As an insulator for a thin film transistor(TFT) and an encapsulation material of organic light emitting diode(OLED), aluminum oxide (Al₂O₃) has been widely studied using several technologies. Especially, in spite of low deposition rate, atomic layer deposition (ALD) has been used as a process method of Al₂O₃ because of its low process temperature and self-limiting reaction. In the Al₂O₃ deposition by ALD method, Ar Purge had some crucial effects on the film properties. After reaction gas is injected as a formation of pulse, an inert argon(Ar) purge gas is injected for gas desorption. Therefore, the process parameter of Ar purge gas has an influence on the ALD deposited film quality. In this study, Al₂O₃ was deposited on glass substrate at a different Ar purge time and its structural characteristics were investigated and analyzed. From the results, the growth rate of Al₂O₃ was decreased as the Ar purge time increases. The surface roughness was also reduced with increasing Ar purge time. In order to obtain the high quality Al₂O₃ film, it was known that Ar purge times longer than 15 sec was necessary resulting in the self-limiting reaction.

Experimental Study was carried out for benzene desorption by purge gas or evacuation in an activated carbon bed. As purge gas flow rate increased, desorption rate increased due to the higher interstitial linear gas velocity. For various purge gas flow rates, desoption curves almost got together if they were plotted against dimensionless time. At a higher flow rate, mass transfer zone became narrower. Temperature drop in the bed was more fast and severe at higher flow rates and higher outer temperature. It was found out that desorption was almost completed when the temperature in the drop of the bed returned to the initial temperature before temperature drop. Desorption by vacuum purge was completed in shorter time than desorption by purge gas. Countercurrent purge was more effective than cocurrent purge.

This paper presents experimental results carried out on the purge characteristic of the anodic dead-end mode fuelcell and how to improve the cell performance by pulsation effects. The dead-end mode fuelcell has some merits that a fuel supplying device is not needed and the cell power is higher than that in the open mode fuelcell. However, the purge is necessary for preventing the porous media from being flooded by liquid water formed in the channel. At this time, the un-reacted fuel is discharged with the liquid water together in purge process. The discharged fuel can make the fuel efficiency lower. Therefore, the number of purge times should be decreased for the better fuel efficiency. In this study, the outlet of the anode channel was equipped with a purge solenoid valve and a pulsation generator. The purge times was decreased when the current density decreased and operation pressure increased without the pulsation effects. In addition, when the pulsation effects such as various frequencies or amplitudes were applied, purge times was alleviated up to 40%.

Semiconductor industry has been dramatically developed with the information era of 21C, and the trend now is to consider that the technology of management system of the computer utility that has a high efficiency is important. This study investigated the intelligent decision system for residual gas purge process to effectively remove the residual gas in the tube after replacing the cylinder that is used for the gas cabinet or BSGS(Bulk Specialty Gas Supply System) of the semiconductor process. It was suggest from this study that it is possible to decide the type, frequency and volume of purge gas using various toxic gases which is necessary for each process. Also, this result will be utilized for operating the system, increasing the efficiency of management and saving energy.

The objective of this study is to optimize the four-bed six-step pressure swing adsorption(PSA) process for high purity $CH_4$ recovery from the biogas. The effects of P/F(purge to feed) ratio and cycle time on the process performance were evaluated. The cyclic steady-states of PSA process were reached after 12 cycles. The purity and recovery rate of product gas, pressure and temperature changes were constant as the cycle repeated. It was shown that the P/F ratio gave significant effect on the product recovery rate by increasing the amount of purge gas in purge and regeneration step. The optimal P/F ratio was found to be 0.08. As the cycle time increased, the product purity decreased by increasing the feed gas flow rate. It was found that the optimal operating conditions were P/F ratio of 0.08 and total cycle time of 1,440 seconds with the purity of 97%.

Dynamic headspace purge conditions were investigated to obtain minimum loss of high volatile compounds by breakthrough and maximum recovery of low volatile components of roasted perilla seed oil (RPSO). A response surface methodology was applied to evaluate the effect of purge temperature, purge time, and sample weight on $\ell$ n (total peak area), breakthrough ratio, and peak area of perilla ketone the least volatile component of RPSO. Sample weight was the most important factor on the $\ell$ n (total peak area) but it did not affect peak area of perilla ketone. All process variables significantly influenced breakthrough ratio. The optimum condition was determined by superimposing contour plots at purge temperature of 48$^{\circ}C$ for 12 min purge time at sample weight of 0.60 g. 2-Propanone, 2-butanone, acetic acid, 2-methyl propanal were main breakthrough compounds in RPSO flavor.

In this study, we performed numerical simulation for the catalyst regeneration process of diesel desulfurization reactor. We analyzed the changes in regeneration process according to purge gas flow rate, catalyst permeability, reactor size, and heat loss of reactor. We have found that the regeneration process is very much affected by temperature changes whereas it is hardly affected by catalyst permeability and porosity. We also estimated the regeneration time according to purge gas flow rate and initial temperatures and have found that increasing purge gas temperature is more effect for fast regeneration. The present results can be utilized to design a regeneration process of diesel desulfurization reactor for a fuel cell used in ships. Furthermore, the present work also can be used to design low sulfur diesel supply in oil refineries and therefore contribute to the development of clean petrochemical technology.
