All-solid-state batteries are promising energy storage devices in which high-energy-density and superior safety can be obtained by efficient cell design and the use of nonflammable solid electrolytes, respectively. This paper presents a systematic study of experimental factors that affect the electrochemical performance of all-solid-state batteries. The morphological changes in composite electrodes fabricated using different mixing speeds are carefully observed, and the corresponding electrochemical performances are evaluated in symmetric cell and half-cell configurations. We also investigate the effect of the composite electrode thickness at different charge/discharge rates for the realization of all-solid-state batteries with high-energy-density. The results of this investigation confirm a consistent relationship between the cell capacity and the ionic resistance within the composite electrodes. Finally, a concentration-gradient composite electrode design is presented for enhanced power density in thick composite electrodes; it provides a promising route to improving the cell performance simply by composite electrode design.

In order to investigate the quantitative and qualitative properties of leachate with different composition of MSW in solid waste landfill, three lysimeters filled with bottom ash only (Lysimeter A), bottom ash 70%+municipal solid waste 30% (Lysimeter B), and municipal solid waste only (Lysimeter C) respectively were operated under actual meteorological conditions. From the results, Lysimeter A and Lysimeter B were much higher than Lysimeter C in terms of cumulative generation rates of leachate. The pH in leachate from Lysimeter A are in the range of pH 9 to 11, however, the pH of the leachate was gradually changed to the neutral with time. In the case of $Cl^-$, leachates from Lysimeter A and B with bottom ash have high $Cl^-$ concentration whereas leachate produced from Lysimeter C has low $Cl^-$ concentration. In the Lysimeter C with municipal solid waste only, concentration of organic materials in the leachate was much higher than that of leachate produced from the other Lysimeters.

In this research a suspended solid transport experiment was conducted in the river experiment center to find the characteristics and dispersion of the material. Modeling by the particle dispersion model was also executed to reproduce the suspended solid transport. The suspended solid was consisted of a mixture of silica and water using a mixing equipment, which was then introduced into a real-scale flume and measured with the laser-diffraction based particle size analyzer(LISST) to find the concentration of the material. The comparison between the measured suspended solid concentration using drone images and particle size analyzers, with the model showed a good match overall, which proved the applicability of the model. Along with finding the model applicability, the research showed the potential for suspended solid estimation in high flow situations with high rainfall.

Solid lipid nanoparticles(SLN) are particulate systems for parenteral drug administration and suitable for controlled release. SLN were prepared by homogenization process. Dispersion at increased temperature (molten lipid) was performed to yield SLN loaded with lipophilic drugs. Tetracaine base, lidocaine base, prednisolone, methyltestosterone and ethinylestradiol were used as model drugs to access the loading capacity and to study the release behavior. To investigate production parameters(lipids, surfactant concentration, homogenizing rpm) in the formation of SLN, particle size was performed by laser diffraction analysis. The mean particle size of SLN with stearic acid or trilaurin was below 1 micron. By decreasing the particle size and increasing the surfactant concentration, the release rate was increased especially in the case of highly lipophilic drug loaded SLN. Methyltestosterone or ethinylestradiol loaded SLN showed a distinctly prolonged release over a few days.

In the present work, the breakup mechanism of highly viscous epoxy paints discharged from a fan spray nozzle was examined experimentally. The paints tested were non-Newtonian fluids, composed of epoxy resin, solid particles and other additives. The paint spray discharged from the nozzle was visualized and recorded using a digital camera with back illumination. Due to presence of the solid particles, perforation of liquid sheet was observed in most cases, even at low-Reynolds number conditions (Re < 15,000) where the aerodynamic-wave breakup mode is used to be dominant for pure liquids. However, with the increase of the particle concentration, the sheet became longer and the thickness at breakup became thinner to some extent. This is because, with higher concentration of solid particles, the stabilizing effect by the viscosity increase predominates over the destabilizing effect by perforation.

In this study the basic data were settled down to establish theory of membrane module and apparatus for measuring suspended solid per particle size. The theory and technique were different with the conventional weight method and light scattering method. For this purpose silica, dextran, kaolin, and PEG (polyethylene glycol) suspended solutions were filtrated through glass fiber membranes GF/C and GF/A on membrane module for measuring TMP (Trans-membrane pressure) changes using digital pressure gages. And the related equation between modified solution concentration and TMP change slope was derived from the TMP change experiments, and then suspended solid concentration of samples could be expected by the equation.

An investigation is conducted to study a solid-liquid mixture vertically upward hydraulic transport of solid particles by non-Newtonian fluids in the Mud system. Rheology of particulate suspensions in viscoelastic fluids is of importance in many applications such as particle removal from surfaces, transport of proppants in fractured reservoir and cleaning of drilling holes, etc. In this study a clear acrylic pipe was used in order to observe the movement of solid particles. Annular velocities varied from 0.4 m/s to 1.2 m/s. The mud systems which were utilized included aqueous solution of sodium carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC) solutions. Main parameters considered in the study were inner-pipe rotary speed, fluid flow regime and particle injection rate. Solid volumetric concentration and pressure drops were measured for the various parameters such as inclination angle, flow rate, and rotational speed of inner cylinder.

The diffusion phenomena of water, solid and reducing sugar in Chinese cabbage during salting (5$0^{\circ}C$, 25% salt solution) and desalting (5$0^{\circ}C$, distilled water) were investigated. Water loss and solid gain during salting were rapid in the first 6hrs and then almost leveled off. After 24hrs of salting, water loss and solid gain in 100g of initial wet Chinese cabbage were 33.35g and 6.26g respectively. Moisture content was changed from 94.29% to 83.11% during 24hrs of salting. The reducing sugar concentration was also changed from 29.2 mg/$m\ell$ to 6.5mg/$m\ell$, which was linearized as a function of the square root of salting time and showing that Y=30.1841-5.0269√t. After 24hrs salting, water gain and solid loss during desalting were rapid in the first 4hrs and then increased linearly. After 12hrs of desalting, the water gain and solid loss in 100g of initial wet Chinese cabbage were 20.82g and 9.14g respectively. The amount of solid loss after 12hrs desalting was higher than that of solid gain after 24hrs salting due to the diffusion of solute presented initially in the Chinese cabbage during salting and desalting. The concentration of salt in Chinese cabbage after 12hrs desalting was 2.98% which was a suitable salt concentration for the preparation of Kimchi. At this time, the concentration of reducing sugar was only 1.6mg/$m\ell$. The linear regression equation of reducing sugar concentration during desalting was Y=6.7854-1.5992√t.
