Voltammetric analysis of Cl(I) ion was performed using a metal gold (Au) electrode (AE) and a carbon nanotube electrode (CNTE). After the examination, the AE was found to have more sensitively detected Cl(I) than CNTE. The optimum analytical conditions for the cyclic voltammetry (CV) and the square wave (SW) stripping voltammetry were performed using AE. The detection limit of $6.5\;{\mu}g/L$ Cl(I) was attained. The developed techniques were compared with the common Cl meter and applied to water systems.

Possibility of the selective removal of $Ca^{2+}$ ions from a mixed solution of $Na^{+}$ and $Ca^{2+}$ ions using membrane capacitive deionization (MCDI) was investigated. Adsorption equilibrium experiments were conducted to determine the selectivity of the CMX cation-exchange membrane toward $Ca^{2+}$ ions. In addition, desalination experiments for a mixed solution (5 meq/L NaCl + 2 meq/L $CaCl_{2}$) were performed using an MCDI cell. The adsorption equilibrium of CMX membrane showed that the equivalent fraction of $Ca^{2+}$ ions in the solution and the CMX membrane were 28.6 and 87.2%, respectively, which indicates the CMX membrane's high selectivity toward $Ca^{2+}$ ions. Desalination experiments were performed by applying a constant current to the MCDI cell until the cell potential reached 1.0 V. The amount of ions adsorbed did not significantly change as the applied current was changed. However, the equivalent fractions of $Ca^{2+}$ ions among the adsorbed ions were inversely proportional to the applied currents: 81.4, 78.4, 77.0, and 74.5% at 200, 300, 500, and $700\;A/m^{2}$ of applied current density, respectively. This result is attributed to the increased fraction of $Ca^{2+}$ ions adsorbed by the CMX membrane at lower applied current densities.

AAPM TG43 report has recommended to measure air kerma strength with the strength of source. Main purpose of this study is to verify the accuracy of air kerma strength provided by manufacturer. Materials for this study were MAX-4001 Electrometer, HDR 1000 Plus of the corporation of standard imaging, and 6 french bronchial Applicator with 1000 mm. we measured ionization current in 10-90 mm range from the bottom of the central axis of chamber. The reference point of calibration displayed by the maximum ionization current in the ionization current curve was measured, and air kerma strength was computed from the maximum ionization current. we acquired 50 mm distance to correspond with the maximum ionization current in the ionization current curve. Its distance has perfectly fitted to the source reference point of calibration certificate of UW-ADCL. Air kerma strength computed value has measured about 0.5% more than calibration value provided by manufacturer. Air kerma strength of calibration certificate provided by manufacturer has acquired reliable results. This study shows that considering the move error of dwell position of source and the dead space length in well-type chamber is a good way to get an accurate result.

본 연구에서 제시하는 기공세라믹(Porous Ceramic)에 의한 누설전류 측정법은 기공 사이즈가 일정한 Open Pore Cell내에서 도전성 물질 및 이온화된 물질이 기공 사이에 침투되었을 때 외부에서 전계를 가하므로 써 이들 이온화 된 물질이 chain처럼 배열되어 전기적 병렬회로를 구성시켜 미세한 누설전류를 흐르게 한다. 이 누설전류법에 의한 도전성분 검출을 여러 환경 배출가스에 대한 모의실험을 실시한 결과 기공세라믹인 센서 자체의 누설전류는 가스 온도 150 ($^{\circ}C$) 이상에서 급격한 변화를 보이고 200($^{\circ}C$)에서 센서 자체의 전류치와 가스를 주입하였을 때의 전류치와는 상당한 격차를 두고 변화됨을 알 수 있었다. 그리고 공장연돌이나 자동차 배기관에서 방출되는 가스 중 HC, CO, NO, $CO_2$, $SO_2$, $N_2$ 등에 대한 센서 특성이 각각 달리 나타남을 알 수 있었다.

Transfer of lanthanide ions across the liquid/liquid interface facilitated by ionopore ETH4120 has been studied by using cyclic voltammetry (CV) and chronopotentiometry with cyclic linear current-scanning (CPCLCS) under the condition where the concentration of ETH4120 in nitrobenzene was much smaller than the concentration of lanthanide ions in aqueous solution. One cathodic current peak (transfer from aqueous to nitrobenzene phase) and two anodic current waves (transfer from nitrobenzene to aqueous phase) were observed. The cathodic wave was due to the formation of 1:1 (metal:ligand) complex and two anodic waves showed successive formation of 1:2 and 1:3 complexes in nitrobenzene solution. But there was no cathodic wave corresponding to two anodic waves. The ion transfer mechanism has also been discussed.

심장 이온통로의 변화는 활동전압의 모양과 길이에 영향을 주어 심부정맥을 유발한다. 산화적 스트레스의 증가로 인해 생체에 침착이 증가하는 지질산화물 (4-HNE, 4-ONE)는 여러 단백질 및 이온통로에 영향을 주는 독성이차전달자로 알려져 있다. 본 연구자는 선행 연구를 통해 4-HNE와 4-ONE의 단기간 노출이 심실근세포에 발현되는 3종류의 이온통로 ($I_{Kr}$, $I_{Ks}$, $I_{Ca,L}$)의 전류감소와 kinetics변화를 일으키고, 심실근세포의 활동전압길이가 증가하는 것을 확인하였다. 두 물질이 이온통로들에 준 영향은 유사하였으나, 활동전압길이의 증가 정도가 4-ONE에서 더 크게 나타났다. 활동전압의 연장에 차이가 나는 원인과, 두 지질산화물이 또 다른 이온통로에 미치는 영향 유무를 예측하기 위해서 Grandi and Bers human ventricular model[1]을 적용한 Integrated human ventricular myocyte model 프로그램 (developed by prof. Youm)을 활용하였다. 시뮬레이션으로 재현한 4-HNE와 4-ONE에 의한 활동전압은 실험으로 기록된 것보다 연장 정도가 작았다. 시뮬레이션 모델의 background $Na^+$ 전류의 크기를 크게 하였을 경우, 실험에서 기록된 활동전압 길이에 상응하는 연장을 가져왔다. 그러므로, 4-HNE와 4-ONE는 실험으로 확인한 $I_{Kr}$, $I_{Ks}$, $I_{Ca,L}$ 이외에 심장세포에 존재하는 내향전류 (Late $Na^+$ current)의 크기를 증가하는 효과가 있음을 예측할 수 있으며, 실험적 검증이 요구된다.

Current density is an important operating parameter in the ion-exchange membrane process. We observed the effects of fouling of a Neosepta AMX anion-exchange membrane(Tokuyama Soda, Japan) in 0.02 M NaCl solution containing 100 mg/L sodium humate. Membrane fouling was analyzed by measuring the change in the electrical resistance in the under- and over-limiting current density regions. The experimental results found that membrane fouling was negligible at under-limiting current densities, but was increased significantly when an over-limiting current was supplied. After the fouling experiments, the current-voltage curves for the fouled membranes were measured. From the curves, we observed increased electric resistance and reduced limiting current density(LCD), caused by the accumulation of humic acid on the membrane surface. Furthermore, membrane fouling increased as the acidity of the electrolyte solution containing humic acid increased. This occurred because the fouling of an anion-exchange membrane is affected more by the physicochemical properties of the humic substance than by the surface charge of the humate.

A study has been made for the electrochemical destruction of cyanide ions and removal of zinc ions from a simulated electroplating wastewater by the use of a platinum platized-titanium anode and a stainless steel cathode. Several experimental parameters, including electrolysis time, cell current, additives, and chloride concentration, have been investigated and used for efficient destruction of cyanide waste and removal of zinc ions from aqueous solutions. It was found that cell current and type of additives gave great effects on the destruction of cyanide ions and removal of zinc ions. The optimized conditions (electrolysis time: 1hr, current: 12A, additive: 0.5 M NaCl) have been defined to destroy cyanide ions and remove zinc ions with high efficiency and low operation cost. The proper reaction mechanism leading to the destruction of cyanide on the anode has also been discussed.
