Mesoporous MCM-41 was deposited on an inexpensive disk shaped ceramic support through hydrothermal technique for ultrafiltration of $Fe^{3+}$ from aqueous solution. The ceramic support was fabricated using uni-axial compaction technique followed by sintering at $950^{\circ}C$. The characteristics of MCM-41 powder as well as the composite membrane were examined by X-ray diffraction (XRD), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), field emission scanning electron microscope (FESEM), porosity and pure water permeation test. The XRD result revealed the good crystallinity and well-resolved hexagonally arranged pore geometry of MCM-41. TGA profile of synthesized MCM-41 zeolite displayed the three different stepwise mechanisms for the removal of organic template. The formation of MCM-41 on the porous support was verified by FESEM analysis. The characterization results clearly indicated that the accumulation of MCM-41 by repeated coating on the ceramic disk directs to reduce the porosity and pore size from 47% to 23% and 1.0 to $0.173{\mu}m$, respectively. Moreover, the potential of the fabricated MCM-41 membrane was investigated by ultrafiltration of $Fe^{3+}$ from aqueous stream at various influencing parameters such as applied pressure, initial feed concentration and pH of solution. The maximum rejection 85% was obtained at applied pressure of 276 kPa and the initial feed concentration of 250 ppm at pH 2.

Submicron colloidal silica coated with ceria were prepared by mixing of silica and nano ceria particles and modified by hydrothermal reaction. The polishing efficiency of the ceria coated silica slurry was tested over oxide film on silicon wafer. By changing the polishing pressure in the range of $140{\sim}420g/cm^2$ with the ceria coated silica slurries in $100{\sim}300nm$, rates, WIWNU and friction force were measured. The removal rate was in the order of 200, 100, and 300 nm size silica coated with ceria. It was known that the smaller particle size gives the higher removal rate with higher contact area in Cu slurry. In the case of oxide film, the indentation volume as well as contact area gives effect on the removal rate depending on the size of abrasives. The indentation volume increase with the size of abrasive particles, which results to higher removal rate. The highest removal rate in 200 nm silica core coated with ceria is discussed as proper combination of indentation and contact area effect.

In this study, the technologies and regulations for distributing standing column well(SCW) ground source heat pump systems to the residential cluster homes were investigated. They have only been installed in the public or commercial building having different load pattern and site structure compared with the residential cluster homes. Some of SCWs for the residential cluster homes should be installed under the basement due to a lack of site area. There are pressure differences between the SCWs installed under ground surface and basement. It is needed to develop the technology or devices to prevent overflow caused by pressure difference among the SCWs. In addition, heat balance algorithm between SCWs should be adopted to maximize the system efficiency. A heat pump having heating, cooling, hot water, heating-hot water, and cooling-hot water modes should be developed for adopting an individual air-conditioning system to the residential cluster homes.

Kaolinite was synthesized through th acid treatment of mixture which consisted of psudoboehmite and colloidal silica in hydrothermal reaction at $213^{\circ}C$ under autogeneous vapor pressure. Crystallization process was characterized by X-ray powder diffraction pattern, IR spectra and Hinckley index was calculated. The synthesis in acidic solution promotes the dissolution of the starting materials and leads to crystallization of kaolinite. The rate of crystallization to kaolinite and stacking defect were found to e affected by kind of anion, acidity and starting materials.

A test unit for Organic Rankine Cycle (ORC) power generation system was developed and experimentally reviewed the performance of the ORC system. Two different organic fluids (R-245fa & Novec 649) were tested as working fluids for the system. System behavior was measured and analyzed along with the variables, such as temperature, pressure, rpm and shaft power. It is one of the findings that Novec 649 fluid is to be less pressurized than R-245fa in order to up to the heat source (boiler) capacity, that limits the experiment as high as 2 kW in shaft power.

This study presents analysis of the experimental data meeting conditions of several applications in real time. The results of this experimental study are as follows: Respectively in cooling and heating performance, a refrigerant charge tank can take automatic control of variation of the refrigerant quantity by controling pressure and temperature of system and outlet water temperature. The COP shows 3.5 in cooling operation and 3.2 in heating operation. The refrigerant quantity increases 0.69 kJ/h. When the outdoor temperature decreases $1^{\circ}C$, Therefore if the temperature become lower from $25^{\circ}C$ to $-16^{\circ}C$, the refrigerant quantity increases about 9.5%. Compared to the normal state experiment results, the COP in automatic control of the refrigerant quantity rises roughly 10%.

It is a fundamental study for the hardened bodies of $CaO-SiO_2-H_2O$ system to clear up various physical properties and structures of the products, using the Seosan quartz and $Ca(OH)_2$(C. P. grade) as raw materials. Various samples were obtained by varying $CaO/SiO_2$ mole ratio (0.3∼2.1) and hydrothermal conditions ($100∼220^{\circ}C$ and 2∼14hr.) within the given limit. It was found that tobermorite phase as hydrate is contained in the hardened bodies and that the development of crystal has a great influence on the strengths and other physical properties of hardened bodies.

The fine Co powder with an average particle sie of less than 1$\mu\textrm{m}$ was prepared by hydrothermal reduction with hydrogen from Co(OH)2 slurry obtained by mixing the solutons of CoSO4$.$7H2O and NaOH. A method to control pH of the end solution around neutrality was proposed. The reduction rate was found to be a function of pH, temperature, hydrogen pressure and the amount of catalyst.

Statement of problem: Ti-6Al-7Nb alloy is used instead of Ti-6Al-4V alloy that was known to have toxicity. Purpose: This study was performed to investigate the effect of electrolyte concentration on the surface characteristics of anodized and hydrothermally-treated Ti-6Al-7Nb alloy Materials and methods: Discs of Ti-6Al-7Nb alloy of 20 mm in diameter and 2 mm in thickness were polished sequentially from #300 to 1,000 SiC paper ultrasonically washed with acetone and distilled water for 5 min, and dried in an oven at $50^{\circ}C$ for 24 hours. Anodizing was performed at current density $30mA/cm^2$ up to 300 V in electrolyte solutions containing $\beta-glycerophosphate$ disodium salt hydrate $(\beta-GP)$ and calcium acetate (CA). Hydrothermal treatment was conducted by high pressure steam at $300^{\circ}C$ for 2 hours using a autoclave. All samples were soaked in the Hanks' solution with pH 7.4 at $36.5^{\circ}C$ for 30 days. Results and conclusion: The results obtained were summarized as follows: 1. After hydrothermal treatment, the precipitated HA crystals showed the dense fine needle shape. However, with increasing the concentration of electrolyte they showed the shape of thick and short rod. 2. When the dense fine needle shape crystals was appeared after hydrothermal treatment, the precipitation of HA crystals in Hanks' solution was highly accelerated. 3. The crystal structures of $TiO_2$ in anodic oxide film were composed of strong anatase peak and weak rutile peak as analyzed with thin-film X-ray diffractometery. 4. The Ca/P ratio of the precipitated HA layer was equivalent to that of HA crystal in Hanks' solution.

Magnesium hydroxide sulfate hydrate ($5Mg(OH)_2.MgSO_4{\cdot}3H_2O$, abbreviated 513 MHSH) whiskers were synthesized using MgO and $MgSO_4.7H_2O$ as reactants without addition of basic solution. Previously, MHSH whiskers were prepared by hydrothermal method using $MgSO_4$ in aqueous ammonia. In this work, for the first time, we synthesized a high purity MHSH via ambient pressure. In addition, a high molar ratio of $MgSO_4$ : MgO is an important key to the formation of high purity MHSH. Also, it was possible to prepare whiskers with high aspect ratio using an increasing reaction time in the reaction between the remaining $SO_4^{2-}$ ions and the ${Mg(OH)_6}^{4-}$ fragment, finally producing one-dimensional whiskers.
