Study on extraction and concentration of mulberry leaf were performed to increase utilization as new source of food additives. We analyzed extraction method in EtOH, sugar and hot water solution. The desirable method was 70% alcoholic extraction. Color of concentrate was comparatively stable in 70% alcoholic extraction solution and sugar solution. But hot water extraction was showed color change with brown. By filtering of concentrate in 70% alcoholic extraction and sugar extraction, we removed a deposits. Also, we investigated characteristics of the concentrate from mulberry leaf.

The pretreatment process was carried out to solubilize the sewage sludge for enhancing its biodegradability using alkaline treatment, ultrasonic treatment(15kHz), ozone treatment and different combination of these three methods: alkaline followed by ultrasonic as well as ozone, and ultrasonic followed by alkaline. The solubilization efficiency was evaluated based on the SCOD/TCOD ratio and VSS/TS ratio. In results, the proper condition of alkaline treatment was shown as 30meq/l of NaOH, pH 12 and 3hours of reaction time. Solubilization efficiency increased to 17% from initial 2% based on SCOD/TCOD ratio under this condition. In ultrasonic treatment, the higher ultrasonic power, the longer treatment time and the lower sludge volume resulted in higher solubilization respectively. There was a rapid increase in solubilization efficiency after 20 minute, then it was measured as 32% of SCOD/TCOD ratio in 1 hour at a ultrasonic power of 1,300W with 1/sludge. Solubilization efficiencies in combined treatment using alkaline and ultrasonic were 47-53% higher than single treatment at a sonicated time of 1 hour. Ozone treatment followed by alkaline treatment also represented the enhanced solubilization compared to ozone treatment. Therefore, ultrasonic or ozone treatment assisted by alkaline could achieve the short treatment time as well as high solubilizetion efficiency.

The effects on dewaterability and settlability of wastewater sludge according to acid and ultrasonic pretreatment which was expected to change ECP (exocellular polymers) compounds in the sludge and bulk solution was investigated. Though ECP which attached to the sludge could stimulate coagulation of sludge particles by bridging effect, but ECP in the bulk solution deteriorated dewaterability and settlability of the sludge on the contrary. That is as the pH of the solution was decreased to 3 gradually by acid treatment, proportionally ECP in the bulk solution was attached to the sludge flocs and resulted in improvement of dewaterability and settlability of the sludge. In case of ultrasonic pretreatment, with proportional to the intensity and duration of ultrasonic application, ECP was detached and extracted from sludge flocs and these phenomena deteriorated dewaterability and settlability. Also because of the increasement of minute sludge particles according to ultrasonic, dewaterability became so much the worse.

The extraction methods of PBBs from environmental samples by soxhlet extraction for solid phase and liquid-liquid extraction for liquid phase were compared. After extraction, silicagel and florisil as column clean up methods were used for the comparison of cleanup efficiency with different solvent system. Also, the analytical instruments were used GC/MSD. The 22 kinds of PBBs standards were used to establish the analytical methods to perform the experiments of recoveries and detection limits in water and soil. The detection limits of PBBs represented 5~10 ng/L for water and 0.5~3.5 ng/g for soil samples, respectively. The recoveries of water samples represented 96~107% in n-hexane, dichloromethane and toluene for water, and 60~80% in combined solvent with n-hexane and acetone. The recoveries of soil sample were surveyed 67~97% in soxhlet extraction and 64~76% in ultrasonic extraction with selected solvents.

The tire damage classification method is researched on the periodicity detection of ramdomness ultrasonic signals to occur at the driving vehicle tire. Setting method of adaptive threshold is proposed in order to valid pulse detection by tire damage in ultrasonic noise on the road and used low pass filter for decrease signal ramdomness as preprocessing. Time interval of detected pulse is setted the density function depend on the vehicle's speed and the method of tire damage detection is proposed that measuring the first peak's time of time density function.The result of time density function in case of one damage material, the first peak's time is measured within the error limit of tire's rotation period, 169.8ms and 97.9ms and 81.8ms, about the speed of 50km/h and 80km/h and 100km/h. In case of more than one damage material, the sum of each peak's time is measured within the error limit of tire's rotation period about the speed.

We investigated the effects of organic acid and ultrasonication treatment in maintaining the quality of garlic during storage. Samples were exposed for 5 min to either ultrasonication at 60℃, 1% citric acid, or 0.5% fumaric acid. Presence of microorganisms and minerals, hardness, and color were compared during storage at 4℃ for 28 days. The total aerobic bacterial count remained low. No proliferation of Escherichia coli was observed after treatment with fumaric acid or ultrasonication, and mold proliferation was inhibited by ultrasonication. The mineral content of the northern type garlic was higher than that of the southern type. Exposure to fumaric acid did not result in a substantial difference in hardness until 21 days of storage, at which time there was a decrease in the L-value in each cultivation type. Our results indicate that treatment with 0.5% fumaric acid for 5 min was effective in reducing the abundance of microorganisms during storage without affecting the hardness or color in garlic.

Diamond thin films were deposited on p-type (100) Si wafers using MPECVD. Prior to deposition, ultrasonic striking was done to improve density of nucleation sites with dimond powder of 40~$60\mu$m size. Then diamond thin films were deposited at $^900{\circ}C$, 40Torr and 1000W microwave power using ${CH}_{4}$ and ${H}_{2}$ gases. The purity, the morphology and the microstructur'e and microdefects of diamond thin films were characterized by Raman spectroscopy, SEM and TEM, repectively. In Raman spectroscopy the peaks of non-diamond phase increased as ${CH}_{4}$, concentration increased. In SEM, the morphology of diamond thin films varied from crystalline to cauliflower as ${CH}_{4}$, concentration increased. As ${CH}_{4}$ con centration increased, the density of defects increased, with most defects being {III} twin. ${MTP}_{5}$, were formed with five (II]) planes. As these (Ill) Planes were twinned, ${MTP}_{5}$, represented five-fold symmetry. ]n the interfaces, defects in diamond thin films fanned out from small regions implying nucleation sites.

In order to investigate the relation between sewage sludge solubilization and extracellular polymeric substances(EPS) during alkaline-ultrasonic pretreatment, SCOD/TCOD ratio, solubilization rate, VSS/TS ratio, VSS reduction rate, LB-EPS(Loosely-Bound EPS) and TB-EPS(Tightly-Bound EPS) were measured. At the condition of TS 1.0% and pH 12, solubilization rate increased by 27.7%, LB-EPS as Carbohydrate and Protein increased by 14.6 and 13.3 mg/L/g TS, respectively. Withal, VSS decreased by 26.7% and TB-EPS as Carbohydrate and Protein were extracted by 15.7 and 21.9 mg/L/g TS, respectively. Consequently, the concentrations of organic matter and LB-EPS increased and the trends appeared similarly. In addition, the concentrations trend of decreasing solid matter and extracted TB-EPS also appeared similarly.

NDT (Non Destructive Test) of the adhesive joints is very important because their strengths have greatly affected by the worker's skill and environmental condition. Recently, the electric impedance method in which 1-2 wt% CNT was dispersed in the adhesive and the electric resistance of the adhesive joint was measured was suggested for the defect detection of the adhesive joint. The uniform dispersion of CNT in the electric impedance method is very important to make a constant electric resistance of the adhesive joint and the accuracy of defect detection depends on the uniform dispersion. In this paper, the adhesive joints in which CNT was dispersed in the adhesive by the four dispersion methods were made and their electric resistance were measured. The pre-process and evaporation process of CNT using the ultrasonic method and agitation method was used and the effective dispersion method was suggested. Also, the criteria to evaluate the dispersivity was proposed.
