The adsorption of reactive orange 16 (RO 16) dye by activated carbon was investigated using the amount of adsorbent, pH, initial concentration, contact time and temperature as adsorption variables. The investigated process parameters were separation coefficient, rate constant, rate controlling step, activation energy, enthalpy, entropy, and free energy. The adsorption of RO 16 was the highest at pH 3 due to the electrostatic attraction between the cations (H⁺) on the surface of the activated carbon and the sulfonate ions and hydroxy ions possessed by RO 16. Isotherm data were fitted into Langmuir, Freundlich and Temkin isotherm models by applying the evaluated separation factor of Langmuir (RL=0.459~0.491) and Freundlich (1/n=0.398~0.441). Therefore, the adsorption operation of RO 16 by activated carbon was confirmed as an appropriate removal method. Temkin's adsorption energy indicated that this adsorption process was physical adsorption. The adsorption kinetics studies showed that the adsorption of RO 16 follows the pseudo-second-order kinetic model and that the rate controlling step in the adsorption process was the intraparticle diffusion step. The positive enthalpy change indicated an endothermic process. The negative Gibbs free energy change decreased in the order of -3.16 <-11.60 <-14.01 kJ/mol as the temperature increased. Therefore, it was shown that the spontaneity of the adsorption process of RO 16 increases with increasing temperature.

Adsorption characteristics for homologous xanthates on quartz surface has been investigated by FT-IR spectroscopy to understand the adsorption mechanism in relation with verification of the influence of surfactants on the stability of hydrophilic suspended solids in aqueous system. Contact angle measurement for water droplets on quartz surface treated with xanthate was also conducted as a supplementary study for spectroscopic investigation to grant a reliability to the interpretation of experimental results. It has been observed that monolayer of ethyl xanthate was formed on quartz surface as the adsorption progressed and double layer of ethyl xanthate was formed eventually through the reverse oriented adsorption of xanthate molecules on the monolayer. Similar trend of adsorption to the case of ethyl xanthate was found for propyl and butyl xanthates and adsorption was observed to occur more rapidly as the number of carbon atom in alkyl group of xanthate homologs increased. Thermodynamic aspect of adsorption was discussed using Young's equation and the variation in adsorption rate was examined according to the concentration of ethyl xanthate. Based on the result, it has been concluded that the adsorption features of surfactant on substrate in aquatic system is governed by molecular structure and concentration of surfactant and its residual time in aqueous environment as dissolved state also influences greatly the stability of hydrophilic suspended particles.

The phase change electrode board for the bio-information detection through electrical property response of phase change material was developed in this study. We manufactured the electrode board using Aluminum first that is widely used in conventional semiconductor device process. Without further treatment, these aluminum electrodes tend to contain voids in PETEOS(plasma enhanced tetraethyoxysilane) material that are easily detected by cross-sectional SEM(Scanning Electron Microscope). The voids can be easily attacked and transformed into holes in between PETEOS and electrodes after etch back and washing process. In order to resolve this issue of Al electrode board, we developed a electrode board manufacturing method using low resistivity TiN, which has advantages in terms of the step-coverage of phase change($Ge_2Sb_2Te_5$, GST) thin film as well as thermodynamic stability, without etch back and washing process. This TiN material serves as the top and bottom electrode in PRAM(Phase-change Random Access Memory). The good connection between the TiN electrode and GST thin film was confirmed by observing the cross-section of TiN electrode board using SEM. The resistances of amorphous and crystalline GST thin film on TiN electrodes were also measured, and 1000 times difference between the amorphous and crystalline resistance of GST thin film was obtained, which is well enough for the signal detection.

The cathodic reactions of lead anodic films formed in phosphoric acid, oxalic acid and sodium hydroxide solutions and the reactivities of Di-iso-butylnitrosoamine (DBNA) in sea water at $15\sim30^{\circ}C$ were studied by means of constant current-potential method. Besides, various contants and thermodynamic quantities obtained in the experiment were also do-scribed to explain the reactivities of protons that entered in the anodic film by being transferred across the metal-oxide interface. The electrode reactions of lead anodic film formed in sodium hydroxide solution in 60mM DBNA+0.5M NaCl did not occur because of complete insulator formed on anodic film. The values of $(\partial\triangle E_{H^+}/\partial T)_{i=const}$, estimated with Bead anodic films formed in phosphoric acid in 60mM DBNA+0.5M NaCl and 60mM $DBNA+6\%_{\circ}$ sea water were $-0.006\;V/^{\circ}C\;and\;-0.005\;V/^{\circ}C$, thus being nearly coincided, but the values of $(\partial E_o/\partial T)_{i=o}$ were $0.002\;V/^{\circ}C\;and\;-0.002\;V/^{\circ}C$, being completely inversed.

The interactions of 4-chlorobenzoic acid with the micellar system of various cationic, nonionic, and mixed surfactant systems were studied by the UV/Vis spectrophotometric method. The solubilization constants ($K_s$) of 4-chlorobenzoic acid into those micellar systems have been measured at various temperatures and various thermodynamic parameters for the solubilization of 4-chlorobenzoic acid have been calculated and analyzed from those changes. The results show that the values of ${\Delta}G^o_s$ are all negative within the measured temperature range and that the values of ${\Delta}H^o_s$ and ${\Delta}S^o_s$ are all positive. The effects of alkyl-group's length of surfactant molecules on the solubilization of 4-chlorobenzoic acid have been also measured. The values of $K_s$ were dependent simultaneously on the alkyl-group's length and the kind of head-group in surfactant molecules. From these changes we can postulate the solubilization site and the degree of interaction of 4-chlorobenzoic acid with the micellar systems.

In this study, the natural ventilation pressure resulting from the large altitude difference which is a characteristic of high radioactive waste repository and the caloric value of the heat emitted by wastes was calculated and based on the results, natural ventilation quantities were calculated. A high radioactive waste repository can be considered as being operated through closed cycle thermodynamic processes similar to those of thermal engines. The heat produced by the heating of high radioactive wastes in the underground repository is added to the surrounding air, and the air goes up through the upcast vertical shaft due to the added heat while working on its surroundings. Part of the heat added by the work done by the air can be temporarily changed into mechanical energy to promote the air flow. Therefore, if a sustained and powerful heat source exists in the repository, the heat source will naturally enable continued cyclic flows of air. Based on this assumption, the quantity of natural ventilation made during the disposal of high radioactive wastes in a deep geological layer was mathematically calculated and based on the results, natural ventilation pressure of $74{\sim}183$Pa made by the stack effect was identified along with the resultant natural ventilation quantity of $92.5{\sim}147.7m^3/s$. The result of an analysis by CFD was $82{\sim}143m^3/s$ which was very similar to the results obtained by the mathematical method.

Cryogenic spray characteristics of a nitrogen swirl injector operating in supercritical environment have been numerically investigated. By comparing the equation of states(EOS) used for supercritical condition, SRK EOS was applied to predict the nitrogen thermodynamic property under supercritical environment. A Chung's method was implemented for the calculation of viscosity and conductivity and Takahashi's correlation based on Fuller's Theorem was implemented for the calculation of diffusion coefficient. By injecting the nitrogen with 5 bar differential pressure into 50 bar chamber filled with nitrogen, numerical simulation has been conducted. The dynamic Smagorinsky sub-grid scale (SGS) model has been compared with the algebraic Smagorinsky SGS model using FFT frequency analysis. The instability at the liquid film and gas core inside injector and the propagation of pressure oscillation into the injector has been investigated. The spreading angle of swirl injector obtained by numerical calculation has been validated with experimental result.

Tris(2-cyclohexylaminoethyl)amine (L) was synthesized by the Schiff base condensation reaction of tris(2-aminoethyl)amine with cyclohexanone, followed by reduction. The thermodynamic characteristics, mole ratio and formation constant of [Zn(II)-L] complex were measured by the cyclic voltammetry and isothermal titration. In the case of Zn(II), well-defined cathodic and anodic peak were obtained at -1.02V and -0.48V vs Ag/AgCl , respectively. For the [Zn(II)-L] complex, both peaks were obtained at -1.19V and -0.45V vs Ag/AgCl, respectively. In addition, the peak height gradually increases as the scan rate increases, suggesting that the currents obtained were diffusion - controlled. The mole ratio and stability constant of the complex measured cyclic voltammerty were 1:1 and logK$_f$= 5.8, respectively. And the mole ratio and stability constant of the complexe calculated by isothermal titration method was 1:1 and logK =5.4, respectively. ${\Delta}$H, ${\Delta}$G and T${\Delta}$S for the complex formation were -53.0 kJ/mol, -31.1 kJ/mol, and -21.9 J/K at 25 ${\circ}$C, respectively.

The thermodynamic dissociation constants of $[Co(en)]_3Cl_3\;and\;[Co(NH_3)_6Cl_3$ in aqueous solutions at $25{\circ}$ and at the pressure from 1 bar to 2000 bars were measured by conductometric method. The dissociation constants were increased with pressure elevation because of volume decreasing by the formation of charged ions during dissociation reaction. That is, the $pK^T$ values of $[Co(en)]_3Cl_3$ were 2.16 for I bar, 2.08 for 500 bars, 2,08 for 1000 bars, 2.05 for 1500 bars and 2.03 for 2000 bars, respectively and those of $[Co(NH_3)_6Cl_3$ were 2.02 for 1 bar 1.96 for 500 bars, 1.90 for 1000 bars, 1. 88 for 1500 bars and 1. 87 for 2000 bars, respectively. Comparing and analyzing the values of Stokes' radii and $K^T$, the formation of ion pair compound was affected by not only the electrostatic interaction, but also the Interal Conjugate Base(ICB), which was increased by the elevation of the pressure.

In this study, the effects of two different casting methods (gravity casting and, diecasting) and various solid-solution conditions on the mechanical properties of ASC (Al-10.5wt%Si-1.75wt%Cu) and ALDC12 (Al-10.3wt%Si-1.72wt%Cu-0.76wt%Fe-0.28wt% Mn-0.32wt%Mg-0.9wt%Zn) alloys were investigated. A thermodynamic solidification analysis program (PANDAT) was used to predict the liquidus, solidus, and phases of the used alloys. In the results of an XRD analysis, ${\beta}$-AlFeSi peaks were observed only in the ALDC12 alloy regardless of the casting method or SST (solid-solution treatment) conditions. However, according to the results of a FE-SEM observation, both ${\theta}(Al_2Cu)$ and ${\beta}$-AlFeSi were found to exist besides ${\alpha}$-Al and eutectic Si in the gravity-casted ASC alloy at $500^{\circ}C$ after a SST of 120min. The ${\alpha}$-AlFeSi and ${\beta}$-AlFeSi phases including the eutectic phases were also found to exist in the ALDC12 alloy. The results of a microstructural observation and analyses by XRD, FE-SEM and EDS were in good agreement with the PANDAT results. The gravity-casted ALDC12 and ASC specimens showed the highest Y.S. and UTS values after aging for three hours at $180^{\circ}C$ after a SST at $500^{\circ}C$ for 30min. At longer solid-solution treatment times at $500^{\circ}C$ in the gravity-casted ALDC12 and ASC specimens, the elongations of the ASC alloys increased, whereas they decreased slightly in the ALDC12 alloys.
