In order to investigate $SO_2$ removal, PEI hollow fiber membranes were produced by a dry-wet phase inversion method. The membrane support layer on surface was coated with PEBAX1657$^{(R)}$ and PEG blending materials. Modules were prepared for the single gas permeation characteristics of composite membrane according to temperature and pressure. As a result, $SO_2$ permeance and $SO_2/N_2$ selectivity were 220~1220 GPU and 100~506 through operating condition, respectively. Moreover, $SO_2/CO_2/N_2$ mixture gas was used to compare the performance of separation properties according to temperature, pressure and retentate flow rate difference. $SO_2$ removal efficiency was increased with pressure and temperature.

Separation and determinations of Co(II) and Ni(II) ions as their 4-(2-pyridylazo)resorcinol(PAR) chelates by reversed-phase capillary high-performance liquid chromatography(RP-CpHPLC) were performed. Among many capillary columns, Vydac C4 column was selected and acetonitrile solution was used as mobile phase. The effect of pH and MeCN concentration(%) on the retention factor, k and peak intensity was examined and discussed. As a results, it was found that 22.5% MeCN and pH 5.60 was adequate as mobile phase for the separation of the two metal ions and determination of Co(II) ion, but the mobile phase condition for Ni(II) ion determination was 22.5% MeCN of pH 7.20. Detection limit(D.L., S/N=3) of Co(II) and Ni(II) ions were $2.0{\times}10{-7}$ M(14.9 ppb) and $1.0{\times}10{-6}$ M(59.2 ppb), respectively.

Optimal extraction, separation, and capillary rinsing conditions for capillary electrophoresis (CE) were established to identify the cultivation site (domestic vs. foreign) of Job's-tears (Coix lachrymajobi var. mayuen) using 240 samples (domestic sample n = 121, foreign sample n = 119). Job's-tears was extracted with 30% ethanol and separated on a $50-{\mu}m-I.D.$ untreated fused-silica capillary. Optimal analytic conditions were: temperature, $45^{\circ}C$; voltage, 15 kV; detector rise time, 0.1 sec; and pressure injection, 20 sec. Separation of peak investigated using 0.1 M phosphate buffer (pH 2.5) containing 0.05% hydroxypropylmethylcellulose (P buffer) revealed the optimal separation buffer was P buffer containing 26 mM hexane sulfonic acid with 30% methanol. Under the optimal conditions established for CE, the average correct identification percentage of domestic or foreign Job's-tears was 82%.

Water is removed from crude oil containing water by using oil separator. This study aims to develop a three-dimensional (3D) Eulerian computational fluid dynamics (CFD) model to predict the separation efficiency of air-water-oil separator. In the incompressible, isothermal and unsteady-state CFD model, air is defined as continuous phase, and water and oil are given as dispersed phase. The momentum equation includes the drag force, lift force and resistance force of porous media. The standard k-${\varepsilon}$ model is used for turbulence flow. The exit pressures of water and oil play an important role in determining the liquid level of the oil separator. The exit pressures were identified to be 6.3 kPa and 5.1 kPa for water and oil, respectively, to keep a liquid level of 25 cm at a normal operating condition. The time evolution of volume fractions of air, water and oil was investigated. The settling velocities of water and oil along the longitudinal separator distance were analyzed, when the oil separator reached a steady-state. The oil separation efficiency obtained from the CFD model was 99.85%, which agreed well with experimental data. The relatively simple CFD model can be used for the modification of oil separator structure and finding optimal operating conditions.

The change of structure and morphology in ( $U_{0.913}$G $d_{0.087}$) $O_2$ during oxidation at 475$^{\circ}C$ and heat treatment at 130$0^{\circ}C$ in air were investigated using XRD, SEM, and EPMA. The ( $U_{0.913}$G $d_{0.087}$) $O_2$ cubic phase converted to ( $U_{0.913}$G $d_{0.087}$)$_3$ $O_{8}$ orthorhombic phase by oxidation at 475$^{\circ}C$ in air. The XRD and EPMA result of the 130$0^{\circ}C$ heat treated powder revealed that ( $U_{0.913}$G $d_{0.087}$)$_3$ $O_{8}$ orthorhombic phase was separated into $U_3$ $O_{8}$ and ( $U_{0.67}$G $d_{0.33}$) $O_{2+}$x/ cubic phase. The weight variations of (U,Gd) $O_2$ with various Gd contents were measured using TGA at the same heat treated condition. The weight variation during the heat treatment of Gd dissolve (U,Gd) $O_2$ in air can be expressed in terms of phase reaction equations related with oxidation and phase separation. Based on these phase reaction, a initial content of Gd dissolved in (U,Gd) $O_2$ can be exactly calculated by measuring the weight change during the heat treatment.

In order to effectively isolate the marine wastes with an effluent standard, the pretreatment process is required to isolate solid materials from the liquid-solid mixed wastes. The more effective the pretreatment becomes, the more processing capacity of posttreatment will be improved and process facilities will be downsized. In this paper, we suggested the vibrating reverse-slant screen, investigated the optimal vibration frequency and vibrator installation angle for the separation of the liquid solid mixed wastes. Several experiments for separation efficiency were conducted under the condition of various vibration frequency($35{\sim}60Hz$, 5Hz interval) and vibrator angle($0^{\circ}$, $30^{\circ}$, $45^{\circ}$, $90^{\circ}$) considering the crack of screen. The screen inclination angle is set up the gradient as $3^{\circ}{\sim}5^{\circ}$ through the preliminary experiments. Also, we made two types of screen(respectively rectangle and square screen). The separation device has shown the optimum efficiency at vibrator angle $0^{\circ}$ and vibration frequency 60Hz, and has no relation with the shape of screen. And the proposed technology is verified by comparing with quantity of suspended solids before and after filtration.

Physical separation containing grinding, sieving, dry magnetic separation and air classification were carried out in order to recover Ta anode from waste Ta condenser. Roll crusher wat used for the liberation of resin and metals in closed circuit system. The liberation between Ta anode and resin was easily achieved, whereat some of metals did not liberated from the Ta anode when the waste condenser was crushed below 8 mesh. When the crushed sample were divided into 8/10 mesh, 10/18 mesh and -18 mesh, metals was mainly remained in 8/10 mesh in contrast to Ta anode was in +18 mesh. It was shown that resin was more easily crushed rather than metals from the result of that resin content was 71.5％ in -18 mesh. The liberation efficiency was different with the input size of the crushed sample and average efficiency was 62.3% due to the locked Ta anode particles. The results of air classification test for the crushed samples showed that optimal air flow are 39㎥/h, 32㎥/h, 20㎥/h. respectively. When the sample were separated with optimal condition, 94.45％ Ta anode containing 97.47 wt.％ Ta anode, 0.93 wt.％ resin. 1.61 wt.％ metal was recovered with 49.39 wt.％ yield.

Light Naphtha is distillated from crude oil unit and separated into the methane, ethylene and propylene by boiling point difference in sequence. This separation is conducted using a series of binary-like columns. This separation method is known that the energy consumed in the reboiler is used to separate the heaviest components and most of this energy is discarded as vapor condensation in the overhead cooler. In this study, the first two columns of the separation process are replaced with the Petlyuk column. A structural design was exercised by the stage computation with ideal tray efficiency in equilibrium condition. Compared with the performance of a conventional system of 3-column model, The design outcome shows that the procedure is simple and efficient because the composition of the liquid component in the column tray was designed to be similar to the equilibrium distillation curve. The performance of the new process indicates that an energy saving of 12.1% is obtained and the cost savings of 44 million won per day based on gross domestic product is reduced under same total number of trays and the initial investment cost is saved.

Future electronics such as electronic paper and foldable cellphone are required to be flexible and transparent and should have a high performance. In order to fabricate the flexible electronics using flexibility transfer process, techniques for transferring various devices from rigid substrate onto flexible substrate by elastomeric stamp, have been developed. Adhesion between the elastomeric stamp and various devices is crucial for successful transfer process. The adhesion can be controlled by the thickness of the stamp, separation velocity, contact load, and stamp surface treatment. In this study, we fabricated the bump shape stamp consisting of a UV-curable polymer and investigated the effects of curing condition, separation velocity, and contact load on the adhesion characteristics of bumps. The bumps with hemispherical shape were fabricated using a dispensing process, which is one of the ink-jet printing techniques. Curing conditions of the bumps were controlled by the amount of UV irradiation energy. The adhesion characteristics of bumps are evaluated by adhesion test. The results show that the pull-off forces of bumps were increased and decreased as UV irradiation energy increased. For UV irradiation energies of 300 and 500 mJ/cm², the pull-off forces were increased as the separation velocity increased. The pull-off forces also increased with the increase of contact load. In the case of UV irradiation energy above 600 mJ/cm², however, the pull-off forces were not changed. Therefore, we believe that the bump shape stamp can be applied to roll-based transfer process and selective transfer process as an elastomeric stamp.

Eight species of Korean native lilies were used as plant materials and investigated for the effect of temperature, day length, and sucrose on enlargement of bulblet in vitro. enlargement of bulblet was enhanced at $25^{\circ}C$ in most of Korean native lilies tested, meanwhile it was promoted at $20^{\circ}C$ in L. davuricum and L. hansonii. Moreover, enlargement of bublet was promoted under dark in L. concolor var. parthneion, L. distichum, L. amabile, and L. davuricum, to the contrary fresh weight was increased under longer day length in L. hansonii and L. maximowitzii. That of L. concolor var. parthneion and L. cernuum was not affected by light or dark condition. Fresh weight of the bulblets produced in vitro of most Korean native lilies tested was increased with increasing sucrose concentration and best at $120g{\cdot}L^{-1}$ sucrose in medium. However, enlargement of bublet was promoted by $60g{\cdot}L^{-1}$ sucrose in L. tsingtauense and L. cernuum and by $90g{\cdot}L^{-1}$ in L. davuricum. Bulblet enlargement tended to promote by lower rate of scaly leaf occurrence or separating bulblet and it was affected by occurrence of scaly leaf rather than separation of bulblet. However, occurrence of scaly leaf, separation of bulblet, and enlargement of bulblet were more significantly affected by genetic factors, species rather than culture conditions.
