Effect of improvement of the dielectric barrier discharge (DBD) plasma system on the inactivation performance of bacteria were investigated. The improvement of plasma reactor was performed by combination with the basic plasma reactor and UV process or combination with the basic plasma reactor and circulation system which was equipped with gas-liquid mixer. Experimental results showed that tailing effect was appeared after the exponential decrease in basic plasma reactor. There was no enhancement effect on the Ralstonia Solanacearum inactivation with combination of basic plasma process and UV process. The application of gas-liquid mixing device on the basic plasma reactor reduced inactivation time and led to complete sterilization. The effect existence of gas-liquid mixing device, voltage, air flow rate (1 ~ 5 L/min), water circulation rate (2.8 ~ 9.4 L/min) in gas-liquid mixing plasma, plasma voltage and UV power of gas-liquid mixing plasma+UV process were evaluated. The optimum air flow rate, water circulation rate, voltage of gas-liquid mixing system were 3 L/min, 3.5 L/min and 60 V, respectively. There was no enhancement effect on the Ralstonia Solanacearum inactivation with combination of gas-liquid mixing plasma and UV process.

This paper introduces an adaptive and integrated utterance verification (UV) framework using minimum verification error (MVE) training as a new set of solutions suitable for real applications. UV is traditionally considered an add-on procedure to automatic speech recognition (ASR) and thus treated separately from the ASR system model design. This traditional two-stage approach often fails to cope with a wide range of variations, such as a new speaker or a new environment which is not matched with the original speaker population or the original acoustic environment that the ASR system is trained on. In this paper, we propose an integrated solution to enhance the overall UV system performance in such real applications. The integration is accomplished by adapting and merging the target model for UV with the acoustic model for ASR based on the common MVE principle at each iteration in the recognition stage. The proposed iterative procedure for UV model adaptation also involves revision of the data segmentation and the decoded hypotheses. Under this new framework, remarkable enhancement in not only recognition performance, but also verification performance has been obtained.

As one of the eletronic device industries has been developed by using a recent printing method, the consumption of Ag paste has been on the rise as well. The printing method has simple processes in comparison with other methods. Also it enables to be large-scaled and to lower price ranges. If UV curing system would be applied to the printing method, energy consumption and dangerousness from curing system can be minimized in a short period of time so that its method can be more eco-friendly. This study conducted an experiment in order to make UV curing Ag paste which is feasible to implement micro patterns with different dispersing agents. The purpose of the study is to analysis the suitable printability for micro pattern and to test dispersibility, hardening properties, conductivity and adhesive stength by measuring viscosity, TI(thixotropy index), G', G", $tan{\delta}$(G"/G') after making paste. We have experimented with four dispersing agents. After We did an analysis of characteristic of rheology, conductivity and adhesive stength, etc, We confirmed that the paste added FP 3060 has excellent dispersibility, conductivity and adhesive stength. If the paste has excellent dispersibility, we will expect that micro pattern is made by that.

In this study, we propose an advanced nanoindentaion test, Nano Pillar Compression Test (NPCT) to measure a stress-strain relation for micro scale polymer structures. Firstly, FEM analysis is performed to research behavior of micro polymer pillars in several specimen aspect ratios and different friction conditions between specimen and tip. Based on the FEM results, micro scale UV-curable polymer pillars are fabricated on a substrate by Nano Stereo Lithography (NSL). To measure their mechanical properties, uniaxial compression test is performed using nanoindentation apparatus with flat-ended diamond tip. In addition, the dependency of compression properties on loading condition and specimen size are discussed.

Recently, the use of UVC lamps inside building air-conditioning system has been increasing in both medical and nonmedical buildings for the control of environmental microorganisms. In the present study, irradiance performance test of UVC lamp was carried out and surface sterilization effect of UV ray was investigated by using UV ray irradiation experimental chamber and pilot system. Experimental results show that the effective irradiance of UVC lamp is strongly dependent on air velocity and temperature with exception of relative huminity in air-conditioning system. An individual microbiological kill effectiveness experiment also shows that the fractional kill of two microbiological samples such as E. Coli and Legionella is roughly the same as the estimated fractional kill in the case of chamber test and pilot system test.

Efficient defluorination of perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA) was achieved by integrating UV irradiation and $Fe^{2+}$ activation of persulfate ($S_2O{_8}^{2-}$). It was found that the UV-$Fe^{2+}$, $Fe^{2+}-S_2O{_8}^{2-}$, and UV-$S_2O{_8}^{2-}$ processes caused defluorination efficiency of 6.4%, 1.6% and 23.2% for PFOA at pH 5.0 within 5 h, respectively, but a combined system of UV-$Fe^{2+}-S_2O{_8}^{2-}$ dramatically promoted the defluorination efficiency up to 63.3%. The beneficial synergistic behavior between $Fe^{2+}-S_2O{_8}^{2-}$ and UV-$S_2O{_8}^{2-}$ was demonstrated to be dependent on $Fe^{2+}$ dosage, initial $S_2O{_8}^{2-}$ concentration, and solution pH. The decomposition of PFOA resulted in generation of shorter-chain perfluorinated carboxylic acids (PFCAs), formic acid and fluoride ions. The generated PFCAs intermediates could be further defluorinated by adding supplementary $Fe^{2+}$ and, $S_2O{_8}^{2-}$ and re-adjusting solution pH in later reaction stage. The much enhanced PFOA defluorination in the UV-$Fe^{2+}-S_2O{_8}^{2-}$ system was attributed to the fact that the simultaneous employment of UV light and $Fe^{2+}$ not only greatly enhanced the activation of $S_2O{_8}^{2-}$ to form strong oxidizing sulfate radicals ($SO{_4}^{\cdot-}$), but also provided an additional decarboxylation pathway caused by electron transfer from PFOA to in situ generated $Fe^{3+}$.

This study investigated the effect of chlorine dose and chlorine reaction time for the formation of haloacetic acids (HAAs). According to the results, HAA formation was highly affected by chlorine dose and chlorine reaction time. HAA formation reached a plateau value at 30 mg/L of chlorine dose and 24 hr of chlorine reaction time. For the speciation of formed HAAs in the test water, the concentration of brominated-HAAs was significantly lower than that of chlorinated-HAAs because of low level of bromide ion concentration in the test water. It also investigated the removal efficiency of HAA precursors by several unit processes, such as ozone alone, UV alone, and combined ozone/UV system. Of them, ozone/UV system was proved as the best process to control the HAAs formation. The increase of the brominated-HAAs was observed during ozonation with and without UV irradiation showing the slight increase of total HAA concentrations.

본 논문에서는 UV 임프린트 기반의 평면 광 회로층을 이용한 산소농도 검출용 집적형 형광 프로브 모듈을 제안하였다. 제안된 형광 프로부 모듈은 광원과 형광 신호를 고효율로 전송할 수 있게 동일 광 경로를 가지는 비대칭 $1{\times}2$ 빔 분배기 형태로 설계되었으며, 이를 UV 임프린트 공정을 통해 제작하였다. 제작된 광 회로층의 끝단에 최적의 형광 염료 농도로 센서막을 코팅하여 산소 농도 검출용 광학 프로브 모듈을 구현하였다. 제작된 형광 프로부 모듈을 이용한 산소 농도 측정용 센서 시스템은 0%에서 20%의 가스 농도 범위에서 약 0.3%의 분해능까지 산소 농도를 검출 할 수 있었다. 이러한, 평면 광회로 기반의 형광 프로브 모듈은 저가의 집적형 산소 센서 검출 시스템을 가능하게 하여, 화학분야, 바이오 분야, 그리고 대기 및 수질 환경을 모니터링 하는 분야에 적용될 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

본 연구에서는(Fe$^{3+}$+chelating agent)/H$_2$O$_2$ 공정 [Fe(III) 1mM, ocalate 6mM, H$_2$O$_2$ 3%, pH 6]과 UV/(Fe$^{3+}$+chelating agent)/H$_2$O$_2$ 공정 [UV dose 17.4kWh/L, Fe(III) 1mM, oxalate 6mM, H$_2$O$_2$ 1%, pH6]에서 BTEX(benzene, toluene, ethylbenzene, xylene)를 분해하기위해 다양한 착제를 토입, 그 분해효율을 비교하였다. 착제의 종류는 catechol, NTA, gallic, acetyl acetone, succinic, acetate, EDTA, citrate, malonate, 그리고 oxalate,총 10가지 종류의 착제를 사용하였으며, 그 중,acetate를 착제로 사용한 경우, 가장 높은 분해효율을 나타내었다. 또한, UV를 조사한 경우, 모든 착제에 대한 BTEX의 분해효율이 UV를 조사하지 않은 (Fe$^{3+}$+chelating agent)/H$_2$O$_2$ 공정의 분해효율보다 높은 것으로 나타났다. 또한BTEX와 무연 휘발유의 첨가제로 사용되고 있는 MTBE(methl tert-butylether)의 혼합복합물(각각의 농도는 200mg/L)에 대해서도 acetate를 착제로 사용한 UV/(Fe$^{3+}$+chelating agent)/H$_2$O$_2$공정에서 높은 분해효율을 보였다. 이 경우, BTEX는 반응시간 180분 만에 완전 분해되었으며, MTBE의 경우, 85%의 분해효율을 보였다. 이러한 실험 결과는 acetate를 착제로 사용한 UV/(Fe$^{3+}$+chelating agent)/H$_2$O$_2$공정은 BTEX 분해효율뿐만 아니라, BTEX와 MTBE복합오염물의 분해효율도 증가시킬수 있음을 입증하고 있다.
