In the steel industry, a steel melting electric arc furnace is used to produce both carbon and alloy steels. Steel scrap which is charged into the furnace is heated by means of electric arc between graphite electrodes and the scrap. In this melting process, current is supplied to the furnace through HCC(high current cable) which connect the furnace and transformer. Four HCCs are assigned to each phase in our system to divide the current. Since a sudden cable breaking result in the shutdown of melting process, an aging detection of HCC is very important for both an improvement of productivity and cost reduction. In this paper, the aging of the HCC is estimated by using the current ratio between four HCCs.

Direct laser vaporization of transition-metal(Co, Ni)/graphite composite pellet produced single wall carbon naotubes(SWNT) in the condensing vapor in a heated flow cylinder-type tube furnace, Transition metal/graphite composite pellet target was made by mixing graphite, Co, and Ni in 98:1:1 atomic weight ratios, pressing the mixed powder, and curing it. The target was placed in a tube furnace maintained at 1200$^{\circ}C$ and Ar inert collision gas continuously flowed into the tube. The 2nd harmonic, 532nm wavelength light from Nd-YAG laser was used to vaporize the tube. The carbon nanotubes produced by the laser vaporization were accumulated on quartz tube wall. The raw carbon nanotube materials were purified with surfactants(Triton X-100) in a ultrasonicator. These carbon nanotubes were analyzed using SEM, XRD, and Raman spectroscopic method. The carbon nanotube growth on the Ni-patterned Si substrate was investigated by the CVD process. Transition-metal, Ni and CH4 gas were used as a catalyst and a reactant gas, respectively. The structure and the phonon frequencies of the carbon nanotubes formed on the patterned Si substrate were measured by SEM and Raman spectrometer.

Ten trace elements (Mg, Ca, V, Cr, Mn, Fe, Cu, Zn, Mo, and Cd) were determined in seven traditionally used wild medicinal plants of the Nagas in the North-East India viz Cynoglossum furcatum Wallich, Elsholtzia blanda Bentham, Lycopodium cernuum Linnaeus, Potentilla fulgens Wallich ex Hooker, Swertia macrosperma C.B. Clarke, Thalictrum foliolosum DC and Valeriana jatamansi Jones. Plant samples were dried, weighed, digested and analyzed for their mineral distribution level ranging from trace to major elements by graphite furnace-atomic absorption spectroscopy. All the medicinal herbs studied were found to contain the ten elements analyzed. The elemental concentration is given in mg/kg. Mg and Ca are present in high concentrations in both the roots and leaves of the plant samples. Among trace transition metals Fe had the highest concentration, followed by Mn, Cr, Cu, V, Zn, and Mo. Analysis showed that the toxic Cd element was at a lower concentration and is within the permissible limit of FAO/WHO, California standards and United States Pharmacopeia Limit for Nutritional Supplements.

A semi-automatic method for the determination of dissolved bismuth at parts per trillion levels is described. The method involves bismuthine generation, in situ collection of bismuthine in a graphite furnace, and atomic absorption detection. In order to facilitate semi-automation of bismuthine generation and separation from aqueous solution, Gore-tex microporous PTEE membrane is used. The absolute detection limit, taken as three times the standard deviation of the instrument noise is 2 pg. The precisions are 3.1% for 100 pg and 1.9% for 1 ng of bismuth, respectively. As many as 90 measurements can be made in an hour.

This study investigated the thermal behavior of the nuclear graphite waste generated from the decommissioning of the Korean nuclear research reactor, The first part study investigated the decomposition rate of the nuclear graphite waste up to $1000^{\circ}C$ under various oxygen partial pressures using a thermo-gravimetric analyzer (TGA). Tested graphite waste sample not easily destroyed in the oxygen-deficient condition. However, the gas-solid oxidation reaction was found to be very effective in the presence of oxygen. No significant amount of the product of incomplete combustion was formed even in the limited oxygen concentration of 4% $O_2$. The influence of temperature and oxygen partial pressure was evaluated by the theoretical model analysis of the thermo-gravimetric data. The activation energy and the reaction order of graphite oxidation were evaluated as 128 kJ/mole and 1.1, respectively. The second part of this study investigated the behavior of radioactive elements under graphite oxidation atmosphere using thermodynamic equilibrium model. $^{22}Na$, $^{134}Cs$ and $^{137}Cs$ were found be the semi-volatile elements. Since volatile uranium species can be formulated at high temperatures above $1050^{\circ}C$, the temperature of incinerator furnace should be minimized. Other corrosion/activation products, fission products and uranium were found to be the non-volatile species.

본 연구는 식물체 중 게르마늄을 분석할 때 기존의 방법보다 분석효율이 높고 간편하여 분해시간이 짧게 걸리는 방법을 찾고자 실험을 수행하였다. 시료 분해시 분해액은 $HNO_3+HClO_4+H_2SO_4$의 혼합산을 10 : 4 : 1(v/v)의 비율로 혼합 사용하였을 때 분해 소요 일수는 4~5일이었고, 회수율은 98% 이상이었다. 분해 후 최종 일정 부피로 맞추어 주기 위한 용액은 0.1M acetic acid-sodium acetate가 좋았으며, 아르곤 연료를 사용한 탄소봉원자화기부착 원자흡광분광광도계의 검출 한계는 0.02ppm이었다. 이와 같은 결과들은 식물체 중 게르마늄 분석에 있어서 전술한 실험 목적에 부합되는 결과였다.

본 연구에서는 흑연로 원자흡수분광법을 이용하여 혈액을 1% Triton X-100을 5배 희석시킨 다음 납 함량을 직접 측정하였다. 혈액내 방해 성분을 제거하기 위하여 매트릭스 변형제를 사용하여 최적의 분석 조건을 조사하였다. 매트릭스 변형제로서 1% $(NH_4)_2HPO_4$와 0.1% $PdCl_2$를 같이 사용하고 700도에서 회화시켰을 때에, 일본 비교 분석 프로그램에 의해 제공된 혈중 납 함량에 대한 정도관리용 표준시료(우혈)의 공인값과 비교적 잘 일치하였다. 이 실험에서 얻은 표준편차는 $31{\mu}gPb/l$에서 $624{\mu}gPb/l$ 범위에서는 1% $(NH_4)_2HPO_4$ 및 1% $(NH_4)_2HPO_4$와 0.1% $PdCl_2$를 매트릭스 변형제로서 사용했을 경우 각각 2.2~6.3%, 3.1~9.1%였다.

GFAAS(graphite furnace atomic absorption spectrophotometer)를 이용하여 혈액 중 납을 분석할 때, 납은 비교적 휘발성 원소인 관계로 바탕선이 높아지므로 희화 온도를 일정 온도 이상으로 높일 수 없었다. 그래서 종래에는 매트릭스 변형제를 사용하여 희화 온도를 $700^{\circ}C$까지 올려서 희화시켜야 바탕선이 안정되었다. 본 연구에서는 광온도 및 전류 제어 장치가 부착된 기기(Shimadzu, AA-6501S)를 사용하여 온도조절을 단시간에 정확히 함으로써 매트릭스 변형제를 사용하지 않고 Triton X-100으로만 희석하여 분석해도 희화 온도 $550^{\circ}C$ 부근에서 바탕선이 안정됨을 알았다. 또한 자동 바탕 보정 장치인 $D_2$ arc형과 SR(self reversal)법을 비교해 본 결과, 같은 농도에서의 흡광도는 $D_2$ arc형이 높았으나 BGC(background correction)값은 SR법이 높음을 알았다.
