SrCe_{0.9}Y_{0.1}O_{2.95}$ phases were fabricated by the aerosol deposition method using the oxide powders synthesized.

발전소에서 발생되는 석탄회의 재활용을 위해 석탄회 내의 미연탄소를 제거하기 위한 장치를 개발하여 실험을 수행하였다. 석탄회 중 조림 석탄회가 미연탄소 함량이 높으며 또한 마찰에 의해 정전기적으로 석탄회 내의 미연탄소분은 (+)극성을, 순수 회분은 (-)극성을 띠게 된다는 사실에 근거하여 입도 분급 및 정전기적 분리가 동시에 일어날 수 있는 싸이클론 정전분리장치를 설계하였다. 그리고 분급입도를 조절하기 위하여 싸이클론 내에 vane을 설치하였으며 전극의 형태에 따른 영향을 알아보기 위해 막대형 전극과 Ul(쳔 전극을 설계하여 실험을 수행하였다. 그 결과 막대전극의 경우 미립분의 회수율이 5-10%증가하였으며 grid전극의 경우 약 15%까지 증가하였다. 그러나 미연탄소 함량은 조립분의 경우 전극 설치 전보다 크게 증가하였으나 미립분의 경우 그다지 변하지 않았다. 따라서 본 시료의 경우 전기장을 형성시킴으로써 같은 미연탄소 함유량을 갖는 정제석탄회의 회수율은 크게 증대시킬 수 있음을 확인하였다.

Isotope ratio analysis of nuclear materials in individual particles is of great importance for nuclear safeguards. Although secondary ion mass spectrometry (SIMS) and thermal ionization mass spectrometry (TIMS) are utilized for the analysis of individual uranium particles, few studies were conducted for the analysis of individual uranium-plutonium mixed oxide particles. In this study, we applied SIMS and inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS) to the isotope ratio analysis of individual U-Pu mixed oxide particles. In the analysis of individual U-Pu particles prepared from mixed solution of uranium and plutonium standard reference materials, accurate $^{235}U/^{238}U$, $^{240}Pu/^{239}Pu$ and $^{242}Pu/^{239}Pu$ isotope ratios were obtained with both methods. However, accurate analysis of $^{241}Pu/^{239}Pu$ isotope ratio was impossible, due to the interference of the $^{241}Am$ peak to the $^{241}Pu$ peak. In addition, it was indicated that the interference of the $^{238}UH$ peak to the $^{239}Pu$ peak has a possibility to prevent accurate analysis of plutonium isotope ratios. These problems would be avoided by a combination of ICP-MS and chemical separation of uranium, plutonium and americium in individual U-Pu particles.

As a highly hydrophilic fibrillar mineral in nature, attapulgite (ATP) is a promising new additive for preparation of ultrafiltration (UF) hybrid membrane. In this work, ATP particles, which were grafted with a new Gemini surfactant of Ethyl Stearate-di(octadecyl dimethyl ammonium chloride) to detach the crystal bundles to single crystal and enhance the uniform dispersion in an organic polymer matrix, were incorporated into poly(vinylidene fluoride) (PVDF) matrix, and PVDF/Gemini-ATP hybrid membranes for adsorptive removal of Ni(II) ions from aqueous solution were prepared via a phase inversion method. Chemical composition, crystalization and morphology of the modified ATP were characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), Transmission electron microscope (TEM) and X-ray diffraction (XRD), respectively. The morphology of the hybrid membrane was characterized by Scanning electron microscopy (SEM), the performance of permeability, hydrophilicity and adsorption of Ni(II) ions were studied, and the adsorption kinetics of the PVDF/ATP hybrid membranes were particular concerned. The results showed that the hybrid membrane displayed a good thermal stability and hydrophilicity. Comparing with PVDF membrane, the hybrid membrane possessed good adsorption capacity for Ni(II) ions, and the adsorption kinetics fit well with Lagergren second-order equation.

Cell separation from a heterogenous mixture sample is an essential process for downstream analysis in biological, chemical, and clinical applications. This study demonstrates an integrated hybrid device of the viscoelastic focusing in a straight rectangular channel and subsequent size-based separation using acoustophoresis to attain high efficiency and separation tunability. For particle pre-alignment in a viscoelastic fluid, the flow rate higher than 10 μl/min was required. Surface acoustic wave-based lateral migration of particles with different sizes (13 and 27 ㎛) was examined at various applied voltages and flow rate conditions. Therefore, the flow rate of 100 μl/min and the applied voltage of 20 V_pp can be used for size-based particle separation.

전북 익산지역의 한우사육에 사용한 황토를 gravel, sand, silt, coarse clay, fine clay으로 입도분리하여 각 분리된 시료에 대해서 광물성분 및 화학적 특성 등을 검토하였다 광물성분의 분석 결과, gravel과 sand에는 석영과 장석이 주로 포함되고, clay와 silt떼는 카오린광물 및 일라이트 등의 점토광물이 우세하며, 산화철광물은 fine clay에서 주로 포함된다. 주성분원소에서는 입경이 작은 시료일수록 Al, Fe, $H_2O$의 함량이 증가하여 점토광물의 함량 증가와 잘 일치하였다. 미량성분원소에서는 Zn, Rb, Sr, Ba, Pb등이 입도에 따라 큰 함량 차이를 보였다. Ba, Sr은 장석이 많은 sand에 다량 함유되어 주로 장석에 존재하는 것으로 나타났다 본래 황토 시료에 상당량 함유된 Pb 및 Sm은 입도분리된 시료에는 적은 함량을 나타내어, 입도 분리 과정에서 제거되기 쉬운 형태로 존재하는 것으로 보인다. Nb, La, Th, Ce 등은 silt 시료에 가장 많은 함량을 보였다. 이들 이외의 거의 모든 원소에서 점토광물의 함량이 많이 함유된 작은 입도시료에서 미량원소의 함량이 증가하는 경향 나타나 이들 대부분이 점토광물내에 주로 존재하는 것으로 보인다. 교환성양이온 함량과 산 및 알카리에 의한 용탈 원소 함량 등은 입자가 작은 점토시료에서 높게 나타났다. 따라서 가축사료 등 황토의 활용에 있어서 천연상태의 황토를 그대로 사용하는 것보다는 입도 분리에 의한 정제를 행한 미립의 점토분을 주로 사용하는 것이 황토의 이온교환성, 원소 용탈성, 흡착성, 흡수성 등의 특성을 향상시킬 수 있을 것으로 나타났다.
