  • $TiO_2$ coating ceramic tile for self-cleaning purpose was prepared by the precipitant dropping method using $TiCl_4$ as a precursor. $TiO_2$ film was formed on the ceramic tile by spray-coating technique and heat-treated at $500^{\circ}C$ for 1 h. The size and crystalline structure of $TiO_2$ particles were 15.3 nm and anatase phase. The outdoor exposure tests were conducted and the effects of outdoor exposure test conditions, such as exhaust concentration of contamination materials (test places), the UV light intensity (irradiation direction) and coating amounts of $TiO_2$ on the self-cleaning properties were investigated by the brightness measurements. As a results, self-cleaning property of $TiO_2$ coating tile was affected by the coating amount of $TiO_2$ however, not affected by the UV light intensity included in sun's ray (irradiation direction). $TiO_2$ coating ceramic tile can be utilized for exterior finishing materials because of self-cleaning property of $TiO_2$ coating tile.

  • To evaluate the genotoxicities of workers exposed to glue and glue cleaning solution, ambient air monitoring of working place, animal study and human monitoring were carried out. By GC-MS analysis, air samples collected from shoesmaking plant were found to be toluene, xylene, cyclohexane, n-hexane, methyl ethyl ketone, trichloroethylene, butylacetate, isopropyl alcohol. Glue and glue cleaning solution from shoesmaking plant were applicated topically to the CD-1 mice. DNA was isolated from skin 24 hr following the application and analysed for DNA-adducts using the nuclease $P_1$version of $^{32}$P-postlabelling assay. RAL (Relative Adduct Labelling, adducts$10^8$ nucleotides) was significantly increased in a dose-dependent manner in the glue cleaning solution treated mice skin. Peripheral blood DNA-adducts of workers exposed to glue and glue cleaning solution were also analysed by the same method, but there were not significant differences in the peripheral blood DNA-adducts level between exposed and control workers. In addition, glue cleaning solution from shoes factory was evaluated for mutagenicity in the Salmonella plate incorporation assay using strains TA 100 and TA 1535 in the presence and absence of Arochlor 1254-induced rat liver S$_{9}$. There was evident mutagenicity for cleaning solution in TA 100 regardless of $S_9$, but TA 1535 showed positive only in the absence of $S_9$when predicted by Stead model of mutagenicity prediction (p=0.0000). The urine concentrates from workers and controls were also assayed for mutagenicity towards strain TA 100 of Salmonella typhimurium in the presence of $S_9$ using Kado's microsuspension assay, but their mutagenic activities were not found to be significant. These data suggest that shoesmaking workers are exposed to genotoxic compounds and need to be monitored by testing the mutagenicity of human urines. However, $^{32}$P-postlabelling application requires further validation for the routine monitoring of human exposure.osure.

  • This paper proposes a method that regulate a chlorine density to real time using RTOS. The most of a cleaning bed make use of the flux method to input chlorine. But, This method is difficult to control of chlorine's amount because Amount used of water is difference in each time or according to season. In this paper, we have designed a two method to flux and remain chlorine. Each task is programmed to cope with changeable external environment. The efficiency of the proposed system is shown by comparison results for performance of the proposal system with cleaning bed using a flux method.

  • Cleaning of foreign matter and corrosion products on surface among conservation treatment of iron artifacts is an important part for looking up a original form. The sand blaster is the most popular equipment when it removes the foreign matter and corrosion products on iron artifacts surface. Current foreign matter and corrosion products equipment, which mostly uses, is sand blaster. Glass dust which sprayed from sand blaster is harmful and causing environmental pollution. In order to solve these problems, we investigated the $CO_2$ snow cleaning that use a eco-friendly equipment to apply for cleaning foreign matter and corrosion products on surface of iron artifacts. It examined by using sand blaster and $CO_2$ snow cleaning to aged steel coupon and iron artifacts. In case of aged steel coupon, the result showed that the sand blaster and $CO_2$ snow cleaning methods were similar to the degrees of cleaning foreign matter and corrosion products, through surface roughness, color measurement and SEM. $CO_2$ snow cleaning applied to aged steel coupons weren't worn out the surface in comparison with sand blaster by SEM. When applied to the iron artifacts, power nozzle of the $CO_2$ snow cleaning was an excellent cleaning effect that surface wern't worn out in comparison with sand blaster. And, it showed that internal structure change of metal was no found before and after cleaning by X-ray radiography. Consequently, we confirmed that cleaning of the sand blaster and power nozzle of $CO_2$ snow cleaning were similar to the effect. But, it's very careful to use this method because of high outlet pressure of power nozzle for applying to the iron artifacts. As a result of experiments, it could be found that the cleaning methods should be selected depending on internal state of the artifacts.

  • The cleaning robot is popularly used as a home appliance. The state-of-the-art cleaning robot can clean more efficiently by using information gathered from its sensor, which is difficult for low-price cleaning robots due to limitation in this aspect. In this paper, we suggested a method for the moving pattern of cleaning robot based on grammatical evolution. Optimized program is generated by using moving pattern grammar, which is defined by Backus-Naur form. In addition, conditional probability is used between each of the grammar elements during the program creation process. The proposed method is evaluated by robot simulation in order to verify its performance and further compare it with existing algorithms. The experiment results showed that the proposed method is better than the compared algorithms.

  • Flash Memory differs from the hard disk, because it cannot be overwritten. Most of the flash memory file systems use not-in-place update mechanisms for the update. Flash memory file systems execute sometimes block cleaning process in order to make writable space while performing not-in-place update process. Block cleaning process collects the invalid pages and convert them into the free pages. Block cleaning process is a factor that affects directly on the performance of the flash memory. Thus this paper suggests the efficient page allocation method, which reduces block cleaning cost by minimizing the numbers of block that has valid and invalid pages at a time. The result of the simulation shows an increase in efficiency by reducing more block cleaning costs than the original YAFFS.
