Needs for high ash loading in printing paper increase as green house gas (GHG) emission regulation becomes more stricter and pressure of lowering paper production cost increases. To meet the needs, a new type of filler was developed. The mixture of ground calcium carbonate (GCC) and calcium oxide was pre-floccuated with polyelectrolyte and further treated with carbon dioxide to form new calcium carbonate between GCCs. The final products were called as hybrid calcium carbonate (HCC), and its properties were compared to the GCC and the pre-flocculated GCC. Results showed increase in tensile, smoothness, opacity, and bulk for HCC.

Electrospinning is one of the simple, cost- efficient methods to produce long continuous semiconducting oxide nanofibers. Polyvinyl Alcohol (PVA) and zinc acetate were used. PVA/Zinc acetate aqueous solutions were electrospun into nonwoven webs. CCD camera, with a lens of long working distance and digital video board were used in capturing the drop and web deposition. The diameter and morphology of nanofibers were analyzed with a Field-emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM). In this study, the average diameter and morphology of nanofibers have been explorered.

The full transport equation approach for laminar non-premixed flame with detailed chemistry, soot and radiation has an advantage in accuracy and describing for emission pathway, but this approach requires the excessive computational cost especially for a higher-order hydrocarbon fuel flames. On the other hand, the standard flamelet model has an efficiency and accuracy for non-premixed flame, though this model is not suitable for simulating slow processor like soot and radiation in laminar non-premixed flame situation. To overcome this limitation, modified transient flamelet model is developed which coupled with two-equation soot model involved in soot formation and evolution mechanism such as nucleation, surface growth, oxidation and agglomeration.

Diesel particulate trap is the most reliable system to reduce the particulate matters from diesel engine. Filter is the core component of DPF and ceramic monolith type is dominantly used, which is expensive and fragile relatively at thermal shock. Porous metal filter, which has superior thermal characteristics and low cost, was tested in order to analyze the regeneration performance by using with ferrocene additive. This filter showed the 72% filtration efficiency, additives itself diminished 48% of PM from engine out emission, and final PM reduction ratio of 89% was achieved by DPF system with D-13 test mode.

Exergetic and thermoeconomic analysis were performed for a 200kW Phosphoric Acid Fuel Cell(PAFC) plant which offers many advantage for cogeneration in the aspect of high electrical efficiency and low emission. This analytical study was based on the data obtained by in-field measurement of PC25 fuel cell plant to find whether this system is viable economically. For 100% load condition, the electrical efficiency and the unit cost of electricity are about 45% and 0.032 $/kWh respectively, which turn out to be much better than those for the 1000kW gas turbine cogeneration plant. Further, at lower loads, the unit costs of electricity and hot water increase slightly and consequently more economic operation is possible at any loads.

This study was carried out to determine a suitable mixing rate to utilize the PDF as a bedding materials at the pigpens and investigate the effect of substitute processed dustproof fly-ash(PDF) on the odor. In proportion to the increase of substitute rate of the PDF, the utilizable period was extended, and there was a little change of the moisture in the bedding materials. At all the treatment of PDF, there was the significant effect on the maggots and parasites but it didn\`t hinder in the biodegradation. According to highly mixing rate, PDF decreased in the noxious gas ($NH_3$ and $H_2$S) emission. In conclusion, the mixing rate of 30% or above this substituted level will increase replacement terms, and reduce the sawdust cost and the pollutions of breed pigs.

In this work, Ga-doped ZnO (GZO) thin films for toxic gas sensor application were deposited on low temperature co-fired ceramic (LTCC) substrates, by RF magnetron sputtering method. LTCC is one of promising materials for integration with heater, low cost production and high manufacturing yields than silicon substrate. The LTCC substrates with thickness of $400\;{\mu}m$ were fabricated by laminating 12 greentapes which consist of alumina and glass particle in an organic binder. The GZO thin films deposited on the substrates and were analyzed by X-ray diffraction method (XRD) and field emission scanning electron microscope (FESEM). The films are well crystallized in the hexagonal (wurzite) structure with increasing thickness. The fabricated sensors showed good sensitivity and fast response time to common types of toxic gases (NOx, COx).

Nitrogen-atom doped graphene oxide was considered to prevent the dissolution of polysulfide and to guarantee the enhanced redox reaction of sulfur for good cycle performance of lithium sulfur cells. In this study, we used urea as a nitrogen source due to its low cost and easy preparation. To find the optimum urea content, we tested three different ratios of urea to graphene oxide. The morphology of the composites was examined by field emission scanning electron microscope. Functional groups and bonding characterization were measured by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. Electrochemical properties were characterized by cyclic voltammetry in an organic electrolyte solution. Compared with thermally reduced graphene/sulfur (S) composite, nitrogen-doped graphene/S composites showed higher electroactivity and more stable capacity retention.

Cellulose is a beneficial material that has low cost, lightweight, high compatibility and biodegradability. Recently electroactive paper (EAPap) on cellulose base was discovered as a smart material and actuator through ion migration and piezoelectric effect. Furthermore cellulose has a potentiality to apply the display material, because of its high reflectivity, flexibility and high transmittance. The various shapes and height patterns of the Cellulose acetate (CA) solution, such as circle and honeycomb patterns, were fabricated and observed by field emission scanning electron microscope (FESEM, S4300 Hitachi). The resulting pattern showed uniform size in the large area without defect. After stretching the CA film with saponification process in the sodium methoxide in methanol solution, Most of the compositions become one directional ordered nanofibers below 50nm.

A Continuous Descent Approach(CDA) is defined as a simple, cost-effective, noise and emission abatement technique for any powered aircraft on approach. CDA also can be optimised within energy, speed and safety constraints by avoiding unnecessary flap, air brake and engine thrust. This study includes comparison on fuel consumption between Continuous Descent type and Step Down type by using flight data. In particular, we investigated fuel flow per hour, calibrated airspeed and pressure altitude for all flight time. During descent flight, the fuel consumption of Continuous Descent type was less than the fuel consumption of Step Down type.
