Solid oxide fuel cells (SOFCs), as high-temperature fuel cells, have various advantages. In some merits of SOFCs, high temperature operation can lead to the capability for internal reforming, providing fuel flexibility. SOFCs can directly use CH4 and CO as fuels with sufficient steam feeds. However, hydrocarbons heavier than CH4, such as ethylene, ethane, and propane, induce carbon deposition on the Ni-based anodes of SOFCs. In the case of the ethylene steam reforming reaction on a Ni-based catalyst, the rate of carbon deposition is faster than among other hydrocarbons, even aromatics. In the reformates of heavy hydrocarbons (diesel, gasoline, kerosene and JP-8), the concentration of ethylene is usually higher than other low hydrocarbons such as methane, propane and butane. It is importatnt that ethylene in the reformate is removed for stlable operation of SOFCs. A new methodology, termed post-reforming was introduced for removing low hydrocarbons from the reformate gas stream. In this work, activity tests of some post-reforming catalysts, such as CGO-Ru, CGO-Ni, and CGO-Pt, are investigated. CGO-Pt catalyst is not good for removing ethylene due to low conversion of ethylene and low selectivity of ethylene dehydrogenation. The other hand, CGO-Ru and CGO-Ni catalysts show good ethylene conversion, and CGO-Ni catalyst shows the best reaction selectivity of ethylene dehydrogenation.

최근 천연가스 개발의 중요성이 대두되면서 심해저 퇴적층에 존재하고 있는 천연가스 하이드레이트 개발에 많은 연구가 진행되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 심해저 퇴적층에 부존하는 가스 하이드레이트 조건과 유사하게 하기위해 3 wt% 농도의 염수를 다공성 실리카 젤 기공에 넣어 사용하였다. 기공의 직경에 따른 영향을 알아보기 위해 기공 직경이 각각 6.0, 15.0, 30.0 nm인 실리카 젤을 사용하여, 천연가스 주성분인 에탄, 프로판, 메탄+프로판 하이드레이트의 3상 (H-Lw-V) 평형을 측정하였다. 그 결과 기공의 크기가 작아질수록 각각의 벌크 상태의 에탄, 프로판, 메탄+프로판 하이드레이트에 비해 하이드레이트의 평형조건이 온도는 낮아지고 압력이 높아지는 저해효과가 커짐을 알 수 있었다. 실험값으로 부터 기공 내의 물과 하이드레이트상 사이의 계면장력 값을 Gibbs-Thomson식에 의해 구할 수 있으며, 열역학 계산을 통하여 실험값과 비교하였다. 본 연구에서 얻어진 결과는 심해저 천연가스 개발, 이산화탄소 심해저장 등의 가스 하이드레이트 응용 연구에 유용한 기초 자료가 될 것이다.

In the course of the study on strain inprovement by protoplast fusion, Lactobacillus acidophilus 88 protoplasts production and regeneration conditions were investigated. This strain produced a bacteriocin that revealed strong inhibitory activity against various indicator strains, especially L. helveticus CNRZ 1096. Protoplasts of L. acidophilus 88 strains were very efficiently obtained by treatment with 125 $\mu $g/ml lysozyme in a protoplast forming buffer containing 20 mM N-2 hydroxy-ethtl-piperazine-N'-2-ethane-sulfonic acid(HEPES, pH 7.0) and 1M sucrose at 37$\circ $C for 30 min. Hovever, treatment with mutanolysin was not effective for the production of L. acidophilus 88 protoplasts under the same conditions. High protoplast yield was obtained form the cells at the middle to late logarithmic growth phase in the de Man, Rogosa and Sharpe(MRS) medium. Regeneration was efficiently accomplished with the MRS medium containing 10% sucrose.

This paper describes development of management software for transformers based on artificial intelligent analysis technology of dissolved gases in oil. Fault interpretation using the artificial intelligent analysis is performed by the artificial neural network and a rule based on the analysis of dissolved gases. The used gases are acetylene($C_{2}H_{2}$), hydrogen($H_2$), ethylene($C_{2}H_{4}$), methane($CH_4$), ethane($C_{2}H_{6}$), carbon monoxide(CO) and carbon dioxide($CO_2$). This software is mainly composed of gases input, fault's causes, expected fault's phenomena in detail, the decision on maintenance as well as report and gas trend windows. It is indicated that this is very powerful software for the efficient management of oil-immersed transformers using data analysis of gas components.

A periodic mesoporous organosilica material was synthesized by microwave heating (PMO-M) using 1,2-bis(trimethoxysilyl)ethane as a precursor in a cationic surfactant solution, and textural properties were compared with those of the product produced by conventional convection heating (PMO-C). These synthesized materials were characterized using XRD, TEM/SEM, N2 adsorption isotherm, 29Si and 13C NMR, and TGA, which confirmed their good structural orders and clear arrangements of uniform 3D-channels. Synthesis time was reduced from 21 h in PMO-C to 2-4 h in PMO-M. PMO-M was made of spherical particles of 1.5-2.2 m m size, whereas PMO-C was made of decaoctahedron-shaped particles of ca. 8.0 m m size. Effect of synthesis temperature, time, and heating mode on the PMO particle morphology was examined. The particle size of PMO-M could be controlled by changing the heating rate by adjusting microwave power level. PMO-M demonstrated improved separation of selected organic compounds compared to PMO-C in a reversed phase HPLC experiment. Ti-grafted PMO-M also resulted in higher conversion in liquid phase cyclohexene epoxidation than by Ti-PMO-C.

This paper considers the influence of internal heat exchangers to the efficiency of a refrigerating system using R170. These liquid-gas heat exchangers(internal or suction-line heat exchangers) can, in some cases, yield improved system performance while in other cases they degrade system performance. A steady state mathematical model is used to analysis the performance characteristics of refrigeration system with internal heat exchanger. The influence of operating conditions, such as the mass flowrate of R170, inner diameter tube and length of internal heat exchanger, to optimal dimensions of the heat exchanger is also analyzed in the paper. The main results were summarized as follows : the mass flowrate of R170, inner diameter tube and length of internal heat exchanger, and effectiveness have an effect on the cooling capacity, compressor work and RCI(Relative Capacity Index) of this system. Exception for the effect of inner diameter, the RCI of R170 with respect to refrigerant mass flowrate, the length and effectiveness of internal heat exchanger is about 2.1~3.3% higher than that of R13 at the same experimental conditions. With a thorough grasp of these effect, it is necessary to design the R170 compression refrigeration cycle using internal heat exchanger.

In the present study, a systematic chemical kinetic calculations were made to investigate the augmentation of $NO-NO_2$ conversion due to the addition of various hydrocarbons (methane, ethylene, ethane, propylene, propane) in the nonthermal plasma treatment. It is included in the present conclusion that the reaction between hydrocarbon and oxygen radicals induced by electron collision, is believed to be a primarily process for triggering the overall NO oxidation and the eventual NOx reduction. Upon the completion of the initiating step, various radicals (OH, $HO_2$ etc.) successively are produced by hydrocarbon decomposition form the primary path of $NO-NO_2$ conversion. When the initiating step is not activated, hydrocarbon consumption rate appeared to be very low, thereby the targeted level of NO conversion can only be achieved by the addition of more input energy. Present study showed ethylene and propylene to have higher affinity with O radical under all conditions, thereby both of these hydrocarbons show very fast and efficient $NO-NO_2$ oxidation. It was also shown that propylene is superior to ethylene in the aspect of NOx removal.

Polyurethane adhesive is used in various fields as flexible packaging materials including a food packaging field. Therefore, the purpose of this study is synthesis of polyurethane adhesive which uses aliphatic isocyanate, and compares with aromatic isocyanate. The isocyanates for this test are toluene-2,4-diisocyanate(TDI), hexamethylene diisocyanate(HDI), 4,4-dicyclohexyl ethane diisocyanate($H_{12}MDI$), and isophorone diisocyanate(IPDI). And, the effect of any other diisocyanate are evaluated by several methods as for curing rate test, accelerate weathering test, and peel strength test. The polyurethane adhesive using curing catalyst and HDI has adhesion strength of about 560 g/15 mm between aluminium foil and nylon, about 1,520 g/15 mm between nylon and CPP. Those parameters are similar to polyurethane adhesive with TDI. Also, in case of curing rate, those are similar to TDI type polyurethane adhesive. Moreover, data of ${\Delta}E$ as color variation by QUV tester is equal to 4.12, as 48% against those of TDI type.

Thermodynamic analysis of extraction process from the constant pressure LNG(Liquefied Natural Gas) vessel was performed in this study. LNG was assumed as a binary mixture of 90% methane and 10% ethane by mole fraction. The thermodynamic properties such as temperature, composition, specific volume and the amount of cold energy were predicted during extraction process. Pressure as a parameter ranges from 101.3kPa to 2000kPa. The result shows the peculiar phenomena for the LNG as a mixture. Both vapor and liquid extraction processes were investigated by a computer model. The property changes are negligible in the liquid extraction process. For the vapor extraction process, the temperature in the vessel increases rapidly and the extracted composition of methane decreases rapidly near the end of extracting process. Specific volume of vapor has the maximum and that of liquid has the minimum during the process. When pressure is increased, specific volume of vapor decreases and that of liquid increases. It was found that specific volume of vapor phase had a major effect on the heat absorption at constant pressure during vapor extraction process. If the pressure of the vessel increases, the total cold energy which can be utilized from LNG decreased.
