A series of samples in the $Nd_{-x}Sr_{x}CoO_{3-y}$ system (x = 0.00, 0.25, 0.50, 0.75 and 1.00) have been produced by heating the reactants at 1200${\circ}$C under atmospheric pressure. The solid solutions were analysed by X-ray diffraction spectra, thermal analysis, and SEM micrographs. X-ray powder diffraction assigns the compositions of x = 0.00, 0.25, 0.50 and 0.75 to the cubic system and the composition of x = 1.00 to the orthorhombic system. The reduced lattice volume is increased with increasing x values in the system. The mole ratio of $Co^{4+}$ or ${\tau}$ values are determined by the Iodometric titration method and are maximum at the composition of x = 0.50. The magnetic measurement shows that a ferromagnetism is appeared in the compositions of x = 0.00, 0.25, 0.50 and 0.75 and then an antiferromagnetism in the composition of x = 1.00. The measurement of the electrical conductivity shows that the semiconductivity is appeared in the composition of x = 0.00, 0.25 and 1.00 and the metallic conductivity in the composition of x = 0.50 and 0.75. The magnetic and electrical properties of the samples are discussed with the nonstoichiometric chemical formulas.

A hydrothermal process was used to synthesize dioctahedral smectite from dickite [$A1_2$$Si_2$$O_{5}$ $(OH)_4$], Dickite was previously activated by heating at $800^{\circ}C$ far 4 hours with $Na_2$$CO_3$. After the heat-treatment, $SiO_2$ was added for stoichiometry, The autoclaving was carried out in closed stainless steel vessel (about 1 liter) at the condition of various temperature, pressure, time etc. High quality smectite could be obtaind by heating at $290^{\circ}C$ under the pressure of 60 kgf/$\textrm{cm}^2$ for 48 hours. This experiment reveals that pH of the solution was an important factor and should be maintained at 10 to 11 for the formation of dioctahedral smectite. The synthesized smectite was identified as Na-beidellite by the treatment of ethylene glycol and Greene-Kelly test.

In this study, a new submerged membrane bioreactor process packed with granular sulfur (MBR-GS) was operated to identify the biological nitrogen removal behaviors with plating wastewater containing high-strength $NO_3{^-}$ concentration. The continuous denitrification was carried out at $20^{\circ}C$ with various nitrogen loading rates using synthetic wastewater, which composed of $NO_3{^-}$ and $HCO_3{^-}$, but also actual plating wastewater, which was collected from the effluent of the H metal plating company. As a result, high-rate denitrification in the range of $0.8kg\;NO_3{^-}-N/m^3\;day$ was accomplished at nitrogen loading rate of $0.9kg\;NO_3{^-}-N/m^3\;day$ using synthetic wastewater. Also, higher-rate denitrification with actual plating wastewater was achieved up to $0.91kg\;NO_3{^-}-N/m^3\;day$ at the loading rate of $1.11kg\;NO_3{^-}-N/m^3\;day$. Additionally, continuous filtration was possible during up to 30 days without chemical cleaning in the range of 20 cmHg of transmembrane pressure. On the basis of the proposed stoichiometry, ${SO_4}^{2-}$ production could be estimated efficiently, while observed alkalinity consumption was somewhat lower than theoretical value. Consequently, a new process, MBR-GS is capable of high-rate autotrophic denitrification by compulsive flux and expected to be utilized as an alternative of renovation techniques for nitrogen removal from not only plating wastewater but also municipal wastewater with low C/N ratio.

도시화, 산업화로 인해 하수처리장 유입하수 내 질소 농도가 증가하면서 그에 따른 부영양화 발생, 수생태계에 독성을 미치는 등의 악영향 또한 증가하게 되었다. 하수 내 고농도 질소를 처리하기 위해 1990년 초 연구가 시작되어 현재 보편적으로 사용되고 있는 생물학적 질소 제거 공정은 산소공급과 외부탄소원 보충 과정에서 상당한 비용이 소요된다. 이와 같은 문제점이 대두됨에 따라 고도의 질소 제거 공정이 요구되면서, 경제적으로 개선이 이루어져 기존의 질산화·탈질 공정보다 효율적인 혐기성 암모늄 산화 공정(ANaerobic AMMonium OXidation, ANAMMOX)이 제안되었다. ANAMMOX 공정은 혐기성 조건 아래 전자공여체와 전자수용체로써 암모니아성 질소와 아질산성 질소를 이용해 질소가스 형태로 질소를 제거하는 공정이다. 질산화·탈질 공정과 비교했을 때, 폭기과정에서의 산소요구량 감소, 외부탄소원 불필요, 질소 제거 과정 단축 등의 장점을 가진다. 본 연구는 수처리공정에서의 ANAMMOX 공정의 적용 가능성을 확인하고, 암모니아성 질소대비 아질산성 질소 비율에 따른 Mainstream ANAMMOX 공정의 효율 비교를 통해 공정의 안정성과 높은 제거효율을 확보할 수 있는 NH₄⁺ 대비 NO₂^- 비율을 도출하는데 목적이 있다. 실험실 규모의 Mainstream ANAMMOX 반응조에 적용한 비율은 선행연구를 비롯한 화학양론식에서 제시된 비율을 바탕으로 산정하였다. 1.00부터 1.30의 전체적인 비율을 Initial과 Advanced 2개의 구간으로 나누어 운전한 결과, 각 구간의 NH₄⁺ 제거효율은 각각 58~86%, 94~99%였다. NH₄⁺ 대비 NO₂^- 비율이 증가함에 따라 공정의 안정성이 확보되고, NH₄⁺ 및 총질소(TN) 제거효율이 증가하는 경향이 나타났다. 본 연구의 결과는 수처리공정에서의 안정적인 ANAMMOX 공정 적용을 유도하고, ANAMMOX 공정의 성능개선을 도모하는 연구의 기초로 활용될 수 있다.

This study investigated the characteristics of verbal interactions of various small groups based on previous achievement in paired think-aloud problem solving. Two classes of a high school were assigned to the homogeneous and heterogeneous groups, and taught on chemistry. Students from homogeneous groups (high${\cdot}$high, mid？id) and heterogeneous groups (high${\cdot}$mid, high${\cdot}$low) were selected, and their algorithmic problem solving on chemical equation and stoichiometry were audio/video taped. In high${\cdot}$high group, solver's 'require agreement' and listener 'agree' were frequently exhibited. On the other hands, listener's 'point out' and solver's 'modify' were frequently exhibited in mid${\cdot}$mid group, which was also observed in the heterogeneous groups (high${\cdot}$mid, high${\cdot}$low). Many verbal interactions were analyzed to be in symmetrical type. In this type, 'require agreement-agree' of high${\cdot}$high group was the most frequent. 'problem solving-agree' of high${\cdot}$high group was the most frequent in the solver-dominant type, while 'point out-modify' of high${\cdot}$low group in the listener-dominant type. The verbal behaviors related to the solving stage were frequently observed, but there were few related to the reviewing stage.

We synthesized and investigated $La_{0.75}Sr_{0.25}FeO_3$ by Glycine Nitrate Process(GNP) method used as cathode materials for SOFC(solid oxide fuel cell). Optimized amount of glycine is 3.17 mol. ICP elemental composition analysis indicated that the stoichiometry of the synthesized powders have nearly nominal values. SEM images and XRD patterns reveal that the synthesized powder has uniform size distribution and high degree of crystallinity. The sample powders were isostatically pressed to form a pellet. The green body was sintered at $1200^{\circ}C$ and the relative density of the sintered specimens were measured by Archimedes mettled. We measured electrochemical performance of LSF by AC impedance spectroscopy. Resistance of LSF shows lower value than that of LSM throughout all temperature region. The anode-supported solid oxide fuel cell showed a performance of $342mW/cm^2(0.7V,\;488mA/cm^2)$ at $750^{\circ}C$. The electrochemical characteristics of the single cell were examined by at impedance method.

In order to grow $Bi_4Ge_3O_{12}$ crystals by the Czochralski method equipped with the auto-diameter control system, we used the resistance heater of our own design. We measure the temperature gradients under-arious thermal configurations. The relation between the critical rotation rate corresponding to the flat interface and the temperature gadient was investigated, and the importance of the axial temperature gradient was pointed out. The results from this work were compared with those obtained by other authors when RF heating was used. The optimal conditions for the crystal growth were determined as follows; under $O_2$ atmosphere with the pulling rate fixed at 2 mm/hr, rotation rate changed from 30 to 23 rpm as the crystal growth proceeded, radial and axial temperature gradients were 50 and $40^{\circ}C$/cm near melts respectively, and the composition was chemically stoichiometric.

Epitaxial $L1_0$ FePd (001) thin films were successfully manufactured by sputtering deposition method. The structure and magnetic properties of FePd thin films were characterized as a function of Fe compositions. It was found that the long-range ordering parameter had a maximum for the stoichiometric composition, whereas the magnetic anisotropy had a maximum as the Fe content is decreased to slightly above the stoichiometric composition. This indicates that the stoichiometry is directly contributed to the chemical ordering and the magnetic anisotropy. These results imply that nonstoichiometric FePd compositions, with a slight excess of Pd, may in fact be preferred for applications that require high magnetic anisotropy.

The optimum fermentation conditions of Propionibacterium acidipropionici were determined for the maximum production of organic acids. Three strains of P. acidipropionici, ATCC 25562, 4875, 4965 were selected to test the productivity of organic acids in the batch fermentation. Nutrients and environmental conditions on cell growth were defined by series of experiments, and the optimum amounts of peptone, yeast extract were determined to be $1.5\%$ (w/v), $0.75\%$ (w/v), respectively. The yields and productivity were highest at pH 6 among the ranges of $5.0{\sim}7.5$, and ATCC 4965 was determined to be the best strain compared to the others by getting total productivity of 0.29 g total acids/L/h. Approximately $1.60{\sim}2.34$ moles of propionic acid and $0.74{\sim}1.05$ moles of acetic acid were produced from 1.5 moles of glucose.

KNN계 세라믹스는 $400^{\circ}C$ 이상의 높은 큐리온도와 압전특성을 가져 Pb대체용 소재로 각광을 받고 있고 많은 연구들이 진행중이다. 하지만 potassium의 수분과의 반응성이 강하고 녹는점이 낮아 소결시 K2O의 휘발로 인해 화학양론적인 정확도를 맞추기가 어려운 단점을 가지고 있다. 이러한 단점을 보완하기 위하여 Hot pressing, Hot forging, SPS등 여러 가지 방법을 이용한 연구가 보고되었다. 본 연구에서는 낮은 소결밀도를 향상시키기 위하여 성형압과 성형방법을 달리하여 성형밀도에 따른 소결 밀도와 압전 특성 변화에 대하여 관찰하였다. 넓은 범위의 성형밀도를 얻기 위하여 낮은 성형압을 가할 수 있는 기계적으로 작동하는 press와 높은 성형밀도를 가할 수 있는 유압식 press를 사용하였고, 양산성을 고려하여 일반적인 세라믹 제조공정을 이용하였다.
