In this work, high pressure binary phase equilibria data of carbon dioxide and isopropyl alcohol were obtained by experiment. A static type experimental apparatus was made to measure temperature, pressure and phase equilibria composition. The experimental apparatus was tested by comparing the measured phase equilibria data of the carbon dioxide-isopropyl alcohol system at $80^{\circ}C$ with those of Rodosz. The binary phase behavior data of carbon dioxide-isopropyl alcohol system were measured in range of 41 to 133 bar and at temperatures of 40, 60, 80, 100 and $120^{\circ}C$. The solubility of isopropyl alcohol increases as the temperatures increases at constant pressure. Also, these carbon dioxide-alcohol solute system have critical-mixture curves that exhibit maxima in pressure at temperatures between the critical temperatures of carbon dioxide and isopropyl alcohol. The experimental data obtained in this study were modeled using the statistical associating fluid theory(SAFT) equation of state. A good fit of the data was obtained with SAFT using two adjustable parameters for the carbon dioxide-isopropyl alcohol system.

The present study deals with removal of $CO_2$ using various mesoporous materials impregnated with MEA (monoethanolamine). The mesoporous materials such as MCM-41, MCM-48 and SBA-15 were synthesised and then impregnated with 30, 50 and 70 wt% of MEA, respectively. XRD, FT-IR and SEM were used to evaluate the characterization of those. From the adsorption/desorption experiments for various materials, the adsorption capacity of these materials were found in the order of MCM-41> MCM-48> SBA-15. MCM-41 impregnated with 50 wt% of MEA showed the maximum adsorption capacity of $57.1mg-CO_2/gr-sorbent$ at $40^{\circ}C$. It is nearly 8 times higher than MCM-41 without impregnation of MEA. In the multiple cycle test of 20 times, MCM-41 impregnated with 50 wt% of MEA showed a constant adsorption capacity.

Adsorption experiment of carbon dioxide was performed on MCM41 silica impregnated with two kinds of EDA(ethylenediamine) and MEA(monoethanolamine). The prepared adsorbents were characterized by BET surface area, X-ray diffraction and FT-IR. The $CO_2$ capture study was investigated in a U type packed column with GC/TCD. The results of XRD for MCM-41 and amine-impregnated MCM41 showed typical the hexagonal pore system. BET results showed the MCM 41 impregnated amine to have a surface area of 141 $m^2/g$ to 595 $m^2/g$ and FT-IR revealed a N-H functional group at about 1400$cm^{-1}$ to 1600$cm^{-1}$. The $CO_2$ adsorption capacity on EDA and MEA was as follow: MCM41-EDA30 > MCM41 -EDA40 >MCM41-EDA20 >MCM-EDA10 and MCM41-MEA40 >MCM41-MEA30 > MCM41-MEA20> MCM41-MEA10. The MCM41-EDA30 showed the highest adsorption capacity due to physical adsorption and chemical adsorption by amino-group content. The results suggest that mesoporous media with EDA is effective adsorbent for $CO_2$ capture from flue gases.

The present study was performed to examine the high temperature adaptability with CO₂ treatment for tomato under the condition of greenhouse cultivation during summer season. The plants with the CO₂ concentration of 1000 ppm recorded higher scores in Fm/Fo and Fv/Fm but lower score in Fo than others through the measurement of chlorophyll fluorescence, which implicated that the plants with the CO₂ concentration of 1000 ppm had more adaptability to high temperature than the others. At the condition of the same air temperature as 30℃ and 40℃, the photosynthetic rate was increased with the increase of CO₂ concentration. When in the high air temperature state of 40℃, although the photosynthic rate was low in comparison with 30℃, its value was about 18.5umolm^-2s^-1 in case of 1000ppm. The higher concentration of CO₂ made the more activated anti-oxidation enzyme (superoxide dismutase and peroxidase) for the both cultivars as 'momotaro' and 'minichal'. The cultivar of 'minichal' performed the high temperature limit as 41℃ at the CO₂ condition of 500 ppm and 43℃ at the CO₂ condition of 1000 ppm through the estimation on the variation of chlorophyll fluorescence Fo by CO₂ concentrations.

Supercritical carbon dioxide (_SCO2) extraction was applied for the defatting of mealworm to prepare defatted powder (DP) and protein isolate (PI) and compare the process to press and hexane extraction, with respect to DP and PI physicochemical properties. _SCO2 DP was obtained by extracting 34.40% oil at 41.37 MPa, 40℃ for 180 min, and the product contained 71.66% crude protein, which is similar to that of hexane DP and higher than that of press DP. In using alkali protein extraction to prepare PI from DP, _SCO2 was as effective as hexane and better than press. _SCO2 produced brighter DP and PI than press, but not as much as hexane. Protein solubility was similar in all DP, with minimum values at pH 5. The highest water adsorption capacity was noticeable for _SCO2 PI, and _SCO2 DP showed an oil adsorption capacity comparable to that of hexane DP. _SCO2 DP and PI had better foaming capacity than press DP and PI and showed superior emulsion activity compared to others.

Factors affecting the supercritical carbon dioxide extraction of camptothecin(CPT) and 10-hydroxycamptothecin(HCPT) from the dried powder of Cmptotheca acuminata were studied. Only a few amount of CPT and HCPT was extracted with pure supercritical carbon dioxide. Methanol and ethanol were efficient modifiers to extract CPT and HCPT. At $40^{\circ}C$, 250 bar, 1 mL/min flow rate, 41% of CPT and 35% of HCPT were extracted with supercritical carbon dioxide modified with 16% of methanol. The diffusion effect of HCPT on extraction efficiency was studied in this solid-fluid system. Round matrix hot-ball model assumption revealed that the value of D/$r^2$ was 0.0072 $min^{-1}$ which was higher than that of solvent extraction with methanol.

In this study, a blend of 2-amino-2-methyl-1-propanol (AMP) and ammonia (NH$_3$) was used to achieve high absorption rates for carbon dioxide (CO$_2$) as suggested at several literatures. The absorption rates of aqueous AMP and blended AMP+NH$_3$ solutions with CO$_2$ and nitrogen dioxide (NO$_2$) were measured using a stirred-cell reactor at 303 K. The effect of the added NH$_3$ to enhance absorption characteristics of AMP was studied. The performances were evaluated under various operating conditions. The absorption rates increased following the increase of the concentration of NH$_3$. The absorption rate of NH$_3$ blended into 30 wt.% AMP solution with NO$_2$ at 303 K was 12.6$\sim$32.6% higher than that of aqueous AMP solution without NH3. Also, the addition of 3 wt.% NH$_3$ to 30 wt.% AMP increased 48.2$\sim$41.6% values for the reactions with CO$_2$ and NO$_2$ at 303 K. Therefore, it clearly shows that the reaction rate of AMP with CO$_2$ and NO$_2$ can be increased by the addition of NH$_3$.

In this study, the compressive strength development was analyzed at early ages of concrete specimens admixed with non-sintered hwangto to reduce the CO₂ emissions generated during cement production. The W/B of the specimens was set at 0.41, the percentage of non-sintered hwangto admixture was set at three levels of 15, 30, and 45%, and the compressive strength were measured at 1, 3, 7, and 28 days. The results showed that the compressive strength decreases as the percentage of non-sintered hwangto increases, but the strength development rate increases, and the NHTC41-15 test specimen developed a compressive strength close to NC41 at 28 days.

Supercritical fluid(SCF) carbon dioxide was used to extract safflower yellow pigments from Carthamus tinctorius L. In this work, supercritical fluid extractions were performed at various conditions; pressure (2000, 3000, 4000, 5000 psig), temperature $(40,\;50,\;60,\;70,\;80^{\circ}C)$ and co-solvent $(0,\;3,\;6,\;10,\;14\;wt%\;H_2O)$. Total concentrations of safflower yellow pigments extracted were determined by spectrophotometric method. A maximum yield of yellow pigments was obtained at 4000psig, $60^{\circ}C$ and 10% co-solvent. The extraction yield of pigments was also closely related to moisture content of the raw material. Extraction yield of safflower yellow pigments by SCF extraction at optimized conditions was 6% higher than that by solvent extraction. Supercritical carbon dioxide was proved to be suitable for the extraction of safflower yellow pigments from Carthamus tinctorius L.

According to the worldwide interest in controlling $CO_2$ which contributes to green house effect. new techniques of reducing $CO_2$ are under development. We have developed new technique for reducing $CO_2$. In low $CO_2$ concentration. the chemical absorption method is useful. In this study. the kinetics of the reaction between $CO_2$ and the sterically hindered amine solution with piperazine. have been investigated from measurements of the rate of absorption of $CO_2$ in the stirred vessel that has a horizontal liquid-gas interface, in the temperature range $30{\sim}70^{\circ}C$. The experiments were carried out in the range 10.130~20.260 kPa of partial pressure of $CO_2$, and in aqueous $2.0kmol/m^3$ AMP solution with $0{\sim}0.4kmol/m^3$ piperazine The experimental results are as follows: 1) The absorption rate of $CO_2$ into aqueous AMP + piperazine solution is gett ng faster than that of aqueous AMP absorbents with temperature. Because the activation energy of piperazine 57.147 kJ/mol is higher than that of AMP 41.7kJ/mol. therefore the effect of piperazine on absorption rate increases with temperature. 2) Compared with aqueous AMP solution. the absorption rate of $CO_2$ into AMP + piperazine solution increases from 6.33% at $30^{\circ}C$ to 12% at $70^{\circ}C$, so AMP + piperazine solution is thought to be a better than AMP solution, 3) The reaction rate constants of piprazine in aqueous AMP solution with $CO_2$ have been determined as 217.21, 420.46, 707.00 and $3162.167m^3/kmol{\cdot}s$ respectively at 30, 40, 50 and $70^{\circ}C$ but these results are higher than those of Xu which were 186.7. 367.32. 693.01. $2207.65m^3/kmol{\cdot}s$ at 30, 40, 55, $70^{\circ}C$in aqueous MDEA solution. So the regression analysis of the data has led to the following equation In $k_p$ =28.324-6934.7/T.
