The adsorption characteristics of cationic metals such as copper, cadmium, and lead onto the amorphous aluminum oxide, AMA-L, which was mineralized from raw sanding powder at $550^{\circ}C$ were investigated. Additionally, surface complexation reaction of cationic heavy metals onto AMA-L was simulated with MINEQL + software employing a diffuse layer model. From the batch adsorption tests in a single element system, the adsorption affinity of each metal ion onto AMA-L was following order: lead > copper > cadmium. In a binary system composed with copper and cadmium, quite a similar adsorption affinity was observed in each metal ion compared to the single element system. When the surface complexation constants obtained in the single system were used in the prediction of experimental adsorption results, model predictions were well fitted with experimental results of both single and binary systems.

Phase behavior of carbon dioxide + surfactant binary system and carbon dioxide + surfactant + water ternary system was investigated at the temperatures from 318 K to 348 K by using high pressure vapor liquid equilibrium apparatus containing variable-volume view cell. Sorbitan monopalmitate was used as the surfactant. The cloud point pressures for the binary mixture of carbon dioxide + sorbitan monopalmitate increased with an increasing of system temperatures and the maximum cloud point pressure was observed at the composition of 0.226 wt% of sorbitan monopalmitate. On the other hand, as the temperatures and compositions of water increased, the cloud point pressures for ternary system containing 0.1 wt% of sorbitan monopalmitate increased significantly. For the ternary system of constant 0.2 wt% of water, the cloud point pressure curves show relatively flat according to the change of compositions of surfactant. The cloud point pressures increased when the temperatures and compositions of water increased.

Frontal analysis(FA) and Pulsed input method(PIM) have been frequently utilized to measure isotherm of single solute, as well as non-competitive isotherms of two solutes in chromatography(1). FA and PIM were used in this study as complementary methods to measure adsorption isotherms of loxoprofen racemate in HPLC. Prior to FA and PIM experiments, measurements of loxoprofen solubility were made at hexane/ethanol=50/50, 80/20, 95/5(v/v) with acetic acid(0.5%) for adjusting pH. The last composition(95/5) of hexane/ethanol allows us to separate loxoprofen racemate into two forms(retentate, extract). PIM and FA were used to determine the isotherms of re-and ex-loxoprofen.

In this work, high pressure binary phase equilibria data of carbon dioxide and isopropyl alcohol were obtained by experiment. A static type experimental apparatus was made to measure temperature, pressure and phase equilibria composition. The experimental apparatus was tested by comparing the measured phase equilibria data of the carbon dioxide-isopropyl alcohol system at $80^{\circ}C$ with those of Rodosz. The binary phase behavior data of carbon dioxide-isopropyl alcohol system were measured in range of 41 to 133 bar and at temperatures of 40, 60, 80, 100 and $120^{\circ}C$. The solubility of isopropyl alcohol increases as the temperatures increases at constant pressure. Also, these carbon dioxide-alcohol solute system have critical-mixture curves that exhibit maxima in pressure at temperatures between the critical temperatures of carbon dioxide and isopropyl alcohol. The experimental data obtained in this study were modeled using the statistical associating fluid theory(SAFT) equation of state. A good fit of the data was obtained with SAFT using two adjustable parameters for the carbon dioxide-isopropyl alcohol system.

High-pressure phase behavior for the binary mixture of 1-propanol with supercritical $CO_2$ has been measured by means of a high-pressure phase equilibrium apparatus equipped with a variable-volume view cell. The equilibrium loci of the pressure - composition and pressure - temperature were obtained for the binary mixture of 1-propanol + $CO_2$ system at 305.15 K, 313.15 K, 323.15 K and 333.15 K, and from 2 MPa to 11 MPa. The critical temperature of the mixture increased with the temperature. The pressure-composition line for the binary mixture of $CO_2$-1-propanol system showed a typical type-II phase behavior. The experimental P-x envelopes were correlated by using the Peng-Robinson equation of state in a satisfactory manner to obtain the parameters with $k_{ij}=0.116$ and ${\eta}_{ij}=-0.065$.

Water-soluble terpolymer of acrylamide, diacetone acrylamide, and acrylic acid was prepared by redox initiators in aqueous medium. One component photoresist was synthesized by reaction of terpolymer with 4-azidoaniline. By blending the aqueous acrylamide/diacetone acrylamide copolymer solution with bisazide, 4,4'-diazidostilbene -2,2'-disulfuric acid sodium salt, two component photoresist was prepared. The photosensitivity per azido group unit mole of one component photoresist was 4 times higher than that of two component photoresist. The dot-type pattern was successfully achieved with one component photoresist at low exposure energy, which is prospective to be used as black matrix negative photoresist.

The viscosities of organic compounds (alcohols, acetates, alkanes, acids, substituted $NH_2$) in liquid states, gas states and the binary mixtures of n-alkane / 1-chloroalkane were calculated by molecular modeling techniques. The molecular descriptors of molecular modeling technique are Molecular connectivity indices, Wiener indices and ad hoc descriptors, which can encode the information of compound properties about the effect of size, branching, cyclization, unsaturation, heteroatom content, polarizability, and so on. The successful results among method have been Molecular connectivity indices, binary mixtures of n-alkane / 1-chloroalkane, Wiener indices for gas state and ad hoc descriptor for liquid states. Also we obtained the regression equations for viscosities using molecular modeling indices for gas, liquid states and binary mixtures of n-alkane / 1-chloroalkane. The calculated viscosity values for organic compounds are in good agreement with experimental results.

In recent years, the amount and number of synthetic organic compounds(SOCs) discharged from various industries has been increasing. Granular activated carbon(GAC) adsorption is one of the best available technology to remove SOCs from water supplies and wastewater. In this paper competitive adsorption for binary mixture of 4-nitrophenol and phenol on reverse stratified tapered adsorber(RSTA) using GAC was studied. Two isotherm experiments were conducted, one for phenol and the other for 4-nitrophenol. The phenol data of binary mixture isotherm were not fitted to Freundlich isotherm. The competitive adsorption increased significantly with decreasing carbon dose and increasing adsorbate concentration. The RSTA was found to provide an increase in breakthrough time when decreasing flow rate, increasing angle and injection layers. The performance enhancement provided by RSTA can be exploited in separation and in the purification of fluids.

In this study, modeling and optimization works were completed for the separation of 99.9 mol% of methyl ethyl ketone from water through a pressure-swing distillation process since the azeotropic composition varies very sensitively with the change of system pressure. PRO/II with PROVISION release 9.1 was used for the computer simulation and Wilson activity coefficient model was chosen as a modeling equation. A pressure-swing distillation process can be classified into a low-high pressure columns configuration and a high-low pressure columns configuration. In this work, each configurations were optimized for the minimization of steam consumptions, respectively and were compared.

Presently, mass concrete structures are being built in federal and private projects of civil infrastructures and building structures. The hydration heat of mass concrete structures is the most important factor in the quality of concrete matrix and construction period. Moreover, internal cracks caused by hydration heat degrades durability, water tightness, and strength of concrete. To reduce hydration heat, it is necessary to blend belite cement (${\beta}-C_2S$) with industrial by-products (i.e. granulated slag and fly ash). In this experiment, 14 levels of binary binders and 4 levels of ternary binders were used to understand the effect of different replacement ratio on hydration heat, strength and microstructure (i.e. SEM and XRD) of mortar. Cumulative hydration heat at 28 days for the binary and ternary binders was affected by replacement ratio of fly ash and/or granulated slag. As fly ash content increased, hydration heat decreased. As granulated slag content increased, reduction rate of the hydration heat was lower than when fly ash was used. Especially, the hydration heat of ternary binder blended with 40% flyash and 30% granulated slag showed about 50% of hydration heat from using belite cement (P). The study results showed that the temperature rise of concrete matrix can be decreased by using blended belite binders producing low hydration heat and reasonable strength.
