  • The purpose of this study is to find troubles in producing and using the reclaimed soaps to get the solutions of their troubles. Five kinds of reclaimed soaps were taken from religious or civic organizations and nine kinds of soaps were made by adding sodium hydroxide of different concentrations to the used vegetable oil in our laboratory. Washing efficiency, pH test, BOD, and skin irritability of the reclaimed of manufactured soaps were examined. The washing efficiency of the manufactured soaps were ±80%. The percent of free-alkali tended to increase as the amount of NaOH increased. The skinirritability was proportional to the amount of NaOH added. To make the reclaimed soap, the best percent of NaHO to used oil is 17% or 18% and this ratio(17%∼18%) should be kept. Manufactured soaps by this ratio have good apperance condition and washing efficiency. And also they have low skin irritability and free-alkali. This study has the limitations that the skin irritability test can have individual and the collected soaps couldn't represent all kinds of recaimed soap.

  • Piezo devices have large power density and simple structure. They can generate larger force than the conventional actuators. It has also wide bandwidth with fast response in a compact size. Thus the piezo devices are expected to be used widely in the future for small actuators with fast response time and large actuating force. However, the piezo actuators need high voltage with high driving current due to their large capacitive property. In this paper, we propose a simple method to drive piezo devices using voltage inversion circuit with coil inductance. Experiments with real circuit demonstrates that the proposed scheme can improve the energy efficiency very much.

  • The dynamic characteristics of a load-sensing hydraulic servo system are complex and highly unstable. Another property of the system is that the setting value of pump compensator is closely related to energy efficiency as well as control performance of the system. This necessitates the development of an effective control algorithm which guarantees good control performance, stability and energy efficiency. This paper considers a suboptimal PID control for the velocity control problem of the load-sensing hydraulic servo system. The results of simulations studies and experiments show that the proposed suboptimal controller can produce much better control performance than nonoptimal controllers and give effective energy efficiency.

  • The cleaning efficiency of papermaking felt which is contaminated with fiber fines and various micro-materials was investigated and compared between the application of enzyme and commercial detergent. It was found that the cleaning efficiency by the treatment of acidic-based detergent was more efficient than that of alkaline-based one in the conventional commercial detergent. it was also observed that the treatment design of first acidic-based detergent treatment to second alkaline-based detergent procedure was better in the cleaning efficiency, compared to alkaline based-to-acidic based one. The cleaning property of felt with enzyme was resulted in good cleaning efficiency, without any addition of surfactant. Especially, the enzyme treatment under alkaline condition (pH 10) showed a better cleaning result than that under acidic condition(pH 5). The addition of nonionic surfactant to the enzyme increased the cleaning efficiency of felt and decreased the cationic demand of wastewater. These results showed more favour than the application of conventional commercial detergent.

  • In this study, the characteristics of electrostatic bag filter to overcome the main problems such as the high pressure drop and low collection efficiency for submicron particles are investigated with the experimental parameters. Especially, the experiment is carried out focusing on collection efficiency and pressure drop change mechanism as a function of discharge electrode shapes and filter properties, including the applied voltages, filtration velocities and particle concentrations, etc . Results show that the collection efficiency is improved over 30% for the fine particle below 1 pm and pressure drop reduction ratio (PDRR) increases in the following order 4 mm screwy > 4 mm square > 4mm round discharge electrodes . For the filter properties, Nomex is more effective than PE under the influence of electrostatic force. Applying 30 kV for a screwy discharge electrode, higher overall collection efficiency is maintained in spite of the increment of filtration velocity over four times (8 m/min) in comparison with that of 2 m/min and PDRR are highly shown over 80o1o with various filtration velocities, 5, 8, 11 m/min.

  • Since algae had been issued an environmental problem, water blooms, deepened due to increase of retention water basin in Korea as well as a biomass resource for producing biofuel, this study conducted a series of experiments for Spirulina platensis using the flotation process with micro-bubble. To elevate utilization of collected-algae, this study focused on omitting or minimizing coagulant's doses as changing a cultivation period and condition affected on physical property change of algae. Two coagulants, PAC and Chitosan, were used to test the collecting rate of algae and the result found no difference between two rates. For flotation experiments without adding the coagulant, dried algae weight (passing 14 days after cultivation for 20 days) detected high separation efficiency 98.2 % and it (passing 7 days after long-term cultivation for 28 days) presented good separation efficiency 91.9 %. Chlorophyll's separation efficiency showed a similar tendency with the case of the dried algae weight. In endogeny conditions, a light source and a carbon source were not considerably affected on the flotation separation efficiency. Thus, this study confirms that algae biomass may be collected without the coagulant during the endogeny condition period after enough cultivation time, 3 weeks.

  • CIGS is one of thin film solar cell and has been studied so much, because of the possibility of low price and high efficiency. Until now, co-evaporation and sputtering were typical method to prepare CIGS absorption layer, and a few company commercialized solar cell by these method. However, non-vacuum process which has been studied for long time has not been progressed, though the merit of low price. Especially, aerosol deposition method has not been reported, because it is difficult to prepare a large quantity of various CIGS powder. In this study, CIGS powder was synthesized by mechanochemical method and CIGS absorption layer was deposited by aerosol deposition method. The thickness of the CIGS layer was controlled by the number of deposition and the surface roughness of it was affected by the amount of flow gas. And, also, I-V curve of it appeared metallic property in the case of 'as deposition'. After heat treatment in Se-rich atmosphere, the electrical property of it changed to a semiconductor. CdS and transparent conduction layer were formed by a typical method on it for solar cell. The efficiency of cell was appeared 0.19%. Though the efficiency was low because of the disharmony in the after-process, it was conformed that CIGS solar cell could be prepared by aerosol deposition.

  • Ultraviolet (UV) light emitting diodes (LEDs) were grown on a patterned n-type GaN substrate (PNS) with 200 nm silicon-di-oxide (SiO2) nano pattern diameter to improve the light output efficiency of the diodes. Wet etched self assembled indium tin oxide (ITO) nano clusters serve as a dry etching mask for converting the SiO2 layer grown on the n-GaN template into SiO2 nano patterns by inductively coupled plasma etching. PNS is obtained by n-GaN regrowth on the SiO2 nano patterns and UV-LEDs were fabricated using PNS as a template. Two UV-LEDs, a reference LED without PNS and a 200 nm PNS UV-LEDs were fabricated. Scanning Electron microscopy (SEM), Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM), X-Ray Diffraction (XRD), Photoluminescence (PL) and Light output intensity- Input current- Voltage (L-I-V) characteristics were used to evaluate the ITO-$SiO_2$ nanopattern surface morphology, threading dislocation propagation, PNS crystalline property, PNS optical property and UVLED device performance respectively. The light out put intensity was enhanced by 1.6times@100mA for the LED grown on PNS compared to the reference LED with out PNS.
