A dehydrating sheet comprises polymeric water absorber. which are packed in a semipermeable cellophane film bag allowing selective permeation of water. This sheet dehydration is quite different from conventional drying method such as sun drying, hot-air blast drying and cold air blast drying in a sense that samples are dried without heat treatment. As a part of the studies to develope a new processing method for effective utilization of dark muscle fishes, the preparation of a good quality salted and semi-dried mackerel by the dehydrating sheet was attempted. The dehydration time for preparation of a salted and semi-dried mackerels containing approximately equal moisture content were revealed $180{\sim}510min$ in conventional drying method and $90{\sim}160min$ in this sheet dehydration, respectively. The moisture and histamine contents of those salted and semi-dried mackerels were $59.4{\sim}62.4%$ and $2.5{\sim}3.6 mg/100g$, respectively. The changes in peroxide value, fatty acid composition, brown pigment formation, myofibrillar protein solubility and Ca-ATPase activity during processing of the salted and semi-dried mackerel prepared by the sheet dehydration were more lower than those of products prepared by conventional drying methods. Therefore, these result showed that the quality of a salted and semi-dried mackerel prepared by the sheet dehydration was imperial to that of those products by conventional drying method.

For the treatment of reactive phenolic resin waste, a simulation model of pervaporative dehydration process has been developed through hollow fiber membrane module. Some of basic parameters were determined directly from dehydration of the waste liquid through a flat sheet membrane to get realistic values. The simulation model was verified by comparing the simulated values with experimental data obtained from hollow fiber membrane module. Hollow fiber membranes with active layer coated on inside fiber were used, and feed flew through inside hollow fiber. Feed flow rate affected membrane performances and reaction by providing a corresponding temperature distribution of feed along with fiber length. Feed temperature is also a crucial factor to determine dehydration and reaction behavior by two competing ways; increasing temperature increases permeation rate as well as water formation rate. Once the permeate pressure is well below the saturated vapor pressure of feed, permeate pressure had a slightly negative effect on permeation performance by slightly reducing driving force. As the pressure approached the vapor pressure of feed, dehydration performances declined considerably due to the activity ratio of feed and permeate.

A SWP method is a revolutionary dewatering method. The conventional dewatering method, deep-well method, had ever occurred a civil appeal caused by the well depletion in compliance with the reduction of the groundwater level over a wider area considerably by the deep-well pumping from homogeneous sand-layer ground for a dry-work, while pump groung excavation working in Sendai city, Japan 10 years ago. it'd developed with the problematic proposal to find the new method which can lower the groundwater level only within the sheet pile without any reduction of groundwater outside of the sheet pile and until currently steady improvement came. It's been confirmed with plenty of executional results that there was almost no decreasing of water-level from surroundings, over so many construction-sites including vertical shafts which completely does not enter into non-water permeable layer and pumping ground etc. The SWP method in this time has been introducing initially and carried into a the execution tentatively at a construction-site and made a various result get through the execution.

Various inorganic fillers improve the thermal conductivity and physical properties of organic products. Alumina has been used a representative filler in the heat radiation sheet for the heat radiation of electric device. The high filling rate of alumina increases the thermal conductivity and properties of products. We successfully developed the spherical alumina by flame fusion process using the oxygen burner with LPG fuel. In the high temperature flame (2500$\sim$3000$^{\circ}C$) of oxygen burner, sprayed powders were melting and then rotated by carrier gas. This surface melting and rotation process made spherical alumina. Especially effects of chemical composition and particle size of stating materials on the melting behavior of starting materials in the flame and spheroidization ratio were investigated. As a result, spheroidization ratio of boehmite and aluminum hydroxide with endothermic reaction of dehydration process was lower than that of the sintered alumina without dehydration reaction.

The main purpose of this study is to develop a commercial scale of pervaporative process equipped with hollow fiber membrane modules, being able to effectually purify organic solvent at high temperature well over its boiling point under high vapor pressure. Three constituent technologies have been developed; 1) to fabricate braid-reinforced hollow fiber membrane stable in high pressure and high temperature application, 2) to design and fabricate a commercial scale of hollow fiber membrane module, and 3) to design and fabricate a pilot scale of pervaporation equipment system. The developed hollow fiber membrane possesses a membrane performance superior to the membrane of Sulzer (Germany) which is the most-well known for pervaporation process, and the membrane module equips hollow fiber membranes of $4.6m^2$ and the pervaporation system can treat organic liquid at 200 L/h, which is based on the dehydration of 95 wt% isopropyl alcohol (IPA). Since the membrane module is designed to flow in and pass through the inside of individual hollow fiber membrane, not to involve both the formation of feed's dead volume observed in flat-sheet membrane module and the channeling of feed occurring inside hollow fiber bundle which lower membrane performance seriously, it showed excellent separation efficiency. In particular, the module is inexpensive and has less heat loss into its surrounding, in compared with flat-sheet membrane module. In addition, permeant can be removed effectively from the outer surface of hollow fiber membrane because the applied vacuum is conveyed uniformly through space between fibers into respective fiber, even into one in the middle of the hollow fiber bundle in which the space between fibers is uniform in distance. Since the hollow fiber membrane pervaporation system is the first one ever developed in the world, our own unique proprietary technology can be secured, preoccupying technical superiority in export competitive challenges.

The study was undertaken to extend the shelf life of filleted and salted fishes such as mackerel and jacopever. These filleted and salted fishes were dehydrated by dewatering sheet containing sodium polyacrylate resin at $5{\pm}1^{\circ}C$, wrapped with low density polyethylene film, and then stored at $-18{\pm}2^{\circ}C$. During the frozen storage, the change of brown pigment formation, peroxide value, carbonyl value, drip formation content in the cold-osmotic dehydrated fishes after salt dipping were much lower than those of non-dehydrated ones. Moreover, the proteins and Ca-ATPase in the cold-osmotic dehydrated fishes after salt dipping were more stable than those of non-dehydrated ones during frozen storage. It was supposed that the cold-osmotic dehydration pretreatment processing for filleted and salted fishes was useful in improvement of the frozen storage stability.

The sedimentation characteristics of ceramic fiber were analyzed when viscosity of the slurry for ceramic paper formation was varied and zeta potential change and degree of dispersion with pH were studied as well. The proper viscosity of the slurry for dispersion of fibers was between 28 and 31 cps. Zeta potential of the slurry was sensitively changed with pH adjustment and showed maximum value of -35~-36 mV at ph 7.5~9.5, which indicated better dispersion of ceramic fiber as zeta potential of the slurry was increased. The sedimentation rate of ceramic fiber in a slurry was reported minimum at the maximum zeta potential. Water content of the casted paper should be lower than 83% after vacuum dehydration for retention of binder and lower than 62% after press rolling for wet paper handling. The obtained ceramic paper had tensile strength and basis weight, $102 kgf/cm^2$ and $98 g/m^2$, respectively.
