  • Using Pseudomonas sp. B3, identified and isolated from nature, wastewater containing phenol was treated in a continuous stirred tank reactor and its reaction characteristics were studied. Average concentrations of phenol and COD in effluents were 1.5mg/L and 124mg/L at 0.059h-1 dilution rate, respectively. At the dilution rate higher than 0.063h-1, phenol and COD increased abruptly to 19mg/L and 318mg/L. At the dilution rate higher than 0.059h-1, biomass concentration suddenly decreased and was "washed out". Biomass concentration was 150mg/L at a dilution rate of 0.067h-1. Maximum biomass production rate was 15.98mg/L$.$h at a dilution rate of 0.067h-1. When dilution rate increased above 0.059h-1, effluent phenol concentration abruptly increased and biomass production rate decreased. Maximum cell growth rate(${\mu}$max) and Michaelis-Mentens kinetic constant(Ks) were 0.074h-1 and 0.424mg/L, respectively. From the above result low phenol concentration can be expected at a maximum dilution rate, but reactor becomes unstable due to phenol inhibition.

  • When triple flames propagated in a diverging channel, the effects of fuel dilution on the lift-off characteristics of triple flames were investigated. A multi-slot burner was used to stabilize the lift-off flame especially at weak fuel concentration gradients. It was reported that there is a maximum propagation velocity at a critical concentration gradient in an open jet regardless of fuel dilution. The enhancement of a diffusion flame affected to increase the propagation velocity around critical concentration gradients. However, the influence of a confined channel on the structure of triple flames according to fuel dilution needs to be investigated compared with an open jet case. This study aimed to examine the effect of a confined channel on the structure and the propagation velocity of the triple flames according to fuel dilution. Lift-off height and propagation velocity of triple flames were investigated by employing three kinds of fuel compositions diluted by nitrogen (0%, 25%, 50% $N_2$), Fuel dilution reduced the propagation velocity of triple flame in a confined channel mainly due to the decrease of flame temperature in premixed branch. Despite the difference in fuel dilution, the propagation velocity has a maximum value at a specific fuel concentration gradient even though the critical concentration gradient increases with fuel dilution. And the critical concentration gradient in a confined channel is larger than that in an open jet due to enhancement of convective diffusion.

  • The purpose of this study was to evaluate the clinical applications of the Sodium Dichloroisocyanurate effervescent tablet as a routine root canal irrigant by performing several in vitro tests such as $Cl^{-}$ content. cytotoxicity. antimicrobial effect as well as its pH level compared to the equivalent concentration of sodium hypochlorite solution. 1. Sodium Dichloroisocyanurate demonstrated lower level of $Cl^{-}$ concentration than each dilution of sodium hypochlorite solution. Both solution has increased level of $Cl^{-}$ as the concentration of each solution increased. There was no significant change of $Cl^{-}$ concentration in sodium hypochlorite as time goes by. However. $Cl^{-}$ concentration in Sodium Dichloroisocyanurate was increased. 2. The antimicrobial effects of both solutions were increased when their concentrations were increased. One day after dilution. antimicrobial effect of Sodium Dichloroisocyanurate was slightly higher than sodium hypochlorite. however. there was no difference in 1 week dilution solution. One month dilution solution of sodium hypochlorite still retain its activity. but antimicrobial effect of Sodium Dichloroisocyanurate was drastically decreased 1 month after dilution. 3. The cytotoxicity of Sodium Dichloroisocyanurate was rather higher than same concentration of sodium hypochlorite solution until 1 week after dilution. Then in 1 month. cytotoxicity of Sodium Dichloroisocyanurate was decreased than that of 1 week dilution solution. especially 4% Sodium Dichloroisocyanurate solution has almost no toxicity. However. 1% and 2% sodium hypochlorite solution has unchanged moderate degree of cytotoxicity after the dilution. Furthermore. 4% sodium hypochlorite solution showed high level of toxicity. 4. The pH level of Sodium Dichloroisocyanurate showed that the solution was weak acid (pH5). On the other hand. sodium hypochlorite was revealed as a strong alkaline solution (pH12). There was no change in pH following the dilution of each solution. As results. Sodium Dichloroisocyanurate solution fully satisfy the basic requirements as a root canal irrigation solution. However. we strongly recommend to use this solution clinically in low concentration and try to apply into the root canal within 1 week after dilution.

  • In this study, an integrated boration and dilution (INBAD) model is proposed to predict the required makeup flowrate for RCS boron concentration change and to analyze the boron concentration behavior at each subsystem within the RCS including CVCS during boration and dilution operation. The INBAD model is constructed by integrating an existing neutronic code and a boration and dilution model. The boration and dilution model has been developed for our specific purpose using the one-cell model and multi-cell model. In addition, in order to assess the boron concentration behavior more realistically, two important features such as variable pressurizer heater output and optional makeup mode (either direct or indirect injection) are implemented in this model. In order to demonstrate the usefulness of this model, the boron concentration behavior analysis at each subsystem were performed for both direct and indirect injection mode using YGN 3 and 4 design data. Also, the effect of pressurizer heater output on the primary loop boron concentration was investigated. The results showed that the boron concentration changes can be predicted accurately at each subsystem during boration and dilution operation.

  • Mixing zone characteristics of the wastewater effluents discharged from an ocean outfall have been investigated using an outfall mixing zone analysis method. This analysis was applied to Sokcho ocean outfall case and was used to simulate the concentration distribution of wastewater effluents. Hourly concentration distributions of outfall effluent discharges were averaged for the period of 15 days. The results show that near-field dilution was relatively high with the dilution of 130 for the winter season.

  • An experiment using preheated air in the coaxial diffusion flame burner was carried out in order to decrease NOx emission and improve the thermal efficiency. Preheated air combustion generally produces high NOx emissions but it was known very well to reduce NOx emission by diluting the combustion air with inert gas in preheated air combustion. In our study, $N_2$ gas was used for diluent and propane was utilized for fuel. We set the combustion air temperature on 300K, 500K, 700K, 900K and dilution level from 21% to 10% in terms of oxygen concentration. NOx emission increased along increment of combustion air temperature and decreased along increment of dilution level(lowering of oxygen concentration in combustion air). Flame-off limit with dilution level enhanced, flame length became longer and the location of maximum flame temperature became lower with increasing of combustion air temperature.

  • This study was to find a more accurate method fur measuring small vancomycin dosages which are commonly used in neonates by comparing single and double dilution method. For single dilution method, 500 mg of vancomycin powder was accurately measured and reconstituted with 5 ml of distilled water to make a concentration of 100 mg/ml. Volumes of 0.05, 0.1, 0.15, 0.2, 0.3, 0.4, and 0.5 ml, which equal the target dosages of 5, 10, 15, 20, 30, 40, and 50 mg, were measured using syringes made by Shina and each sample was further diluted with 2 ml of $5\%$ dextrose. The solution of 100 mg/ml concentration was further diluted with $5\%$ dextrose to make a concentration of 20 mg/ml. Volumes of 0.25, 0.5, 0.75, 1.0, 1.5, 2.0, and 2.5 ml, which correspond to 5, 10, 15, 20, 30, 40, and 50 mg, were sampled by the same Shina's syringe as in single dilution method and then each sample was further diluted to make a total volume of 10 ml. Each sample was analyzed by HPLC. The measured dosages of each sample in both single and double dilution methods were lower than the target dosages; however, e values in double dilution method were higher than those in single dilution method for seven target dosages. Percent target dosages in single dilution method were 65 to $90\%$, while in double dilution method 91 to $94\%$. Statistically significant difference between two groups was shown in 5, 10, 15, 20, and 40 mg dosages (p<0.05). In conclusion, when preparing small vancomycin dosages lower an 20 mg $(volume{\leq}0.2\;ml)$, using Shina's syringes, the double dilution method has a closer value to the target dosage than single dilution method.

  • Even though we drink and excrete water without recognition, the amount and the composition of body fluid remain constant everyday. Maintenance of a normal osmolality is under the control of water balance which is regulated by vasopressin despite sodium concentration is the dominant determinant of plasma osmolality. The increased plasma osmolality (hypernatremia) can be normalized by the concentration of urine, which is the other way of gaining free water than drinking water, while the low plasma osmolality (hyponatremia) can be normalized by the dilution of urine which is the only regulated way of free water excretion. On the other hand, volume status depends on the control of sodium balance which is regulated mainly by renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system, through which volume depletion can be restored by enhancing sodium retention and concomitant water reabsorption. This review focuses on the urine concentration and dilution mechanism mediated by vasopressin and the associated disorders; diabetes insipidus and syndrome of inappropriate antidiuretic hormone secretion.
