With the development of micrototal analysis systems (${\mu}TAS$), which is a result of enhancement of MEMS technology, rapid progress has been achieved in medical and biological research. The study of lab-on-a-chip (LOC) devices, which are types of ${\mu}TAS$ and which integrate the functions of mixing and analyzing tiny amounts of samples and reagents on one chip, has actively progressed. An LOC comprises microfluidic components such as micromixers and micropumps. Because the flow in a microfluidic system is generally laminar, it is very difficult to efficiently mix and feed fluid reagents. This paper presents the design and the method of fabrication of an MHD micropump for mixing fluids. By using this micropump, fluids are simultaneously mixed and pumped; this is achieved by coupling the Lorentz force and force exerted by an electric charge moving in an electric field.

In this paper, we fabricated along distance wireless communication transmitter and receiver over the 100 which used NRD technology. To make the transmitter and receiver of 400Hz band using the non radiative dielectric wave guide, transmitter was composed of gm oscillator, m modulator and antenna, receiver was composed of local gum oscillator, balanced mixer, 3dB direction coupler and antenna. Also we executed a wireless communication image transmission examination to the transmitter and receiver. We receive the image information in real-time data transmission from receiver after we send the image signal in the wireless distance of the 10km. Therefore, the 400Hz band U transmitter and receiver to be developed will be used widely for the transmission system CATV or broadband transmission system. This will be utilized also to the link device of a long distance high speed wireless communication network.

A pilot scale coagulation system, which has a function of physicochemical treatment, was developed to treat Combined sewer overflows(CSOs). This coagulation system requires evaluation of optimum design factors whether it has reflected those of lab scale system, moreover, the pilot scale system can be evaluated differently according to the characteristics of influent CSOs even though it has reflected lab scale's design factors. We conducted an experiment using lab scale system that could treat $1m^3$ of CSOs in a day, and also pilot-scale system with $100m^3/day$ CSOs flowed into the Cheongju sewage treatment plant. Therefore the aim of this study is to evaluate a hydraulic similarity between the design factors of pilot scale and those of lab scale coagulation system, and to evaluate feasibility of the coagulation system for the CSOs treatment with optimum operation conditions. From the result of pilot-test, we drew the optimum operation factors of in line mixer and flocculator having similarities with those of lab scale system as well as the optimum coagulant dose. Finally we confirmed that the coagulation system has feasibility to treat the CSOs with high removal efficiency.
