Thermodynamic analysis on silicon consumpton during the chemical vapor deposition of tungten was carried out by calculation equilibrium concerations of all possible product species utilizing a computer progrom according to VCS.(Villars-Cruise-Smith) algorithm. The calculation could show various reaction paths which dominate the tungsten deposition under different process conditions. According to the calculation, the consumption of silicon can also be reduced at a lower total pressure SiH4 without H2 as the reacting gas is most effective for suppression of the excessive consumption of silicon during the deposition process.

Sludged silicon powders that are generated during silicon ingot slicing process have potential usage as silicon source in fabricating silicon carbide powders by adding carbon. A thermodynamic calculation is performed to consider a plausible formation condition for the silicon carbide powders. A thin silicon oxide layer around silicon powder is sufficient to supply equilibrium oxygen partial pressure at the formation temperature($1400^{\circ}C$) of the silicon carbide in the Si-C-O ternary system. Formation of silicon carbide by using the sludged silicon powders is more efficient than by using silicon oxide powders.

Thermodynamic prediction of weathering products from primary aquifer minerals around underground disposal sites was investigated. The distribution of solubility quotients for kaolinite-smectite reactions showed the trend of reaching at equilibrium with Ca-, Mg-, and Na-smectite for deep groundwaters in granitic aquifers. The values of $10^{-14.56}$, $10^{-15.73}$, and $10^{-7.76}$ were proposed as equilibrium constants between kaolinite and Ca-, Mg-, and Na-smectite end members, respectively. On stability diagrams, most of deep groundwaters were located at equilibrium boundaries between stability fields of kaolinite and smectites or on stability fields of smectites and illite. Shallow groundwaters in basic rock aquifer were plotted at the same stability areas of deep granitic groundwaters on stability diagrams. The results indicated that the primiary mineralogical composition may be important to predict weathering products in deep aquifers.

In this study, the adsorption behavior from aqueous solution as well as kinetic and thermodynamic parameters of Acid Black 1 were investigated through batch reaction using coconut shell based granular steam activated carbon. The effects of various adsorption parameters such as pH, initial concentration, contact time, temperature were studied. To confirm the effect of pH, pHpzc measurements were analyzed followed by measuring removal efficiencies of Acid Black 1 at the pH range from 3 to 11. Experimental equilibrium adsorption data were fitted using Langmuir, Freundlich, Temkin and Dubinin-Radushkevich adsorption isotherm. The conformity of adsorption reaction for pseudo first and second order model were evaluated through kinetic analysis. Values of enthalpy change and activation energy were also investigated through thermodynamic analysis and it was confirmed that the adsorption process was endothermic. The spontaneity of adsorption process was evaluated using the values of entropy and Gibbs free energy changes.

Thermodynamic properties of binary nonazeotropic refrigerant mixtures are estimated by using a modified Carnhan-Starling equation of state. In this study, pure component refrigerants such as R14, R23, R13, R13 B1, R22, R12, R134a, R152a, R142b, RC318, R114, R11, R123 and R113 are chosen and the thermodynamic properties of enthalpy and entropy are calculated in terms of relevant variables. The modified Carnahan-Starling equation of state is compared with the carnahan-Staring-De Santis equation of sate. Results show that the relative errors become slightly smaller with the equation of state proposed in this study. Correlations are obtained for the mixtures of which the vapor liquid equilibruim data are available to us in the literature. Those mixtures are R14/R23, R23/R12, R13/R12, R13/R11, R13B1/R22, R13B1/RC318, R12/RC138, R12/R114 and R12/R11. The binary interaction coefficients are found under the condition of minimizing the pressure deviations at the vapor liquid equiblibrium state and the estimation of the vapor liquid equilibrium for the refrigerant mixtures is done. Pressure-enthalpy and temperature-entropy diagrams are plotted for the refrigerant mixtures of specific composition.

In this study, we conducted the kinetic hydration modeling of OPC and the final product according to the substitution ratio of GGBS by using the geochemical code, GEMS, in order to calculate the thermodynamic equilibrium. The thermodynamic data was used by GEMS's 3rd party database, Cemdata18, and the cement hydration model, the Parrot & Killoh model was applied to simulate the hydration process. In OPC modeling, ion concentration of pore solution and hydration products by mass and volume were observed according to time. In the GGBS modeling, as the substitution rate increases, the amount of C-S-H, which contributes the long-term strength, increases, but the amount of Portlandite decreases, which leads to carbonation and steel corrosion. Therefore, it is necessary to establish prevention of some deterioration.

Estimations of the thermodynamic properties are made for the selected binary non-azeotropic refrigerant mixtures including R13B1/R114, R22/R114, R12/R114, R152a/R114, R13B1/R152a and R13B1/R12 using the Peng-Robinson equation of state and mixing rules. In this study, we find that the binary interaction coefficients for the above mixtures have an effect upon the vapor-liquid equilibria and the thermodynamic properties. As the binary interaction coefficient becomes larger, the deviation from the idealized model, say, Raoult`s rule, is obvious. A correlation is proposed to relate the binary interaction coefficient to the difference between the dipole moments op each pure refrigerant. Vapor-liquid equilibrium are also accurately estimated using the binary interaction coefficient. Pressure-enthalpy and temperature-entropy relations are plotted for a certain composition ratio of each refrigerant mixture. Results show that the estimating method in this study can be applied to the investigation of the thermodynamic properties for the binary non-azeotropic refrigerant mixtures.

Strontium is known as a salt-soluble element during the electrolytic oxide reduction (EOR) process. The chemical behavior of SrO during EOR was investigated via thermodynamic calculations to provide quantitative data on the chemical status of Sr. To achieve this, thermodynamic calculations were conducted using HSC chemistry software for various EOR conditions. It was revealed that SrO reacts with LiCl salt to produce SrCl₂, even in the presence of Li₂O, and that the ratio of SrCl₂ depends on the initial concentration of Li₂O dissolved in LiCl. It was found that SrO reacts with Li to produce Sr during EOR and that the reduced Sr reacts with LiCl salt to produce SrCl₂. As a result, the proportions of metallic forms were lower in Sr than in La and Nd under various EOR conditions. The thermodynamic calculations indicated that the three chemical forms of SrO, SrCl₂, and Sr co-exist in the EOR system under an equilibrium with Li, Li₂O, and LiCl.

Fowler obtained thermodynamic quantities assuming the theory which could be derived by representing the system with microcanonical ensemble, in order to introduce the temperature T of the system proper, he considered the combined systems which are composed of the system proper and another arbitrary system that is in thermal contact with the former, and represented the combined system by a microcanonical ensemble, here, he used the steepest descent method in his calculation. This Fowler's treatment is not only unsatisfactory at the point of theoretical view but also he could not make the formulation of free energy of Helmholtz's so that this formular was forced to be assumed. From the point of Quantum Statistical Mechanical view, the materially closed system which is in an equilibrium state with the temperature T is best represented by canonical ensemble. At the actual derivation of the distribution law and thermodynamic quantities, however, in order to avoid the difficulty of calculation Tolman proceeded his calculation either representing the system proper by the grand-canonical ensemble or adding a certain limitation.

Proteins and polysaccharides are major food macromolecules. Generally, the mixture of these macromolecules can be separated into two phases because of their thermodynamic incompatibility. Phase separ-ation is explained by equilibrium phase diagram, which comprises binodal curve, critical point, phase separation threshold, tie-line and rectilinear diameter. Phase separation of protein-polysacc-haride solution is affected by pH, temperature, ionic strength, molecular weight, molecular structure, etc. Membraneless osmosis has been developed to concentrate protein solutions, using the phase diagram constituted by proteins and polysaccharides. Protein-polysaccharide mixtures are very promising fat mimetics because solution of mixtures forms water-continuous system with two phase-separated gels, which give plastic texture and a fatty mouthfeel.
