비 수용성 유기오염물(NAPL; non-aqueous phase liquid)로 오염된 불균질 토양을 계면활 성제를 이용하여 정화할 경우 효율성을 알아보기 위해 칼럼 및 박스 실험을 실시하였다. 불 균질한 지하 내부구조는 정화효과에 커다란 영향을 끼치는 것으로 알려져 있으나 이에 대한 연구는 매우 미비한 형편이다. 2차원 불균질 분포를 잘 나타내주는 박스실험을 통하여 실제 지하매질에 가까운 조건에서 실험을 실시하였다. PCE(tetrachloroethylene)와 xylene이 NAPL로 올리에마이드(01eamide)가 비이온-계면활성제로 이용되었으며, 1%용액과 증류수를 주입하여 NAPL을 세정하였고 가스크로마토그래피를 이용하여 NAPL의 농도를 분석하였다. 계면활성제를 주입할 경우가 증류수를 주입할 때보다 최대유출농도가 약 200배 정도가 높게 나타났으며 빠른 시간 내에 대부분의 NAPL이 정화되었다. 본 실험을 통하여, 불균질 매질에서의 계면활성제를 이용한 토양세정방법의 효율성이 정량화 되었으며, 계면활성제를 이용한 채수주입법의 현장 적용가능성을 확인하였다.

For CFCs and Halons regulated by Montreal Protocol and their alternatives of HFC-23, HFC-125 HFC-227ea, HFC-236fa and the mixtures of inert gases of $Ar, N_2 and CO_2$, the thermodynamic properties of saturated pressure, density, enthalpy and viscosity were compared. In this study, the data from literature were expressed as a function of temperature. Thermodynamic properties of HFC compounds were similar to those of Halon-1301. Inert gas was mainly used as a mixture, but the physical properties of the inert gas does not have the favorable advantages over those of Halon-1301.

Thermally-driven effusion of inert gases out from Si(100), into which energetic $\~l keV\;He^+,\;Ne^+,\;A^r+,\;and\;Kr^+ ions$ had been implanted at a moderate substrate temperatures of $\~400 K$, was investigated by means of temperature-programmed desorption (TPD) mass spectrometry. While He effused out broadly over $500\~1,100 K$, Ne, Ar, and Kr effusion occurred sharply at 810, 860, and 875 K, respectively. Hydrogen adsorption/desorption analysis for the ion-treated Si(100) surfaces indicated minimal to severe damage by ions with increasing mass from He to Kr. Implications of these results in light of literature reports are discussed.

We measured flame extinguishing concentration and flue gas composition in the n-heptane fuel cup-burner system using inert gas agents such as nitrogen, argon, carbon dioxide and their mixtures. The flame extinguishing concentration of binary gaseous mixture was well predicted by model which contains the flame extinguishing concentration and composition of pure components. The higher average specific gravity of the mixed inert gas agents, the more excellent flame extinguishing performance. And the structure of enclosed space also affects the fire extinguishing. The composition of carbon dioxide in the flue gas was decreased with increasing extinguishing agent used. Nitrogen monoxide production is not related with increasing nitrogen, but increased at rapid mass flow rate of air in the cup-burner.

Lipase from Geotrichum candidum was heat inactivated in 0.1M phosphate buffer solution. The thermal inactivation followed first order kinetics for the range of temperatures $50^{\circ}-80^{\circ}C$ except at $50^{\circ}C$. The changes in enthalpy, entropy and Gibbs free energy at $60^{\circ}C$ were 120.4 kJ/mol, 73.0 J/mol K and 96.9 kJ/mol respectively a value of $19^{\circ}C$(Geotrichum candidum lipase) is greater than that of lipases from milk and pancreas. The effect of detergents, lecithin and linoleic acid or the thermal inactivation of lipase was found to be negligible.

In this study, activated carbon fibers (ACFs) were treated by oxy-fluorination to improve the adsorption property of benzene gas, one of the gases causing sick house syndrome. Surface properties and pore characteristics of oxyfluorinated activated carbon fibers were confirmed by X-ray photoelectron Spectroscopy (XPS) and Brunauer-Emmett-Teller (BET), and adsorption properties of benzene gas were evaluated by gas chromatography (GC). As a result of XPS data, it was confirmed that the fluorine functional groups on activated carbon fibers surface increased with increasing the fluorine partial pressure. The specific surface area of all samples decreased after the oxyfluorination treatment, but the micropore volume ratio increased when the fluorine partial pressure was at 0.1 bar. The oxyfluorinated activated carbon fibers adsorbed 100 ppm benzene gas for an 11 h, it was found that the adsorption efficiency of benzene gas was improved about twice as much as that of untreated ones.

In the present study, A356 melt degassing experiments were conducted under various impeller rotation speed and inert gas flow rate conditions to determine changes in the melt temperature, composition and density during a degassing treatment. The melt temperature was found to decrease gradually as the degassing time increased, but a clear correlation between the impeller rotation speed or inert gas flow rate and the melt heat loss could not be confirmed. Regardless of the impeller rotation speed or inert gas flow rate, the Mg and Ti contents in the A356 melt scarcely changed, even after degassing for more than 10 minutes, while Sr contents decreased at the maximum degassing rate of 70 ppm. From a quantitative analysis of the degassing rate under each experimental condition based on the hydrogen concentration in the melt derived from the melt density and the degassing model equation, the inert gas flow rate was found to affect the degassing rate rather than the impeller rotation speed under the degassing operation condition employed in the present study.

Studies of the inactivation of a gene encoding pyruvate decarboxylase, pdc, in an ethanol-producing bacterium, Zymomonas mobilis, identified a mutant strain with 50% reduced PDC activity. To evaluate the possibility of a carbon-flux shift from an ethanol pathway toward higher value fermentation products, including pyruvate, succinate, and lactate, fermentation studies were carried out. Despite attempts to silence pdc expression in the wild-type strain ZM4 using cat-inserted pdc and pdc-deleted homologs by electroporation, the strain isolated showed partial gene activation. Fermentation experiments with the PDC mutant strain showed that the reduced expression level of PDC activity resulted in decreased rates of substrate uptake and ethanol production, together with increased pyruvate accumulation of 2.5 g l^-1 , although lactate and succinate concentrations were not significantly enhanced in these modified strains. Despite numerous attempts, no strains were isolated in which complete pdc inactivation occurred. This result indicates that the ethanol fermentation pathway of this bacterium is totally dependent on the activity of the PDC enzyme. To ensure a redox balance of intracellular NAD and NADH levels, other enzymes, such as lactate dehydrogenase for lactate, and enzymes involved in the production of succinic acid, such as pyruvate dehydrogenase (PDH) and malic enzymes, may be needed for their increased end-product production.

탄소섬유나 활성탄소섬유(activated carbon fiber, ACF)는 일반적으로 출발물질에 따라 polyacrylonitrile(PAN)계, 아크릴(acryl)계, 피치(pitch)계, 페놀(phenol)계 등으로 분류할 수 있다. 보통 습식, 용융 혹은 용융분사(melt-blown) 방사 방법에 의해 섬유 형태로 형성한 다음 산화성 가스 분위기에서 불융화 과정을 거쳐 열에 대한 안정성을 부여하여 불활성 분위기에서 탄소화하여 탄소섬유를 제조하거나, 수증기나 이산화 탄소와 같은 산화성 분위기에서 활성화하여 활성탄소섬유를 제조한다.
