A sulfonated PP-g-styrene ion-exchange hollow fiber membrane was prepared by pre-irradiation method with E-beam followed by sulfonation reaction. Degree of grafting increased with the increase of styrene monomer concentration and showed the maximum value of 128% at 80% of styrene monomer composition. Sulfonation yield increased with the degree of grafting. At 100% degree of grafting, sulfonation yield showed the maximum value of 13.4%. Ion exchange capacity of sulfonated HPP-g-styrene of 3.42 meq/g was attained, resulting in the remarkable increase of adsorption ability BET analysis proved that the surface area of sulfonated HPP-g-styrene was 62.54 $m^2/g$ and the mean pore size was 25 $\AA$. From the BSA adsorption experiments, the adsorption amount of BSA was increased with sulfonation. At 13.4% sulfonation yield the adsorption amount of BSA was maximum as 3.8 mg/g. Sulfonated HPP-g-styrene was synthesized successfully and suitable for the adsorption and separation of BSA.

For the separation and recovery of n-pentane from nitrogen environment, the poly (dimethyl siloxane) (PDMS) composite membranes supported by polyetherimide (PEI) hollow fiber membranes were prepared. To characterize the gas separation properties of the resulting membranes, the permeance of n-pentane and nitrogen, concentrations of permeate and retentate, and recovery ratio were measured for n-pentane and nitrogen mixtures. The permeance of n-pentane and nitrogen, 2485.3 and 9.9 GPU, were observed respectively. As the stage cut decreases and the feed concentration increases, the n-pentane concentration in permeate tends to increase. In the meanwhile, the recovery efficiency tends to increase as the stage cut increases and the feed concentration decreases.

This paper presents the synthesis of ampholyte immobilized hollow-fiber membranes and adsorption characteristic of metallic ions. This is prepared by radiation induced grafting polymerization of an epoxy group containing Glycidyl methacrylate (GMA) onto an existing polyethylene porous hollow-fiber membrane. Ampholyte ion-exchanged alkalic group, $-NH_2$ (amine function) of Taurine (TAU) is reacted with glycidyl of GMA for the synthesis of stable membrane. However, Sodium sulfite (SS) membrane is also prepared by making chemical bonds with GMA of porous hollow-fiber membrane for the comparison of adsorption characteristic of metallic ions. These are called as TAU and SS membranes, respectively. It is shown that TAU membrane shows a steady flux, 0.9 m/h regardless of the density of TAU, while the flux of SS membrane decreases rapidly as the density of $SO_3H$ group increases. SS membrane showed a negligible flux. TAU membrane with the density 0.8 mmol/g shows the amount of metallic ions adsorbed in the following order, Cu > Cd > Mg > Sb > Pb. In general, TAU membrane with high density and reaction time showed the high amount of metallic ions adsorbed and flux.

A method was developed for concentrating fish pathogenic virus from sea water using membrane ultrafiltration system and centricon. The method consists of passing large volumes (Ca. 20 liter) of sea water through ultrafiltration (PAN) filter followed by cross-flow filtration method and centrifugation use the centricon (Plus-20). This procedure permitted the processing of 20 liter of sea water which resulted in a 20,000-fold reduction in the volume of water and greater than 90% recovery of the seeded MABV.

In this study, the thermal conductivity, physical and mechanical properties of lightweight aggregate concretes with hollow micro sphere(HMS) are experimentally examined as a basic research for the development of structural insulation concrete. As the results of this experiment, in the case of concrete mixed with HMS, the value of slump has been reduced, so it is found that the dosage of superplasticizer should be increased. As the replacement ratio of HMS increases, it has shown that the compressive strength is somewhat decreased due to the low interfacial adhesion strength of HMS. But the thermal conductivity is found to be greatly improved with the replacement ratio of HMS increases, the thermal conductivity of HMS shows the lower value of 68% at lightweight aggregate concrete and 32% of normal concrete. Also it is found that the compressive strength is decreased and thermal conductivity is increased as the water-cement ratio increases. The most outstanding for insulation performance is observed when using 20% of HMS and 50% of water-cement ratio.

The use of membranes for MBRWG (Membrane Bioreactor for Waste Gas) treatment can provide highly selective separation of a waste gas stream followed by effective biological removal. MBRWG have several potential advantages, among which the most distinctive one is separation of gas and liquid phases at each side of membrane potentially allowing the optimal biomass control toward effective biodegradation of target gases as well as biofilm activation. This advantage becomes especially favorable for removal of hydrophobic toxic gases, such as xylene, by MBRWG systems, because the mass transfer, the toxicity, and thereby the biodegradation of hydrophobic gas treatment requires sensitive handling of liquid stream and water control near biofilm. Among various membranes for MBRWG treatment, PDMS-hollow fiber membranes provide the high gas mass transfer. Despite lower specific surface areas, capillary type membranes are also applied current MBRWG studies. In addition to the main application of membranes as biofilm supporter in MBRWG systems, there can be another application of membranes in a posterior process for removal of residual gases or dusts emitted from conventional biological waste gas treatment processes.

사망원인통계연보는 사망발생 당년에 신고된 사망 자료만 수록하고 있는데, 본 연구에서는 사망원인통계연보에 수록된 사망(당년신고, 또는 비지연신고)은 물론 수록되지 아니한 사망(지연신고)의 사인구조를 파악하고자 한다. 부차적으로, 사인구조를 평가하기 위해서 지연신고의 다양한 특성을 검토하고 있다. 1983년부터 1993년까지 신고된 모든 사망신고를 기초로, 지연신고와 당년신고라는 신고행태에 따라 사인별 사망구성비, 사망률, 사망률성비를 구하였다. 지연신고율이 지속적으로 감소하고 있지만, 지연신고율은 다른 집단보다 여성, 젊은층, 의사진단사망자, 병원사망자에게서 더 높다. 당년신고 사망자의 성별 사인구조와 비교해 볼 때, 지연신고 사망자의 주요 사인구조는 성별에 따라 달라지는데, 남성에게는 감염성질환, 순환기계질환, 호흡기계질환의 비중이 더 커지고, 여성에게는 감염성질환, 호흡기계질환 및 소화기계질환의 비중이 더 커진다. 1983~1993년 동안 신고된 모든 사망에 대한 주요 발견은 다음과 같다. 첫째, 순환기계질환, 악성 종양, 손상 및 중독이 남녀 모두에게 주요 3대 사인이다. 둘째, 만성 간질환, 각종 사고, 폐암, 자살은 남성에게 치명적인 사인으로서 남녀의 성별 사망력 차이를 넓혀주는 원인이다. 세째, 손상 및 중독, 특히 교통사고는 45세 이하의 젊은 층에게 중요한 사인이 되는데 반해, 순환기계질환, 악성 종양, 소화기계질환은 고령층에게 중요한 사인이 된다.

Precast reinforced concrete bridge columns with hollow rectangular section were tested under cyclic lateral load with constant axial force to investigate its seismic performance. After all the precast column segments were erected, longitudinal reinforcement was inserted in the sheath prefabricated in the segments, which were then mortar grouted. Main variables of the test series were column aspect ratio, longitudinal reinforcement ratio, amount of lateral reinforcement, and location of segment joints. The aspect ratios were 4.5 and 2.5, and the longitudinal steel ratios were 1.15% and 3.07%. The amount of lateral reinforcement were 95%, 55%, 50%, and 27% of the minimum amount for full ductility design requirements in the Korean Bridge Design Code. The locations of segment joints in plastic hinge region were 0.5 and 1.0 times of the section depth from the bottom column end. The test results of cracking and failure mode, axial-flexural strength, lateral load-displacement relationship, and displacement ductility are presented. Then, safety of the ductility demand based seismic design in the Korean Bridge Design Code is discussed. The column specimens showed larger ductility than expected, because buckling of longitudinal reinforcing bar was prevented due to confinement developed not only by transverse steel but also by sheath and infilling mortar.

Hydrophobic porous PVDF hollow fiber membranes for Membrane Distillation (MD) were fabricated by a combination of thermally induced phase separation (TIPS) and stretching. The purpose of this study is to investigate the shape and operating conditions of the module and the effect of piping size on parallel connection. In the optimization experiment of the vacuum membrane distillation module, the flux decreased as the packing density and length of the membrane in the module increased. When the module was connected vertically, it was confirmed that the nearest to the inlet of the vacuum port was the highest flux. In selecting the size of the header pipe of the module, it was confirmed that the maximum flux is shown when the inner diameter area of the hollow fiber membrane and the inner diameter area of the header pipe are the same. Also, it is necessary to find the optimal linear velocity because the higher the linear velocity in the module, the higher the flux, but the pressure acting on the module also increases proportionally.
