In order to fabricate dense cordierite ceramics without sintering aid, thermal behavior of Mg-Al-Si compounds during sintering was investigated. The dispersibility of cordierite suspension in aqueous media was measured by ESA(electrokinetic sonic amplitude). To prevent aggregation and insufficient dispersion of the cordierite sol, the pH of the suspension was controlled to 1.03 and 8.30 by adding $2N\;HNO_3$ and $2N\;NH_4OH$, respectively. Magnesium-aluminum-silicate complex gel coexisted in the specimen which has been gelled at $150^{\circ}C$ fir 12 hours, however several metastable phase such as ${\mu}-cordierite(Mg_2Al_4Si_5O_{18}),\;spine(MgAl_2O_4)\;and\;mullite(Al_6Si_2O_{13})$ existed below $1300^{\circ}C$ Nucleation rates of the two suspension were similar, but densification of the gel was sensitive to the pH of the sol. Densification of the sol with the pH of 8.3 was more pronounced than that of the sol with pH of 1.63.

This paper proposes a extended service filtering technique to solve overload control problems inService Con-trol Poin(SCP) due to Televoting (VOT) services with heavy traffic characteristics. Also, this paper compares this new technique with existing IN overload control lechniques, and calculate steady state call blocking probabilities in In under overload conditions. The proposed technique considers SCP overload and IN CS-1services such as VOT service that need to use the specialized resources of IP. This technique uses first an activating step which SCP sends service filtering request to SSP and IP for the start of service filtering. Then, in the filtering step SSP sendas filtering results to SCP periodically or each N-calls.Also,when filtering time-out timer expired or call counter value exceeded maximum number of calls,SSP stops service filtering,and sends ser-vice filteing response to SCP in the deactivating step. The application of this techique to VOT service defined in IN CS-1 service is investigated and analyzed by using an analytical VOT service model.In order to apply this technique to VOT service, this paper also discusses VOT service and the corresponding N architecture including Service Switching Point(SSP),SCP and IP. Then this paper also constructs an analytical VOT service model,and calculates SCP and SSP/IP(circuit)call blocking probablities.With the application of this new technique,this paper shows good performance enhancements in SCP call blocking probability.

The applicability of the waste pulp which produced in the paper recycling process as an adsorbent for the treatment of $Ni^{2+}$ ion in wastewater has been investigated taking the initial concentration of adsorbate, temperature, the amount of adsorbent, and solution pH as the experimental variables. In addition, the effect of the concentration of coexisting solute and pre-treatment of adsorbent on the adsorbability of $Ni^{2+}$ ion were also examined. The electrokinetic potential of waste pulp was observed to be positive below pH 7.8 and negative above this pH. The adsorption reaction of $Ni^{2+}$ ion reached its equilibrium within 4 hours after the reaction was initiated and the adsorbed amount of adsorbate was found to increase with its initial concentration. The adsorbability of $Ni^{2+}$ was raised with temperature so that its adsorption reaction was considered to be exothermic, which was substantiated by thermodynamic calculation. Also, the adsorbed amount of $Ni^{2+}$ was raised with the amount of waste pulp and with pH in the range of pH $3{\sim}6$. This behavior of the adsorption of $Ni^{2+}$ according to the solution pH was well agreed with the electrokinetic characteristics of waste pulp in solution. The amount of coexisting solute was observed to reversely affect on the $Ni^{2+}$ adsorption onto waste pulp under the experimental conditions. With regard to the pre-treatment of adsorbent with NaOH, the adsorbability of $Ni^{2+}$ was increased with the concentration of NaOH to a certain extent. However, it was found to decrease contrarily when the concentration of NaOH became too high.

Considering considerable contents of vanadium and tungsten in spent SCR DeNOx catalysts, separation and recovery of those metals are required. In this respect, commercial anion exchange resin (MP600) was employed to recover vanadium from the synthetic solution of ammonium metavanadate. Experimental results indicated that vanadium exist as anion under the acidic condition (pH 2 ~ 6) and adsorbed on the resin. Although the adsorption rate was increased with temperature, the maximum amount of adsorption was not affected by temperature. Desorption took place under either strong acidic (less than pH 1) or strong caustic (higher than pH 13) condition. However, desorption seldom took place under moderate conditions (pH 3~11). Furthermore, adsorption equilibrium results agreed well with Freundlich isotherm and pseudo-second-order reactions. And, adsorption energy was evaluated using Dubinin-Radushkevich and Temkin isotherm.

When the flood occurs in the alluvial rivers, the rivers adjust to the flood by means of the mechanism of the river bed variations and its morphological changes to pass that safely, the numerical model was developed to simulate the process of the alluvial river bed variation due to flood wave and carried out by the flood routing for flood wave and the sediment routing for river bed variation. The flood wave, river bed variation, and bed material size distribution may be analysed and predicted by this model. The ability of this model to predict the process of river bed response was proved by the application to the reach from Paldang dam to Indogyo site. In view of the flood analysis considering the sediment process, the effects of river bed variation for the flood routing may be negligible because the river bed variation is smaller than the unsteady flow variation during the same period. By the application of this model, it is shown that, in occurring of sequential flood events, the variation of the river bed and bed material size distribution due to flood wave is more dependent on the first flood event than the latter flood events, and that the river bed variation in this reach of the downstream Han river is dependent on the degradation and the coarsening of bed materials.

Optimal extraction, separation and capillary rinsing conditions for capillary electrophoresis (CE) were established to discriminate the geographical origin of ligusticum root (Ligusticum wallichii) using 113 samples (domestic sample n = 62, foreign sample n = 51). Ligusticum root was extracted with 30% ethanol and separated on a uncoated fused-silica $(50\;{\mu}m{\times}27\;cm)$ capillary. Conditions for optimal analysis include: temperature, $40^{\circ}C$; voltage, 10 kV; and pressure injection time, domestic and foreign samples were 5 sec and 2 sec, respectively. The optimal separation buffer was 0.1 M phosphate buffer (pH 2.5) containing 15 mM iminodiacetic acid with 40% methanol. Under the optimal conditions established for CE, the ratio of specific peak area (peak LW-1) to other peak area (peak LW-5) was effective in discrimination geographical origin of ligusticum root. The mean accuracy for correct discrimination of geographical origin of domestic and foreign ligusticum roots were 65% and 63%, respectively.

Thermodynamic analysis on carbon dioxide reforming of methane was performed using a computer program which can handle condensed species in the products, and the reforming experiments were conducted over $Al_2O_3$, $La_2O_3$, ZSM-5, MCM-41, KIT-1 supported nickel catalysts, and a commercial ICI 46-1. It was estabished that a system which consists of $CH_4$, $CO_2$, CO, $H_2$, $H_2O$, and C is appropriate for theoretical equilibrium calculations and addition of water vapor or oxygen was found to diminish the contribution of carbon dioxide in reforming. Silicate molecular sieve-supported catalysts such as Ni/ZSM-5, Ni/MCM-41, Ni/KIT-1 were effective for high $CH_4$ and $CO_2$ conversions as well as for high CO yield. Coke formation was suppressed when CaO was added as a promoter. Ni/Ca/KIT-1 which contains 10% Ni with 3% Ca showed conversion approaching equilibrium levels above $650^{\circ}C$ and maintained constant activity over 20 h. Despite increased space velocity, relatively high conversion and CO yield were observed.

In the hydrogen compression cycle, which is currently being developed, hydrogen is compressed to a very high pressure using a compressor, and then stored and used in a high-pressure vessel. This shows that an increase in the temperature of hydrogen in the vessel due to a pressure rise during the filling process and the pressure fatigue due to the repeated cycle may cause problems in the reliability of the vessel. In this paper, for the entire processes in a 50 MPa hydrogen compression system, theoretical and numerical methods were conducted to analyze the following: the temperature increase of hydrogen in the vessel and the time required to reach thermal equilibrium with the surroundings, the change in temperature of hydrogen passing through the pressure reducing valve, and the required capacity of the heat exchanger for cooling the vessel. The results will be useful for the design and construction of hydrogen compression systems, such as hydrogen charging stations.

In this studies, the adsorption test using Chlorella pyrenoidosa was conducted to examine the effect of Pb adsorption according to various immobilized methods such as Ca-alginate, K-carrageenan, and Polyacrylamide. From the results, the duration to need to reach adsorption equilibrium was delayed according to the immobilization. And, the higher adsorption capacity of immobilized Chlorella pyrenoidosa was represented in the higher concentration of Pb, the smaller amount of immobilizing agent, and the higher pH of solution. The maximum adsorption capacity of Pb was shown in the adsorption test using Chlorella pyrenoidosa immobilized with Ca-alginate even though it was sensitive pH. The adsorption results properly represented with Freundlich isotherm equations. And, pseudo second-order chemisorption kinetic rate equation was applicable to all the biosorption data over the entire time range. The FT-IR analysis showed that the mechanism involved in biosorption of Pb by Chlorella pyrenoidosa was mainly attributed to Pb binding of carbo-acid and amide group. Adsorbed Pb on immobilized Chlorella prenoidosa was easily desorbed in the higher concentration of desorbents(NTA, HCl, EDTA, $H_2SO_4,\;Na_2CO_3$). Among the several desorbents, NTA showed the maximum desoption capacities of Pb from Chlorella pyrenoidosa immobilized with Ca-alginate and K-carrageenan and EDTA was the most effective in Chlorella pyrenoidosa immobilized with polyacrylamide. The desoprtion efficiency in the optimum condition was 90.0, 83.0, and 80.0%, respectively.

The solid and protein yields and extraction properties of color pigments were compared for 7 varieties of soybeans during soaking in water at $4-100^{\circ}C$. The varieties investigated were Paldal, Danyeob, Jangbaek, Baegun, Jangyeob and 2 cultivars of Local 1 and Local 2. The Hunter values showed that Jangbaek was the highest in 'L' value while other varieties except Local 1 and Local 2 were comparatively high in 'L' value. Local 1 and Local 2 were low in 'b' value. The yields of solid and protein during water extraction showed that most of solids and proteins were recovered with three consecutive extractions. The cumulated yields were 73.2 % for solid and 83.2 % for protein. Extraction of color pigments of seed coats in $4-100^{\circ}C$ water showed that the extraction rate was very much dependent on extraction time and temperature. A linear relationship of A=aT+b was obtained for equilibrated absorbance(A) and extraction temperature(T). The activation energy calculated from initial extraction rate of cole. pigments and temperature had two different values of low($4-60^{\circ}C$) and high($60-100^{\circ}C$) temperature range.
