A laboratory experiment was performed to investigate simultaneous removal of phosphorus and nitrogen from raw sewage by intermittently aerated activated sludge process packed with aluminum and silver plate. Two continuous experimental process, i.e. an intermittently aerated activated sludge process, and an intermittently aerated activated sludge process with an aluminum and silver plate packed into the reactor were compared. The pitting corrosion of aluminum does not affect the performance of the biological treatment. The amounts of Al eluted from aluminum plate 17 mg to 60.6 mg in this experimental conditions, and Al/P mole ratio were from 3.31 to 11.25. The total nitrogen removal efficiency in Run E were $60.6\%$ at the HRT of 12 hours. The effluent $PO_4-P$ concentration as low as $1.0\;mg/\iota$ could have been obtained during the continuous experiment in Run E at HRT of 12 hours.

Calcium metaphosphate (CMP) nanofibers with a diameter of ${\sim}600nm$ were prepared using electrospun CMP/polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) fibers through a process of drying for 5 h in air followed by annealing for 1 h at $650^{\circ}C$ in a vacuum. The viscosity of the CMP/PVP precursor containing 0.15 g/ml of PVP was 76 cP. Thermal analysis results revealed that the fibers were crystallized at $569^{\circ}C$. The crystal phase of the as-annealed fiber was determined to be ${\delta}-CMP\;({\delta}-Ca(PO_3)_2)$. However, the morphology of the fibers changed from smooth and uniform (as-spun fibers) to linked-particle characteristics with a tubular form most likely due to the decomposition of the inner PVP matrix. It is expected that this large amount of available surface area has the potential to provide unusually high bioactivity and fast responses in clinical hard tissue applications.

시스템 패킷 인터페이스 4레벨 2단계(System Packet Interface Leve1 4 Phase 2)는 10Gbps 이더넷 응용뿐만 아니라, OC-192 대역폭의 ATM 및 POS를 통한 패킷 또는 셀 전송을 위한 물리계층과 링크계층 소자간의 인터페이스이다. 본 논문에서는 시스템 패킷 인터페이스 4레벨 2단계(SPI-4.2)에 대한 연구와 C언어를 이용한 성능평가를 토대로 모듈을 VHDL언어를 이용하여 설계하였다. 성능평가시 확인된 짧은 패킷이 유입되었을 때 PCW와 다음 PCW의 거리를 16바이트 이상을 유지하기 위해 ICW가 삽입되어 많은 오버헤드를 발생시켰다. 작은 패킷이 유입되었을 때 오버헤드를 최소화하기 위해 ICW생성을 최대한 제한하게 설계하여 짧은 패킷 유입시의 오버헤드를 감소하는 SPI-4.2 인터페이스 수신부 모듈을 설계하였다. 설계한 모듈은 라인당 720Mbps를 지원하여 총 대역폭이 11.52Gb/s의 전송률을 나타내어 더욱 안정적으로 패킷을 인터페이스 할 수 있다. XilinxISE 5.1i 툴을 이용하여 VHDL언어로 설계하였고, Model_SIM 5.6a를 이용하여 시뮬레이션 하였다. SPI-4.2 인터페이스 모듈은 기가비트/테라비트 라우터, 광학 크로스바 스위치 및 SONET/SDH 기반의 수신 시스템에서 라인카드로 사용할 경우 적합할 것으로 사료된다.

Palm oil mill effluent (POME) was produced in huge amounts in Malaysia, and if it discharged into the environment, it causes a serious problem regarding its high content of nutrients and high levels of COD and BOD concentrations. This study was devoted on POME treatment and purification using an integrated process consisting of microalgae treatment followed by membrane filtration. The main objective was to find the optimum conditions as retention time and pH in the biological treatment of POME. Since after the optimum conditions there is a diverse effect of time and the process become costly. According to our knowledge, there is no existing study optimized the retention time and percentage removal of nutrients for microalgae treatment of POME wastewater. In order to achieve with optimization, a second order polynomial model regression coefficients and goodness of fit results in removal percentages of ammonia nitrogen ($NH_3-N$), orthophosphorous ($PO_4{^{-3}}$), COD, TSS, and turbidity were estimated. WinQSB technique was used to optimize the objective function of the developed model, and the optimum conditions were found. Also, ultrafiltration membrane is useful for purification of POME samples as verified by experiments.

Effects of corrosion inhibitors (i.e., sodium nitrite, sodium hexametaphosphate, trimethylamine (TEA), sugar, and urea) on the corrosion resistance of carbon steel in CaCl₂ solution were investigated. The test solution was designed with response surface methodology of design of experiments (DOE) in the range of 0 ~ 50 ppm for NaNO₂, 0 ~ 200 ppm for (NaPO₃)₆, 0 ~ 2000 ppm for TEA, 0 ~ 3000 ppm for sugar, 0 ~ 200 ppm for urea with 3 wt% CaCl₂. The corrosion potential and the corrosion rate were measured with potentiodynamic polarization tests and analyzed statistically to find main effects of inhibitor concentrations and interactions between them. As a result, hexametaphosphate was the most effective compound in reducing the corrosion rate. Sugar also reduced the corrosion rate significantly possibly because it covered the surface effectively with a high molecular weight. The inhibiting action of sugar was found to be enhanced by adding trimethylamine into the solution. Nevertheless, trimethylamine did not appear to be effective in inhibiting corrosion by itself. However, urea and sodium nitrite showed almost no inhibition on corrosion resistance of steel.

Al and Zn are used to protect the steel structures from corrosion. In the present studies, 15Al-85Zn alloy wires has been used for the deposition of coating by arc thermal spray process. Moreover, this process of coating exhibited severe defects formation, therefore, this coating was post-treated with different concentrations i.e. 0.05, 0.1 and 0.5M sodium hexa meta phosphate (Na6[(PO3)6]: SHMP) to fill to defects of deposited coatings and assessed their corrosion resistance in 3.5 wt.% NaCl solution with exposure periods. After the treatment, the porosity of the coating reduced significantly by formation of composite oxide films onto the coating surface. Initially, 0.5 M SHMP treated coating exhibited highest in total impedance due to significant reduction of porosity but once the exposure periods are extended, the composite oxides are dissolved, thus, total impedance is decreased.

On highly-textured IBAD-MgO templates, we have tried to find proper buffer layers among various candidate materials, including $LaMnO_3$ (LMO), $La_2Zr_2O_7$ (LAO), $LaAlO_3$ (LAO), $LaGaO_3$ (LGO), $NdGaO_3$ (NGO), and $BaZrO_3$ (BZO). All buffer layers were deposited on the IBAD-MgO templates by KrF pulsed laser deposition(PLD). LAO layer showed an armorphous phase. LZO, LGO, and NGO layers showed polycrystalline growth. Only LMO and BZO layers exhibited c-axis oriented biaxially textured films. Optimally processed LMO buffer layer at deposition temperature of $750^{\circ}C$ and $PO_2$ of 100mTorr exhibited ${\triangle}{\phi}$ value of ${\sim}-5.2^{\circ}$ and RMS roughness of 5.6nm. Interestingly, BZO buffer layers with ${\triangle}{\phi}$ values of ${\sim}-6^{\circ}$ could be routinely produced over a wide PLD processing condition.

Control effects of phosphorous acid were investigated on three diseases. For Phytophthora blight of red pepper, protective and curative effects of phosphorous acid at the concentration of $1,408{\mu}g$ a. i./mL were 91.0% and 80.0%, respectively. In case of late blight of tomato, caused by Phytophthora infestans, protective and curative effects were 63.4% and 13.0% at the same concentration, respectively. However, the protective and curative effects of phosphorous acid increased by decreasing inoculum density of Phytophthora infestans. The protective effects of phosphorous acid on control of Phytophthora blight of red pepper was persisted for 4 days with high control efficacy (94.0%). The protective and curative effects of phosphorous acid ($1,408{\mu}g$ a. i./mL) on cucumber downy mildew were 82.0% and 62.0% respectively. The foliar application of phosphorous acid also promoted shoot growth and fresh weight of red pepper.

A study was conducted to obtain optimal mycelial growth conditions of Pleurotus eryngii. Mycelial growth was best on medium Lilly, temperature $25{\sim}30^{\circ}C$, and pH 6.0. Optimal carbon sources were $3{\sim}4%$ glucose and 5% dextrin. Casamino acid 0.12% in medium was good for mycelial growth as a nitrogen source.
