In this study, we investigated the pure geometrical effect of porous materials in gas adsorption using the grand canonical Monte Carlo simulations of primitive gas-pore models with various pore geometries such as planar, cylindrical, and random pore geometries. Although the model does not possess atomistic level details of porous materials, our simulation results provided many insightful information in the effect of pore geometry on the adsorption behavior of gas molecules. First, the surface curvature of porous materials plays a significant role in the amount of adsorbed gas molecules: the concave surface such as in cylindrical pores induces more attraction between gas molecules and pore, which results in the enhanced gas adsorption. On the contrary, the convex surface of random pores gives the opposite effect. Second, this geometrical effect shows a nonmonotonic dependence on the gas-pore interaction strength and length. Third, as the external gas pressure is increased, the change in the gas adsorption due to pore geometry is reduced. Finally, the pore geometry also affects the collision dynamics of gas molecules. Since our model is based on primitive description of fluid molecules, our conclusion can be applied to any fluidic systems including reactant-electrode systems.

Coastal and offshore structures such as ports and offshore wind farms will often need to be built on fine-grained sediments. Geotechnical properties associated with sediment compressibility are key parameters for marine construction designs especially on soft grounds, which involve clay-mineral dominated fines that can consolidate and settle significantly in response to engineered and environmental loads. We conduct liquid limit tests and 1D consolidation tests with fine-grained soils (silica silt, mica, kaolin and bentonite) and biogenic soils (diatom). The pore fluids for the liquid limit tests include deionized water and a series of brines with NaCl salt concentrations of 0.001 m, 0.01 m, 0.1 m, 0.6 m and 2.0 m, and the pore fluids for the consolidation tests deionized water, 0.01 m, 0.6 m, 2 m. The salt concentrations help the liquid limits of kaolin and bentonite decrease, but those of diatom slightly increase. The silica silt and mica show minimal changes in liquid limit due to salt concentrations. Accordingly, compression indices of soils follow the trend of the liquid limit as the liquid limit determined the initial void ratio of the consolidation test. Diatoms are more likely to be broken than clastic sediments during to loading, and diatom-rich sediment is therefore generally more compressible than clastic-rich sediment.

다공성 소재는 바이오 및 전기전자소재 등 다양한 분야에 폭넓게 응용될 수 있다. 이러한 가공소재의 제조 및 공정은 주로 유기용매의 사용에 의해 이루어지고 있으나 유기용매는 대기 방출과 같은 많은 환경성 문제를 야기시키고 있다. 이에 반하여 초임계 유체는 기능성 기공 소재의 제조를 위한 대안 용매로서 수많은 물리적, 화학적 그리고 유독성 측면에서 유용한 장점을 보여주고 있다. 본 총설에서는 초임계 유체를 이용하여 나노/마크로 크기의 미세 기공구조 설계 및 형상 제어를 위한 공정 기술과 초임계 유체 내에서의 화학적 합성 반응을 통한 다공성 소재의 제조 기술을 소개하고자 한다.

Very fine cobalt oxide xerogel and ambigel powder were prepared using a unique solution chemistry associated with the sol-gel process. The mesoporous structure of the initial gel is maintained by removing fluid under conditions where the capillary forces that result extraction are either low or no existent, are either low or nonexistent. Controlling both the pore and solid architecture on the nanoscale offers a strategy for the design of supercapacitor. The results materials determine by using electrode that mixed ketjen black and PVdF. But CoO$\_$x/ have the low voltage, so we experimente to change electrolyte and various concentration.

Activated carbon was prepared from coffee wastes by chemical activation with $ZnCl_{2}$, NaOH and KOH. The coffee wastes was used as raw material. Preparation process involves the roasting of raw material and carbonization of roasted material followed by chemical activation. N2-BET surface areas of activated coffee char prepared by chemical activation was measured as $1,110{\sim}2,442m^{2}/g$. Removal of copper and chromium in solution by activated carbon was carried out and structural change of pore surface was observed by SEM.

Membrane process has been applied widely to petroleum chemistry, fine chemistry, polymer, electronics, food, bioprocessing, and wastewater treatment process. Membrane process has advantage that there's no phase change through separation, energy consumption is smaller than other separation processes. And equipment investment and operation cost are inxpensive too. We prepared the silicone rubber membrane and then separated the heavy metal ion from wastewater. Silicone rubber membrane was prepared using a superitical fluid process and heavy metal ions were separated from the chromium nitrate, ferric sulfate, cupric sulfate, nickel sulfate aqueous solution. The pressure difference between top and bottom of separation apparatus was preserved by vacuum pump, and the removal amount of heavy metal at each separation step were analyzed by instrumental analysis, AAS. The surface and pore of silicone rubber membrane was investigated using SEM, and the capability of wastewater treatment using a silicone rubber membrane was proposed as calculated removal rate of heavy metal after comparing removal amount of heavy metal to amount of heavy metal in mother solution by AAS analysis.

초임계 $CO_2$중에 미량 희석된 아세톤의 실리카겔(SG800, 세공경 80nm, 입자경 $10{\mu}m$)표면에서의 물리적인 흡착현상을 FTIR 측정기법에 의해 측정하여, 그 결과를 크로마토그래피 측정기법을 이용해 얻어진 흡착현상과 비교하였다. 크로마토 측정기법에 의해 얻어진 흡착등온선(온도 313K, 압력 1MPa~15MPa)은 $CO_2$의 임계압력(7.28MPa) 보다 낮은 압력에서 최대값을 가지며, 압력이 증가함에 따라 감소하는 경향을 보여준다. 이 결과는 아세톤과의 수소결합 형성에 의해 적색변위(red-shift, 흡착피크가 낮은 파수 영역으로 이동하는 현상)한 실리카겔 표면 OH기의 IA(Integral Absorbance, 적분강도)의 압력의존성과 정성적으로 일치한다. 그러나 초임계유체 영역에서의 크로마토 측정기법에 의한 흡착등온선의 압력증가에 따른 감소비가 FTIR 측정기법에 의한 IA 곡선의 압력증가에 따른 감소비에 비해 조금 크게 감소하는 경향을 보여준다. 이 결과는 비교적 약한 상호작용을 가지는 van der Waals 결합력과 상대적으로 강한 흡착력을 가지는 수소결합력이 실리카겔 표면에서의 아세톤의 흡착에 동시에 영향을 미치고 있다는 것을 나타낸다. 초임계 $CO_2$와 $N_2$가스중에 미량 희석된 트리에틸아민의 FTIR 실험결과로부터 실리카겔 표면에 흡착된 아민류 유기용매의 독특한 분광학적 흡착특성, 흡착띠(band)가 $1300cm^{-1}$ 부근까지 적색변위하는 특성을 발견할 수 있었다.
