A back propagation artificial neural network model with one hidden layer is established to correlate the liquid-liquid equilibrium data of hydrocarbon-water systems. The model has four inputs and two outputs. The network is systematically trained with 48 data points in the range of 283.15 to 405.37K. Statistical analyses show that the optimised neural network model can yield excellent agreement with experimental data(the average absolute deviations equal to 0.037% and 0.0012% for the correlated mole fractions of hydrocarbon in two coexisting liquid phases respectively). The comparison in terms of average absolute deviation between the correlated mole fractions for each binary system and literature results indicates that the artificial neural network model gives far better results. This study also shows that artificial neural network model could be developed for the phase equilibria for a family of hydrocarbon-water binaries.

This study of the performance characteristics of natural refrigerants such as R-290 (propane), R-6OOa (iso-butane) and R-1270 (propylene) has investigated to compare with conventional HCFC's refrigerant R-22 for water-cooled heat pump system. The experimental apparatus has basic parts of cycle that uses the water as a heat source. The Performance of the water-cooled system using hydrocarbon refrigerants had been getting better than R-22 from start-up to the similar evaporating temperature after stabilizing system. Through the above it is possible that hydrocarbon refrigerants could be drop-in alternatives for R-22.

This study was performed to test the applicability of the ozone/hydroxy radical reaction system, which applied advanced oxidation processes, to remove total petroleum hydrocarbon (TPH) from the fine soil in washing water of the soil washing process. Removal efficiency was tested on 40 L of washing water in a pilot reaction tank. Fine soil contaminated with $800mg\;kg^{-1}$ TPH was prepared at 5% and 10% suspended solids. Testing conditions included ozone/hydroxy radical flow rates of 40, 80, and $120L\;min^{-1}$, and processing time of 2 to 12 hours. The removal efficiency of petroleum hydrocarbon from water waster by ozone/hydroxy radical was increased with higher flow rates and lower percentages of suspended solids. Optimal efficiency was achieved at $80L\;min^{-1}$ flow rate for 4 hours for the 5% suspended solids, and $120L\;min^{-1}$ for 6 hours for the 10% suspended solids. These results verified the efficiency of hydroxy radical in removing TPH and the applicability of the ozone/hydroxy radical reaction system in the field.

A physical model experiment with GPR and 3-D resisitivity survey were conducted to investigate the geoelectrical response of hydrocarbon-impacted zone, so called smeared zone, on the geophysical data. The results from the experiment show that GPR signals were enhanced when LNAPL was present as a residual saturation in the water saturated system (${\varepsilon}_r$ = 21) due to less attenuation of the electromagnetic energy through the medium, compared to when the medium was saturated with only water (${\varepsilon}_r$ = 21). 3-D resistivity data obtained from the former gas station site demonstrate that the highly contaminated zones could be imaged with low resistivities attributed to the biodegradation of petroleum hydrocarbons at the aged, hydrocarbon-impacted sites. The study results also show that the geophysical methods, as a non-invasive sounding technique, can be a very useful tool for mapping hydrocarbon-contaminated zones.

The oil in water type ME of 4 component system was composed with POE monoalkyl ether and POE sorbitan monoalkyl ester as surfactant, saturated hydrocarbon, side chain structure and aromatic structure as oil, and glycerine as cosurfactant using high pressure homogenizer. The objective of this study was to examine the role of surfactant and oil structure on droplet size and stability. The experimental results showed that the droplet size was smaller with bigger polarity of oil, less hydrocarbon, longer hydrophilic chain of surfactant and higher concentration of glycerine. SQ and LP systems showed very stable but AB and ISB system unstable microemulsion.

The performance of an air to water vapor compression heat pump has been investigated experimentally. The main purpose of this study was to study the possibilities of using hydrocarbon refrigerants as a working fluid to replace R-22 for vapor compression heat pumps. Pure R-22 and R-290, R-600a, R-1270 were considered as working fluids. The performance of the system was characterized by compression shaft work, refrigeration capacity, pressure ratio, discharge temperature and COP. The experimental apparatus has basic parts of cycle that uses the air as a heat source. The experimental results show that refrigeration capacity of HC refrigerants is same or higher than that of R-22. On the other hand, compression shaft work of HC refrigerants is lower than that of R-22. Compression shaft work is lower than that of R-22. Come to the conclusion that, it is possible that hydrocarbon refrigerants could be drop-in alternatives for R-22.

Marine controlled source electromagnetics (CSEM) or sea bed logging (SBL) is an emerging technology which can provide quantitative information on hydrocarbon reservoir embedded in marine sediment. Electromagnetic responses to the resistive formation saturated with a certain amount of hydrocarbon can be characterized by less attenuated profile otherwise exponentially attenuated fields in conductive sea water or through sediments, and thus can be regarded as a direct indicator of hydrocarbon. In this paper, we introduce the technology of marine CSEM in terms of its physical characteristics and in comparison of typical three-dimensional (3-D) seismic method. History and evolution of commercial marine CSEM are also briefly summarized. We then introduce a representative case history showing how marine CSEM works in reality. Outlook of future applications and technical advances to be made are discussed. Finally, we demonstrate a test example of 2.5-D inversion of synthetic data as the groundwork of 3-D inversion of field data that is to be the ultimate goal of technical development.

Pulsed Field Gradient NMR(FT-PFGE)을 이용하여 N-alkyl-N, N-dimethylamine oxide/hydrocarbon/$D_2O[C_nDMAO/C_{n^{\prime}}H_{{2n^{\prime}+2}}/D_2O]$ 3성분 계에서 자기확산 계수를 측정하였다. 여기서 n = 12, 14, 16인 계면활성제를 사용하였으며, n' = 6, 8, 10, 12, 14인 탄화수소를 사용하였다. 미셀 상에서 주로 확산은 미셀의 유체역학적 이동에 지배되며, 미셀들의 충돌로 가용화된 탄화수소의 교환에 의해서도 일부 이루어진다. 이 연구는 계면활성제의 알킬 사슬 길이와 탄화수소 분자크기의 변화에 따라서 검토되었다. 그 결과 큐빅 상에서 용매는 물의 연속상에서 거동에 대한 전형적인 자기확산 계수 값을 나타내고, 이때 장애물로서 마이크로에멀젼 액적이 작용한다. 겔 상태에서 계면활성제의 유동성은 낮고, 알킬 사슬 길이가 가장 짧은 계면활성제에 대해서만 결정되었다. 겔 내에서 미셀들 간의 탄화수소 교환은 호핑 과정에 의해서 일어나는 것을 알았고, 회합율은 계면활성제의 알킬 사슬 길이에 따라 감소하였다.

The purpose of this study is to see the effect of microbial population and dynamics of the indigeonous microorganisms on hydrocarbon contaminated areas. The microbial structures and activities to determine the microbial capabilities of the contaminated sites are very important for the remedial action technology selection. Throughout microbial studies on different conditions by ETS(Electron Transport System) and microbial activity analysis, it was found that aeration and water contents are the most important factors in this site remediation. According to test results, Burkholderia spp. was dominant species, and acclimation is also an important factor for the accerelated biodegradation.

Recently, the new refrigerating system, using non - fluorinated hydrocarbon refrigerants has to be developed for the agricultural fields. One of that kinds of systems is the cooling system using the water vapor and vacuum, in which the water evaporate at the low temperature under vacuum and absorb the large amount of the latent heat. If vapor with large amount of latent heat is removed from the system, the system is cooled accordingly. The characteristics of cooling under the vacuum was observed and measured using experimental apparatus, which is consisted of vacuum chamber, the ejectors, the pumps and the measurement apparatus. As the results of experiments, we know that the evaporation in the vacuum occurs vigorously when the materials to be cooled has more amounts of heat before cooling, and by which effects the materials can be cooled. The cooling vacuum system is more efficient than other methods when the agricultural products is chilled or dried.
