In this study, a novel antiviral coating method for the air filtration system of subway station was investigated. Using dry aerosol coating process, we developed a high-performance antiviral air filter with spark discharger and carbon brush type ionizer. Silver nanoparticles were produced by a spark discharge generation system with ion injection system and were used as antiviral agents coated onto a medium grade air filter. The pressure drop, filtration efficiency, and antiviral ability of the filter against aerosolized MS2 virus particles as a surrogate of SARS-CoV-2 virus were tested with dust contamination. Dust contamination caused the increase of the filtration efficiency and pressure drop, while the antiviral agents (in this study, silver nanoparticles) coating did not have any significant effect on the filtration efficiency and pressure drop. Using these properties, we suggested a novel method to maximize the antiviral performance of the antiviral air filter that was contaminated by dust particles. Moreover theoretical analysis of antiviral ability with dust contamination and re-coated antiviral agents was carried out using a mathematical model to calculate the time-dependent antiviral effect of the filter under actual conditions of subway station. Our model can be used to apply on antiviral air filtration system of subway station for prevention of pandemic diffusion, and predict the life cycle of an antiviral filter.

골수내 정상적인 혈구형성은 줄기세포와 주위의 미세환경 사이에 일어나는 상호작용에 의해서 좌우된다고 알려져 있다. 이때 미세환경은 성장요소, 기질세포 및 기질세포가 분비한 세포외기질의 복잡한 망상구조로 이루어져 있다. 골수의 세포외기질은 거대분자로 구성되어 있으며 이중 구성요소의 일부인 당단백이 혈구형성의 조절에 주요한 요소가 된다고 많은 학자들이 주장해 왔다. 골수의 기질을 이루고 있는 망상세포, 지방세포, 섬유모세포, 혈관내피세포 및 혈관주위세포 등이 분비하는 세포외기질에 여러종류의 laminin 동형체가 함유되어 있으며 여러 종류의 혈구형성에 주요한 역할을 한다는 연구보고가 있다. 저자는 골수내 종양을 치료하기 위해 빈번히 사용되는 cyclophosphamide가 골수에 미치는 영향을 규명하고자 실험동물의 혈구형성에 영향을 미치는 laminin-1의 발현의 변화를 골수의 기질세포에서 추적하고자 하였다. 건강한 SD계 흰쥐를 실험동물로 사용하여 cyclophosphamide를 체중 kg당 75 mg을 복강내로 1회 투여하고 3일, 1주, 3주 및 5주 후 희생하여 골수조직을 채취하여 면역조직염색법으로 염색하여 laminin-1의 골수내 분포의 변화를 관찰하였고, 일부 조직은 전자현미경표본을 제작하여 1차 항체(rabbit anti-laminin)로 반응시킨 후 직경 12 nm의 금과립이 섞인 제2차 항체(biotinylated goat anti-rabbit IgG)로 다시 반응시키고 uranyl acetate로 단일염색 후 전자현미경으로 관찰하여 다음과 같은 결과를 얻었다. 1. Cyclophosphamide 투여 후 3일 경과군의 흰쥐 골수조직은 정맥동이 확장 되었고, 일부 조직이 괴사되었으며, 혈구형성세포가 감소되었다. 망상조직과 지방세포사이의 조직에서 laminin-1의 면역반응이 강하게 나타났다. 2. Cyclophosphamide 투여 후 1주, 2주 및 5주 투여군의 골수에서 laminin-1의 약한 면역반응이 기질조직에 계속되었고 혈구형성세포의 수는 증가되었다. 3. Laminin-1의 면역반응을 나타내는 금과립은 cyclophosphamide 투여 3일군의 골수 기질세포에서 가장 많은 수가 관찰되었고, 투여 1주, 3주 및 5주군에서는 금과립의 수량이 감소되었다. 이상과 같은 실험결과는 cyclophosphamide가 흰쥐에 투여되었을 때 골수의 혈구형성의 미세환경을 유지하는 기질세포의 laminin-1의 발현을 증가시키는 것으로 생각되었다.

Recently, HSDI (High Speed Direct Injection) diesel engine has been spotlighted as a next generation engine because it has a good potential for high thermal efficiency and fuel economy. This study was carried out to investigate the in-cylinder flow characteristics generated in a 4-valve small diesel cylinder head with a tangential and helical intake port. The flow characteristics such as coefficient of flow rate(Cf), swirl ratio (Rs), and mass flow rate (ms) were measured in the steady flow test rig using the impulse swirl meter and the analysis of in-cylinder flow field was conducted by experiment using the PIV and calculation using the commercial CFD code. As the results from steady flow test indicate, the mass flow rate of the cylinder head with a short distance between the two intake ports is increased over 13% than that of the other head. However, the non-dimensional swirl ratio is decreased approximately 15%. From in-cylinder flow characteristics obtained by PIV and CFD calculation, we found that the swirl center was eccentric from the cylinder center and the velocity distribution became uniform near the TDC. In addition, the results of the calculation are good agreement with the experimental results.

본 연구에서는 주유소 등의 지하 유류저장탱크나 파이프의 제한된 수명으로 인해 발생할 수 있는 가솔린의 누출에 의해 MTBE로 토양이 오염되었을 경우를 가정하여, 칼럼실험을 수행하고, CXTFIT 기법을 이용하여 토양 내 MTBE의 이동특성을 살펴 보았다. 칼럼실험에서는 토성, 수분함량, 유기물함량, 주입유속을 달리하여, 주입액과 유출액의 MTBE의 농도 측정값을 비교하고, CXTFIT기법을 이용하여 two-site 비평형 흡착모델에 사용된 매개변수(D, R, $\beta$, $\omega$)를 구하였다. 이들 매개변수와 파과곡선을 이용하여 MTBE의 토양 내 이동특성을 살펴보았다. 토양 내 미세입자와 유기물함량이 많을수록 이류에 의한 영향이 감소하는 것으로 나타났으며, 수분함량과 유속의 증가는 이류에 의한 MTBE의 이동을 더욱 가속시키는 것으로 나타났다.

그라우팅 공법은 보통 포틀랜드 시멘트로 대표되는 경화재를 사용하여 지반 또는 구조물에 주입하여 보강 및 차수 등에 이용하는 공법이다. 분말 상태의 시멘트에 물을 혼합하여 교반 시키면 입자들이 응집하게 된다. 시멘트 입자들이 응집하게 되면 입자의 크기가 커져 미세한 균열에서 주입성이 낮아진다. 본 연구에서는 이러한 시멘트 입자의 응집성을 저감시키기 위해 그라우트 믹서 내부에 거름망을 설치하고 진동 발생시켜 통과하는 시멘트 입자가 분리되도록 하였다. 설치된 진동필터의 효과를 확인하기 위하여 보통 포틀랜드 시멘트, 슬래그 시멘트, 마이크로 시멘트를 각각 사용하여 비교시험을 수행하였다. 점도, 블리딩, 입도분석, 압축강도 시험을 통해 진동망을 통과하는 경우 그 특성이 현저하게 변화하는 것을 확인할 수 있었다. 그라우트 믹서 내부에 진동필터를 설치하면 물과 교반 시 발생되는 응집현상을 감소시켜 줄 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

This study investigated the effects of annealing environment for the densification and purification properties of pure titanium coating layer manufactured by cold spraying. The annealing was conducted at $600^{\circ}C$/1 h and three kinds of environments of vacuum, Ar gas, and $5%H_2+Ar$ mixture gas were controlled. Cold sprayed Ti coating layer (as sprayed) represented 6.7% of porosity and 228 HV of hardness, showing elongated particle shapes (severe plastic deformation) perpendicular to injection direction. Regardless of gas environments, all thermally heat treated coating layers consisted of pure ${\alpha}$-Ti and minimal oxide. Vacuum environment during heat treatment represented superior densification properties (3.8% porosity, 156.7 HV) to those of Ar gas (5.3%, 144.5 HV) and $5%H_2+Ar$ mixture gas (5.5%, 153.1 HV). From the results of phase analysis (XRD, EPMA, SEM, EDS), it was found that the vacuum environment during heat treatment could be effective for reducing oxide contents (purification) in the Ti coating layer. The characteristic of microstructural evolution with heat treatment was found to be different at three different gas environments. The controlling method for improving densification and purification in the cold sprayed Ti coating material was also discussed.

There is growing interest in power inductors in which metal soft magnetic powder and epoxy resin are combined. In this field, the process technology for increasing the packing density of magnetic particles in an injection molding process is very important. However, little research has been reported in this regard. In order to improve the packing density, we investigated and compared the sedimentation heights of pastes for three types of soft magnetic alloy powders as a function of the mixing ratios and the type of resin used. Experimental results showed that the packing density was the highest (71.74%) when the mixing ratio was 80 : 16 : 4 (Sendust : Fe-S : CIP) according to the particle size using an SE-4125 resin. In addition, the packing density was found to be inversely related to the layer separation distance. As a result, it was confirmed that the dispersion of solid particles in the paste was important for curing; however, the duration of the curing process can greatly affect the packing density of the final composite.

As the combustion process of CWM consists of the water evaporation, the release and combustion of volatile matter, and the combustion of char for every particle, it is more complex than that of existent liquid fuel. Though the many studies on CWM combustion have been carried out by the single droplet using hanging methods or the multiple droplet using atomization methods, any report don't presents definite solution about the effects by the initial water evaporation and combustion of volatile. When CWM is suddenly exposed in the high temperature surroundings, the internal water evaporates and then each droplet builds up pores. Besides, porosity rate changes along the temperature of surroundings, the composition ratio of CWM, and the initial diameter of droplet. In result, because it affects the whole combustion rate, the combustion of CWM has complex mechanism as compared with the combustion of liquid or gas fuel. Therefore, concentrating on porous structure of CWM, this study has proceeded to acquire the basic data on the CWM injection combustion and closely examines the effects of the first stage combustion on the whole combustion by measuring the diameter variations, pore rate, mass fraction burned, and the internal temperature changes of CWM droplet. The results demonstrate that $60{\sim}70%$ of initial mass is reduced during water evaporation and volatile combustion period, and swelling rate, mass faction burned, and density variation are greatly concerned with atomization of CWM etc.

The high purity manganese oxides were made from the dust, generated in AOD process that produces a medium-low carbon ferromanganese and collected in the bag filter. Manganese oxide content in the dust was about 90%, and its phase was confirmed as Mn₃O₄. In the extraction of manganese, because of remaining amorphous MnO₂, the dust was reduced to MnO by roasting with charcoal. The pulp density of the reduced dust can control pH of the solution more than 4 and then Fe ion is precipitated to a ferric hydroxide. Because a ferric hydroxide co precipitates with Si ion etc, Fe, Si ion was removed f개m the solution. Heating made water to be volatized and nitrates was left in reactor Then nitrates were a liquid state and stirring was possible. Among the nitrates in reactor, only the manganese nitrate which have the lowest pyrolysis temperature pyrolyzed into β-MnO₂powder and NO₂(g) at the temperature less than 200℃. When the pyrolysis of manganese nitrate has been completed about 90%, injection of water stopped the pyrolysis. Nitrates of impurity dissolved and the spherical high purity β-MnO₂powders were obtained by filtering and washing. Mn₂O₃or Mn₃O₄ powder could be manufactured from β-MnO₂powder by controlling the heating temperature. Lastly, a manufactured manganese oxide particle has 99.97% purity.

High-tech microelectronics industry is known as one of the most chemical-intensive industries. In Korea, Microelectronics industry occupied 38% of export and 16% of working employees work in microelectronics industry. But, chemical information and health hazards of high-tech microelectronics manufacturing are poorly understood because of rapid development and its penchant for secrecy. We need to investigate on chemical use and exposure control. We Site-visits to 6 high-tech microelectronics manufacturing company which have cleanroom work using over 1,000kg organic solvents (5 semi-conductor chips and its related parts company, 1 liquid crystal display (LCD)). We reviewed their data on chemical use and ventilation system, and measured TVOCs (Total Volatile Organic Compounds) and carbon dioxide concentration. All cleanroom air passed through hepa filters to acheive low particle levels and only 1 cleanroom uses carbon filters to minimize the organic solvents exposures In TVOC screening test, Cleanroom for semi-conductor chips and its related parts company with laminar down flow system (e.g. class 1~100) showed nondetectable level of TVOCs concentration, but Cleanroom for liquid crystal display (LCD) with conventional flow system (e.g. class 1,000~10,000) showed 327 ppm as TVOCs. Acetone concentration in cleanroom for Jig cleaning, LC Injection, Sealing processes were 18.488ppm (n=14), 49.762 ppm (n=15), 8.656 ppm (n=14) as arithmetric mean. Acetone concentration in cleanroom for LCD inspection process was 40ppm (n=55) as geometric mean, where the range was 7.8~128.7ppm and weakly correlated with ventilation rate efficiency(r=0.44, p<0.05). To control organic solvents in cleanrooms, chemical and carbon filters should be installed with hepa filters. Even though their volatile organic compounds concentration was not exceed to occupational exposure limits, considering of entrance limited cleanroom environment, long-term period exposure effects and adverse health effects of cleanroom worker need further reseach.
