The concentration of fresh gel from Aloe vera L. by using ulfrafiltration (UF) process was investigated and analyzed. The two membranes (organic and ceramic) with different molecular weight cut-off (MWCO) and modules (flat sheet and tubular) was used. Under optimum operation conditions, ceramic (zirconium dioxide) tubular membrane with MWCO of 50 kDa resulted in higher flux, less fouling, more turbid, higher total solid, higher polysaccharide and less aloin content. Optimum operation conditions were transmembrane pressure of 1.0 bar, feed velocity of 240 L/hr and temperature of $23^{\circ}C$. Volume concentration factor of aloe gel was 3.13 at permeate flux of $51.1\;L/m^2{\cdot}hr$ after processing time of 1.66 hr. Aloin in fresh aloe gel by UF process was effectively removed as permeate and bioactive polysaccharide content was 2.1 times higher than that of fresh aloe gel. These results allowed a very good level of concentration degree and polysaccharide content. Thus, ultrafiltration process of this study was suitable for the concentration of fresh aloe gel though the aloe concentrate showed both the viscosity decrease and partially separation of liquid layer during storage at $4^{\circ}C$.

The objective of this work is to analyze the atomization and evaporation characteristics of dimethyl ether(DME) fuel for the application of HCCI diesel engine. In order to investigate the spray behavior of DME fuel, the macroscopic and microscopic characteristics were investigated in terms of spray development, spray tip penetration, impingement time, SMD, and axial mean velocity under the various injection timing and ambient conditions. For the illumination of spray, the spray visualization system was composed of a Nd:YAG laser and an ICCD camera and laser-sheet method was used. The atomization characteristics of DME fuel are analyzed by using phase Doppler particle analyzer (PDPA) system It was reveal that the spray development of DME is slower and rapidly disappeared as elapsed time after start of injection at the same injection duration. The impingement timing of diesel fuel was fester than that of DME fuel. The comparison of spray atomization characteristics in both fuels shows that diesel fuel has a large SMD value that DME.

A particle flow visualization, electrostatic charging measurement and separation of triboelectrically charged particles in the external electric field by a fluidized bed tribocharger are conducted for the removal of PVC particles from mixed waste plastics. The laboratory-scale triboelectrostatic separation system consists of the fluidized bed tribocharger, a separation chamber, a collection chamber and a controller. PVC and PET particles can be imparted negative and positive surface charges respectively due to the difference of triboelectric charging series between particles and particles in the fluidized bed tribocharger, and can be separated by passing them through an external electric field. To visualize these charged particles, He-Ne laser is used with cylindrical lenses to generate a sheet beam. In the charging measurement, the particle motion analysis system (PMAS), capable of determining particle velocity and diameter. is used to non-intrusively measure particle behavior in high strength electric field. The average charge-to-mass ratios of PVC and PET particles are $1.4\;and\;1.2{\mu}C/kg$, respectively. The highly concentrated PVC (91.9%) can be recovered with a yield of about 96.1% from the mixture of PVC and PET materials for a single-stage processing. The triboelectrostatic separation system using the fluidized tribocharger shows the potential to be an effective method for removing PVC from mixed plastics for waste plastic recycling.

분리막 생물반응기에서 산기량 제어는 반응기 내 유체흐름과 특히 막표면 근방에서의 전단응력을 변화시켜 막오염 감소 및 에너지 절약을 구현하는 중요 독립변수 중 하나이다. 본 연구에서는 원통형 생물 반응기 중심에 침지형 평막을 장착하고 하부에서 공기가 공급되는 3차원적 시스템에 대하여 "COMSOL"프로그램을 사용하여 수치해석하였다. 용액의 점도, 온도는 일정하다고 가정했으며 투과액 부피와 산기량의 비인 $SAD_p$를 변수로 사용하였다. 유속센서, 동영상 이미지분석으로 측정한 유속과 수치해석 결과는 11% 이내에서 일치함을 확인하였다. 반응기 내 유체의 흐름은 산기관과 막모듈 구간에서 급격하게 증가하였으나 막모듈을 지나면서 감소하였으며 반응조 벽에서 중심축 방향으로 갈수록 유속이 증가하는 경향을 보였다. 막 표면에서 계산된 전단응력은 하단 중앙부가 가장 크게 나타났으며 산기량이 증가할수록 전단응력이 증가하였다. 특히 산기량을 0.15에서 0.25 L/min로 증가할 경우 크게 증가함을 확인할 수 있었다.

고속회전 시험장치를 이용하여 V 형태의 회전식 연료 노즐의 오리피스 직경에 따른 분사특성을 파악하기 위한 연구를 수행하였다. 시험장치는 고속 회전장치, 연료공급장치, 아크릴 케이스로 구성하였다. 분무 오리피스의 직경과 회전속도를 변화시켜가며 분무실험을 수행하였다. 분무입자의 크기 및 속도 측정은 PDPA(Phase Doppler Particle Analyzer) 시스템을 사용하였고, Nd-Yag Laser를 이용하여 분무특성을 가시화하였다. 실험결과, 분무오리피스의 직경이 커질수록 분무입자의 크기가 작아졌으며, 분무입자 크기가 가장 작은 값을 보이는 분무오리피스의 한계 직경이 존재하였다. 오리피스의 직경이 이 한계직경 보다 클 경우 분무입자의 크기는 더 이상 감소하지 않았다. 이것은 분무 오리피스의 직경이 한계직경보다 커질 경우 오리피스 내의 액막이 균일하게 분포하지 않기 때문으로 판단된다.

Wall interactions of direct injection spray were investigated using laser-sheet imaging, shadowgraphy, wetted footprint and phase Doppler interferometry techniques. A narrow-cone high-pressure swirl injector is used to inject iso-octane fuel onto a plate, which has three different impact angles inside a pressurized chamber. Heated air and plate conditions were compared with unheated cases. Injection interval was also varied in the heated case to compare dry- and wet- wall impingement behaviors. High-speed macroscopic Mie-scattering images showed that presence of wall and air temperature has only minor effect on the bulk spray structure and penetration speed for the narrow-cone injector tested. The overall bulk motions of the spray plume and its spatial position at a given time are basically unaffected until a few millimeters before impacting the wall. The surface properties of the impact surface, such as the temperature, the presence of a preexisting liquid film also have a small effect on the amount of wetting or the wetted footprint; however, they have strong influence on what occurs just after impact or after a film is formed. The shadowgraph in particular shows that the plate temperature has a significant effect on vapor phase propagation. Generally, 10-20% faster horizontal vapor phase propagation is observed along the wall at elevated temperature condition. For impingement onto a preexisting film, more splash and evaporation were also observed. Contrary to some preconceptions, there is no significant splashing and droplet rebounding from surfaces that are interposed in the path of the DI gasoline spray, especially for the oblique impact angle cases. There also appears to be a dense spray front consists of large sac spray droplets in the oblique impact angle cases. The bulk of the spray is not impacted on the surface, but rather is deflected by it The microscopic details as depicted by phase Doppler measurements show that the outcome of the droplet impaction events can be significantly influenced. Only droplets at the spray front have high enough Weber numbers for wall impact to wet, splash or rebound. Using the sign of vertical velocity, the time-resolved downward droplets and upward droplets are compared. The Weber number of upward moving droplets, which seldom exceeds unity, also decreases as the impact angle decreases, as the droplets tend to impact less and move along the wall in the deflected spray plume.
