Palm oil mill effluent (POME) is the largest pollutant discharged into the rivers of Malaysia. Thus UF membrane study was conducted to investigate the effect of pressure and stirring speed on performance of POME treatment and fouling of membrane. Two types of membrane polyethersulfone (PES) and regenerated cellulose (RC) with molecular weight cut-off (MWCO) 5 and 10 kDa were used in this study. Results showed that, as pressure increased, fouling increased however permeate quality improved, the best pressure was 1.0 bar, where the fouling was not too high and produce good permeate quality. As stirring speed increased, fouling reduced and permeate quality improved, however, when stirring speed increased from 600 rpm to 800 rpm, there was no significant improvement on the permeate quality. Therefore, the best condition was at 1.0 bar and 600 rpm. PES membrane with MWCO 5 kDa showed the best permeate quality, even fouling slightly higher than RC membrane. The permeate quality obtained were analyzed in term of dissolved solid, turbidity, suspended solid, biological oxygen demand ($BOD_5$) and chemical oxygen demand (COD) were 538 mg/L, 1.02 NTU, < 25 mg/L, 27.7 mg/L and 62.8 mg/L, respectively with dominant type of fouling is cake resistance. Thus, it can be concluded water reuse standard was successfully achieved in terms of $BOD_5$ and suspended solid.

In this study a newly designed electro-osmotic micro-mixer is proposed. This study is composed of a channel and metal electrodes attached locally on the side wall surface ultimately to control the mixing effect. To obtain the flow patterns, numerical computation was performed by using a commercial code, CFD-ACE. The fluid-flow solutions are the cast into studying the characteristics of stirring in terms of the mixing index. It was shown that the local control of the electric potential can indeed contribute to the enhancement of mixing effect.

Background: The inhibitory effect of Rodgersia podophylla root extract on melanin production has been reported, however, the study on the optimal extraction conditions that increase melanin inhibitory activity has not yet been performed. Methods and Results: In this study, we compared the melanin inhibitory activity of R. podophylla root extract obtained through different preprocessing and extraction methods. The melanin inhibitory activity was examined using Melan-A melanocytes. The results indicated that the inhibitory activity of R. podophylla roots collected in August was higher than that of the roots collected in May and November. Additionally, non-dried R. podophylla roots exhibited higher activity than dried roots, and the stirring extract was more active than the ultrasonic extract. Conclusions: Collection of R. podophylla root when the temperature is high, without drying, and stirring extraction are considered to be the optimal extraction conditions for increased melanin inhibitory effect.

수용성 단량체인 메타크릴산 (MAA)을 단량체로 potassium persulfate (KPS)를 개시제로 이용하여 $70^{\circ}C$에서 $90^{\circ}C$ 사이의 선택된 온도에서 용액중합을 진행하였다. 물에 대한 메타크릴산의 농도가 감소하거나 개시제의 농도가 증가하면 분자량은 감소하였다. 중합반응온도는 폴리메타크릴산 (PMAA)의 분자량에 크게 영향을 미치지 않았다. Weissenberg 효과는 대부분의 반응온도에서 나타났으며, $90^{\circ}C$에서는 약하게 관찰되었다. 대부분의 중합반응에서 분산성지수는 1.5 이하로 관찰되었다. 교반속도가 증가하면서 분자량은 점진적으로 증가하다, 교반속도가 800 rpm에 이르면서 수평균 및 중량평균분자량이 동일하게 791,000 g/mol의 분자량을 갖는 단분산성의 PMAA가 구하여졌다. 유리전이온도는 $162^{\circ}C$로 측정되었다.

Rheo-diecasting with stirring has been used in many material industries. As the 4th Industrial Revolution approaches the world, eco-friendly high-strength and light-weight materials become more important. Casting methods have been studied and used for aluminum-alloy automobile parts. This study carried out the effect analysis of the micro-structure and mechanical properties, such as yield/ultimate tensile strength, elongation, and hardness, of A356 using the 6-pole EMS (electro-magnetic stirring) casting process with a high electromagnetic force. As a result, the hardness and elongation of the A356 after T6 heat-treatment show a significant improvement, respectively, by 20% and 50%.

The effect of various thermomechanical treatments on the structure and rheological behaviour of Al-6.2wt%Si alloy in its solidification range were investigated using a Searle type high temperature viscometer. During continuous cooling, the viscosity increases gradually with increasing fraction of solidified alloy, until a critical fraction of solidified alloy is reached above which the viscosity sharply increases. The viscosity of the slurry, at a given volume fraction wolid, decreased with increasing shear rate. The size and morphology of primary solid particles during stirring is influenced strongly by shear rates, cooling rates, volume fraction and stirring time of solid. Morphological changes during stirring as a function of solid volume fractions, shear rate and processing time were also reported. In this study, the size of primary solid particles in these alloys consistently increases and the it`s aspect ratio decrease with the increase in fraction solid and decrease in shear rate. Crystal morphology changes from rosette type to spheroid type with the increase in shear rate and solid fraction.

Effect of ultrasonic agitation on the contact properties was studied in Ni electroless plating and Pd activation. P-type Si bare wafers were used as substrate and DMAB was used as reducing agent due to its good electrical properties, solderability and compatibility to substrate. In activation, high density Pd nuclei of small size were formed during ultra-sonic agitation compared to that of no stirring. In electroless plating, the plating rate was enhanced by 30∼90% by using ultrasonic agitation. In elecrtoless plating, inhibitor is the most effective additives in ultrasonic agitation. In this experi-ment, thiourea was used as inhibitor. The less the amount of the inhibitor, the more ultrasonic agitation efficiency. It is confirmed by SEM that Ni-B films formed by ultrasonic were coarser, less porous, and denser than those of no stirring. In ultrasonic agitation, boron content of the films was more than those of no stirring. In this case, the more DMAB concentration, the higher the temperature, the less pH, the more boron content. Resistivity of the films formed by ultrasonic agitation was higher than that of no strirring. As the content of boron was increased, the resistivity of the films was increased exponentially.

빠른 교반 조건에서 구조주형화합물인 TEAOH(Tetraethyl ammonium hydroxide)를 이용하여 제올라이트 SUZ-4를 성공적으로 합성하였다. 교반속도 250 rpm 이상에서 결정성의 제올라이트 SUZ-4를 얻을 수 있었다. 이것은 교반이 재현성있는 합성에 결정적인 역할을 한다는 것을 의미한다. 사용한 물의 양$(H_2O/Al_2O_3)$의 차이에 의하여 SUZ-4 결정형태 조절이 가능하였다. XRD, BET 및 암모니아 TPD에 의해 SUZ-4의 물리화학적 성질 및 증기처리에 의한 열적 안정성이 조사되었다.

The rheocasting characteristics are strongly influenced by the microstructural morphology such as particle size, form factor and contiguity. In this study, the effect of structural morphology on fluid flow characteristics of A356 semi-solid alloy was investigated with a vacuum suction fluidity test. Semi-solid metal slurry was made by the mechanical stirring, the liquidus casting, and H-NCM to be analysed. H-NCM could obtain uniform and fine globular microstructures of 0.9 form factor and 55 ${\mu}m$ particle size. Inoculation was found to be effective for reducing particle size, however, for H-NCM it should be avoided due to the cause of increasing contiguity. The fluidity test indicated that the non-stirring method had higher fluidity and smaller liquid segregation in the same solid faction of 0.4 than the stirring method, for smaller particle size and higher form factor. It was observed that liquid segregation decreased as the particle size is smaller and form factor is higher. The results of die-casting experiment were a good agreement with those of fluidity test.

한국남해 연안에 위치한 득량만에 있어서 하계의 태양복사, 바람, 조류에 의한 해양의 연적성층 및 연적혼합현상의 시간적 변동특성을 밝히기 위한 연구를 수행하였따. 이를 위하여 27개 정점에서 관측된 수온, 염분, 밀도값을 분석하였고. Simpson과 Hunter(1974)가 제안한 위치에너지 개념을 도입한 에너지 방정식을 이용하여 태양복사, 바람, 조류에너지를 각각 계산하였다. 그 결과 하계 득량만 해양의 연직 성층 및 혼합현상은 태양복사에너지가 일정하다고 할때 바람보다는 조류에 의해 크게 좌우됨을 알 수 있었고, 조류에너지에 의한 수괴의 연직합에너지이여율 $epsilon$의 값은 약 0.010 ~ 0.014사이를 나타내고 있었다.
