소수 station의 수소분리정제를 위한 compact형 PSA 공정을 연구하였다. 기존 PSA 공정의 흡착탑이 차지하는 시스템의 공간을 줄이기 위하여 하나의 흡착탑 안에 다른 흡착탑을 넣어 흡착탑이 차지하는 공간을 최소화하였으며, 흡착탑 간의 열교환이 효과적으로 일어나도록 설계하였다. 수소 혼합물에 대한 활성탄으로 충진된 dual bed에서의 수소 혼합물에 대한 흡/탈착 동특성 실험을 실시하였으며, 시간에 따른 농도와 온도의 변화를 측정하였다. 수소 혼합물로는 $H_2/CO/CH_4/CO_2$ (69:2:3:26 vol.%) 를 사용하였으며, 흡착유량은 7LPM, 흡착압력은 9atm 조건에서 운전하였다. Inner bed와 outer bed의 성능은 각각의 열전달 특성의 차이로 인하여 다르게 나타났으나, 단일탑의 동특성보다는 우수한 성능을 보이고 있었다. 따라서 개발된 dual bed는 적은 부지를 차지하면서도, 보다 우수한 수소 분리 성능을 보일 수 있는 PSA 공정에 응용될 수 있음을 확인하였다.

Bioprocessing technologies utilizing 'biorecognition' between a solid matrix and a protein is being widely experimented as a means to replacing the conventional, solution-based technology. Frequently the matrices are chromatographic resins with specific functional groups exposed outside. Since the reactions of and interactions with the proteins occur as they are attached to the solid matrix, this 'solid-phase' processing has distinct advantages over the solution-phase technology. Solid-phase refolding of inclusion body proteins uses ion exchange resins to adsorb denaturant-dissolved inclusion body. As the denaturant is slowly removed from the micromoiety around the protein, it is refolded into a native, three-dimensional structure. Once the refolding is complete, the folded protein can be eluted by a conventional elution technique such as the salt-gradient. This concept was successfully extended to 'EBA (expanded bed adsorption)-mediated refolding,' in which the denaturant-dissolved inclusion body in whole cell homogenate is adsorbed to a Streamline resin while cell debris and other impurity proteins are removed by the EBA action. The adsorbed protein follows the same refolding steps. This solid-phase refolding process shows the potential to improve the refolding yield, reduce the number of processing steps and the processing volume and time, and thus improve the overall process economics significantly. In this paper, the experimental results of the solid-phase refolding technology applied to several biopharmaceutical proteins of various types are presented.

Adsorption process for the removal of acetylene, especially 2-butyne, from isoprene was studied with zeolite as an adsorbent. In this work, zeolite 5A was selected to investigate the effects of various regeneration conditions by repeated adsorption experiments. The effect of regeneration temperature and desorption pressure was investigated to identity the optimum regeneration conditions. Repeated adsorption and desorption experiments were carried out for 10 cycles to confirm the efficiency of regeneration process under temperature of 423 K and desorption time of 16 h.

This study provides an attempt to evaluate sanding wastes, generated from a chemical company as a reused adsorbent. Organic impurities in the raw sanding wastes were removed by calcination at $550^{\circ}C$. Aluminum was a major inorganic composition in the raw sanding wastes and increased from 29.09% to 52.73% after calcination. Dissolved concentrations of heavy metals from the calcined sample were below 0.3 mg/L in a stability test at pH 2. From the pH-edge adsorption experiments with the calcined sanding wastes, As (V) was found to follow an anionic-type adsorption. Adsorption isotherm obtained with variation of the dosage of the calcined sanding wastes was better described by Freundlich equation than Langmuir one. Freundlich constants of K and 1/n were 4.244 and 0.316, respectively. The As (V) adsorption capacity of calcined sanding wastes estimated from Langmuir isotherm was 13.25 mg/g. From this study, the calcined sample was identified as a good reusable adsorbent in the view point of stability and adsorption capacity on As (V).

질산염(NO$_3$)은 음전하를 띠고 있기 때문에 지하에서 제거되기 어려운 물질 중 하나이다. 특히, 매립지로부터 침출수로 유출될 경우 통제하기가 곤란하다. 본 연구에서는 제철폐기물로서 다량 발생하는 제강슬러지와 제강슬래그를 매립지 복토/차수재로 이용시 NO$_3$흡착 제거 가능성을 알아보기 위해 온도, pH, 초기농도를 변화시키는 회분식방법의 실험을 실시하였다. 온도와 PH는 낮을 때. 초기농도는 높을 때 높은 흡착제거 효율을 나타내었다.

This research programme include investigation of the adsorption behavior of heavy metals and VOCs by Pyrolysis char for using landfill cover material. The volatile potions in the sludge gasified during the pyrolysis period and gave birth to porosity throughout the matrix. The result of the ad/desorption experiment of nitrogen to find out the formation of some pore by the gasification of the volatile matter, we can certify that the pyrolysis char($14.56\;m^2/g$) has increased twice more than the organic wasted sludge($6.68\;m^2/g$) in specific surface area. The pyrolysis char has the adsorption characteristic of medium type of Type II and V in BDDT classification, and showed a little micro pore. In the adsorption experiment of ethylbenzene and toluene, as a result of applying the Freundlich adsorption isotherms, the pyrolysis char was higher in the adsorptivity of ethylbenzene and toluene than the granite and the organic wasted sludge. The results of the heavy metal adsorption test for the char indicated that it had some ability of adsorption. It is suggest that pyrolysis char has some advantages for utilizing as landfill covers because the pyrolysis char can adsorb/absorb hazardous substances from the landfill sites and inhibit the ground water and soil contamination.

This study was conducted to estimate peeling and vapor adsorption properties made with fabric glass fiber reinforced laminated timber according to our earlier report(Jung et al., 2002). In adsorption peeling test, three all types solid wood were not appeared the peeling. However, solid wood appeared to the peeling in boiling peeling test except for control wood. Vapor adsorption test was performed at 40℃, 90% relative humidity for 48 hours. Cross sections were not different all solid wood. Radial section and tangential section with glass fiber were delayed vapor adsorption compared to control wood. In anisotropy of vapor adsorption, solid wood with glass fiber were small values.

The aim of the present study is to explore the possibility of utilizing loess and fly ash as well as activated carbon for the adsorptive removal of PCBs in transformer oil. Here, we investigated the effect of various factors such as temperature (5, 25, 55), contact time (30 min-3 day) and adsorbent does (1, 2.5, 5, 10 g) in detail. It was found that PCBs adsorption rate from transformer oil by activated carbon is more favored than loess at the equilibrium time of 60 minutes. The equilibrium data for both activated carbon and loess is fitted well to the Freundlich isotherm model. The rate constant and activation energy of PCBs adsorption in transformer oil on each adsorbent was analyzed by fitting a kinetic model at 5, 25 and $55^{\circ}C$. From the thermodynamic parameters, the PCBs adsorption process for transformer oil/activated carbon and loess system is spontaneous and endothermic in nature.
