Desorption reaction characteristics of the used activated carbons collected from painting process in Shiwha/Banwal industrial complex were investigated. Thermogravimetric analyzer was used to investigate the desorption characteristics. Activation energies and reaction orders for desorption reaction characteristics of used activated carbons were estimated by employing Friedman method and Freeman-Carroll method. In the used activated carbons collected from painting process, it was found that the activation energies were 20.6~43.2 kJ/mol in Friedman method and 12.3~26.5 kJ/mol in Freeman-carroll method, and reaction orders were 0.1~1.7.

This study investigated and discussed the drying characteristics of municipal wood wastes (wood, particle board, medium density fiber-board(MDF)) in the $N_2$ environment with an isothermal thermogravimetric analyzer. The drying rate could be expressed by a first order reaction model on remaining fraction of moisture. The activation energy ranged from 12.72 kJ/g mol to 18.31 kJ/g mol and the frequency factor from 0.2155 1/s to 1.249 1/s.

Devolatilization characteristics of municipal wood waste were measured by using an isothermal thermogravimetric analyzer(TGA) and discussed. Volatile matter was mainly released at temperatures between $250^{\circ}C$ and $350^{\circ}C$. The volatile content increased with an increase of temperature but levelled off at temperatures ${\geq}527^{\circ}C$. The rate of devolatilization could be expressed by a shrinking particle model which was ruled by the reaction rate. The activation energy ranged from 13.1 to 18.5 kJ/g mol.

Generally, a reduced chemical mechanism of n-heptane is used as chemical fuel of a 3-D diesel engine simulation because diesel fuel consists of hundreds of chemical components and various chemical classes so that it is very complex and large to use for the calculation. However, the importance of fuel in a 3-D simulation increases because detailed fuel characteristics are the key factor in the recent engine research such as homogeneous charged compression ignition engine. In this study, normal paraffin, iso paraffin and aromatics were selected to represent diesel characteristics and n-dodecane was used as a representative normal paraffin to describe the heavy molecular weight of diesel oil (C10~C20). Reduced kinetics of iso-octane and toluene which are representative species of iso paraffin and aromatics respectively were developed in the previous study. Some species were selected based on the sensitivity analysis and a mechanism was developed based on the general oxidation scheme. The ignition delay times, maximum pressure and temperature of the new reduced n-dodecane chemical mechanisms were well matched to the detailed mechanism data.

Dimethylaluminum isopropoxide (DMAI, $(CH_3)_2AlO^iPr$) as a single precursor, which contains one aluminum and one oxygen atom, has been adopted to deposit non-stoichiometric aluminum oxide ($AlO_x$) films by low pressure metal organic chemical vapor deposition without an additional oxygen source. The atomic concentration of Al and O in the deposited $AlO_x$ film was measured to be Al:O = ~1:1.1 and any serious interfacial oxide layer between the film and Si substrate was not observed. Gaseous by-products monitored by quadruple mass spectrometry show that ${\beta}$-hydrogen elimination mechanism is mainly contributed to the $AlO_x$ CVD process of DMAI precursor. The current-voltage characteristics of the $AlO_x$ film in Au/$AlO_x$/Ir metalinsulator-metal (MIM) capacitor structure show high ON/OFF ratio larger than ${\sim}10^6$ with SET and RESET voltages of 2.7 and 0.8 V, respectively. Impedance spectra indicate that the switching and memory phenomena are based on the bulk-based origins, presumably the formation and rupture of filaments.

Background: The constant consumption of chemical products owing to expanding industrialization has led to an increase in public interest in chemical substances. As the production and disposal processes for these chemical products cause environmental problems, regional information on the hazard level of chemical substances is required considering their effects on humans and in order to ensure environmental safety. Objectives: This study aimed to identify hazard contribution and spatiotemporal characteristics by region and chemical by calculating a hazard-based result score using pollutant release and transfer register (PRTR) data. Methods: This study calculated the chemical discharge and hazard-based result score from the Risk-Screening Environmental Indicators (RSEI) model, analyzed their spatiotemporal patterns, and identified hotspot areas where chemical discharges and high hazard-based scores were concentrated. The amount of chemical discharge and hazard-based risk scores for 250 cities and counties across South Korea were calculated using PRTR data from 2011 to 2018. Results: The chemical discharge (high densities in Incheon, Daegu, and Busan) and hazard-based result scores (high densities in Incheon, Chungcheongnam-do, and some areas of Gyeongsangnam-do Province) showed varying spatial patterns. The chemical discharge (A, B) and hazard-based result score (C, D) hotspots were identified. Additionally, identification of the hazard-based result scores revealed differences in the type of chemicals contributing to the discharge. Ethylbenzene accounted for ≥80% of the discharged chemicals in the discharge hotspots, while chromium accounted for >90% of the discharged chemicals in the hazard-based result score hotspots. Conclusions: The RSEI hazard-based result score is a quantitative indicator that considers the degree of impact on human health as a toxicity-weighted value. It can be used for the management of industries discharging chemical substances as well as local environmental health management.
