An optimal control technique designed for simultaneous tracking and quality control for batch processes. The proposed technique is designed by transforming quadratic-criterion based iterative learning control(Q-ILC) into linear quadratic control problem. For real-time quality inferential control, the quality is modeled by linear combination of control input around target qualify and then the relationship between quality and control input can be transformed into time-varying linear state space model. With this state space model, the real-time quality inferential control can be incorporated to LQ control Problem. As a consequence, both the quality variable as well as other controlled variables can progressively reduce their control error as the batch number increases while rejecting real-time disturbances, and finally reach the best achievable states dictated by a quadratic criterion even in case that there is significant model error Also the computational burden is much reduced since the most computation is calculated in off-line. The Proposed control technique is applied to a semi-batch reactor model where series-parallelreactions take place.

The quality control is a fundamental procedure for the standardization of herbal medicine to guarantee the consistency of efficacy and safety. For a long time, the quality analysis of herbal medicine has been largely dependent on the routine sensory evaluation, such as taste, smell, color, and shape. However, with the recent development of analytical instruments, various scientific approaches have been introduced in this field. On the basis of the theory that the biological activities of herbal medicine are mainly contributed by its chemical compositions, several types of chemical markers have been suggested for the quality evaluation. In addition to the analytical methods for the specific marker compound(s), including analytical marker and active marker, recently, chemical fingerprinting, a method comparing the chromatographic pattern of the whole chemical components, has been developed and widely accepted as a reliable approach for the quality control of herbal medicine. Moreover, in order to exactly understand the relationship between complex compounds and their holistic biological activities in herbal medicine, unique strategies, such as "BECCs (bioactive equivalent combinatorial components)" and "PhytomicsQC" have been established. In this article, we give an overview of the several categories of chemical markers and the recent research trends for the quality evaluation of herbal medicine.

A state or the arts in Japanese chemical process control is reviewed based on experience in applying advanced process control schemes to several industrial chemical processes. The applications validate model predictive control (MPC), the most popular advanced control scheme in the process control community, as, indeed, a powerful and practical control algorithm. However, at the same time, it is elucidated that MPC can solve only the control algorithm part of the problem and one needs chemical and systems engineering aspects to solve the entire problem. By illustrating several industrial process control problems, the need for chemical engineering aspects as well as the future direction for process control are addressed, especially in light or current attitudes toward product quality.

Background: The chemical characterization of metallic alloys and oxides is conventionally carried out by wet chemical analytical methods and/or instrumental methods. Instrumental neutron activation analysis (INAA) is capable of analyzing samples nondestructively. As a part of a chemical quality control exercise, Zircaloys 2 and 4, nimonic alloy, and zirconium oxide samples were analyzed by two INAA methods. The samples of alloys and oxides were also analyzed by inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectroscopy (ICP-OES) and direct current Arc OES methods, respectively, for quality assurance purposes. The samples are important in various fields including nuclear technology. Methods: Samples were neutron irradiated using nuclear reactors, and the radioactive assay was carried out using high-resolution gamma-ray spectrometry. Major to trace mass fractions were determined using both relative and internal monostandard (IM) NAA methods as well as OES methods. Results: In the case of alloys, compositional analyses as well as concentrations of some trace elements were determined, whereas in the case of zirconium oxides, six trace elements were determined. For method validation, British Chemical Standard (BCS)-certified reference material 310/1 (a nimonic alloy) was analyzed using both relative INAA and IM-NAA methods. Conclusion: The results showed that IM-NAA and relative INAA methods can be used for nondestructive chemical quality control of alloys and oxide samples.

A field experiment was carried out to determine the effects of mechanical and chemical drying agents at mowing on the field drying rate and hay quality of orchardgrass dominant pasture plants. The mower conditioner /chemical drying agent ($K_2CO_3$ 2% conditioning, $K_2CO_3$ 2% + conditioning and control) were treated at different harvest stages (late boot, heading and bloom stage) for hastening hay manufacture in 1996. After field dry, four square bales were made by hay baler, and the visual estimation and nutritive value of hay were evaluated after storing two months. The field drying rate of pasture plants was higher with delayed stage of harvest, and mechanical and mechanical + chemical, but chemical alone was very low. In mower conditioning, the duration of field dry was shortened by 0.5 to 1 day compared with $K_2CO_3$ and 1.5 to 2 days compared with control. The dry matter loss of hay was reduced by late harvest and mechanical, and mechanical + chemical, but the score by chemical alone was very low. The visual score (leafiness, green color, odor and softness) of hay after storage was high in mechanical and mechanical + chemical, but the score by chemical alone was very low. Nutritive value (ADF, NDF, digestibility, and relative feed value) of hay was also high with treatment of mechanical and mechanical + chemical, but the quality by chemical alone was similar compared with control. The quality of hay was very low when harvested at bloom stage. In conclusion, mower conditioning can enhance the field drying rate of orchardgrass dominant pasture plants, however the drying efficiency of chemical drying agent was very low. Harvesting at early heading to heading stage was recommened for manufacture of high quality hay.

고급 홍삼의 생산 수율을 증가시키는 제어 방법에 관한 실험을 수행하였다. 수삼에서 홍삼을 만드는 과정 중 수증기로 수삼을 찌는 증삼 공정에서 동체균열, 내공, 내백 등이 발생하는데 이는 홍삼의 품질을 저하시키는 원인이 된다. 고급 홍삼의 수율을 증가시키기 위해서는 이런 불량 요인을 최소화하는 방법이 필요하다. 최근까지 대부분의 증삼 공정의 제어는 증삼 과정의 필수 인자인 온도만을 조절하거나 온도와 압력을 동시에 조절하여 제어하는 방법이 연구되었다. 그러나 이는 불량 요인을 최소화하는 목적에 적합하지 못한 것으로 보인다. 이와 달리, 본 연구에서는 기존의 홍삼 제조 방식을 토대로 $96{\sim}99^{\circ}C$의 온도를 유지하면서 수삼의 무게 제어를 통하여 불량 요인을 최소화하는 제어 방법을 제시한다. 무게 제어를 적용한 실험 결과 증삼 과정 후 수삼의 동체균열의 불량요인이 줄어드는 것을 확인할 수 있었다.

Recently, it is very necessary the development of the manufacturing techniques for high strength concrete(HSC) for the large-scale size and good quality of civil structure. But, the manufacture and quality control of HSC of which shrinkage, heat of hydration and workability at construction filed are considered, is very difficult due to its low water-cement ratio and high quantity of unit cement content. In the present study, we tried to know and assess the influences of chemical and physical properties of cement on the material properties of HSC. We analyzed basic properties of 4 kinds of cement whose chemical and physical properties are different each other through various tests such as chemical analysis and mortal test. Also, we performed the assessment of the material properties of HSC for each dement by the test for the conditions of same mix design and similar compressive strength. From the results in the study, the assessment of the important quality factors of cement influencing the properties of HSC may be utilized to quality control of applied cement to manufacture the HSC of high quality.

본 연구의 목적은 방사성 의약품의 정도관리 실험 중 방사선 및 의약품측면에서의 방사핵종 순도, 화학적 순도, 방사화학적 순도의 세 가지로 진행하였다. 또한 방사성 의약품을 표지 후 시간에 따른 표지 효율을 관찰함으로써 실제 임상에서 표지 후 어느 정도의 시간이 경과해도 사용이 가능한지 실험해 보았다. 그 결과 현재 임상에서 사용되고 있는 방사성의약품의 방사성핵종 순도와 화학적 순도는 양호한 편이었으나, 방사화학적 순도는 표지방법과 표지 시간에 따라 약간의 차이를 띄고 있었다. 방사성 의약품은 시술자의 손을 거쳐 표지되기 때문에 표지과정에 주의를 하여 정도관리에 임한다면 보다 효율적인 검사가 가능할 것으로 보여 진다.
