Reverse osmosis (RO) concentration of sodium chloride, sodium acetate, and sodium citrate solutions has been performed by polyamide RO membrane. Concentration polarization phenomena was also studied by changing pressure, solute kinds, and initial solution concentration. Pressure effect on permeation flux was that the increase of flux was accompanied by the increase of pressure. Flux increase was observed by the decrease of initial solution concentration. Surface concentration on the RO membrane increases and so flux declines due to the concentration polarization. In the later phase of concentration, concentration polarization effect was decreased by the back diffusion of solute from the polariztion layer. In case of sodium citrate, its large ion size and charge density resulted in the discrepancy between theory and experimental data of concentration polarization. It may be due to electric repulsion on the membrane surface.

Vinylbenzyl triphenyl phosphonium chloride (VTPC) was prepared for the humid membrane. The humidity sensitive memo)lane was composed of copolymers, which have differnet content of VTPC and styrene (VTPC : ST=1 : 0.7 : 3, 5 : 5, 3 : 7). The changes in electrical properties of copolymers with relative humidity were measured. It was found that the impedance decreased with an increase of the content of VTPC in the humid membrane, and the Impedance also decreased with an increase of thickness of humid membrane. The copolymer derived from same equip of VTPC and ST showed 12M$\Omega$-100M$\Omega$ at 70%RH-90%RH, which was required for the current humidity sensor operating at high humidity or dew point. The temperature dependence coefficient at a temperature range 15$^{\circ}C$∼35$^{\circ}C$ was found to be -0.5%RH/$^{\circ}C$ and the hysterisis fabled within the range ${\pm}$2%RH. The response time was found to be 40seconds for varing relative humidity from 75% RH to 95%RH and vice versa.

Dinitramide ($N(NO_2)_2$) salts are one of plausible oxidizing agents for a high efficient propellant. Guanidine dinitramide (GDN) is an organic salt improving its stability against moisture, so that enables massive production and long term storage. Several types of GDN (GDN-1,2,3,4,5) were synthesized using some types of starting materials such as guanidine acetate, chloride, carbonate, nitrate and sulfate. As a result of the experimental work, synthesized GDN from the carbonate salt appeared fairly pure relatively higher yield (99%) than the other samples. The absorption wave length of all prepared GDNs by FTIR were found at 3452, 3402, 3354, 3278, 3208, 1642, 1570, 1492, 1416, 1337, 1179 and $1000cm^{-1}$. DSC analysis found a thermal phase change at $130^{\circ}C$, and indicated exothermic reaction at about $150^{\circ}C$ to $160^{\circ}C$.

Wet Scrubber reacts the incoming pollutant gas with cleaning water (water + absorbent) to absorb pollutants and release the clean air to the atmosphere. Wet scrubbers and packed tower scrubbers using this principle are widely used in businesses that emit acid gases. In particular, in the etching process using hydrochloric acid (HCl), alkaline washing water (NaOH) having a pH of about 8 to 11 is used to absorb a large amount of acid gas. However, These salts are attached to the injection nozzle (nozzle), filling material (packing), and the demister (Demister), causing air pollution, human damage, and inoperability due to clogging and acid gas discharge. Therefore, In this study, an improvement plan was proposed to manage the washing water with pH 3~4 acidic washing water. The test method takes samples from the Wet Scrubber flue measurement laboratory twice a month for 1 year. Hydrogen chloride (HCl) concentration (ppm) was measured, and nozzle clogging and scale conditions were measured, compared, and analyzed through a differential pressure gauge and a pressure gauge. As a result of the check, it was visually confirmed that the scale was reduced to 50% or less in the spray nozzle, filler, and demister. In addition, the emission limit of hydrogen chloride in accordance with the Enforcement Regulation of the Air Quality Conservation Act [Annex 8] met 3 ppm or less. Therefore, even if the washing water is operated in an acidic pH range of 3 to 4, it is expected to reduce air pollution and human damage due to clogging of internal parts, and it is expected to reduce maintenance costs such as regular cleaning or replacement of parts.

The purpose of this study is to develop a process technology to produce high hardness drinking water which meet drinking water standard, remaining useful minerals like magnesium and calcium in the seawater desalination process while removing the sulfate ions and chloride ions. Seawater have been separated the concentrated seawater and desalted seawater by passing on Reverse Osmosis membrane (RO). Using Nano-filtration membrane (NF), We were prepared primary mineral concentrated water that sodium chloride were not removed. By the operation of electro-dialysis (ED) having ion exchange membrane, we were prepared concentrated mineral water (Mineral enriched desalted water) which the sodium chloride is removed. We have produced the high hardness water to meet the drinking water quality standards by diluting the mineral enriched desalted water with deionized water by RO. Reverse osmosis membranes (RO) can separate dissolved material and freshwater from seawater (deep seawater). The desalination water throughout the second reverse osmosis membrane was completely removed dissolved substances, which dissolved components was removed more than 99.9%, its the hardness concentration was 1 mg/L or less and its chloride concentration was 2.3 mg/L. Since the nano-filtration membrane pore size is $10^{-9}$ m, 50% of magnesium ions and calcium ions can not pass through the nano-filtration membrane, while more than 95% of sodium ions and chloride ions can pass through NF membrane. Nano-filtration membrane could be separated salt components like sodium ion and chloride ions and hardness ingredients like magnesium ions and calcium ions, but their separation was not perfect. Electric dialysis membrane system can be separated single charged ions (like sodium and chloride ions) and double charged ions (like magnesium and calcium ions) depending on its electrical conductivity. Above electrical conductivity 20mS/cm, hardness components (like magnesium and calcium ions) did not removed, on the other hand salt ingredients like sodium and chloride ions was removed continuously. Thus, we were able to concentrate hardness components (like magnesium and calcium ions) using nano-filtration membrane, also could be separated salts ingredients from the hardness concentration water using electrical dialysis membrane system. Finally, we were able to produce a highly concentrated mineral water removed chloride ions, which hardness concentration was 12,600 mg/L and chloride concentration was 2,446 mg/L. By diluting 10 times these high mineral water with secondary RO (Reverse Osmosis) desalination water, we could produce high mineral water suitable for drinking water standards, which chloride concentration was 244 mg/L at the same time hardness concentration 1,260 mg/L. Using the linked process with reverse osmosis (RO)/nano filteration (NF)/electric dialysis (ED), it could be concentrated hardness components like magnesium ions and calcium ions while at the same time removing salt ingredients like chloride ions and sodium ion without heating seawater. Thus, using only membrane as RO, NF and ED without heating seawater, it was possible to produce drinking water containing high hardness suitable for drinking water standard while reducing the energy required to evaporation.

The purposes of this research were to synthesize amoxicillin-carrying magnetic nanoparticles. Magnetic nanoparticles were prepared by a chemical precipitation of ferric and ferrous chloride salts in the presence of a strong basic solution. PLGA and PLGA-PEG copolymers were prepared by ring opening polymerization of lactide (LA) and glycolide (GA) (mole ratio of LA: GA 3:1) with or without polyethylene glycol (PEG). Amoxicillin loaded magnetic PLGA and PLGA-PEG nanoparticles were prepared by an emulsion-evaporation process (o/w). Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) photomicrographs showed that the magnetic nanoparticles have the mean diameter within the range of 65-260 nm also they were almost spherical in shape. Magnetic nanoparticles prepared with PLGA showed more efficient entrapment (90%) as compared with PLGA-PEG (48-52%) nanoparticles. In-vitro release of amoxicillin from magnetic PLGA nanoparticles showed that 78% of drug was released over 24 hours. The amount of amoxicillin released from PLGA-PEG s was higher than PLGA.

In this study, the possible changes in the quality characteristics of pastirma, Turkish-type dry-cured meat product, produced by using two different salts (NaCl-KCl) in a curing mixture and two different production techniques (natural and controlled condition) were examined. Moisture, pH, salt, sodium, potassium, TBA, fat, water activity, instrumental colour, texture, and sensory analyses were implemented in order to determine the possible effects of these applications. Fat, aw, pH, colour, tiobarbituric acid (TBA), texture, salt, Na and K values may allow these desired modifications in pastirma production to be limited. The substitution of 15% KCl instead of NaCl was acceptable in terms of the sensorial properties of the pastirma. However, the sensory analyses did not allow for using a higher KCl instead of NaCl because both the hardness and chewiness in the texture of the pastirma samples salted with 30% of KCl were not scored positively. Besides this, negative effects, which may occur during the pastirma production under natural conditions, can be eliminated by the production being under controlled conditions.

The purification, dissolution and powdering of stained waste silk obtained from weaving and dyeing process were studied for the surface modification of textile fabric and plastic materials. The whiteness of stained waste silk could be improved through degumming and bleaching with sodium hydrosulfite. The water-soluble fibroin solution can be obtained by dissoving the degummed waste silk in a boiling solution of 50% calcium chloride for 60 minutes. The salts and heavy metals contained in fibroin solution were removed by electric dialysis, wool fiber filtration and gel filtration chromatography. The fibroin powder was prepared by using a fine grinder after the alkali treatment for weakening the silk fiber. The fine fibroin powder of particle size around 30 ㎛ was obtained with a ultra fine-mill, while it was finer below 10 ㎛ with a ball-mill. The dissolved or powdered silk was applied to the surface of fabric with addition of the binder (a urethane resin). The moisture content of polyester and nylon fabrics treated with the silk solution was improved due to hygroscopic property of silk. The fine fibroin powder mixed with the binder ws coated on the surface of synthetic film by use of the air pressed sprayer. It was revealed that the hygroscopicity as well as the softness of fibroin powder coated film was much improved. Therefore, it is thought that the fine silk fibroin powder is applicable as an coating agent for the surface modification of plastic and synthetic leather.
