본 연구에서는 acrylonitrile-butadiene rubber(NBR)/타이어고무분말(Ground Tire Rubber, GTR) 블렌드계의 발포체를 제조하고, 이들의 난연성을 증진시키고자 하였다. 그 결과 난연제 중 유기인 화합물 및 무기금속 수산화물의 함량 증가에 따라 난연성이 증진됨을 확인할 수 있었다. 유기인 화합물의 경우 함량 증가에 따라 한계산소지수(LOI)가 증가하고, 열 방출 속도(HRR) 및 유효 연소열(EHC)이 감소하는 반면에 CO 방출률(량) 및 역기밀도가 증가함을 확인 할 수 있었다. 무기금속 수산화물은 함량 증가에 따라 난연효과 뿐만 아니라 열기발생 억제효과를 동시에 가짐으로써 LOI, HRR, EHC가 유기인 화합물 첨가에서와 같은 경향성을 보여주었지만 CO 방출률(량) 및 연기밀도에 있어서는 유기인 화합물 첨가에서와 상이하게 감소하였다. 그리고 난연성을 판단함에 있어 중요한 변수들인 열 방출속도, 유효 연소열, 무게감소, 한계산소지수간의 상관관계를 확인하였는데, A-HRR과 LOI가 증가함에 따라 질량손실이 각각 증가 혹은 감소하는 뚜렷한 경향성을 확인하였다. 이로써 NBR/GTR의 조성비기 $100{\sim}80/0{\sim}20 wt.%$이고 고무/난연제의 조성비가 $1/1.55{\sim}3.60 wt.%$일 때, 원활한 핵의 생성 및 cell의 성장으로 인해 균일한 closed cell 및 semi-closed cell을 보여주었다. 또한 $225{\sim}250 %$의 발포율을 보이며, 낯은 HRR과 높은 LOI($28.0{\sim}39.3$)를 갖는 난연성 및 발포성이 우수한 발포체를 얻을 수 있었다.

Feasibility test for a biofilter was performed to treat VOCs. The applied loading rate to the biofilter was calculated between 60 to $3,700\;kg\;COD/m^3$. Trimethyl-pentene and trimethyl-hexene were the two most dominant compounds and they occupy about 85 percent. During the acclimation period, it is desirable for a biofilter to receive relatively lower VOCs concentration and flow rate, until it can adjust to new substrate and operational environment. Temperature at various points inside the biofilter reactor was observed with more than 23 temperature sensors. With steam heating, temperatures of the top sections of the media were greater than those of bottom sections. Without steam heating, intermediate stages generally had higher temperature measurement than those of bottom and top stages. Because the pH values for different biofilter materials vary significantly, measurement of the pH for the mixture of different combinations of biofilter materials is necessary. Based on the types and brands of media, the measured pH ranged from 5.38 to 9.10. The range of measured pH of different mixtures with perlite, compost, saw dust, peat moss, limestone, vermiculite was 7.05 to 8.62.

Dissolution reactions of chemical grade zinc sulfide and natural sphalerite were studied in ferric chloride solution as an oxidant. To enhance the leaching reaction, ultrasonic technique was employed in this investigation. For the reaction with pure zinc sulfide, chemical reaction was the rate limiting step in the range of low conversion irrespective of applying ultrasonic wave. And the diffusion through liquid film instead of diffusion through product layer of free sulfur was the rate determining step because ultrasonic vibration removes the product from reaction zone. In the case of sphalerite with the ultrasonic vibrator, it was found that inert mineral layer diffusion was the rate determining step, in which the elemental sulfurs formed were removed by the ultrasonic action. Experimental results showed that the ultrasonic technique proved to be the methods which can significants improve the leaching performance.

Experiments have been performed to investigate effects of pulsating cathode flow on a 10-cell proton exchange membrane fuel cell (PEMFC) stack. For all the experiments, the flow rate, temperature and relative humidity of hydrogen at the anode inlet are fixed. The effects of the pulsating frequency, amplitude and flow rate at the cathode inlet on performance of 10-cell PEMFC are examined. The polarization and power curves show that the power output and limiting current is substantially increased when the pulsating component is added to cathode flow channel. The maximum power output increases by up to 38% and enhancement of the overall performance is more pronounced at lower flow rate region.

The purpose of study is to examine the sensitivity of the rate of degradation to initial TCE concentration and iron concentration in the solution. The batch tests were executed to assess the degradation rate at varying initial conditions. First order rate constants($k_a$) were more rapid with the lower initial TCE concentration, Howere the correleation was not always linear between $k_a$ and initial TCE concentration. $k_a$ was proportionally increased as the increasing surface area. It implied that the effective reactive surface area acted as the limiting factor on the reductive dechlorination of TCE by iron.

Theoretical analysis reported in this paper is on the varities of the growth rate of Chlorella ellipsoidea due to the amount of available phosphorus for the purpose of the continual mass culture. Available phosphorus in the culture media of the Chlorella was also estimated at a limiting factor as this experiment. The equation between the concentration of Chlorella n and growth period t is $\frac{dn}{dt}=Kn$, and the functional relation between the Specific growth rate K and steady state period T is the following: $K=\frac{2.303}{T}$log\frac{n}{no}$ ($n_o$=initial concentration).

The relationship between in vitro release and in vivo bioavailability of acetaminophen from suppositories was investigated. Effect of glycyrrhizin on the drug release and rectal absorption in rats was also examined. Suppositories containing 25mg of acetaminophen were prepared with Wecobee FS (fatty base) or PEG (water-soluble base) bases. The release from the suppositories were determined with USP rotating basket dissolution apparatus and with the suppository release tester. The temperature of the dissolution medium was very critical for the dissolution of acetaminophen from Wecobee FS suppositories. The bioavailability of acetaminophen was calculated from the plasma concentration-time curve after rectal administration of the suppositories to the rats. There were no significant differences in AUC following rectal administration of Wecobee FS and PEG suppositories, but the release and absorption from the Wecobee FS suppositories were faster than those from PEG suppositories. The dissolution rate obtained by the suppository release tester was better correlated with in vivo absorption rate constant than that by the USP dissolution apparatus. It suggests that the partitioning between rectal fluid and suppository base is the rate-limiting step in the rectal absorption of acetaminophen from suppositories. Glycyrrhizin was found not to affect in vitro dissolution and rectal absorption of acetaminophen.

Helium production in the nuclear fuel matrix during irradiation plays a critical role in the design and performance of Gen-IV reactor fuel, as it represents a life-limiting factor for the operation of fuel pins. In this work, a surrogate model for the helium production rate in fast reactor MOX fuels is developed, targeting its inclusion in engineering tools such as fuel performance codes. This surrogate model is based on synthetic datasets obtained via the SCIANTIX burnup module. Such datasets are generated using Latin hypercube sampling to cover the range of input parameters (e.g., fuel initial composition, fission rate density, and irradiation time) and exploiting the low computation requirement of the burnup module itself. The surrogate model is verified against the SCIANTIX burnup module results for helium production with satisfactory performance.

A puc -deleted cell of Rhodobacter sphaeroides grows with a doubling time longer than 160 h under the light-limiting photoheterotrophic ( 3 Watts [W]/㎡) conditions due to an absence of the peripheral light-harvesting B800-850 complex. A spontaneous fast-growing mutant, R.sphaeroides SK101 was ioslate dto have∼40-h doubling at 3 Watts/㎡, while the growth of the mutant was not distinguished from its parental strain during both aerobic and light-saturating photoheterotrphic (10W/㎡) growth. The B875 complex of SK101 under the light-limiting conditions was elevated by 20 to 30% compared with that of the puc -deleted cell, reflecting parallel increase of bacteriochlorophyll and carotenoid contents of the mutant. The formation of B875 complex of SK101 under the anaerobic dark conditions with dimethylsulfoxide was the same as that of the puc-deleted cell. suggesting that the mutation of SK101 result in the altered control of B875 complex formation by light. When puc is restored in SK101 , it is not B875 complex but B800-850 complex which formation is elevated. The mutation of SK101 affected the bchF transcription most drastically to show two to tenfold increase during both aerobic and photoheterotrophic growth. The mutated phenotype of SK101 was complemented with pW2, which contains approximately 100-kb HNA of the photosynthetic gene clusters. The complementing DNA was narrowed down to a 1.1-kb DNA containing orfQ and pufKBA . The mutation of SK101 appeared to be exerted through the mutation of the orfQ gene encoding a putative bacteriochlorophyll -mobilizing protein.

이온교환막의 전압-전류곡선의 plateau length를 결정하는 변수를 다양한 NaCl 농도와 유속 하에서 연구하였다. 또한, 한계전류밀도 이상의 전류에서 전기투석공정 운전의 타당성을 검토하기 위해 다양한 전류밀도의 전원을 공급하면서 0.1 M NaCl 용액의 탈염실험을 실시하여 이온의 제거효율, 전류효율, 에너지소비량, 물 분해 현상을 측정하였다. NaCl 용액의 농도와 유속이 감소하면서 확산경계층의 두께도 함께 감소하였으며, 본 확산경계층의 두께는 plateau length와도 밀접한 관련이 있는 것으로 나타났다. 탈염실험에서 측정된 이온 제거 효율 및 전류효율은 한계전류밀도 이상에서도 한계전류밀도 이하에서의 탈염실험과 크게 차이 나지 않은 것으로 보아 한계전류밀도 이상에서도 대부분의 전류는 이온교환막 표면의 물분해에 의한 것이 아니라 막을 통한 이온의 이동에 의한 것으로 사료된다. 한계전류밀도 이상에서의 탈염운전에 대한 에너지소비량은 plateau length의 영향으로 한계전류밀도 이하에서의 탈염운전 보다 다소 높지만, 한계전류밀도 이상에서는 전류밀도의 증가에도 에너지소비량이 증가하지 않았다. 이러한 결과들은 물분해 현상이 심각하게 일어나지 않는 한 한계전류밀도 이상에서도 매우 경제적으로 전기투석 공정을 운전찬 수 있다는 것을 제시해 주는 것이다.
