This study was carried out to find a method to remove cadmium from soil and/or attenuate in Cd saturated Soil The chemical form of Cd was influenced by the physico-chemical properties of soil and the adsorption of Cd by soil conformed to the Langmuir isotherm. The order of Cd contents in chemical fractions extracted by several reagents was EDTA > NaOH > $HNO_3$. Flooding, liming and the addition of chelating agents and clay minerals to the contaminated soil seems to desirable in alleviating the harmful effects of Cd on plant growth by reducing Cd content in the $KNO_3$ fraction.

Counter-diffusion of coronene desorbed from alumina with addition of tetra-phenylporphine was studied by spectrophotometry. The counter-diffusion processes of adsorbing and desorbing materials in liquid phase were simulated by counter-diffusion model based on Fritz's binary component isotherm under an assumption of equimass diffusion. The counter-diffusivities of desorbed coronene with addition of tetra-phenylporphine were as ${\sim}10^{-15}m^2/sec$ and that of adsorbed tetra-phenylporphine as ${\sim}10^{-11}m^2/sec$. The counter-diffusivity of coronene determined from desorption process was smaller by ${\sim}10^5$ times than the diffusivity determined from adsorption process of a single species. The reduction of the determined counter-diffusivity of coronene in desorption process was explained by the cross of diffusion fluxes and build-up of high gradient of coronene in pore.

ITRS (international technology roadmap for semiconductors)에 따르면 MOS(metal-oxide-semiconductor)의 CD (critical dimension)가 45 nm node이하로 줄어들면서 poly-Si/$SiO_2$를 대체할 수 있는 poly-Si/metal gate/high-k dielectric이 대두된다고 보고하고 있다. 일반적으로 high-k dielectric를 식각시 anisotropic 한 식각 형상을 형성시키기 위해서 plasma를 이용한 RIE (reactive ion etching)를 사용하고 있지만 PIDs (plasma induced damages)의 하나인 PIED (plasma induced edge damage)의 발생이 문제가 되고 있다. PIED의 원인으로 plasma의 direct interaction을 발생시켜 gate oxide의 edge에 trap을 형성시키므로 그 결과 소자 특성 저하가 보고되고 있다. 그러므로 본 연구에서는 이에 차세대 MOS의 high-k dielectric의 식각공정에 HDP (high density plasma)의 ICP (inductively coupled plasma) source를 이용한 원자층 식각 장비를 사용하여 PIED를 줄일 수 있는 새로운 식각 공정에 대한 연구를 하였다. One-monolayer 식각을 위한 1 cycle의 원자층 식각은 총 4 steps으로 구성 되어 있다. 첫 번째 step은 Langmuir isotherm에 의하여 표면에 highly reactant atoms이나 molecules을 chemically adsorption을 시킨다. 두 번째 step은 purge 시킨다. 세 번째 step은 ion source를 이용하여 발생시킨 Ar low energetic beam으로 표면에 chemically adsorbed compounds를 desorption 시킨다. 네 번째 step은 purge 시킨다. 결과적으로 self limited 한 식각이 이루어짐을 볼 수 있었다. 실제 공정을 MOS의 high-k dielectric에 적용시켜 metal gate/high-k dielectric CMOSFETs의 NCSU (North Carolina State University) CVC model로 구한 EOT (equivalent oxide thickness)는 변화가 없으면서 mos parameter인 Ion/Ioff ratio의 증가를 볼 수 있었다. 그 원인으로 XPS (X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy)로 gate oxide의 atomic percentage의 분석 결과 식각 중 발생하는 gate oxide의 edge에 trap의 감소로 기인함을 확인할 수 있었다.

An abrasive, calcium hydrogen phosphate dihydrate (DCPD), was synthesized in a Box-wilson experimental design by reactions between phosphoric acid and milk of lime, and calcium chloride and sodium phosphate solutions, and stabilized with TSPP and TMP. The optimum conditions for preparation of DCPD from phosphoric acid with milk of lime were such as; reaction temp.; $51.9^{\circ}C$, conc. of lime; 25.9%, conc. of phosphoric acd; 77.9%, drying temp.; $60.2^{\circ}C$ and final pH; 6.46. The physico-chemical and pharmaceutical properties of DCPD were showed as follows: glycerin absorption value(68 ml/100g), whiteness(99.5%), particle size(10.9 nm), pH(7.8), and set test(pass). XRD and SEM of DCPD indicated a monoclinic system crystallographically. $N_2$ adsorption isotherm curve by BET showed non porous type II form. The micromeritic parameters of DCPD showed that surface area was $3.27{\sim}4.6\;cm^{2}/g$ and pore volume, pore area and pore radius were negligible. The rheogram of the toothpaste containing DCPD showed pseudoplastic flow with yield value of 321, and thixotropic behavior forming hysteresis loop. These results meet the requirements as abrasive standard, and sythesized DCPD is expected as a good dental abrasive such as a high quality grade in practice.

PSf/D2EHPA/CNTs beads were prepared by immobilizing extractant di-(2-ethylhexyl)- phosphoric acid (D2EHPA) and adsorbent carbon nanotubes (CNTs) on polysulfone (PSf), and the adsorption characteristics of Sr(II) on the beads were studied. The morphological characteristics of the prepared PSf/D2EHPA/CNTs beads were observed by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), thermo gravimetric analysis (TGA), and Fourier transform infrared spectrometer (FTIR). The equilibrium time for the removal of Sr(II) by PSf/D2EHPA/CNTs beads was 60 min. The experimental kinetic data followed pseudo-second-order model more than pseudo-first-order kinetics model. The maximum removal capacity of Sr(II) obtained from Langmuir isotherm was 4.75 mg/g. The removal efficiencies of Sr (II) by PSf/D2EHPA/CNTs beads were improved 2.5 times by adding the adsorbent CNTs more than by using only the extractant D2EHPA.

The absorption characteristics and their physical properties of hot air, vacuum and freeze dried soybean curd powder were investigated. Absorption conditions were at 5, 15, and 25 t with $0.11\~0.93$ water activities. Equilibrium moisture content and the monolayer moisture content determined by prediction models showed highest value in the freeze dried soybean curd powder due to porous structure. Absorption energy decreased with increasing water activity was not affected by drying method. In the comparisons of the isothermal absorption models, Oswin model generally was the best fit model for isothermal adsorption of soybean curd powder.

The significance of the curvature dependency correction of surface tension is studied in calculating the pore volume distribution of porous adsorbent from nitrogen adsorption isotherm. That is, Kelvin radii are calculated with curvature dependent surface tension values calculated by Chang et al, and then with these Kelvin radii, pore volume distributions of three porous adsorbents, silica alumina (steam deactivated), silica gel (Davidson 59), and silica gel (Mallinc-krodt Standard Luminescent), are calculated. The results are compared with those obtained by the previous method in which surface tension is taken as constant and also with the others. obtained by the modelless method proposed by Brunauer et al. The maximum point of the distribution curve shift to the larger pore radius, when the curvature dependency is considered. Furthermore, the relative pressure at which capillary condensation commences is by far the lower than that accepted previously. This effect becomes significant as the pore radius approaches to the micropore range.

We performed a basic experiment for rapid, on-line, real-time measurement of HBsAg by using a surface plasmon resonance biosensor to quantify the recognition and interaction of biomolecules. We immobilized the anti-HBsAg polyclonal antibody to the dextran layer on a CM5 chip surface which was pre-activated by N-hydroxysuccinimide for amine coupling. The binding of the HBsAg to the immobilized antibody was measured by the mass increase detected by the change in the SPR signal. The binding characteristics between HBsAg and its antibody followed typical monolayer adsorption isotherm. When the entire immobilized antibody was interacted, there was no additional, non-specific binding observed, which suggested the biointeraction was very specific as expected and independent of the ligand density. No significant steric hindrance was observed at 17.6 nm/$mm^2$ immobilization density. The relationship between the HBsAg concentration in the sample solution and the antigen bound to the chip surface was linear up to ca. $40\mu\textrm{g}$/mL, which is much wider than that of the ELISA method. It appeared the antigen-antibody binding was increased as the immobilized ligand density increased, but verification is warranted. This study showed the potential of this biosensor-based method as a rapid, simple, multi-sample, on-line assay. Once properly validated, it can serve as a more powerful method for HBsAg quantification replacing the current ELISA method.

One of the Musty and earthy smell compounds in raw water is generally attributed to 2-methylisoborneol (2-MIB). It is well known that activated carbon and oxidants such as $O_3$, Cl $O_2$, are effective ways to control 2-MIB. In isotherm equilibrium experiments, 2-MIB in distilled water was much more adsorbed to the activated carbon(A/C) than raw water containing dissolved organic carbon (DOC). The Freundlich constants(k) of distilled water and raw water were 3.36 and 0.049, and 1/n values were 0.80 and 0.42, respectively. The 2-MIB residual rate were Y = $e^{-0}$.55x/~ $e^{-0}$.54x/ with Ozone( $O_3$) dose by 5 minutes contact time at the 241 and 353 ng/L initial concentrations. The 2-MIB residual rate were Y = $e^{-0}$.32x/~ $e^{-0}$.35x/ with Chlorine dioxide(Cl $O_2$) dose by 15 minutes contact time at the 89 and 249 ng/L initial concentrations. 2-MIB was decreased from 1911 ng/L to 569ng/L by post-ozonation(70%removal efficiency) and removal efficiencies of 2-MIB by the following 4 kinds Granular Activated Carbon(GAC) process such as coal base, coconut base, wood base and zeolite＋carbon base were 95.8, 89.5, 88.4, and 93.7% respectively.ely.

Immobilized cellulase on weak ion exchange resin showed a typical Langmuir adsorption isotherm. Immobilized cellulase had better stability with respect to pH and temperature than free cellulase. Kinetics of thermal inactivation on free and immobilized cellulase followed first order rate, and immobilized cellulase had a longer half-life than free cellulase. The initial rate method was used to characterize the kinetic parameters of free and immobilized enzyme. The Michaelis-Menten constant $K_m$ was higher for the immobilized enzyme than it was for the free enzyme. The effect of the recirculation rate on cellulose degradation was studied in a recycling packed-bed reactor. In a continuous packed-bed reactor, the increasing flow rate of cellulose decreased the conversion efficiency of cellulose at different input lactose concentrations. Continuous operation for five days was conducted to investigate the stability of long term operation. The retained activity of the immobilized enzymes was 48% after seven days of operation.
