Spent activated carbons (SACs) collected from a water treatment plant were regenerated and then adopted as electrochemical material in capacitors. The SACs used in this study were regenerated via two steps, namely thermal and chemical activation. However, during the activation process, the adsorbates were converted into ashes, which caused pore blockage and decreased specific surface area. The regenerated SACs were washed with acid solutions with different levels of acidity (strong: HCl, mild: H₃PO₄, and weak: H₂O₂) to remove the ashes. The regenerated SACs washed with HCl exhibited the highest specific surface area, although their capacitance was not the highest. Conversely, the specific surface area of regenerated SACs washed using H₃PO₄ was slightly lower than that of HCl, but exhibited higher capacitance and electrochemical stability. Although the strong acid removed the generated ashes in the pores efficiently, it could adversely affect their structural stability, which would lead to lower capacitance.

활성탄소섬유(Activated carbon fiber, ACF)의 비표면적을 향상시키는 대표적인 방법은 알칼리금속을 이용한 화학적 활성화(Chemical activation, CA)와 산화제를 이용한 표면처리(Surface treatment, ST)방법이 있다. 알칼리금속을 이용한 CA 공정은 열처리 과정에서 알칼리금속의 화학반응에 의하여 미세기공이 발달되며, ST 공정은 산화제의 산화력에 의하여 표면의 미세기공을 발달시킨다. 본 연구에서는 대표적인 표면개질 방법인 CA 공정의 효과를 증대하기 위하여 전처리로 ST 공정을 수행하였으며, ST 공정 유무에 따라 CA된 ACF의 특성변화를 관찰하였다. ST 및 CA 유무에 따른 ACF 특성을 조사하기 위하여 무게변화, FT-IR, TGA, 원소분석을 수행하였으며, 대표적인 VOC물질인 톨루엔을 이용하여 흡착특성을 평가하였다. 실험결과 초기 raw ACF의 비표면적과 톨루엔 흡착량은 각각 1,483 $m^2/g$, 0.22 $g_{-Tol.}/g_{-ACF}$였으며, CA 처리시 1,998 $m^2/g$, 0.27 $g_{-Tol.}/g_{-ACF}$로 증가하였고, ST된 ACF를 CA 처리한 경우 2,743 $m^2/g$, 0.37 $g_{-Tol.}/g_{-ACF}$로 증가하였다. 본 연구를 통하여 ST 및 CA 결합공정을 통한 ACF의 표면특성을 증가를 확인하였다.

The methodology of Six Sigma originated at Motorola in the early 1980s is nowadays proved to be an effective way in Improving the quality. Many companies find adding Six Sigma to their current business system gives them all or almost all the elements of total quality management(TQM). However most companies where Six Sigma is implemented confront many difficulties in non-manufacturing parts such as transactional and administrative processes. In this paper we discuss distinct aspects of such non-manufacturing process, and investigate activating scheme of Six Sigma in those parts of industry.

In this study, we developed a proto-type RTP equipment by using tungsten halogen lamps. The system has been designed utilizing the result of the numerical analysis of the reactor. In order to analyze the system performance, experiments for activation of implanted atoms and oxidation process were performed. As a result, we obtained 2-3% uniformity in sheet resistance and 2-4% uniformity in oxide thickness, although after a long time process at high temperatures slip lines and warpage of the wafer have been observed.

fac-RuH(NO)(ttp) is fluxional in the range between 180 K and 303 K. The structures involved in this fluxional process are found to be a mixture of two square pyramids and a trigonal bipyramid from the low temperature NMR spectra and the line shape analysis using DNMR 3 program and the activation parameters of this process were determined by using the simulated data. The mechanism of this fluxional process is proposed to be a pathway known as Turnstile Rotation.

In this study, surface characteristics of dental implant fixture with various manufacturing process have been researched using electrochemical methods. The dental implant fixture was selected with 5 steps by cleaning, surface treatment and sterilization with same size and screw structure; the 1st step-machined surface, 2nd step-cleaned by thinner and prosol solution, 3th step-surface treated by RBM (resorbable blasting media) method, 4th step-cleaned and dried, 5th step-sterilized by gamma-ray. The electrochemical behavior of dental implant fixture has been evaluated by using potentiostat (EG&G Co, 2273A) in 0.9% NaCl solution at $36.5{\pm}1^{\circ}C$. The corrosion surface was observed using field-emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM) and energy dispersive x-ray spectroscopy (EDS). The step 5 sample showed the cleaner and rougher surface than step 3 sample. The step 5 sample of implant fixture treated by RBM and gamma sterilization showed the low corrosion current density compared to others. Especially, the step 3 sample of implant fixture treated by RBM was presented the lowest value of corrosion resistance and the highest value of corrosion current density. The step 3 sample showed the low value of polarization resistance compared to other samples. In conclusion, the implant fixture treated with RBM and gamma sterilization has the higher corrosion resistance, and corrosion resistance depends on the step of manufacturing process.

Water damage is one of the five disasters that affect the safety of coal mine production. The erosion of rocks by water is a very important link in the process of water inrush induced by fault activation. Through the observation and experiment of fault filling samples, according to the existing rock classification standards, fault sediments are divided into breccia, dynamic metamorphic schist and mudstone. Similar materials are developed with the characteristics of particle size distribution, cementation strength and water rationality, and then relevant tests and analyses are carried out. The experimental results show that the water-rock interaction mainly reduces the compressive strength, mechanical strength, cohesion and friction Angle of similar materials, and cracks or deformations are easy to occur under uniaxial load, which may be an important process of water inrush induced by fault activation. Mechanical experiment of similar material specimen can not only save time and cost of large scale experiment, but also master the direction and method of the experiment. The research provides a new idea for the failure process of rock structure in fault activation water inrush.

Activated carbons (ACs) have been used as electrode materials of electric double-layer capacitors (EDLC) due to their high specific surface areas (SSA), stability, and ecological advantages. In order to make high-energy-density ACs for EDLC, petroleum pitch (PP) pre-carbonized at $500-1000^{\circ}C$ in $N_2$ gas for 1 h was used as the electrode material of the EDLC after KOH activation. As the pre-carbonization temperature increased, the SSA, pore volume and gravimetric capacitance tended to decrease, but the crystallinity and electrode density tended to increase, showing a maximum volumetric capacitance at a medium carbonization temperature. Therefore, it was possible to control the crystalline structure, SSA, and pore structure of AC by changing the pre-carbonization temperature. Because the electrode density increased with increasing of the pre-carbonization temperature, the highest volumetric capacitance of 28.4 F/cc was obtained from the PP pre-carbonized at $700^{\circ}C$, exhibiting a value over 150% of that of a commercial AC (MSP-20) for EDLC. Electrochemical activation was observed from the electrodes of PP as they were pre-carbonized at high temperatures above $700^{\circ}C$ and then activated by KOH. This process was found to have a significant effect on the specific capacitance and it was demonstrated that the higher charging voltage of EDLC was, the greater the electrochemical activation effect was.
