An anion-charged membrane was used for selective retention of coenzyme NAD(H) in reactor without any chemical modification. The membrane could reject permeation of NAD (H) (80.9%) but not reject permeation of product. The retention ratio was enhanced in the presence of albumin and Tris-maleate buffer. A bioreactor equipped with a membrane, NTR 7410 was constructed and used in the repeated batch production of sorbitol. NADH-dependent sorbitol dehydrogenase from sheep liver was used for the production of sorbitol from fructose. The coenzyme oxidized was regenerated with alcohol dehydrogenase. 47g/L sorbitol was produced for 198 hr with a substrate conversion ratio of 70%. The retention ratio was almost maintained throughout the entire reaction.

In this research, we studied the scale-up triboelectrostatic process for separation of PVC from higher gravity fraction of plastic wastes produced from wet gravity separation process. High density polyethylene (HDPE) was found to be the most effective materials for a tribo-charger in the separation of plastic tailings. In a commercial scale triboelelctrostatic separator unit, using the HDPE pipe-line charger, a grade of 99.1% with PET, PS and others and a recovery of 86% was obtained under optimum conditions at over 250 kV/m electric field, a splitter position of -8 cm from the center, and less than 40% relative humidity. The developed unit can process the plastic wastes at a 300 kg/h, and the product can be utilized as RPF or RDF of over grade 2.

The development of material separation technique for waste plastic recycling are the necessary situation restricted by law the reclamation and incineration of waste plastic after 2004, with enforcement of EPR (Extended Producer Responsibility) system. As the this study is the research on the development of electrostatic separation techniques for recycling of life circles waste plastic by development of charging material and charger, the separation efficiency can be improved. Therefore, we developed the charger and electrostatic separator to increase charging efficiency and material separation per object plastics, rising these equipments, we removed PVC up to $99\%$ from two kinds of mixed plastics. And in case of restricting PVC content such as PET, we developed the separation technique that can remove PVC up to $99.99\%$ from PET with PET recovery about $80\%$. Also, as we separated over $98\%$ for three kinds of mixed plastics, and then established material separation technique to increase recycling of plastic.

건식 전자 종이는 평행한 병렬 전극 사이에 하전 입자들이 놓인 구조로 전극간의 입자 천이 특성은 전자 종이의 동작에 직접적인 영향을 주게된다. 따라서, 하전 입자를 이용하여 제작된 전자 종이 샘플에 인가 전압에 따른 입자의 전극간의 천이를 통해서 전자 종이의 동작 특성을 살펴 보고자 한다. 입자의 천이 특성을 제작된 샘플의 조명에 의한 반사율 분석을 통해서 살펴 보았다. 입자의 천이 특성은 히스테리시스 특성을 나타냈으며 이러한 특성은 색상의 변화시켜야만 할때에만 전력 소비가 이루어지기 때문에 소비 전력이 작으며, 저비용의 수동 매트릭스 구동을 가능하게 함을 실험을 통해서 확인하였다. 6개 샘플의 특성 분석을 통해서 회색톤의 그림 또는 하이 콘트라스트의 글씨를 구현하기 위한 특성을 고찰하였다.

A well defined electro-spraying and electro-static precipitator(ESP) experiment is carried out to investigate the charging characteristics of the submicron particles and the monodisperse particles. The basic idea is that the highly charged electro-sprayed droplets will be produced into the gas when the Coulombic repulsive force on the surface is higher than the surface tension of the spraying liquid. During this process many highly charged smaller droplets or ions, if the droplets are completely dried out, will be produced in the space. These charged species will be attached ion the particles and then eventually charge the particles. These charged particles will be easily collected with ESP. The experimental results show that the atomizer generated particles with geometric mean diameter (GMD) of 62nm are charged more than 90% even at the mean face velocity of 2.5m/s at the charging zone.

Generally, the characteristic of nanofiltration membranes were catagorized into charged membrane, sieve effect, interaction between membarnes and target solutes. This study aims to investigate the effect item of heavy metal separation with view of charge nanofiltration membranes. The experiments of nanofiltration were conducted by nanofiltration set-up with operational pressure of 0.24 MPa at $25^{\circ}C$ by using synthetic wastewater containing 0.1mg/L of Cr, Fe, Cu, Zn, As, Sn, Pb. Nanofiltration membranes rejected heavy metals much better than chloride, sulfate and TOC, of which concentration in synthetic wastewater was higher than that of heavy metals. To consider rejection characteristics of various metals by nanofiltration membranes, separation coefficient, which is the molar conductivity ratio of the metal permeation rate to the chloride ion or TOC permeation rate, was introduced. In spite of different materials and different nominal salt rejection of nanofiltration membrane used, the separation coefficients of metals were nearly the same. These phenomena were observed in the relationship between the molar conductivity and the separation coefficient for heavy metals.

In 2006, the coal usage that is used as energy source of power plant will meet 16,000 MW which is 30% of the whole energy usage. A Coal deposits among the fossil fuels is very plentiful in natural resources and has high economical efficiency but application technique is very inconvenient. Also when burned for utilization, it generate various toxic and untoxic air pollution materials; fly ash, bottom ash, sulfurous acid gas etc. In this study, we could establish a preparation of clean coal by triboelectrostatic separation. In this study, we made a bench-scale's triboelectrostatic separation equipment using electrostatic technology, and got an optimum conditions of various factors for increasing recovery rate and purification in separation. A test result, we got a clean coal that recovery rate is 68.10%, rejection rate of ash and sulfur content is 31.23% and 28.33%.

A two-stage electrostatic precipitator (ESP) using a carbon brush charger and a plate-plate parallel aluminum collector was developed and its application for removal of oil mist aerosols was investigated. Charge number per particle and particle collection efficiency at different applied voltage to the carbon brush charger were measured and compared to those obtained by theoretical calculations. A long-term operation of the ESP during 9 weeks was also performed to evaluate its performance durability for oil mists. Average charge number per mist particle increased with the applied voltage to the charger, and thus the collection efficiency of the mist particles also increased overall at the particle size range of 0.26 - 3 mm. The tendencies of the average charge number per particle and particle collection efficiency obtained from theoretical calculations were considerably consistent with those of the experimental results. Particle collection efficiency of ~99 % at 0.3 mm could be achieved by power consumption of only 0.0033 W/($m^3/h$) at the face velocity of 1 m/s and its collection performance maintained stably during every 8 hr operation per day for 9 weeks with little increase of pressure drop.

To estimate the nitrogen budget and assess the purification function of a tidal flat ecosystem, a field survey was carried out at Hajeon tidal flat in Gomso Bay, the southern part of Byeonsan Peninsula, Chollabuk-do, Korea. A study area of 3.0$\times$4.5 ㎢ was established on the tidal flat and the concentrations of chlorophyll-a, DIN, DON, and TN were measured in the water column during the period of April 17-18, 1999: From the budget analysis, the loss rate of Chl-a was estimated to be -0.05 mg Chl/㎡/hr, which is approximately 7% of that at Issiki tidal flat in Aichi Prefecture, Japan. The lower loss rate of Chl-a in the study area was attributable to the lower standing crop of phytoplankton, the lower temperature that may reduce metabolic rates of biotic components and the lower biomass of macrobenthos in the study area. Over the 13.5 ㎢ of study area, Hajeon tidal flat removed 8.36$\times$10$\^$2/ kg N/day of TN, 5.36$\times$10$\^$3/ kg N/day of PON and 1.62$\times$10$\^$2/ kg N/day of phytoplankton-related PON, showing that the tidal flats may play an important role in removing nitrogen in coastal waters. The removal rate of PON, compared to the removal cost of the existing waste water treatment facilities, indicates that the economic value of the purification function of Hajeon tidal flat (13.5㎢) may be more than that of two large facilities.
