This work presents that carbon dioxide, which is a main contributor to the global warming effect, could be utilized as a selective oxidant in the oxidative dehydrogenation of ethylbenzene. The dehydrogenation of ethylbenzene over alumina-supported vanadium-antimony oxide catalyst has been studied under different atmospheres such as inert nitrogen, steam, oxygen or carbon dioxide as diluent or oxidant. Among them, the addition of carbon dioxide gave the highest styrene yield (up to 82%) and styrene selectivity (up to 97%) along with stable activity. Carbon dioxide could play a beneficial role of a selective oxidant in the improvement of the catalytic behavior through the oxidative pathway.

The purpose of this fundamental study is to investigate the mechanism of high strength concrete using the high calcium sulfate cement from a point of view in cement hydration and micro structure. As a results, it was found that the internal pores of concrete are decreased by using the high calcium sulfate cement, because the hydrates of Ettringite which is densified in structure is much formed in early ages at steam curing. In addition to the ettringite needs the 32 times of free water formed mixing water for hydration. This effect are not only decreased the water to cement ratio and also increase to comp, strength of concrete. It was conclude that these above the two facts are the main mechanism of high strength concrete using high calcium sulfate cement.

This study is to high early concrete development which reveals 14 MPa within 12 hours in order to reduce the mold time of dismantlement and not do the steam curing of the precast concrete product. About (40~50) min could shorten the final setting time if the coagulation test result cement amount 100 kg/m3 was increased. In the case of the compressive strength, it was exposed to be satisfied the target value with the cement amount 500 kg/m3 combination according to the hardening accelerator addition.

The study investigated pre-service teachers' knowledge and computational skills by using Triangular Arithmagon. Participants included 90 pre-service teachers from two schools in the United States and Taiwan. The Triangular Arithmagons Test (TAT) was used to measure pre-service teachers' performance in whole number, fractions, and decimals operations (i.e., addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division), each of which included level-1 (basic) and level-2 (advanced) tests. MANOVA analysis was performed to compare the performance between teachers from the United States and Taiwan. Results indicated that overall, pre-service teachers in Taiwan outperformed those in the United States, especially on the advanced-level tests. Pre-service teachers in the United States were found to have poor ability of solving complex operation problems. Different curriculum plans and teaching methods may lead to the performance gap between the two countries.

The objective of this study is to investigate the removal efficiency of volitile organic compounds in soil, and the mechanism of desorption by bench scale microwave heating, Silt soil used for experiment and was impregnated with toluene, tetrachloroethylene, o-xylene and p-dichlorobenzene and the microwave treatment was conducted in a modified domestic microwave oven : 2450MHz, 700W. According to the results of the research the removal efficiency was improved with increasing water contents and the soil temperature appeared to plateau period extending to 2-3minutes corresponds to the temperature a which steam distillation was expected. The value of removal rate constant (k) were calculated on dry and moisty silt soil, respectively, which showed linear with increasing microwave heating time. Therefore, addition of a certain amount of water to the contaminated soil can efficiently enhance the ability of the soil to absorb microwave energy and promote the evaporation of the volitile contaminants.

Pipe wall-thinning by flow-accelerated corrosion (FAC) is a significant and costly damage of secondary system piping in nuclear power plants (NPPs). All NPPs have their management programs to ensure pipe integrity from wall-thinning. This study analyzed the pipe wall-thinning caused by changing the amine, which is used for adjusting the water chemistry in the secondary system of NPPs. The pH change was analyzed according to the addition of amine. Then, the wear rate calculated in two different amines was compared at the steam cycle in NPPs. As a result, increasing the pH at operating temperature (Hot pH) can reduce the rate of FAC damage significantly. Wall-thinning is affected by amine characteristics depending on temperature and quality of water.

The heat transfer enhancement of heat sink with mist flow is studied numerically by solving the conservation equations for mass, momentum and energy in the continuous and dispersed phases. A Lagrangian method is used for tracing dispersed water droplets in the heat sink and an Eulerian species transport model for air and steam mixture. The continuous and dispersed phases are interacted with the drag and evaporation source terms. The computed results show that addition of evaporating mist droplets enhances the cooling performance of heat sink significantly.

디젤엔진에서 배출되는 배기가스 중의 주요 오염물질 중의 하나인 NOx(질소산화물)는 대부분 고온의 연소 과정에서 발생하고, 발생량은 연소온도에 따라 결정되는 것으로 알려져 있다. 또한 연료의 연소 중에 물이 첨가되면 연소공기의 비열 증가에 의하여 연소온도가 감소하여 NOx 발생량이 급격하게 감소하게 되는데, 연소실에 물을 첨가하는 방법으로는 유화연료, 직접물분사, 흡기가습 등이 있다. 이중 흡기가습은 구조가 간단하면서 NOx 저감효율이 가장 높은 것으로 알려져 있다. 본 연구는 당사 고유모델 중형엔진인 힘센엔진에 흡기가습 기술을 적용하여 연소성능 및 NOx 저감효과 등을 시험하고, 흡기가습 시스템의 상용화 모델 개발을 위한 기초 데이터를 확보하기 위해 수행되었다.

MF is a half shaft blast furnace which has been developed at Mitsui Miike Smelter in the 1960’s to treat vertical retort residue. The MF has also been tested for treatment of various recycling materials and wastes. Now various secondaries and wastes (EAF dust, zinc leaching residue, Cu sludge, etc ) are mainly treated. Powder materials are briquetted with reductant before being fed to the furnace. Products are crude zinc oxide, matte, non-hazardous slag and steam. Zinc and lead are recovered in oxide dust, and copper and silver are recovered in matte. The MF can be widely applied to many kinds of materials which contain such non-ferrous metal-valuables. In addition, the improvement in operation and technology has effectively made the unit capacity much larger. The MF now has many advantages for these treatment processes.

Several nuclear power plants in Korea have experienced wall thinning damage in the area around the impingement baffle-installed downstream of the high pressure turbine extraction stream line inside number 5A and 5B feedwater heaters. At that point, the extracted steam from the high pressure turbine is two phase fluid at high temperature, high pressure, and high speed. This paper describes operation of experience and numerical analysis composed similar condition with real high pressure feedwater heater. This study applied several impingement baffle plates to feedwater heater same as previous study. In addition, it shows difference of pressure distribution and value between single phase and two phase based on experience and numerical analysis.
