Direct treatment of municipal wastewater by forward osmosis (FO) process was evaluated in terms of water flux decline, reverse salt diffusion, pollutants rejection and concentration efficiency by using synthetic seawater as the draw solution. It was found that when operating in PRO mode (active layer facing the draw solution), although the FO membrane exhibited higher osmotic water flux, more severe flux decline and reverse salt diffusion was also observed due to the more severe fouling of pollutants in the membrane support layer and accompanied fouling enhanced concentration polarization. In addition, although the water flux decline was shown to be lower for the FO mode (active layer facing the feed solution), irreversible membrane fouling was identified in both PRO and FO modes as the water flux cannot be restored to the initial value by physical flushing, highlighting the necessity of chemical cleaning in long-term operation. During the 7 cycles of filtration conducted in the experiments, the FO membrane exhibited considerably high rejection for TOC, COD, TP and $NH_4{^+}-N$ present in the wastewater. By optimizing the volume ratio of seawater draw solution/wastewater feed solution, a concentration factor of 3.1 and 3.7 was obtained for the FO and PRO modes, respectively. The results demonstrated the validity of the FO process for direct treatment of municipal wastewater by using seawater as the draw solution, while facilitating the subsequent utilization of concentrated wastewater for bioenergy production, which may have special implications for the coastline areas.

고효율 박막형 태양전지 제조를 위해 근접승화법에 의한 CdTe박막의 성장을 연구하였다. 내부압력의 변화, 기판과 소스 사이의 거리, 기판과 소스의 온도 등의 변수가 성장속도와 미세구조에 미치는 영향을 관찰했다. 내부압력의 변화에 따라 성장과정이 diffusion limited transport와 sublimation limited transport로 나뉘어지며, 이 두가지 성장방식의 분기점은 기체분자의 평균자유행정거리에 의해 결정되었다. 소스의 형태에 따라서 박막의 성장속도와 미세구조는 큰 차이를 보였으며, 실험을 통해 이러한 차이가 증발표면의 온도강하에 의한 현상임을 규명하였다. 기판과 소스사이의 간격에 따른 성장속도를 해석하기 위해 일방향열해석을 통해 기판과 소스표면의 온도를 계산하였다. X선 회절분석과 표면형상의 관찰을 통해 성장속도가 박막의 미세구조에 영향을 줌을 알았다. 기판의 온도가 증가하면서 박막성장시 (111)로의 우선성장방위가 관찰되었지만 고온이 되면서 다시 random orientation의 경향을 나타냈다.

HVPE(hydride vapor phase epitaxy)법으로 (111) $MgAl_2O_4$기판 위에 $10~240\mu{m}$두께의 GaN를 성장하고, GaN의 두께에 따 광학적 성질을 조사하였다. $MgAl_2O_4$기판 위에 성장된 GaN의 PL 특성은 결정성장온도에서 기판으로부터 Mg이 out-diffusion하여 auto-doping 됨으로써 불순물이 첨가된 GaN의 PL 특성을 나타내었다. 10K의 온도데서 측정된 PL 스펙트럼은 자유여기자와 속박여기자의 재결합천이에 의한 피크들과 불순물과 관련된 도너-억셉터 쌍 사이의 재결합 및 이의 포논 복제에 의한 발광으로 구성되었으며, 깊은 준위로부터의 발광은 나타나지 않았다. 중성 도너에 속박된 여기자 발광 에너지와 라만 $E_2$모드 주파수는 GaN의 두께가 증가함에 따라 지수 함수적으로 감소하였으며, GaN 내의 잔류 응력에 대하여 라만 E2 모드 주파수는$\Delta$$\omega$=3.93$\sigma$($cm^{-1}$/GPa)의 관계로 변화하였다.

For the development of high efficiency and low emission combustion systems, high temperature air combustion technology has been tested by utilizing preheated air over 1100 K and exhaust gas recirculation. In this system, combustion air is diluted with large amount of recirculated exhaust gases, such that the oxygen concentration is relatively low in the reaction zone, leading to low flame temperature. Since, the temperature fluctuations and sound emissions from the flame are small and flame luminosity is low, the combustion mode is expected to be flameless or mild combustion. Experiment was performed to investigate the turbulent flame structure and NO$_x$ emission characteristics in the high temperature air combustion focused on coflowing jet diffusion flames which has a fundamental structure of many practical combustion systems. The effect of turbulence has also been evaluated by installing perforated plate in the oxidizer inlet nozzle. LPG was used as a fuel. Results showed that even though NO$_x$ emission is sensitive to the combustion air temperature, the present high temperature air combustion system produce low NO$_x$ emission because it is operated in low oxygen concentration condition by the high exhaust gas recirculation.

In this study, application of polypropylene hollow fiber membrane contactors for $CO_2$ removal from water in liquid-liquid extraction (LLE) mode was simulated. For this purpose, a steady state 2D mathematical model was developed. In this model axial and radial diffusion was considered to $CO_2$ permeation through the hollow fibers. $CO_2$ laden water is fed at a constant flow rate into the lumen side, permeated through the pores of membrane and at the end of this process, $CO_2$ solution in the lumen side was extracted by means of aqueous diethanolamine (DEA) and chemical reaction. The simulation results were validated with the experimental data and it was found a good agreement between them, which confirmed the reliability of the proposed model. Both simulation and experimental results confirmed the reduction in the percentage of $CO_2$ removal by increment of feed flow rate.

The characteristics of optical waeguides and IDT electrodes fabricated for acousto-optic tunable filters (AOTE) used for optical communications were analyzed. A $Ti:LiNbO_3$ in-diffusion method was employed for the formation of the optical waveguide with a dimension of width $8\mu\textrm{m}$, length $30000\mu\textrm{m}$, and thickness $1150{\AA}$. The diffusion was carried at $1050^{\circ}C$ for 8 houss to pattern the optical waveguide with Ti. The resulted waveguide exhibited a single mode at a 1550nm wavelength range and its propagation loss was less than 0.5dB/cm. The width of IDT, with 10 SAW periods, was $5000\mu\textrm{m}$, S11 reflection characteristics and impedances of th eelectrodes deposited with Au were analyzed using a network analyzer; $48.1\Omega$ at th ecenter frquency of 193MHz for Au deposition thickness of $1500{\AA}$ and $50.7\Omega$ at the center frequency of 192MHz for au deposition thickness of $1600{\AA}$.

Understanding the dynamics of relativistic electron acceleration, loss, and transport in the Earth's radiation belt during magnetic storms is a challenging task. The U.S. National Science Foundation's Geospace Environment Modeling (GEM) has identified five magnetic storms for in-depth study that occurred during the second half of the Combined Release and Radiation Effects Satellite (CRRES) mission in the year 1991. In this study, we show the responses of relativistic radiation belt electrons to the magnetic storms by comparing the time-dependent 3-D Versatile Electron Radiation Belt (VERB) simulations with the CRRES MEA 1 MeV electron observations in order to investigate the relative roles of the competing effects of previously proposed scattering mechanisms at different storm phases, as well as to examine the extent to which the simulations can reproduce observations. The major scattering processes in our model are radial transport due to Ultra Low Frequency (ULF) electromagnetic fluctuations, pitch-angle and energy diffusion including mixed diffusion by whistler mode chorus waves outside the plasmasphere, and pitch-angle scattering by plasmaspheric hiss inside the plasmasphere. We provide a detailed description of simulations for each of the GEM storm events.

The synthesis of Ni-catalyzed multi-walled carbon nanotubes and nanofibers on a catalytic metal substrate, using an ethylene fueled inverse diffusion flame as a heat source, was investigated. When the gas temperature was varied from 1,400K to 900K, approximately, carbon nanotubes with diameters of 20∼60nm were formed on the substrate. In the regions where the gas temperature was higher than 1,400K or lower than 900K, iron nanorods or carbon nanofibers were synthesized, respectively. Based on the quantitative analyses of large amount of SEM and TEM images, the nanotubes formed closer to the flame had a tendency of having larger diameters. HR-TEM images and Raman spectra revealed that carbon nanotubes synthesized had multi-walled structures with some defective graphite layers at the wall. Based on the graphite mode of the Raman spectra, it was believed that the optimal synthesis could be obtained as the substrate was positioned at between 5.5mm and 5.0mm, from the flame axis.

The thermal stability of duplex high Mn-steel structure have been investigated using 15%Mn~1.0~2.4%C steels which are composed of ${\gamma}$-and ${\theta}$-phases in the range of temperature from 900 to $1100^{\circ}C$, and time from 50 to 300h. The results are as follows ; 1) The grain growth in single-phase region proceeds by grain boundary migration and the relation between mean radius $\bar{r}$ and annealing time t is described as follows ; $\bar{r}^2-{\bar{r}_0}^2=k_0{\cdot}t$ 2) The grain growth of duplex, (${\gamma}+{\theta}$), strucrure is slower than that single phase because the chemical composition of ${\gamma}$-and ${\theta}$-phases differs esch others. 3) The grain of (${\gamma}+{\theta}$) duplex structure grow slowly in a mode of Ostwald ripening. Because grain boundaries of ${\gamma}$-phase migrate under a restriction of pinning by ${\theta}$-phases. 4) In the duplex structures. the dispersed structures change to the dual-structures, as the volume fraction of the dispersed second-phase increase. Consequently, the growth-law, which is controlled by boundary-diffusion change to that of the volume diffusion-mechanism.
