In the study, Ni²⁺ (nickel) removal from synthetically prepared wastewater by electrocoagulation method, which is one of the electrochemical treatment processes, was investigated and parameters such as current density, pH, mixing speed, initial Ni²⁺ concentration, supporting electrolyte type and concentration were determined to determine Ni²⁺ removal efficiencies effects were studied. Experiment conditions during 30 minutes of electrolysis; the current density was determined as 0.95 mA/cm², the initial pH of the wastewater was 6, the mixing speed was 150 rpm, and the initial nickel concentration was 250 mg/L. The Ni²⁺ removal efficiency was obtained as 75.99% under the determined experimental conditions, while the energy consumption was calculated as 3.15 kW-h/m³. In the experiments, it was observed that the type and concentration of the supporting electrolyte did not have a significant effect on the Ni²⁺ removal efficiency. In the trials where the effect of the support electrolyte concentration was examined, the Ni²⁺ removal efficiency was 75.99% in the wastewater environment without the supporting electrolyte, while the Ni²⁺ removal efficiency was 81.55% when 7.5 mmol/L NaCl was used after the 30-minute reaction, and the energy consumption was 2.15 kW-h/m³ obtained as. As a result of the studies, it was concluded that the electrocoagulation process can be applied in the treatment of wastewater containing Ni²⁺.

Objectives: Feasibility of electrochemical oxidation of the aqueous non-biodegradable wastewater such as cationic dye Rhodamine B (RhB) has been investigated in an electrochemical reactor with solid polymer electrolyte (SPE). Methods: Nafion 117 cationic exchange membrane as SPE has been used. Anode/Nafion/cathode sandwiches were constructed by sandwiching Nafion between two dimensionally stable anodes (JP202 electrode). Experiments were conducted to examine the effects of applied current (0.5~2.0 A), supporting electrolyte type (0.2 N NaCl, $Na_2SO_4$, and 1.0 g/L NaCl), initial RhB concentration (2.5~30.0 mg/L) on RhB and COD degradation and $UV_{254}$ absorbance. Results: Experimental results showed that an increase of applied current in electrolysis reaction with solid polymer electrolyte has resulted in the increase of RhB and $UV_{254}$ degradation. Performance for RhB degradation by electrolyte type was best with NaCl 0.2 N followed by SPE, and $Na_2SO_4$. However, the decrease of $UV_{254}$ absorbance of RhB was different from RhB degradation: SPE > NaCl 0.2 N > $Na_2SO_4$. RhB and $UV_{254}$ absorbance decreased linearly with time regardless of the initial concentration. The initial RhB and COD degradation in electrolysis reaction using SPE showed a pseudo-first order kinetics and rate constants were 0.0617 ($R^2=0.9843$) and 0.0216 ($R^2=0.9776$), respectively. Conclusions: Degradation of RhB in the electrochemical reactor with SPE can be achieved applying electrochemical oxidation. Supporting electrolyte has no positive effect on the final $UV_{254}$ absorbance and COD degradation. Mineralization of COD may take a relatively longer time than that of the RhB degradation.

Electrochemical properties of LiMn₂O₄ cathode were investigated in three types of Zn-containing electrolytes: lithium-zinc sulfate electrolyte (1M ZnSO₄ / 2M Li₂SO₄), zinc sulfate electrolyte (2MZnSO₄) and lithium-zinc-manganese sulfate electrolyte (1MZnSO₄ / 2MLi₂SO₄ / 0.1MMnSO₄). Cyclic voltammetry measurements demonstrated that LiMn₂O₄ is electrochemically inactive in pure ZnSO₄ electrolyte after initial oxidation. The effect of manganese (II) additive in the zinc-manganese sulfate electrolyte on the electrochemical performance was analyzed. The initial capacity of LiMn₂O₄ is higher in presence of MnSO₄ (140 mAh g^-1 in 1 M ZnSO₄ / 2 M Li₂SO₄ / 0.1 M MnSO₄ and 120 mAh g^-1 in 1 M ZnSO₄ / 2MLi₂SO₄). The capacity increase can be explained by the electrodeposition of MnO_x layer on the electrode surface. Structural characterization of postmortem electrodes with use of XRD and EDX analysis confirmed that partially formed in pure ZnSO₄ electrolyte Zn-containing phase leads to fast capacity fading which is probably related to blocked electroactive sites.

This Study has treated the effects of fiber, surfactants, temperature, surfactant concentration, pH, electrolyte, fatty acid contents and mechanical force on the removal of particulate soil from fabric, vacuum cleaner dirt was used as model particulate soil. The fabrics were soiled with mixture of vacuum cleaner dirt and fatty soil, and washed in Terg-O-tometer. The detergency was evaluated by measuring reflectance of a fabric before and after washing. The results were as follows. 1. The fiber type showed a different pattern of soil removal with surfactants. In general, particulate soil removal increased in the following order Acetate>PET. Nylon>Cotton. Particulate soil removal, which is affected by the surfactant type, increased in the following order NPE $(EO)_{10}\leqq$Soap>SLS>DBS>Tween 80. 2. The influence of temperature on the particulate soil removal was very complex because efficiency of removal was varied with surfactant and fiber types. The washing efficiency of NPE $(EO)_{10}$ was highest at around $40^{\circ}C\;and\;60^{\circ}C$ with cotton and PET but the washing efficiency of DBS was the highest at $60^{\circ}C$ with cotton, decreased monotonously with increasing temperature with PET 3. The detergency of particulate soil increased with increasing surfactant concentration at relatively low concentration and then levelled off above some optimum concentration. 4. The removal of particulate soil increased with increasing pH and mechanical force. 5. Effect of electrolyte on the particulate soil removal was depended on the concentration of the surfactant. At low concentration of surfactant, addition of electrolytes improved soil removal but above the some concentration no effect was observed. At high concentration of surfactant, Vie., $0.6\%$ , the maximum washing effect is reached without added electrolyte. These result indicate that added electrolyte only influence the adsorption of surfactant on the soil and fiber 6. Fatty acid content in the soil did not influence on particulate soil removal without regard to surfactants.

황산과 황산구리 수용액을 전해질로 사용하여 다공성 그물구조 금속을 전기화학적으로 제조하였으며, 이때 균질 전착에 영향을 미치는 첨가제 PEG, MPS의 영향에 대해 살펴보았다. 분극실험과 기공의 평균 직경이 $250{\mu}m$의 그물구조 전극을 여러장 적층하여 throwing power를 정량화 한 결과, PEG의 경우 분극 초기에 전극에서 탈착됨으로써 오히려 throwing power를 감소시키고 MPS는 500ppm까지 용액 중 첨가량의 증가와 함께 throwing power를 향상시키는 결과를 보였다 또한 MPS와 PEG가 동시에 혼합된 용액에서는 MPS의 효과가 우선적으로 나타나며 PEG의 효과는 무시할 정도였다 그러나 MPS의 첨가는 전착층의 균열을 유도하여 기계적 강도에 좋지 못한 영향을 미치며 균열을 피하려면 50ppm 이하가 적정함을 SEM 관찰을 통해 확인할 수 있었다.

전해질 농도가 낮은 병원폐수를 전기화학적으로 처리할 경우 무기응집제 주입 효과에 대해 고찰한 결과, 무기응집제 주입으로 전해질 농도가 높아져 병원폐수 내 유리염소의 농도의 증가로 유기물질의 간접산화효과가 증가하여 전류밀도 $1.76A/dm^2$, 반응시간 120분에서 무기응집제를 주입하지 않은 경우보다 COD 제거효율이 약 2배 향상되었다. 또한, 무기응집제에 의한 전해질의 증가로 HOCl과 같은 유리 잔류염소의 증가로 병원폐수 내의 클로라민이 질소로 전환되는 속도가 증가함에 따라 전류밀도 $1.76A/dm^2$, 반응시간 120분 및 응집제 주입량 700 ppm에서 T-N 제거율을 약 2배 향상시킬 수 있었다. 동일 조건에서 90% 이상의 높은 T-P 제거율을 얻을 수 있었는데, 이는 무기응집제에 의한 전해질의 증가로 양전극에서의 발생되는 용존산소에 의해 생성된 불용성 금속 화합물과 인산염의 화학적 흡착반응 속도가 증가하였기 때문인 것으로 판단된다. 이상의 실험에서 전해질이 부족한 병원폐수의 전기화학적 처리시 무기응집제를 전해질로 첨가할 경우 유기물질 및 영양염 제거에 모두 매우 효과적임을 알 수 있었다.

많은 실험실 기반의 리튬이차전지 실험결과는 코인셀로부터 얻어진다. 이는 조립의 용이성, 저렴한 가격, 실험 결과의 우수한 재연성 등에 기인한다. 코인셀은 케이스(case), 가스켓(gasket), 스페이서(spacer disk), 스프링(wave spring)로 구성되어 있으며, 이러한 구조적인 특성으로 인하여 코인셀은 상용화된 파우치, 각형 및 원통형 전지에 비하여 전극 무게 대비 많은 양의 전해질을 포함하게 된다. 하지만 과량의 전해액이 셀의 성능에 미치는 영향에 대한 연구는 현재까지 이루어지지 않은 상황이다. 본 연구에서는 액체 전해액의 양을 다르게 제어하여 코인셀에 미치는 영향을 알아보고자 하였다. 전해액의 양은 전극 용량 대비 30, $100mg\;mAh^{-1}$(전해액의 양/전극용량)로 제어하였으며, 조립된 셀의 전해액 함량에 따른 전기화학적 특성을 확인하기 위해 초기 충 방전 곡선과 상온 ($25^{\circ}C$), 고온 ($60^{\circ}C$) 및 고전압(4.5 V)에서의 수명특성평가를 진행하였다. $30mg\;mAh^{-1}$의 전해액을 포함하는 단위 전지의 경우, 고온 및 고전압 조건에서 $100mg\;mAh^{-1}$의 경우에 비해 매우 우수한 방전 용량 유지 특성을 나타내었다. 전자는 후자보다 더 큰 내부저항 증가를 보였으며, 이를 통해 전해액의 양이 전지의 방전 용량 유지 특성에 매우 큰 영향을 미치고 있음을 확인하였다.

비닐에틸렌 카보네이트(VEC: vinyl ethylene carbonate)를 전해질 첨가제로 사용했을 때 하이브리드 커패시터(hybrid capacitors) 전극에서 나타나는 전기화학적 특성변화에 대해서 고찰하였다. 하이브리드 커패시터는 양극은 활성탄(AC : activated carbon) 음극은 리튬티타늄옥사이드(LTO: $Li_4Ti_5O_{12}$)를 사용하였고, 전해질로서는 에틸렌 카보네이트(EC: ethylene carbonate): 디메틸 카보네이트 (DMC: dimethyl carbonate) : 에틸메틸 카보네이트(EMC : ethyl methyl carbonate)를 사용하였고, 염으로 육불화인산리튬($LiPF_6$: lithium hexafluoro phosphate)을 사용하였다. 전극 표면의 산소관능기 그룹을 제거하고, 표면을 환원시킴으로써 전극에 안정성을 향상시킨다고 알려진 VEC의 첨가량에 따른 전기화학적 특성을 평가하였으며, 0.7%(부피비)의 VEC첨가시, 가장 우수한 전기화학적 특성을 얻을 수 있었다. 0.7% 이상 첨가하였을 경우, 오히려 부반응 증가로 전기화학적 성능이 감소하였다. X-ray photoelectron spectrocopy (XPS) 결과로부터 LTO 전극에서 VEC가 첨가되지 않은 전해질에 비해 LiF가 감소한 것을 확인 할 수 있었다. VEC가 첨가되지 않은 전해질은 2500 사이클 후, 43.2 %의 용량 유지를 나타냈지만, 최적화된 VEC 첨가를 통하여 82.7 %의 높은 용량을 유지하는 특성을 가진 하이브리드 커패시터를 얻을 수 있었다.
