Peripheral nerve injuries in the oral and maxillofacial regions require nerve repairs for the recovery of sensory and/or motor functions. Primary indications for the peripheral nerve grafts are injuries or continuity defects due to trauma, pathologic conditions, ablation surgery, or other diseases, that cannot regain normal functions without surgical interventions, including microneurosurgery. For the autogenous nerve graft, sural nerve and greater auricular nerve are the most common donor nerves in the oral and maxillofacial regions. The sural nerve has been widely used for this purpose, due to the ease of harvest, available nerve graft up to 30 to 40 cm in length, high fascicular density, a width of 1.5 to 3.0 mm, which is similar to that of the trigeminal nerve, and minimal branching and donor sity morbidity. Many different surgical techniques have been designed for the sural nerve harvesting, such as a single longitudinal incision, multiple stair-step incisions, use of nerve extractor or tendon stripper, and endoscopic approach. For a better understanding of the sural nerve graft and in avoiding of uneventful complications during these procedures as an oral and maxillofacial surgeon, the related surgical anatomies with their harvesting tips are summarized in this review article.

The process of $CO_2$ capture using aqueous Monoethanolamine(MEA) has been considered as one of the leading technologies for intermediate-term strategy to reduce the $CO_2$ emission. This MEA process, however, consumes relatively a large amount of energy in the stripper for absorbent regeneration. For this reason, various process alternatives are recently established to reduce the regeneration energy. This paper suggests a flue gas split configuration as one of MEA process alternatives and then simulates this process using commercial simulator. This flue gas splitting has an effect on reducing the temperature of the lower section of absorber as well as decreasing the absorbent flow rate. Compared to the base model, this optimized flue gas split process provides 6.4% reduction of solvent flow rate and 5.8% reduction of absorbent regeneration energy.

The pre-treatment of natural gas to remove $H_2S$ and $CO_2$ before liquefaction in natural gas processing is required, and amine-based absorption processes are widely used in gas processing. The current study aims to model amine-based absorption process and to find cost-effective design through systematic analysis of energy systems, together with column design. Different design options for absorber and stripper are investigated in a holistic manner, and heat integration technique has been applied to investigate how design of columns is interacted with energy efficiency for the pre-treatment process considered. Case study has been presented to demonstrate the applicability of heat integration method for improving energy efficiency in practice.

2020년까지 대형 CCS (Carbon Capture and Storage) Demo Plant 시장 (100MW 이상) 이 형성될 전망이다. 발전 부문에서 대규모 CCS 실증 프로젝트는 총 44개이며 연소전(41%), 연소후(28%), 순산소(3%) 프로젝트가 계획되어 있다. 순산소 연소 기술은 실증진입단계, 연소후(USC) 기술은 상용화 추진단계, 연소전 (IGCC) 기술은 실증완료 이후 상용화 진입 단계이다. IGCC 발전의 석탄가스화 기술은 타 산업분야에 서 상용화 되어있어 기술신뢰성이 높다. IGCC 단위설비 기술 개발을 통한 성능개선 및 비용절감에 대한 잠재력을 가지고 있기 때문에 미래의 석탄발전기술로 고려되고 있다. IGCC 기술은 가장 상용화에 앞서있지만 아직까지 IGCC+CCS 대형 설비가 운전된 사례가 전 세계적으로 없으며 미국 EPRI 등에서 Feasibility Study 단계이다. 현재 국책과제로 수행중인 300MW급 태안 IGCC 플랜트를 대상으로 향후 CCS 설비를 적용했을 경우에 대해 기술 타당성 검증을 목적으로 IGCC+CCS 모델링을 수행하였다. 모델링은 스크러버 후단의 합성 가스를 대상으로 하였다. Water Gas Shift Reaction (WGSR) 공정 및 Selexol 공정을 구성하여 최종 단에서 수소 연료를 생산할 수 있도록 하였다. WGSR 공정은 Co/Mo 촉매반응기로 구성되었다. WGSR 모델링을 통하여 주입되는 스팀량 (1~2 mol-steam/mol-CO) 및 온도 변화 ($220-550^{\circ}C$)에 따른 CO가스의 전환율을 분석하여 경제적인 설계조건을 선정하였다. Selexol 공정은 $H_2S$ Absorber, $H_2S$ Stripper, $CO_2$ Absorber, $CO_2$ Flash Drum으로 구성된다. Selexol 공정의 $CO_2$와 $H_2S$ 선택도를 분석 하였으며 단위 설비별 설계 조건을 예측하였다. 모델링 결과 59kg/s의 합성가스($137^{\circ}C$, 41bar, 가스 조성은 $CO_2$ 1.2%, CO 57.2%, $H_2$ 23.2%, $H_2S$ 0.02%)가 WGSR Process를 통해 98% CO가 $CO_2$ 로 전환되었다. Selexol 공정을 통해 $H_2S$ 제거율은 99.9%, $CO_2$제거율은 96.4%이었고 14.9kg/s의 $H_2$(86.9%) 연료를 얻었다. 모델링 결과는 신뢰성 검증을 통해 IGCC+CCS 전체 플랜트의 성능예측과 Feasibility Study를 위한 자료로 활용될 예정이다.

To investigate the difference of Texture exhibited on interproximal enamel surface with each different stripping method and the susceptibility of proximal enamel to demineralization after stripping and the application of a topical fluoride go] and sealant, one hundred human premolars, which were Previously extracted for orthodontic reasons were evaluated by means of Scanning electron microscopy and laser fluorescence. The results were as follows : 1. No matter what the initial stripping instrument was the furrows that resulted from all the stripping methods were not completely removed by careful polishing. 2. Among the enamel surfaces that were treated with three different initial abrasive instruments, followed by the same polishing method (Sof-$Lex^{(r)}$ disks), the enamel surfaces that were treated with 700 crosscut carbide bur showed the smoothest surfaces. 3. The stripped teeth, no matter what the initial stripping instrument was, were less resistant to initial demineralization than untreated teeth. But no difference in caries susceptibility according to differently stripped methods was found (p<(0.001). 4. Teeth treated with APF-gel or sealant were mote resistant to demineralization than those treated without other treatment after stripping (p<0.001). 5. Comparing groups treated with APF-gel to groups treated with sealant, the former was more resistant to demineralization than the tatter (p<0.05). In conclusion, enamel surfaces that were stripped jnterproximally were less resistant to demineralization even though various attempts were made to produce smooth, self-cleaning enamel surfaces. Therefore, additional treatment-sealant or calcifying/ fluoridating solution To the stripped enamel surfaces is recommended.

In this study, performance and economic analysis of 500 MWe coal-fired power plant with $CO_{2}$ capture process was performed. For this purpose, chemical absorption method which is commercially available and most suitable for thermal power plant was studied and a criteria for technical and economic assessment of power plants suggested by IEA Greenhouse Gas R&D Programme was used. And we performed the sensitivity analysis focused on regeneration energy which exceed half of the total capture energy. Based on MEA(Monoethanoleamine) as a main chemical solvent and 3.31 GJ/ton$CO_{2}$ regeneration energy in the stripper, net power efficiency was reduced from 41.0% (no capture) to 31.6%(with capture) and the cost of $CO_{2}$ avoided was estimated 43.3 $/ton$CO_{2}$. And in case of 2.0 GJ/ton$CO_{2}$ regeneration energy, the cost of $CO_{2}$ avoided was calculated as 36.7 $/ton$CO_{2}$.

300MW 급 태안 IGCC 가스화 플랜트 및 기존 발전소에 CCS 를 설치할 경우에 대해 기술 타당성 검증을 목적으로 CCS 모델링을 수행하였다. CCS Case Studies 는 플랜트 운전부하에 따른 $CO_2$ 제거율, $H_2S$ 제거율, 소모동력 범위 등 플랜트 성능을 예측할 수 있다. Case Studies 결과를 활용하여 설계된 CCS 설비 용량이 운전범위에 적합한지를 판단할 수 있고 과잉 설계되었을 경우 플랜트 건설비를 절감할 수 있다. IGCC 가스화 플랜트에서 생산되는 합성가스의 $CO_2$ 분압, 목표 $CO_2$ 제거율, 경제성을 기준으로 적합한 CCS 공정을 판단한 결과 Selexol 공정이 선정되었다. Selexol 공정은 고압, 고농도의 산성가스 제거에 적합하며 다른 물리적 용매인 Rectisol 공정에 비해 건설비용이 경제적이고 화학 흡수제인 아민과 비교하여 운전 온도 범위가 넓다. CO, $H_2O$ 를 $CO_2$, $H_2$ 로 전환하는 Water Gas Shift Reaction (WGSR) 공정은 Co/Mo 촉매 반응기로 구성되었고 Selexol 공정은 $H_2S$ Absorber, $H_2S$ Stripper, $CO_2$ Absorber, $CO_2$ Flash Drum 로 구성되었다. WGSR+Selexol 모델링은 Wet Scrubber 후단의 합성가스 (40.5 bar, $136{\sim}139^{\circ}C$) 를 대상으로 하였다. WGSR+Selexol 공정 운전 조건 변화 [Process Design Case(PDC), Equipment Design Case(EDC), Turndown Design Case(TDC)] 에 따른 플랜트 모델링 결과를 비교분석 하였다. 주요 분석 내용은 WGSR 설비에서의 CO 의 $CO_2$ 전환 효율, Selexol 설비에서 $CO_2$ 제거 효율, $H_2S$ 제거 효율이다. 모델링 결과 WGSR 설비에서의 CO 의 $CO_2$ 로의 전환율 99.1% 이상, Selexol 설비에서 $CO_2$ 제거율은 91.6% 이상, $H_2S$ 제거율 100%이었다. CCS 설비 설치에 따른 플랜트 성능 영향을 분석하기 위해서 CCS 설비의 Chiller, Compressor, Pump 소비동력을 계산하였다. 모델링 결과 Chiller 는 2.6~8.5 MWth, Compressor 는 3.0~9.6 MWe, Pump 는 1.4~3.0 MWe 범위 이었다. 플랜트 로드가 50%인 TDC 소모동력은 플랜트 로드가 100%인 PDC 소모동력의 절반 수준이었다. 합성가스를 WGS+Selexol 공정을 통해 수소가스로 전환시키면 가스터빈 연료가스의 Lower Heating Value (LHV) 값이 평균 11.5% 감소하였다.

We report high-power continuous-wave operation of a Yb-doped fiber laser at 1070 nm, pumped by high-power laser diodes at 976 nm. Based on theoretical calculation of the stimulated Raman scattering and temperature distribution in the fiber, we construct a bidirectionally pumped Yb-fiberlaser system incorporating a pair of fiber Bragg gratings and a cladding light stripper. The fiber laser yields 3.0 kW of continuous-wave output at 1070 nm in a diffraction-limited beam with M² ≈ 1.26 for 4.1 kW of incident pump power, corresponding to a slope efficiency of 81.5%. The prospects for further power scaling are discussed.
