The catalytic hydroxylation of several cycloalkanes in dichloromethane have been investigated using In(Ⅲ)-, Tl(Ⅲ)-porphyrin complexes as a catalyst and NaClO, $NaClO_{2}$, $H_{2}O_{2}$ as a terminal oxidant. Porphyrins were TPP and ($F_{20}$)TPP (TPP = tetraphenylporphyrin) and substrates were cyclopentane, cyclohexane, cycloheptane and cyclooctane. The substrate conversion yield was discussed according to the substituent effect and hinderance effect of metalloporphyrin and the radius effect of non-redox metal ion. The conversion yield of cycloalkane followed the order of $ C_{5} $ < $ C_{6}$ < $ C_{7}$ = $ C_{8}$. In this experimental condition $NaClO_2$ was rather efficient terminal oxidant than NaClO and $H_{2}O_{2}$.

The purpose of the research is to develop the high performance solar chemical reactor for producing hydrogen using steam reforming reaction of methane. A specific shape chemical reactor is suggested: spiral type reactor. The reactor is installed on the dish-type solar thermal system of Inha University. The temperatures, $CH_4$ conversion rates are measured. At specific condition, $CH_4$ conversion rates of the spiral type reactor are about 92%. The spiral type reactor gives reasonably good performance without any problems caused by highly concentrated solar radiation.

Reduction of 3-chloro-4-fluoropropiophenone by Saccharomyces cerevisiae as a whole cell biocatalyst was optimized. Effects of glucose, S. cerevisiae and 3-chloro-4-fluoropropiophenone concentrations on conversion of reduction reaction was investigated. Optimum concentrations of glucose, S. cerevisiae and 3-chloro-4-fluoropropiophenone were 100, 40 and 20 g/L, respectively. At optimum condition, 100% of conversion was achieved in 12 hours of reaction.

This paper presents a proper condition to achieve high conversion efficiency using PC1D simulator on sri-crystalline Si solar cells. Various efficiency influencing parameters such as rear surface recombination velocity and minority carrier diffusion length in the base region, front surface recombination velocity, junction depth and doping concentration in the Emitter layer, BSF thickness and doping concentration were investigated. Optimized cell parameters were given as rear surface recombination of 1000 cm/s, minority carrier diffusion length in the base region 200 $\mu\textrm{m}$, front surface recombination velocity 100 cm/s, sheet resistivity of emitter layer 100 Ω/$\square$, BSF thickness 5 $\mu\textrm{m}$, doping concentration 5${\times}$10$\^$19/ cm$\^$-3/. Among the investigated variables, we learn that a diffusion length of base layer acts as a key factor to achieve conversion efficiency higher than 19 %.

Neutron dose assessment in criticality accidents using Whole Body Counter (WBC) was proved to be an effective method as rapid neutron dose estimation at the JCO criticality accident in Tokai-mura. The 1.36MeV gamma-ray of $^{24}Na$ in a body can be detected easily by a germanium detector. The Minimum Detectable Activity (MDA) of $^{24}Na$ is approximately 50Bq for 10miniute measurement by the germanium-type whole body counter at JNC Tokai Works. Neutron energy spectra at the typical shielding conditions in criticality accidents were calculated and the conversion factor, whole body activity-to-organ mass weighted neutron absorbed dose, corresponding to each condition were determined. The conversion factor for uncollied fission spectrum is 7.7 $[(Bq^{24}Na/g^{23}Na)/mGy]$.

In this paper, the static and dynamic characteristics in the sensor tube of a mass flow controller(MFC) were studied by experiments. In the sensor tube of MFC. the difference of temperature between inlet and outlet was necessary for calculating the mass flow rate. Therefore, the relations among flow rate, heat generated by heating wire. and sensor location were investigated to find optimized condition. Finally, the relation between sensor voltage through analog digital conversion(ADC) and flow rate in the sensor tube can be represented. Based on this study, static and dynamic characteristics of sensor tube can be used for design of mass flow controller.

A novel pretreatment technique was applied to the conventional Pt/alumina catalyst to prepare for the highly efficient catalyst for the preferential oxidation of carbon monoxide in hydrogen-rich condition. Their performance was investigated by selective CO oxidation reaction. CO conversion with the oxygen-treated Pt/Alumina catalyst increased remarkably especially at the low temperature below $100^{\circ}C$. This result is promising for the normal operation of the proton exchange membrane fuel cell (PEMFC) without CO poisoning of the anode catalyst. XRD analysis results showed that metallic Pt peaks were not observed for the oxygen-treated catalyst. This implies that well dispersed small Pt particles exist on the catalyst. This result was continued by high resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM) analysis. Consequently, it can be concluded that highly dispersed Pt nanoparticles could be prepared by the novel pretreatment technique and thus, CO conversion could be increased considerably especially at the low temperatures below $100^{\circ}C$.

Characteristics of a plasma reactor for partial oxidation of methane, especially focused on the role and effectiveness of plasma chemistry, are investigated. Partial oxidation of methane is investigated using a rotating arc which is a three dimensional version of a typical gliding arc. Three different modes of operation were found. Each mode shows different reforming performance. The reason for the difference is due to the difference in relative role of thermal and plasma chemistry in overall process. A mode with high temperature results higher methane conversion and hydrogen selectivity in contrast to the mode with lower temperature where poor methane conversion and higher selectivity of $C_2$ species are observed. In this way, we can confirm that by controlling characteristic of process or controlling relative strength of plasma chemistry and thermal chemistry, it is possible to map an optimal condition of reforming process by rotating arc.

The optimal condition for the determination of saikosaponin a and d, the major pharmacologically active saponins of the roots of Bupleurum falcatum, was studied with the conversion of these saponins into diene saponins $(saikosaponin\;b_1\;and\;b_2)$. The complete separation and quantitative analysis of these saponins were performed by the method of high performance liquid chromatography using $NH_2$ column. The conversion of saikosaponin a and d into diene saponins under gastric pH was calculated. Thirty-three percent of saikosaponin a was converted to saikosaponin $b_1$ and 63 percent of saikosaponin d was converted to saikosaponin $b_2$.

The configuration effects of a tumble adaptor which transforms tumble into swirl on the intake tumble characterization under steady flow condition have been investigated by LDV measurement The following parameters were involved to test their effects on tumble-swirl conversion characteristics ; the cylinder height and its bottom shape, measuring position in the swirl induction pipe, and the relative direction of the induction pipe. The short cylinder height and the flat bottom of the tumble adaptor were found effective for the generation of tumble in the cylinder, allowing higher tumble-swirl conversion efficiency.
