The suitability of pivalic acid was confirmed as a secondary temperature standard material. Triple-point cells of pivalic acid were obtained by using combined process of vacuum distillation with zone refining. A detailed description of the purification process was given. The melting curves were used as criteria for determination of purities of pivalic acid. Triple points of these cells with purity of 99.9997% were measured to be $35.956\pm 0.003^{\circ}C$ by using the melting plateau curves. Thus the triple point cells of pivalic acid appear to be able to use for the calibration of thermistor thermometers with moderate precision.

Recently, an understanding of new sources of liquid hydrocarbons such as bio-ethanol is economically very important. Successful design of distillation columns in a separation process depend on the availability of accurate vapor-liquid equilibrium data. For the binary system of Ethanol/3-methyl-l-butanol mixture, isothermal Vapor-liquid equilibrium data were measured at temperature of 50, 55, 60, 65, 70, 75 and $80^{\circ}C$. An empirical relation to predict Vapor-liquid equilibrium data was obtained from the above measured data. The predicted values are compared with the measured ones to be in a good agreement within accuracy of ${\pm}0.0005$, ${\pm}0.0022$.

Hydrogen isotopes (i.e. deuterium and tritium) are supplied to the tokamak in the International Thermonuclear Experimental Reactor (ITER) fuel cycle. One important part of the ITER fuel cycle is the recycling of unused fuel back to the tokamak, as almost 99 % of fuel is unburned during fusion reaction. For this, cryogenic distillation has been used in the isotope separation system (ISS) of ITER, but this technique tends to be energy-intensive and to have low selectivity (typically below 1.5 at 24 K). Recently, efficient isotope separation by porous materials has been reported in the so-called quantum sieving process. Hence, in this study, hydrogen isotope adsorption behavior is studied using chemically stable ZIF-11. At low temperature (40 K ~ 70 K), the adsorption increases and the sorption hysteresis becomes stronger as the temperature increases to 70K. Molar ratio of deuterium to hydrogen based on the isotherms shows the highest (max. 14) ratio at 50 K, confirming the possibility of use as a potential isotope separation material.

Breakthrough analysis has widely been explored for the dynamic separation of gaseous mixtures in porous materials. In general, breakthrough experiments measure the components of a flowing gas when a gaseous mixture is injected into a column filled with an adsorbent material. In this paper, we report on the design and fabrication of a breakthrough curve measurement device to study the dynamic adsorptive separation of hydrogen isotopologues in porous materials. Using the designed system, an experiment was conducted involving a 1:1 mixture of hydrogen and deuterium passed through a column filled with zeolite 13X (1 g). At room temperature, both hydrogen and deuterium were adsorbed in negligible amounts; however, at a temperature of 77 K, deuterium was preferentially adsorbed over hydrogen. The selectivity was different from that in the existing literature due to the different sample shapes, measurement methods, and column structures, but was at a similar level to that of cryogenic distillation (1.5).

To investigate the characteristics of pyrolysis for LDPE, LLDPE and HDPE, the low temperature pyrolysis was carried out in the range of 425 to $500^{\circ}C$ for 35 to 65 min. The liquid products formed during pyrolysis were classified into gasoline, kerosene, light oil and wax according to the distillation temperatures based on the petroleum product quality standard of Korea Petroleum Quality Inspection Institute. TGA experiments for three PE samples showed that the onset temperature of pyrolysis increased with increasing heating rate, and the onset temperature of pyrolysis at a fixed heating rate was in the order of LDPE$475^{\circ}C$. Yields of gasoline and kerosene were highest at $450^{\circ}C$, 65 min and decreased slightly at above $475^{\circ}C$.

The essential oil obtained by steam distillation from medicinal plants of Cinnamomum cassia and Prunellae Herba. Analysis of essential oils were performed on GC/MS selective detector. Separations were performed fused silica capillary column. The carrier gas was ultra pure helium with a flow of 1 $m{\ell}/min$ and the splitless injector temperature was set as $280^{\circ}C$. The column temperature program was as follows: initial temperature of $70^{\circ}C$ for 4 min, and increased by $2^{\circ}C/min$ 70 to $100^{\circ}C$ (held 2 min), After that the temperature was varied from 100 to $200^{\circ}C$ at $5^{\circ}C/min$ (held 20 min), increase to $280^{\circ}C$ (held 5 min) at $10^{\circ}C/min$, in a total run time of 73 min. Ten volatile flavor components were identified from C. cassia and ten volatile flavor components were identified from Prunellae Herba. Strong inhibition of growth of Vibrio parahaemolyticus was obtained with all doses of C. cassia tested. Moreover, antimicrobial activity of C. cassia occurred in a dose dependant manner.

The purification of indole from 54.3wt% indole fraction (temperature range of distillate: $250{\sim}255^{\circ}C$) recovered by extraction-distillation combination of coal tar fraction (temperature range of distillate: $240{\sim}265^{\circ}C$) was examined by solute crystallization. The feed consists of eight components such as quinoline, iso-quinoline, indole, quinaldine, 1-methylnaphthalene, 2-methylnaphthalene, biphenyl and phenyl ether. Hexane and an aqueous solution of methanol (50 : 50 vol%) were used as the crystallization solvent and the coolant, respectively. A batch stirred tank of glass material was used as a crystallization apparatus. By increasing the operation temperature and the volume ratio of solvent to feed at initial, the purity of indole increas ed, but yields of indole showed a decreasing tendency. Solute crystallization method using hexane as a solvent was excellent because the purity of 99.3 wt% indole was recovered at the yield of 50% without washing operation.

This study was conducted to assess the effect of mixed fuel composition and mass fraction on spray inner structure in evaporating transient spray under the various ambient conditions. Spray structure and spatial distribution of liquid phase concentration are investigated using a thin laser sheet illumination technique on the multi-component mixed fuels. A pulsed Ar+ laser was used as a light source. The experiments were conducted in a constant volume vessel with optical access. Fuel was injected into the vessel with electronically controlled common rail injector. Used fuel contain $i-octane(C_8H_{18}),\;n-dodecane(C_{12}H_{26})$ and $n-hexadecane(C_{16}H_{34})$ that are selected as low-, middle- and high-boiling point fuel, respectively. Experimental conditions are 25Mpa, 42MPa, 72MPa and 112MPa in injection pressure, $5kg/m^3,\;15kg/m^3\;and\;20kg/m^3$ in ambient gas density, 400K, 500K, 600K and 700K in ambient gas temperature, 300K and 368K in fuel temperature, and different fuel mass fraction. Experimental results indicate that the more high-boiling point component, the longer the liquid phase it were closely related to fuel physical properties, but injection pressure had no effect on. And there was a high correlation between the liquid phase length and boiling temperature at 75% distillation point.

As a fundamental study in the development of a distillation process for ferromanganese alloy melts, the evaporation behavior of an electrolytic manganese melt under reduced pressure was investigated. The melt temperature, vacuum degree, surface area of the melt, and reaction time were considered as experimental variables. The amount of vaporized manganese increases linearly as the reaction time increases, and the evaporation of manganese was promoted by increasing the temperature and surface area of the melt. In the pressure range below the equilibrium vapor pressure of manganese, the amount of vaporized manganese per unit surface area of the melt increased sharply with a decrease of the pressure in the reaction chamber. An empirical equation for the evaporation rate of manganese was derived by regression analysis. The evaporation coefficient of manganese was determined to be approximately $3.84{\times}10^{-3}(g{\cdot}K^{1/2})/(Pa{\cdot}cm^2{\cdot}min)$ under the investigated conditions.
