Uranium deposits from an electrorefining process contain about 30% salt. In order to recover pure uranium and transform it into an ingot, the salts have to be removed from the uranium deposits. Major process variables for the salt distillation process of the uranium deposits are hold temperature and vacuum pressure. Effects of the variables on the salt removal efficiency were studied in the previous study[1]. By applying the Hertz-Langmuir relation to the salt evaporation of the uranium deposits, the evaporation coefficients were obtained at the various conditions. The operational conditions for achieving above 99% salt removal were deduced. The salt distilled uranium deposits tend to form the eutectic melt with iron, nickel, chromium for structural material of salt evaporator. In this study, we investigated the hold temperature limitation in order to prevent the formation of the eutetic melt between urnaium and other metals. The reactions between the uranium metal and stainless steel were tested at various conditions. And for enhancing the evaporation rate of the salt and the efficient recovery of the distilled salt, the thermal analysis of the salt distiller was conducted by using commercial CFX software. From the thermal analysis, the effect of Ar gas flow on the evaporation of the salt was studied.

The objective of this study is to investigate the removal efficiency of volitile organic compounds in soil, and the mechanism of desorption by bench scale microwave heating, Silt soil used for experiment and was impregnated with toluene, tetrachloroethylene, o-xylene and p-dichlorobenzene and the microwave treatment was conducted in a modified domestic microwave oven : 2450MHz, 700W. According to the results of the research the removal efficiency was improved with increasing water contents and the soil temperature appeared to plateau period extending to 2-3minutes corresponds to the temperature a which steam distillation was expected. The value of removal rate constant (k) were calculated on dry and moisty silt soil, respectively, which showed linear with increasing microwave heating time. Therefore, addition of a certain amount of water to the contaminated soil can efficiently enhance the ability of the soil to absorb microwave energy and promote the evaporation of the volitile contaminants.

To study the most optimum condition of Dongchimi, the various Dongchimi distinct from the amount of salt, the temperature of fermentation and the ratio of radish to water were examed by sensory evaluation. Also, the content of volatile organic acids and nonvolatile organic acids were investigated by GC, the content of sulfur compounds by GC/MS. Volatile organic acids were identified with those butyl esters and nonvolatile organic acids were done with those TMS derivatives. Sulfur compounds and those decomposed products were extracted by steam distillation In results, the most optimum conditions ware salt 2.4% fermented temperature $4^{\circ}C$, ratio 1:1.5. Volatile organic acids detected were formic, acetic acid, and the amounts were effected by saltness. Nonvolatile organic acids detected were lactio, malio, fumario, tartario acid. Lactic acid was thought to effect overall eating quality. Sulfur compounds were almost the isothiocyanate groups in raw radish, which little in fermented Dongchimi.

In order to develop the vacuum distillation process of magnesium alloy scrap, a fundamental study on the evaporation behavior of magnesium alloy (AM50) scrap melt was carried out. Melt temperature, pressure, reaction time, and initial specific surface area of melt were considered as experimental variables. The evaporation rate of magnesium increased with the increase of melt temperature and initial specific surface area of melt, and with the decrease of the pressure. The activation energy of magnesium evaporation reaction calculated by an Arrhenius plot decreased with the decrease of the pressure and with the increase of the initial specific surface area of melt. An empirical equation was derived for the evaporation rate of magnesium from AM50 alloy melt.

The purpose of this paper is to study the possibility of practical use of gasoline-methanol mixed fuel as an alternative fuel of gasoline engines in the light of engine performances and harmful exhaust emissions as well as mixings and separations of the mixed fuels. When the methanol of 99.8% purity is mixed with super or regular gasoline available on the market today, the experimental results obtained without modifying carburetor in this study are as follows; 1.The separation ratio depends upon the gasoline-methanol mixing ratio only, regardless of fuel temperature and fuel additives for preventing separation of phase. 2.The critical absorption ratio is affected by the gasoline-methanol mixing ratio, its temperature and the quantity of fuel additives. 3.Concerning the distillation temperature, the initial point of all sorts of fuels is almost same,but 10% point and 35-60% point of mixed fuels are lower than those of gasoline only. 4.In case of throttle valve opening set, engine output using the mixed fuels is decreased compared to gasoline, but thermal efficiency is increased as a consequence of decreasing specific energy consumption. 5.In case of fixed load test, thermal efficiency is increased at low engine speed even under low part-load as well as under comparatively high part-load including full load. 6.CO and NOx emissions are reduced remarkably with the mixed fuels.

Desalination requires large energy. This experiment deals to desalinate brackish water through solar panels. The discharge from desalination plants is almost entirely water, and .01 percent is salt. Desalination is a process that extracts minerals from saline water. Solar-powered desalination technologies can be used to treat non-traditional water sources to increase water supplies in rural, arid areas. Water scarceness is a rising dilemma for large regions of the world. Access to safe, fresh and pure clean drinking water is one of the most important and prime troubles in different parts of the world. Among many of water cleansing technologies solar desalination/distillation/purification is one of the most sustainable and striking method engaged to congregate the supply of clean and pure drinkable water in remote areas at a very sound cost. Six types of dripper having discharge 3 - 8 lh-1 were installed one by one and measured discharge and volume of clean water indicated that at 6 lh-1 untreated water discharge have maximum evaporation and volume of clean water was 19.2 lh-1 at same temperature and radiations. Now strategy was developed that when increased the temperature the intake discharge of untreated water must be increased and salt drained water two times more than treated water.

The current study reviews the manufacturing characteristics, upon aging, using different distillation methods with Saccharomyces cerevisiae 88-4 isolated from traditional Nuruk. The alcohol content slightly decreased at 180 days of aging period, under the conditions: -60 cmHg, distilling temperature $50^{\circ}C$, head cut 7%, and body cut 30%. The alcohol content decreased by 2.2% at: -50 cmHg, distilling temperature $60^{\circ}C$, head cut 7%, and body cut 30%. From 2-thiobarbituric acid (TBA) analysis, the TBA values were not found to change significantly in most of the alcohols, but increased at conditions of: -60 cmHg, distilling temperature $60^{\circ}C$, head cut 7%, and body cut 50% and -50 cmHg, distilling temperature $50^{\circ}C$, head cut 7%, and body cut 50%, when initial alcohol levels were low. According to n-propanol, iso-butanol, and isoamyl alcohol analysis, with increasing aging period, the n-propanol and isoamyl alcohol content did not change, although that of iso-butanol decreased. The flavor components showed different results based on the aging period. Results of sensory evaluation showed no significant difference based on aging. The sensory evaluation test was continued for 180 days at a condition of: -60 cmHg, distilling temperature $60^{\circ}C$, and body cut 50%, which had the best overall evaluation ($5.8{\pm}0.9$).

The aim of this study is to investigate the effects of aromatics and T90 temperature for high cetane number (CN) of diesel fuels on combustion and exhaust emissions in low-temperature diesel combustion in a 1.9 L common rail direct injection diesel engine at 1500 rpm and 2.6 bar BMEP. Four sets of fuels with CN 55, aromatic content of 20% or 45% (vol. %), and T90 temperature of $270^{\circ}C$ or $340^{\circ}C$ were tested. Given engine operating conditions, all the fuels showed the same tendency of decrease of PM with an increase of an ignition delay time. At the same ignition delay time, the fuels with high T90 produced higher PM. At the same MFB50% location the amount of NOx was similar for all the fuels. Furthermore, at the same ignition delay time the amounts of THC and CO were similar as well for all the fuels. The amount of THC and CO increased with an extension of the ignition delay time mainly because of the increase of fuel-air over-mixing.

This study is to investigate the effects of aromatics and T90 for low cetane number (CN) fuels on combustion and exhaust emissions in low-temperature diesel combustion. We use a 1.9-L common rail direct injection diesel engine at 1500 rpm and 2.6 bar BMEP. Low temperature diesel combustion was achieved via a high external EGR rate and strategic injection control. The tested fuels four sets: the aromatic content was 20% (A20) or 45% (A45) and the T90 temperature was $270^{\circ}C$ (T270) or $340^{\circ}C$ (T340) with CN 30. Given the engine operating conditions, the T90 was the stronger factor on the ignition delay time, resulting in a longer ignition delay time for higher T90 fuels. All the fuels produced nearly zero PM because of the extension of the ignition delay time induced by the low cetane number. The aromatic content was the main factor that affected the NOx and the NOx increased with the aromatic content.
