The main objective of this study is to investigate the correlation of chemical structure and cetane number of reformed diesel fuels by ultrasonic irradiation. In order to analyze the effect of the chemical structure and the cetane number of reformed diesel fuels by ultrasonic irradiation, $^1H-NMR$ was used. From the study, following conclusive remarks can be made. 1) BI(=Branch Index), aromatics percentages, and $H_{\alpha}(={\alpha}-methyl$ functional group) of the reformed diesel fuels by ultrasonic irradiation decreased more than those of the conventional diesel fuel. 2) All the cetane numbers which were calculated from carbon type structure and hydrogen type distribution of the reformed diesel fuels increased more than those of the conventional diesel fuel. 3) Using predicated equation of cetane number caculated from carbon type structure is more reasonable than that caculated from hydrogen type distribution 4) BI, aromatics percentages, and $H_{\alpha}$ on both of conventional fuel and reformed diesel fuels by ultrasonic irradiation are inversely proportional to cetane number on these fuels.

2,4-Dichlorophenol was known pollutants caused by the endocrine disruptor into the refractory substances of environment and this is difficult to be degradable by conventional methods. Therefore, a considerable interest has been devoted to developing new process where 2,4-Dichlorophenol can easily decomposed. In this study, the series of ultrasonic irradiation for removal of 2,4-Dichlorophenol has been selected as a model reaction in the batch reactor system in order to obtain the basic data investigate the influence of various experimental parameters such as concentration, pH, reaction temperature, acoustic intensity. The products obtained form the ultrasonic irradiation were analysed by GC/MS and HPLC. The formation of $H_2O_2$, a well-known the strong oxidant was found proportionally to increase with irradiation time. The intermediates of ultrasonic irradiation of 2,4-Dichlorophenol were identified as HCl, catechol, hydroquinone, o,p-benzoquinone, muconic acid, and maleic acid. The final products of this was $CO_2$ and $H_2O$. As the decomposition of 2,4-Dichlorophenol proceeds by the ultrasonic irradiation, the pH of 2,4-Dichlorophenol containing aqueous solution increases slowly, The decomposition of 2,4-Dichlorophenol was found to be occured fast in the basic medium. In general, the rate of reaction is proportional to the reaction temperature obeying the Arrhenius' law. However, in the ultrasonic irradiation, this suggests as the reaction temperature increase the decomposition rate of the reactant decreases. This result meant that the increase of reaction temperature due to the increase of vapor pressure of water accelerated the decrease of acoustic intensity which was can be proportional to the decomposition rae of these compounds. It was found that more than 80% of phenol solution was removed within hours in all reaction conditions. The reaction order in the degradation of the 2,4-Dichlorophenol compounds was verified as the Pseude-first order. From the fore-mentioned results, it can be concluded that the refractory organic compounds caused by endocrine disruptor as 2,4-dichlorophenol could be removed by the ultrasonic irradiation with radicals, such as $H{\;}{\cdot}{\;}and{\;}OH{\;}{\cdot}$ radical causing the high increase of pressure and temperature. Finally, it apeared that the technology using ultrasonic irradiation can be applied to the treatment of refractory substances caused by endocrine disruptor which are difficult to be decomposed by the conventional methods.

Membrane distillation (MD) is a novel separation process that have drawn attention as an affordable alternative to conventional desalination processes. However, membrane fouling and pore wetting are issues to be addressed prior to widespread application of MD. In this study, the influence of ultrasonic irradiation on fouling and wetting of MD membranes was investigated for better understanding of the MD process. Experiments were carried out using a direct contact membrane distillation apparatus Colloidal silica was used as a model foulants in a synthetic seawater (35,000 mg/L NaCl solution). A vibrator was directed attached to membrane module to generate ultrasonic waves from 25 kHz (the highest energy) to 75 kHz (the lowest energy). Flux and TDS for the distillate water were continuously monitored. Results suggested that ultrasonic irradiation is effective to retard flux decline due to fouling only in the early stage of the MD operation. Moreover, wetting occurred by a long-term application of ultrasonic rradiation at 75 kHz. These results suggest that the conditions for ultrasonic irradiation should be carefully optimized to maximize fouling control and minimize pore wetting.

초음파 캐비테이션 현상이란 강한 초음파 조사 조건에서 매질(주로 유체) 내에서 미세기포를 발생시키고, 천이시키는 물리적 현상을 의미한다. 본 연구에서는 초음파 캐비테이션 발생량의 정량적 평가를 위하여 초음파 조사조건에 따른 기포군의 초음파 음향 특성변화를 관찰하였다. 중심 주파수가 500 kHz. 1.1 MHz인 곡면형 단일 초음파 변환기를 이용하여 캐비테이션 현상을 발생시켰으며, 형성되는 기포군을 가로지르는 2.25 MHz 간섭 초음파를 송/수신하여 분석하였다. 본 연구에서는 캐비테이션 발생량 평가를 위한 파라미터로 투과하는 파의 중심주파수 변화 및 감쇠 특성, 전파시간을 제시하였으며, 캐비테이션 발생 조건(조사 강도 및 여기 신호, 중심주파수)에 따른 변화를 관찰하였다. 획득된 간섭 초음파 수신신호를 분석한 결과, 중심 주파수의 변화의 경우 상관계수는 낮지만 조사 강도에 따른 상관관계를 확인할 수 있었으며, 특정 조사 조건에서 주목할 만한 급격한 중심 주파수 변화가 관찰되었다. 조사조건에 따른 간섭 초음파의 감쇠 추세는 모든 조건에서 높은 상관관계를 보였으며, 캐비테이션 발생형태에 영향을 받지 않는 것으로 확인되었다. 조사조건에 따른 전파 시간의 변화는 관찰되지 않았다. 차후 다양한 조사조건에 대한 평가를 통하여 보다 정량적인 캐비테이션 발생량 평가가 가능할 것으로 판단되며, 이러한 정량적 평가는 고강도 초음파 치료에서 발생할 수 있는 현상에 대한 기초 연구로서 활용 가능할 것으로 사료된다.

An object of this study is to understand the correlation between the characteristics of an engine performance and combustion characteristics, applying BD20 fuel reformed by ultrasonic energy irradiation to diesel engines. Before conducting the main experiment, an experiment was performed to determine the optimum injection timimg of reformed BD20 by ultrasonic energy irradiation. To control the duration of the ultrasonic energy irradiation, the capacity of an ultrasonic energy fuel supply system was tested with 550cc and 1100cc chambers. As the result of the analysis of the regular BD20 and reformed BD20 by ultrasonic energy irradiation, the BSFC and the Power of the reformed BD20 was improved 3% and 6%, respectively compared to those of non-irradiated BD20. When the fuel injection timing was delayed by $5^{\circ}$, the engine power was improved by 3%, and the BSFC was improved by 2%. The maximum cylinder pressure of reformed BD20 was improved by a maximum of 6% in comparison to that of regular BD20, and demonstrated a synergistic effect of 3% by delaying the injection timing $5^{\circ}$.

This study was performed to examine the factors influencing on the degradation of TCE, Benzene and 2,4 DCP in aqueous solution using ultrasonic irradiation. The TCE,Benzene and 2,4 DCP, which are hazard compounds causing environmental pollution, were not decomposable pollutants by convientional treatment. The results shows that the generation of H$_{2}$O$_{2}$, H$^{+}$ and OH$^{-}$ radical was formed by the oxidation and reduction reaction of ultrasound, and then theses decomposed the refractory pollutants of TCE, Benzene & 2,4 DCP in aqueous solution. we conformed that the ultrasonic irradiation was excellent in removal efficiency of the refractory pollutants any other than Advanced Oxidation Processes(AOP), utilized the treatment of organic compounds in the industrial wastewater. Consequently, these results suggest that ultrasonic irradiation may be extremely useful for the treatment of wastewaters contaminated organic pollutants, which is difficult to treat economically by conventional process.

At room-temperature, a facile, seedless, and environmentally benign green route for the synthesis of star like PbS nanoclusters at 7 min in aqueous solution of 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium ethyl sulfate, [EMIM] [$EtSO_{4}$], room-temperature ionic liquid (RTIL), via ultrasonic irradiation is proposed. The X-ray diffraction studies display that the products are excellently crystallized in the form of cubic structure. An energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX) investigation reveals the products are extremely pure. The absorption spectra of the product exhibit band gap energy of about 4.27 eV which shows an enormous blue shift of 3.86 eV that can be attributed to very small size of PbS nanoparticles produced and quantum confinement effect. A possible formation mechanism of the PbS nanoparticles using ultrasonic irradiation in aqueous solution of the RTIL is presented.

초음파 (ultrasonic) 조사시간 (irradiation time)에 따른 Microcystis aeruginosa (M. aeruginosa)의 성장억제 (growth inhibition) 효과를 대용량 (10 L) 조류 시료를 활용해 다양한 초음파 조사시간 동안 (0.5, 1, 1.5, 2, 2.5, 3 hr) 실험실 규모 (lab-scale) 실험을 진행하였다. Chl-a와 M. aeruginosa 개체수 (cell number) 분석 결과, 초음파 조사 종료 이후 모든 실험군에서 Chl-a와 개체수가 감소되어 조류 성장억제가 관찰되었으며, 초음파 조사시간이 2시간 미만인 실험군 (T_B, T_C, T_D)은 저감 이후 조류의 급격한 재성장 (regrowth)이 관측되었으나, 조사시간이 2시간 이상인 실험군 (T_E, T_F, T_G)은 2시간 미만 조사한 실험군 대비 조류성장억제가 1 - 2일 더 지속되는 것을 확인하였다. 또한, 조류의 개체수가 초기 개체수까지 회복 시간 (recovery time)을 검토한 결과 조사시간 2시간을 기준으로 실험군 T_B (0.5 hr)는 7일, T_C (1 hr)와 T_D (1.5 hr)는 약 20일, T_E, T_F, T_G (≥ 2 hr)는 약 30일이 소요되어 초음파 조사 종료 후 초기 개체수까지의 회복 시간의 차이를 확인하였다. 비성장속도 (𝜇)와 일차분해속도(𝜅)를 도출한 결과, 실험군은 성장억제 기간 동안 초음파 조사시간과 비례하여 높은 일차분해율이 도출되었으며, 조사시간이 2시간 이상인 실험군의 재성장 시 비성장속도 (𝜇)는 2시간 미만인 실험군 대비 비성장속도 (𝜇)가 상대적으로 낮은 것으로 확인되었다. 따라서 정체수역 내 장기적인 (30일) 조류 성장억제를 위해서는 최소한 2시간 이상의 초음파 조사가 필요한 것으로 판단되나, 조류 성장억제를 위한 적정 초음파 조사시간은 정체수역의 규모, 수심, 흐름속도, 조류 농도 등의 다양한 현장조건에 따라 결정돼야 하며, 실제 적용 가능성을 높이기 위한 추가 연구가 필요한 것으로 판단된다. 초음파의 영향으로 인한 M. aeruginosa의 세포 표면 및 내부형질 변화를 관찰한 결과, 조류 세포 표면 및 세포막의 손상이 명확히 관측되었으며, 대조군 대비 실험군의 M. aeruginosa의 기낭 파괴 및 교란이 확인되었다.

Hydroxybenzothiophenes, dihydroxy-benzothiophenes, and benzothiophenedione were identified as inter-mediates of benzothiophene (BT) exposed to ultrasonic irradiation. It is proposed that benzothiophene is oxidized by OH radical to sequentially for m hydroxybenzothiophenes, dihydroxybenzothiophenes, and benzothiophenedione. Benzothiophene is decomposed rapidly following pseudo-first-order kinetics in a first-order manner by ultrasonic irradiation in aqueous solution. The toxicity of sonochemically treated solutions was checked by E. coli and a less inhibition in bacterial respiration was observed from the 120-min treated benzothiophene sample than from the untreated benzothiophene sample. Also evolution of carbon dioxide and sulfite was observed during ultrasonic reaction. A pathway for ultrasonic decomposition of benzothiophene in aqueous solution is proposed.
