탄화온도 $600^{\circ}C$에서 제조한 신갈나무(Red oak, Quercus mongolica) 목탄의 카드뮴(Cd)(II) 이온에 대한 액상흡착 특성과 흡착과정 중의 열역학적 특성을 구명하고자 하였다. 0.2 g 신갈나무 목탄을 사용하여 $25m{\ell}$의 카드뮴 용액을 280분간의 흡착 처리한 바, 카드뮴 용액의 초기농도 20 및 40 ppm의 경우에는 거의 100%에 가까운 흡착 제거율을 보인 반면, 80 및 160 ppm 용액에 있어서는 각각 75와 50%의 제거율을 보였다. 또한 흡착처리 시간별 카드뮴제거율은 농도변화에 의한 차이는 거의 나타나지 않았고, 모든 농도에서 초기 10분 동안 가장 많은 양의 카드뮴이 제거되었으며, 각 용액에 대한 최대 카드뮴제거 능력의 약 70% 이상에 해당하는 제거율을 보였다. 카드뮴 농도 및 흡착시간에 따른 흡착성을 이용하여 조사한 $30^{\circ}C$에서의 흡착등온선은 Langmuir 흡착식과 매우 높은 상관관계를 가지는 것으로 나타났으며, 이러한 결과로부터 목탄에 의한 카드뮴 이온 흡착은 목탄 표면의 활성부위에 단일 분자층 형태로 흡착되는 것으로 추측이 된다. 또한 흡착 반응의 자유에너지(${\Delta}G^{\circ}$) 분석에서, 초기 농도 20, 40, 80 ppm인 용액은 모든 흡착처리 시간대에서 음의 값을 나타내어, 목탄에 의한 카드뮴 흡착은 자발적 반응으로 이루어지는 것으로 나타났기 때문에, 흡착 시에 더 이상의 에너지 공급이 필요하지 않는 것으로 판단된다.

수용액으로부터 활성탄에 대한 아닐린 블루의 흡착 평형, 동역학 및 열역학적 특성을 초기농도, 접촉시간과 온도를 흡착변수로 하여 조사하였다. 아닐린 블루의 등온흡착은 Langmuir, Freundlich, Redlich-Peterson, Temkin 및 Dubinin-Radushkevich 모델을 통해 해석하였다. Langmuir 모델이 다른 모델들 보다 등온 데이터에 더 잘 맞았다. 평가된 Langmuir 분리계수($R_L=0.036{\sim}0.068$)는 활성탄에 의한 아닐린 블루의 흡착 공정이 효과적인 처리방법이 될 수 있음을 나타냈다. 흡착속도상수는 유사일차속도 모델, 유사이차속도 모델 및 입자내 확산 모델에 적용하여 구하였다. 활성탄에 대한 아닐린 블루의 흡착속도실험 결과는 유사이차 반응속도식에 잘 따랐다. 흡착 메카니즘은 입자내 확산 모델에 의해 경막 확산과 입자내 확산의 두 단계로 평가되었다. 흡착공정에 대한 깁스 자유에너지, 엔탈피 및 엔트로피 변화와 같은 열역학 파라미터들이 평가되었다. 엔탈피 변화(48.49 kJ/mol)은 흡착공정이 물리흡착이고 흡열반응임을 알려주었다. 깁스 자유 에너지는 온도가 올라갈수록 감소하였기 때문에 흡착반응은 온도가 올라갈수록 자발성이 더 높아졌다. 등량흡착열은 흡착제 표면의 에너지 불균일성 때문에 흡착제와 흡착질 사이에 상호작용이 있음을 나타내었다.

This study reports on the dissolution behavior of SrO in LiCl at varying SrO concentrations from low concentrations to excess. The amount of SrO dissolved in the molten salt and the species present upon cooling were determined. The thermal behavior of LiCl containing various concentrations of SrO was investigated. The experimental results were compared with results from the simulated results using the HSC Chemistry software package. Although the reaction of SrO with LiCl in the standard state at 650 ℃ has a slightly positive Gibbs free energy, SrO was found to be highly soluble in LiCl. Experimentally determined SrO concentrations were found to be considerably higher than those present in used nuclear fuel (<2 g/kg). As Sr-90 is one of the most important heat-generating nuclides in used nuclear fuel, this finding will be impactful in the development of fast, simple, and proliferation-resistant heat reduction processes for used nuclear fuel without the need for separating nuclear materials. Heat reduction is important as it decreases both the volume necessary for final disposal and the worker handling risk.

The aim of this study is to find out the condition that generates maximum $H_2$ through the calculation of equilibrium model with conditions of pyrolysis gases of Refuse Plastic Fuel(RPF). This study deals with the computational simulation of a RPF gasification using an equilibrium model based on minimization of the Gibbs free energy. An equilibrium analysis was carried out to determine species composition of Syngas in RPF gasification and reactions to variation of temperature, $O_2$/Fuel ratio and Steam/Fuel ratio. Calculated results showed that $O_2$/Fuel ratio, Steam/Fuel ratio and temperature affected on mole fraction of $H_2$, CO.

This paper is devoted to detecting decomposition characteristics of Iodotrifluoromethane ($CF_3I$) under alternating current (AC) discharges or load current interruptions. The decomposition products are measured utilizing chromatography-mass spectroscopy. It is found that less than 1% $CF_3I$ gas decomposed after several interruptions at load current of 200 A or hundred times of AC discharges. However, under interruptions at a current of 400 A, more than 95% $CF_3I$ gas decomposed into carbon tetrafluoride ($CF_4$) and hexafluoroethane ($C_2F_6$). The equilibrium compositions based on Gibbs free energy minimization of $CF_3I$ was calculated to explain the decomposition mechanism.

Adsorption of Congo Red (CR) from dye-containing effluents using modified bentonite (MB) has been investigated here. Isothermal studies were conducted to ascertain maximum adsorption capacity of the adsorbent. MB exhibited superior adsorption capacity compared to other low-cost adsorbents. Experimental data fitted the Langmuir isotherm better, indicating monolayer coverage of CR on MB. The feasibility of the process was measured in terms of separation factor $R_L$. The values of Gibbs free energy, entropy and enthalpy were calculated from the thermodynamics of the process. Adsorption was feasible and spontaneous, being endothermic. Analytical techniques including SEM, EDS, FTIR and XRD were applied to characterize MB and also to provide conclusive proof of the accumulation of CR on to MB.

In this paper, an iterative MAP approach using a Bayesian model based on the lognormal distribution for image intensity and a GRF for image texture is proposed for despeckling the SAR images that are corrupted by multiplicative speckle noise. When the image intensity is logarithmically transformed, the speckle noise is approximately Gaussian additive noise, and it tends to a normal probability much faster than the intensity distribution. The MRF is incorporated into digital image analysis by viewing pixel type s as states of molecules in a lattice-like physical system defined on a GRF. Because of the MRFGRF equivalence, the assignment of an energy function to the physical system determines its Gibbs measure, which is used to model molecular mteractions. The proposed adaptive iterative method was evaluated using simulation data generated by the Monte Carlo method. In the extensive experiments of this study, the proposed method demonstrated the capability to relax speckle noise and estimate noise-free intensity.

A shake-flask method was used to determine the n-octanol/water partition coefficients of sulfamethazine, sulfadimethoxine, sulfamethoxydiazine, sulfamonomethoxine, sulfamethoxazole, sulfaquinoxaline and sulfachloropyrazine from (298.15 to 333.15) K. The results showed that the n-octanol/water partition coefficient of each sulfonamide decreased with the increase of temperature. Based on the fluid phase equilibrium theory, the thermodynamic relationship of n-octanol/water partition coefficient depending on the temperature is proposed, and the changes of enthalpy, entropy, and the Gibbs free energy function for sulfonamides partitioning in n-octanol/ water are determined, respectively. Sulfonamides molecules partitioning in n-octanol/water is mainly an enthalpy driving process, during which the order degrees of system increased. The temperature effect coefficient of n-octanol/water partition coefficient is discussed. The results show that its magnitude is the same as that of values in the literature.

This paper presents an analytical approach for the vibration characteristics of a piezoelectric disc for torsional vibration transducers. The characteristic equation of the piezoelectric annular disc has been derived from Gibbs' free energy equations and mechanical and electrical equilibrium. With an anisotropic material properties of the disc, the characteristic equation has yielded resonance frequencies. Numerically-calculated results have been compared with the results obtained by the finite element analysis and experiments and have confirmed the validity of the theoretical analysis.
