Saline water electrolysis, known as chlor-alkali (CA) membrane process, is an electrochemical process to generate valued chemicals such as chlorine, hydrogen and sodium hydroxide with high purities higher than 99%, using an electrolytic cell composed of cation exchange membrane, anode and cathode. It is necessary to reduce energy consumption per a unit chemical production. This issue can be solved by decreasing intrinsic resistance of the membrane and the electrodes and/or by reducing their interfacial resistance. In this study, the electron radiation grafting of a $Na^+$ ion-selective polymer was conducted onto a hydrocarbon sulfonated ionomer membrane with high chemical resistance. This approach was effective in improving electrochemical efficiency via the synergistic effect of relatively fast $Na^+$ ion conduction and reduced interfacial resistance.

Nylon membrane was used to separate ethanol-water by a pervaporation method. Experimental equations were derived to use the simulation of membrane-aided distillation using nylon. The increases in permeation pressure resulted in the decrease in selectivity and energy consumption. The energy cost to enrich ethanol from 94 wt% to 99.5 wt% was calculated to be 53.3 won/kg of ethanol with extractive distillation and 18.9 won/kg of ethanol with a pervaporation method. The saving energy by the pervaporation method is consumed by recycling the permeate residue into the distillation column in the membrane-aided distillation column. Therefore, membrane with the high selectivity to minimize the permeate residue recycle is required to effectively enrich ethanol in the membrane-aided distillation method.

This experiment was conducted to investigate the effect of plug cell volume and medium on rooting and growth of lateral shoot cuttings of a few tomato cultivars. Plug cell volume was varied from 23 to 300 mL or control (cutting bed) and media used were carbonized rice hull (CRH), CRH+perlite, CRH+peatmoss and perlite+peatmoss. Nursery plants were able to be transplanted in 15 to 20 days after lateral shoots cutting in tomato. In volume of cutting media, the pots of 23 to 300 mL were proper, although root growth was gradually limited in decreased media volume. Rooting and growth was not influenced by plug tray cell medium of 120 mL or more. Cherry tomato Pepe (c.v.) showed 100% rooting and better growth, while in Momotaro (c.v.) rooting was 90%. There were 100% rooting and no considerable changes grown in all media tested of cutting plug tray volume of 30 mL.

There have not been many studies conducted on the seedling production, especially in plug trays, of traditional medicinal plant species. In an effort to establish guide lines for seedling production, this study investigated the effect of plug cell size on the growth and development of plug seedling of three medicinal plant species. Seeds were sown in either 128, 200, or 288-cell plug trays, containing a commercial medium. Growth and development of individual seedling was generally promoted with increasing size of a plug cell in all of the three species. The greatest biomass of the seedlings gained in a plug tray was obtained in the 288-cell trays in Perilla frutescens var. acuta Kudo and Sophora tonkinensis, and the 200-cell trays in Angelica gigas Nakai. Overall growth and development of the shoot and root of a single seedling of Perilla frutescens var. acuta Kudo, except total chlorophyll and anthocyanin contents, was the greatest in the 128-cell tray. However, length of the longest root, length, width and area of the leaf, internode length, root fresh weight, and root ball formation in the 200- and 288-cell trays were not significantly different each other. In Sophora tonkinensis, although length of the longest root, stem diameter, leaf width, leaf area, shoot fresh weight, and root ball formation were not significantly different among the treatments, length of the longest root and root ball formation of a single seedling were the greatest in the 128-cell tray. Overall shoot and root growth, except total chlorophyll content, of a single seedling of Angelica gigas Nakai was the greatest in the 128-cell tray. Based on the total biomass, it is concluded that 288-cell trays are recommended for production of plug seedlings of medicinal plant species P. frutescens var. acuta Kudo and S. tonkinensis. In A. gigas Nakai, it would be more economical to use the 200-cell trays than 128-cell trays due to total biomass.

The electrode material is one of the factors affecting the power production of microbial fuel cell. In this study, effects of carbon electrode material, thickness and configuration on the power density, biofilm formation and microbial community diversity of microbial fuel cell were investigated. To optimize the anode-cathode electrode assembly, seven lab-scale reactors which had various carbon electrode constructions were operated in continuous mode. Under the steady state condition, the electrode combination of graphite felt (6 mm) with hole showed the highest cell voltage of 238 mV and the coulombic efficiency of 37%. As a result of SEM analysis, the bacteria growing on surface of knitted type of carbon cloth and graphite felt electrode ncreased significantly. The change of dominant species between seeding sludge and biofilm on the surface of anode electrode, microbial analysis with PCR-DGGE showed that the dominant species of seeding sludge are quite different from those of biofilm on the surface of each anode electrode. Especially Geobacter sp., a well known electrochemical bacteria, was found as the dominant species of the electrode combination with graphite felt.

As the demand for a clean energy to replace fossil fuel being depleted increases, hydrogen energy is considered as a promising candidate for future energy source. Water electrolysis which produces hydrogen has high energy efficiency and stability but still has a large overpotential for oxygen evolution reaction (OER). In this study, $Co_3O_4$ catalysts with different morphology were prepared by spray pyrolysis from solutions which contain Co precursor and various organic additives (urea, sucrose, and citric acid), followed by post heat treatment. For the catalysts synthesized, X-ray diffraction (XRD) measurements were performed to identify their crystal structure. Morphology and surface shape of the catalysts were observed by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). Surface area and pore volume were examined by nitrogen adsortpion & desorption tests and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) was conducted to confirm nitrogen doping. Linear sweep voltammetry (LSV) was carried out to investigate OER activity of $Co_3O_4$ catalysts. As a result, bare-$Co_3O_4$ which has high surface area and small particle size determined by spray pyrolysis showed high activity toward OER.

This study was carried out to develop the stable plug seedling production for hydroponics of spinaches by various nursery media, plug tray size and seed number per plug tray cell. When plant grown in various nursery media, the seeding stand rate was shown in order of granular rockwool with good water retention, granular rockwool>granular rockwool mixed with pearlite>cocopeat>pearlite>poly urethane foame. Thus, poly urethane foame indicated the lower seedling stand rate. There was no difference in growth of the seedlings md the seeding stand rate by the plug tray size, and no significant difference in the plant height and the number of leaves among the seed number per plug tray cell. But, leaf area of plant in 2 grains seeding per cell was $113.0cm^2$, was wider in compared with 5 grains seeding of which leaf area was $88.0cm^2$. Accordingly, the leaf area per plant decreased as more and more the number of seeds per plug tray cell increased. The fresh weight of a plant per plug tray cell was the heaviest with 12.5g in the 2 grains, and the total fresh weight of plants per cell was 33.9g in 4 grains seeding, thus it tended to was bigger compared with other treatments. Consequently, given that the number of seeds per cell was decreased, the fresh weight of a plant increased. On the other hand, the total fresh weight per cell showed a tendency to be reducing as more and more the number of seeds per plug tray cell decreased. The yield in the 4 grains seeding was increased by 46% as $14,910kg{\cdot}ha^{-1}$ in compared with the yield in 2 grains seeding as $10,200kg{\cdot}ha^{-1}$.

Membrane process was investigated to recover process water and valuable gold from washing water of electroless PCB plating processes. The filtration experiments were carried out using not only a RO membrane test cell to determine suitable membrane for washing water but also spiral wound membrane modules of nanofiltration and reverse osmosis for scale-up. At first, RO-TL(tap water, low pressure), RO-BL(brackish water, low pressure) and RO-normal(for water purifier) sheet membranes made by Saehan Co. were tested, and the performance of RO-TL membrane showed most suitable f3r recovery of soft etching, catalyst and Ni washing waters. As a result of RO test cell, the experiments for scale-up were carried out using RO-TL modules far water purifier at 7bar and $25^{\circ}C $The permeate flux fur Au washing water was about 30 LMH, but Au rejection was less than 80%. The permeate fluxes for Pd, Ni and soft etching washing water were about 22, 17 and 10 LMH, respectively. The Pd, Ni and Cu rejections showed more than 85, 97 and 98% respectively. The nanofiltration module for water purifier was introduced to recover Au selectively from Au, Ni and Cu ions in Au washing water. Most of Ni and Cu ions in the feed washing water were removed, and only Au ion was existed 81.9% in the permeate. Furthermore, Au ion in the permeate was concentrated and recovered by RO-TL membrane module. Finally, Au was also able to recover effectively by using 4 inch diameter spiral wound modules of NF and RO-TL membranes, in series.

비냉각 적외선 검출소자는 빛이 전혀 없는 환경에서도 사물을 감지하는 열상장비의 핵심소자이다. 마이크로볼로미터 적외선 검출기는 상온에서 동작하며, 온도안정화를 위해 TEC를 장착하여 진공패키지로 조립된다. 패키지는 진공을 유지할 수 있도록 일반적으로 메탈로 제작되며, 단가 감소 및 생산성 증대를 위해 wafer level packaging 방법을 이용한다. 마이크로볼로미터의 특성은 패키지의 진공 변화에 매우 민감하다. 센서의 감도를 증가시키기 위해서는 진공환경을 유지해야 한다. 볼로미터 소자의 특성은 상압에서 열전도는 기판과 멤브레인 사이의 에어갭을 통해 열손실을 야기하므로 센서의 반응도가 현저히 줄어든다. 에어갭이 1 um 정도 되더라도 그 사이에 존재하는 열전도가 가능하므로 진공을 유지하여 열고립 상태를 증대시킬 수 있다. 이에 본 연구에서는 소자의 동작시 압력, 즉 진공도가 볼로미터 소자의 반응도 특성에 미치는 영향을 조사하였다. 마이크로볼로미터 소자는 $2{\times}8$ 어레이 형태로 제작하였으며, metal pad를 각 단위셀에 배치하였으며, 공통전극으로 한 개의 metal pad를 넣어 설계하였다. 흡수체로써 VOx를 사용하였으며, 열 고립구조를 위해 2.5 um 공명 흡수층의 floating 구조로 멤브레인을 형성하였다. 진공패키지는 메탈패키지를 제작하여 볼로미터 칩을 TEC 위에 장착하였으며, 신호의 감지를 위해 가변저항을 매칭시켰다. 반응도는 신호 대 잡음 값을 획득하여 소자에 도달하는 적외선 에너지에 대해 반응하는 값을 계산에 의해 얻어내는 것이다. 픽셀 크기는 $50{\times}50$ um이며, 패키지 조립 공정 후 온도변화에 따른 저항 측정을 통해 TCR 값을 얻었다. 이때 TCR은 약 -2.5%/K으로 나타났다. $2{\times}8$의 4개 단위소자에 대해 측정한 값은 균일하게 TCR 값이 나타났다. 광반응 특성은 볼로미터 단위소자에 대해서 먼저 고진공(5e-6 torr) 하에서 측정하였으며, 반응도는 25,000 V/W의 값을 나타내었고, 탐지도는 약 2e+8 $cmHz_{1/2}$/W로 나타났다. 패키지의 압력 조절을 위해 TMP 및 로터리 펌프를 이용하여 100 torr에서 1e-4 torr의 범위에서 압력조절 밸브를 이용하여 질소가스의 압력으로 진공도를 변화시켰다. 적외선 반응신호는 압력이 증가함에 따라 감소하였으며, 2e-1 torr의 압력에서 신호의 크기가 감소하기 시작하여 5 torr에서 반응도의 1/2 값을 나타냄을 알 수 있었다. 30 torr 이상에서는 신호가 잡음값 과거의 동일하여 신호대 잡음비가 1로 나타남을 알 수 있었다. 또한 진공도 변화에 대해, 흑체온도에 따른 반응도 및 탐지도의 특성을 조사한 결과를 발표한다. 반응도의 증가를 위해 진공도는 진공도는 1e-2 torr 이하의 압력을 유지해야 함을 본 실험을 통해 알 수 있었다.
