Multi-pass wet wire drawing process is used to produce fine wire in the industrial field. The production of fine wire through multi-pass wet wire drawing process with appropriate dies pass schedule would be impossible without understanding the relationship among many process parameters such as material properties, dies reduction, friction conditions, drawing speed etc However, in the industrial field, dies pass schedule of multi-pass wet wire drawing process has been executed by trial and error of experts. This study investigated the relationship among many process parameters quantitatively to obtain the important process information fur the appropriate pass schedule of multi-pass wet wire drawing process. Therefore, it is possible to predict the many important process parameters of multi-pass wet wire drawing process such as dies reduction, machine reduction, drawing force, backtension force, slip rate, slip velocity rate, power etc. The validity of the analyzed drawing force was verified by FE simulation and multi-pass wet wire drawing experiment. Also, pass redesign was performed based on the analyzed results, and the wire breakage between the original pass schedule and the redesigned pass schedule was compared through experiment.

To obtain the basic data of the effect of antimicrobic finishing on chrome-tanned leather for apparel, it was studied that the specimens given from each step of manufacturing process, that is, steps before and after neutralization and after fixation were treated with Si-QAC as a antimicrobic finishing agent, and the antimicrobic activity was evaluated. The results were as follows: 1. The bacterial reduction of the specimens finished antimicrobically were 100% and 94.4% before and after neutralization respectively, however, the specimens carried out successive process after antimicrobic finishing exhibited the reduction of 16.5% and 14.8%. It was assumed that the antimicrobic agent was washed off by the successive process. 2. When the antimicrobic finishing was carried out on the specimens after fixation the bacterial reduction was 95.0% and then the specimen carried out successive process was 97.3%. This result indicates that antimicrobic finishing on the leather would be given after fixation rather than before and after neutralization.

Recently hybrid beam system is widely used because it has many structural advantages such as short construction period and low story height etc. Generally steel wide flange beam exposure type and embedded type hybrid beams are constructed. Even though exposure hybrid beam is easily constructed, the fire proofing protection process is necessary because steel wide flange beam cannot resist to fire itself. Story height reduction type hybrid beam, which is introduced hybrid beam in this paper, does not need fire proofing protection process because it is constructed as a fully embedded type hybrid beam. Developed construction process and actual construction cases of story height reduction type hybrid beam were introduced in this study.

A skeletal mechanism of coal combustion was derived from a detailed coal combustion kinetic mechanism through an importance analysis of chemical pathways. The reduction process consists of roughly two parts. The first process is performed based on a connectivity analysis between species. In this process, DRGEPSA is chosen for reduction process. Strongly connected species and related reactions from the important species set as start species by the operator are sorted into the reduced mechanism. About 70% of species and reactions can be removed with a limited accuracy loss. Subsequently the second reduction process, CSP, is performed. This method focuses on an importance of each reaction and can reduce a volume of mechanism appropriately. Through these analyses, a skeletal mechanism is generated that is including 65 species and 150 reactions. The generated skeletal mechanism is verified through a comparison with the detailed mechanism in the homogeneous reactor model of CHEMKIN-PRO under wide range of conditions. The generated mechanism can give an advantage in the analysis of coal combustion characteristics in detail in large scale simulations such as LES and DNS.

Combination of oxidative vacuum annealing and oxygen plasma treatment can serve as a simple and efficient method of line-width modification of imprinted nanopatterns. Since the vacuum annealing and oxygen plasma could lead mass loss of polymeric materials, either one of the process can yield a narrowed patterns. However, the vacuum annealing process usually demands quite high temperatures (${\geq}300^{\circ}C$) and extended annealing time to get appreciable line-width reduction. Although the plasma treatment may be considered as an effective low temperature rapid process for the line-width reduction, it is also suffering for the lowered controllability on application to very fine patterns. We have found that the vacuum annealing temperature can be lowered by introducing the oxygen in the vacuum process and that the combination of oxygen plasma treatment with the vacuum annealing could yield the best result in the line-with reduction of the imprinted polymeric nanopatterns. Well-defined line width reduction by more than 50% was successfully demonstrated at relatively low temperatures. Furthermore, it was verified that this process was applicable to the nanopatterns of different shapes and materials.

Niobium powder was made from potassium heptafluoroniobite ($K_2NbF_7$) as the raw material using sodium (Na) as a reducing agent based on the hunter process. The apparatus for the experiment was designed and built specifically for the present study. The niobium particle size greatly increased as the reduction temperature increased from $710^{\circ}C$ to $800^{\circ}C$. The particle size was fairly uniform, varying from $0.09{\mu}m$ to $0.4{\mu}m$ depending on the reduction temperatures. The niobium powder morphology and particle size are very sensitive to a reaction temperature in the metallothermic reduction process. The yield of niobium powder increased from 55% to 80% with a increasing a reaction temperature.

The aim of this study is to develop an eco-friendly reduction process of indigo as an alternative choice. Hansenula misumaiensis was used and their reducing activity toward synthetic indigo as well as natural indigo was estimated by dyeing test in terms of indigo dye uptake. The changes in K/S value and pH were monitored on the time-based measurements. Also, reduction duration was evaluated. On the basis of the results described in this study, it was confirmed that Hansenula misumaiensis reduced indigo. Reducing power of Hansenula misumaiensis reached to maximum in two days. It can be possible to develop eco-friendly process of indigo reduction using Hansenula misumaiensis by the optimization of strain culture conditions and the optimization of reduction conditions.

A high-speed reduction transfer case is usually employed by an excavator, wheel loader, or bulldozer. When powerful torque is required in the case of climbing steep roads or towing heavy equipment, the high-speed reduction mode of the gearbox is used. Generally, a transfer case using a spur gear type with a speed reduction system has a speed reduction ratio of 1 to 1 or 2 to 1. However, the structure of a transfer case achieved at a high speed of 1 to 1 and a low speed of 4.5 or under 5.5 to 1 with the speed reduction by use of a planetary gear type with a speed reduction system was proposed in this study. By employing a planetary gear type with a speed reduction system, the compact structure of the transfer case was achieved, and the impact or the partial defect of gear teeth was eliminated.

In this work, we describe the reduction kinetics of gold nanoparticles synthesized by plasma discharge in aqueous solutions with varied voltages and precursor (HAuCl₄) concentrations. The reduction rate of [AuCl₄]^- was determined by introducing NaBr to the gold colloidal solution synthesized by plasma discharge, serving as a catalyst in the reduction process. We observed that [AuCl₄]^- was completely reduced when its characteristic absorption peak at 380 nm disappeared, indicating the absence of [AuCl₄]^- for ligand exchange with NaBr. The reduction rate notably increased with the rise in discharge voltage, attributable to the intensified plasma generated by ionization and excitation, which in turn accelerated the reduction kinetics. Regarding precursor concentration, a lower concentration was found to retard the reduction reaction, significantly influencing the reduction kinetics due to the presence of active H⁺ and H radicals. Therefore, the production of strong plasma with high plasma density was observed to enhance the reduction kinetics, as evidenced by optical emission spectroscopy.

In order to reduce salt(as NaCl) contents in food waste and to improve the quality of discharged wastewater produced during the recycling process of food waste for the purpose of compost and feed stuff, a salt reduction process by added water into food waste was developed. The pilot plant with a rotary type salt reduction equipment to manage continuously 0.5 ton food waste per hour was constructed and the efficiency was tested. The amount of added water was calculated by the water content and the efficiency of dewatering process of food waste. Approximately 0.8 liter water per a kilogram of food waste was injected into the reactor in which food waste was pouring simultaneously, then diluted/mixed in a rotary reactor. About 1.1 liter of leachate including added water was generated, but the leachate contained a very high content of organic particles, so most particles were recovered by two step solid-liquid separation process. The first step was a gravitational filtering process using screens with a pore diameter of 1mm, and the second separation process was centrifugal process. Organic quality of food waste which had been desalted was maintained by inputting the entirely recovered organic particles. The efficiency of salt reduction of food waste was estimated by measuring a chloride anion by titration and salinity by a probe. The results by the two different measuring methods were always over 50%, and the quality of final wastewater was improved up to $200mg/{\ell}$ as TS(total solid) by an additional settling process after the two step solid-liquid separation process.
