A numerical analysis of reactive flow in a liftoff flame is accomplished to elucidate the characteristics of flame propagation velocity and volume integral of reaction rate with the variation of nozzle diameter and fuel injection flow rate in a liftoff flame consisted with fuel rich region, fuel lean region and diffusion flame region. The increase of fuel injection velocity enhances flame propagation velocity for the selected three nozzle diameter(d=0.25, 0.30, 0.35mm), but its effect on the flame propagation velocity is not much greater than 4.3%. The increase of fuel flow rate is directly and linearly related with the volume reaction rate and so the volume reaction rate, not the flame propagation velocity, might be considered to accommodate the variation of fuel flow rate in a liftoff flame.

The self-propagating high temperature synthesis approach was applied to synthesize amorphous boron nano-powders in argon atmospheres. For this purpose, we investigated the characteristics of a thermally induced combustion wave in the $B_2O_3+{\alpha}Mg$ system(${\alpha}=1.0-8.0$) in an argon atmospheres. In this study, the exothermic nature of the $B_2O_3-Mg$ reaction was investigated using thermodynamic calculations. Experimental study was conducted based on the calculation data and the SHS products consisting of crystalline boron and other compounds were obtained starting with a different initial molar ratio of Mg. It was found that the $B_2O_3$ and Mg reaction system produced a high combustion temperature with a rapid combustion reaction. In order to regulate the combustion reaction, NaCl, $Na_2B_4O_7$ and $H_3BO_3$ additives were investigated as diluents. In an experimental study, it was found that all diluents effectively stabilized the reaction regime. The final product of the $B_2O_3+{\alpha}Mg$ system with 0.5 mole $Na_2B_4O_7$ was identified to be amorphous boron nano-powders(< 100 nm).

To improve the $NO_X$ conversion over a SCR (selective catalytic reduction) catalyst, the DOC (diesel oxidation catalyst) is usually placed upstream of the SCR catalyst to enhance the fast SCR reaction ($4NH_3+2NO+2NO_2{\rightarrow}4N_2+6H_2O$) using equimolar amounts of NO and $NO_2$. Here, a ratio of $NO_2/NO_X$ above 50% should be avoided, because the reaction with $NO_2$ only ($4NH_3+4NO+O_2{\rightarrow}4N_2+6H_2O$) is slower than the standard SCR reaction ($4NH_3+4NO+O_2{\rightarrow}4N_2+6H_2O$). In order to accurately predict the performance characteristics of SCR catalysts, it is therefore desired to develop a more simple and reliable mathematical and kinetic models on the oxidation kinetics of nitric oxide over a DOC. In the present work, the prediction accuracy and limit of three different chemical reaction kinetics models are presented to describe the chemicophysical characteristics and conversion performance of DOCs. Steady-state experiments with DOCs mounted on a light-duty four-cylinder 2.0-L turbocharged diesel engine then are performed, using an engine-dynamometer system to calibrate the kinetic parameters such as activation energies and preexponential factors of heterogeneous reactions. The reaction kinetics for NO oxidation over Pt-based catalysts is determined in conjunction with a transient one-dimensional (1D) heterogeneous plug flow reactor (PFR) model with diesel exhaust gas temperatures in the range of 115~$525^{\circ}C$ and space velocities in the range of $(0.4{\sim}6.5){\times}10^5\;h^{-1}$.

Antioxidative characteristics of freeze dried soybean sauce powder (SSP) on the oxidation reaction of linoleic acid mixture(LA) were evaluated by the determinations of peroxide formation, synergistic property, hydrogen donation and lipoxygenase activity. SSP was found to possess a considerable potentiality of antioxidant activity on the formation of hydroperoxides in the LA oxidation reaction system at $50^{\circ}C$ for 144hrs. This antioxidative effect was increased by the concentration from 0.02% to 0.5% of SSP in the reaction system. Under the condition of presence of ferric chloride (10 ppm) in the reaction system. appreciable effect of SSP on the synergistic antioxidation were observed. On the other hand, hydrogen donation property of SSP onto ${\alpha},\;{\alpha}'-diphenyl-{\beta}-picrylhydrazyl$ was found and inhibitory ability of SSP on LA oxidation was also shown in the reaction system of lipoxygenase-catalized oxidation.

The Sulfur-iodine(SI) thermochemical cycle is one of the most promising methods for massive hydrogen production. For the purpose of continuous operation of SI cycle, phase separation characteristics into two liquid phases ($H_2SO_4$-rich phase and $HI_x$-rich phase) were directly investigated via Bunsen reaction. The experiments for Bunsen reaction were carried out in the temperature range, from 298 to 333 K, and in the $I_2/H_2O$ molar ratio of $0.109{\sim}0.297$ under a continuous flow of $SO_2$ gas. As the results, solubility of $SO_2$, decreased with increasing the temperature, had considerable influence on the global composition in the Bunsen reaction system. The amounts of impurity in each phase(HI and $I_2$ in $H_2SO_4$-rich phase and $H_2SO_4$ in $HI_x$-rich phase) were decreased with increasing $H_2SO_4$ molar ratio and temperature. To control the amounts of impurity in $HI_x$-rich phase, temperature is a factor more important than $I_2/H2_O$ molar ratio. On the other hand, the affinity between $HI_x$ and $H_2O$ was increased with increasing $I_2/H2_O$molar ratio.

Cellulase was modified with synthetic copolymers of polyoxyethylene derivative and maleic acid anhydride. The saccharification characteristics and enzymatic reaction kinetic mechanism of modified and native cellulases were observed. In modification reaction of cellulase, degree of modification(DM) increased, as mass ratio of copolymers to enzyme increased. Maximum DM was 55% at mass ratio of 4 and remained activity was 75%. In saccharification experiment modified enzyme had maintained higher stability than native enzyme over all the reaction and the final conversion yield of modified enzyme was greater than that of native enzyme. Numerical simulation based on the reaction mechanism considering enzymatic deactivation was performed. Modified enzyme had kept higher free enzyme concentration over all the reaction than that of native enzyme. Comparing calculation values with experimental data, calculation values were in accordance with experimental data.

Effects of poly-${\gamma}$-glutamate (PGA) on antioxidative characteristics of amino-carbonyl reaction products of glucose were investigated. Rapid browning reaction was observed under heat and alkaline condition (pH 8.2). Browning products were separated by Sephadex G-50, and brown color intensity and electron-donating ability of DPPH (2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl) of each fraction were measured. Fraction-7 (F-7) and -20 (F-20) showed high DPPH scavenging values. UV-VIS absorption spectrum of F-20 was similar to melanoidin peak, and F-7 showed maximum absorption peak at 270 nm. Molecular weight of F-7 was over 35 kDa as determined by SDS-PAGE. Although F-20 could not be measured on SDS-PAGE, its size was smaller than F-7.

In D-T fusion reaction, $D_2$ (duterium) and $T_2$(tritium) are used as fuel gas. The exhaust gas of nuclear fusion includes hydrogen isotopes $Q_2$ (Q means H, D or T), tritiated components ($CQ_4$ and $Q_2O$), CO, $CO_2$, etc. All of hydrogen isotopes should be recovered before released to the atmosphere. This study focused on the recovery of hydrogen isotopes from $CQ_4$ and $Q_2O$. Two kinds of experiments were conducted to investigate the catalytic reaction characteristics of SMR (Steam Methane Reforming) and WGS (Water Gas Shift) reactions using Pt catalyst. First test was performed to convert $CH_4$ into $H_2$ using 6% $CH_4$, 6% CO/Ar feed gas. In the other test, 100% CO gas was used to convert $H_2O$ into $H_2$ at various reaction conditions (reaction temperature, S/C ratio, GHSV). As a result of the first test, $CH_4$ and CO conversion were 41.6%, 57.8% respectively at $600^{\circ}C$, S/C ratio 3, GHSV $2000hr^{-1}$. And CO conversion was 72% at $400^{\circ}C$, S/C ratio 0.95, GHSV $333hr^{-1}$ in the second test.

Interfacial reaction characteristics of a Bi-10Cu-20Sb-0.3Ni Pb-free alloy on Cu pad was investigated by reflow soldering at $430^{\circ}C$. The thickness of interfacial reaction layers with respect to the soldering time was also measured. After the reflow soldering, it was observed that a $(Cu,Ni)_2Sb$, a $Cu_4Sb$ intermetallic layer, and a haze layer, which is consisted of Bi and $Cu_4Sb$ phases, were successively formed at the Bi-10Cu-20Sb-0.3Ni/Cu interface. The total thickness of the reaction layers was found to be linearly increased with increasing of the reflow soldering time up to 120 s. As the added Ni element did not participate in the formation of the thickest $Cu_4Sb$ interfacial layer, suppression of the interfacial growth was not observed.

Air lime is a traditional building material of Korea. It had been used in roofs, walls, floors and masonry joints of traditional buildings until the advent of Portland cement. However, due to its low strength and durability, the lime is currently avoided as a repair or restoration material for the preservation of architectural heritage. Furthermore, due to the current practice of using hydraulic materials such as Portland cement, understanding of the material characteristics of air lime is very poor in practice. In this context, this study intended to improve the mechanical properties of the air lime mortar by reducing water contents, and also the carbonation reaction of the mortar was quantitatively evaluated to clearly understand the characteristics of this material. Accordingly, air lime mortar with a water-to-binder ratio of 0.4 was manufactured using polycarboxylate-type superplasticizer. During the 7 days of sealed curing period, the mortar did not harden at all. In other words, there was no reaction required for hardening since it could not absorb carbon dioxide from the atmosphere. However, once exposed to the air, the compressive strength of the mortar began to rapidly increase due to the carbonation reaction, and the strength increased steadily until the 28th day; after then, the strength development was significantly slowed down. On the 28th day, the mortar exhibit a compressive strength of about 5 MPa, which is equivalent to the European standard regarding strength of hydraulic lime used for preservation of architectural heritage.
