Activated carbons are the microporous carbonaceous adsorbents which are prepared from carbon-containing source materials such as wood, coal, lignite, peteroleum and sometimes synthetic high polymers. [1-2] Activated carbons shows an ability to adsorbe hydrocarbons of the gas phase. Activated carbons are used in the purification of many kinds of gas phases like hexane, benzene, toluene, gasoline, phenol etc.[3] In this study, cokes from bitminous coal were activated for the purpose of preparing the activated carbons by steam activation. The effect of the activation temperature, time, steam concentration and flow rate on the n-butane adsorption, burn off, surface area and average pore size of the activated carbons, were investigated. The adsorption characteristics of the activated carbons for gasoline are indirectly estimated by n-butane adsorption.

The rugate porous silicons containing multiple photonic band gaps have been generated by applying a composite waveform summed three computer-generated pseudo-sinusoidal current waveforms and exhibit three sharp photonic band gaps in the optical reflectivity spectrum. Generated multiple rugate porous silicons display three rugate peaks corresponding to the each of the sine components varied from 0.42, 0.36, and 0.30 Hz, with a spacing of 0.06 Hz between each sine component. The resulting rugate PSi films have been removed from the silicon substrate by applying an lift-off current and are then made into particles by ultrasono-method in a organic solution. The sensing experiments using these particles for organic solvents such as toluene, hexane, acetone, and methanol have been achieved. Condensing of organic vapors in the pores increases the refractive indices of entire particle which results a red shift in the photonic peaks.

A multifunctional antagonistic bacterium, producing both antifungal antibiotic and chitinase that could be used as biocontrol agents against fungal plant pathogens was isolated from the plant-disease suppressive soil. The isolate was identified as Promicromonospora sp. KH-28 from various morphological, biochemical and physiological tests. The antifungal antibiotic produced by Promicromonospora sp. KH-28 was soluble in n-butanol, methanol, toluene, n-hexane, ethanol but insoluble in H2O, acetone, chloroform, ethylacetate and ethylether. It inhibited the growth of fungal plant pathogens of Fusarium solani, F. oxysporum, Alternaria mali and Phytophthora capsici. The antagonistic Promicromonospora sp. KH-28 produced optimally the antifungal antibiotic when it was cultivated at pH 7, 3$0^{\circ}C$ for 5 days.

It is well known that the membrane permeation in pervaporation is governed by both the chemical nature of the membrane material and the physical structure of the membrane and also the separation can be achieved by differences in either solubility, size or shape. The solubility of the penerrant in the polymeric membrane can be described qualitively by applying the Hildebrand relation [1] which relates the energy of mixing of the penerrant and the polymer material. Froehling et al. have tried to predict the swelling behavior of polymers for the systems of polyvinylchloride(PVC)-toluene-methanol, PVC-trichloroethylene-nitromethane and PVC-n-butylacetate-nitromethane[2]. The former two systems which do not show the donor/acceptor interactions upon mixing showed the successful results[2]. In addition to this technique, there are several other possible approaches to predict the swelling behaviors of polymers, such as the surface thermodynamic approach[3, 4], the comparison of the membrane polarity with the solvent polarity in terms of Dimroth's solvent polarity value[5].

This thesis researched for the conservation of a suit of armor, one glove, one belt, and on knife case that General Jung, Gong-chung had been worn in the early 17 th centuries. The armor was Doojung-kab for the battle. It was made of two kinds of fabrics, one of them was silk satin's outer fabrics, the other was quilt4d cotton's lining. as the armor was made of silk and cotton, it was treated by dry solvents and dry soap. In the dry cleaning method, used solvents were n-hexane, cyclohexane, benzene, and n-decane. the volume ratio of dry soap was 120: 1. The reaction temperature was 30℃, and reaction time was 10 to 30 minutes per one turn. The glove, belt and knife case were made with leather. They were dipped on the polyethyleneglycol 150 saturated solution during 24hours at 50℃ and then dried naturally. They were washed by toluene to remove the untreated pp.E.G. on the surfaces. It was sterilized by two gases of methylenebromide and ethyleneoxied. For the conservation, it was packed thoroughly by ？ polyethylene film sheet without air.

O/W/O(oil in water in oil)형 유화액막에 의한 2성분 탄화수소 혼합물인 toluene-cyclo hexane의 분리에 있어서 투과율, 막의 안정성과 분리계수에 미치는 영향을 계면활성제 농도, emulsion과 용매와의 교반속도 등을 변수로 하여 실험하였다. 계면활성제의 농도가 증가함에 따라 투과율은 증가하는데 0.5wt% 이상에서는 증가율이 둔화 되었다. 막 파괴율은 0.1wt%에서 가장 낮게 나타났으며, 그 이상에서는 농도가 증가하면서 파괴율도 증가하였다. 또한 분리계수는 계면활성제의 농도가 0.5wt%에서 가장 높게 나타났다. 에멀젼 제조 시 교반속도 변화에서는 투과율이나 막 파괴율에 큰 영향을 미치지 않는 것으로 나타났다. 막 강화제의 농도가 증가함에 따라 투과율은 감소하였고, 에멀젼과 용매의 접촉 시 교반속도가 증가 할수록 막 파괴율도 증가하였다.

In order to compare analytical conditions for measuring PAHs(polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons) in ambient air, a series of experiment were conducted using three different types of extraction methods that include:(1) accelerated solvent extraction (ASE), (2) soxhlet, and (3) sonification methods. Efficiency and relevant analytixal parameters for each of these methods were examined on five different types of solvents that include:(1) 10% diethyl ether in n-hexane(v/v), (2) dichloromethane, (3)cyclohexane.(4) toluene, and (5) Benzene: ethanol (4:1). Comparison of extraction efficiency for various combinations between methods and solvents was made through an application of both internal and external standard calibration techniques. The extraction efficiency tests, when checked using both internal and external standards, allowed us to derive meaningful comparison among different techniques and among solvents.

In this study, static and dynamic solvent extractions are compared for more efficient extraction of polychlorinated dibenzofurans (PCDFs) from fly ash. Static solvent extraction rather than dynamic extraction showed a higher recovery of PCDFs, which was adsorbed strongly with fly ash. The effects of parameters, such as temperature, toluene-isopropyl alcohol mixture, static and dynamic time flow rate, and solvent volume on the extraction were investigated and the variations in average recoveries of PCDFs were explained. In both extractions, temperature was an effective parameter because the higher temperature gave the higher recoveries. In dynamic solvent extraction, dynamic time was more effective than flow rate and solvent volume for the extraction of PCDFs from fly ash. Multi-layer column chromatography on neutral and acidic silica gel with n-hexane was used for cleaning up the extracts. The quantification of the PCDFs extracted was performed using HPLC-UV.

The partitioning behavior of five printing ink solvents was studied in various cookie ingredients before and after baking which had different water content and different structure. Solvents were ethyl acetate, hexane, isopropanol, methyl ethyl ketone, and toluene which represent different characteristic functional groups. Gas chromatography (G.C.) was used to measure partitioning values at $25^{\circ}C$ on each raw and baked cookie ingredients. Baking condition of cookie ingredients was $260^{\circ}C$ for 10 min. In cookie ingredients, decreases in water content generally affected Kp of polar solvents, but did not affect that of the non-polar solvents. However, as water content decreased in the cookie ingredient, the Kp of the non-polar and polar solvents showed mixed results.

The high-purity purification of 2,6-dimethylnaphthalene (2,6-DMN, 10.43 wt%) from the concentrate of DMN isomers recovered from light cycle oil (LCO) through distillation-extraction combination was examined by a crystallization operation. To select the most suitable crystallization solvent for purification of 2,6-DMN, several conventional solvents, which have been employed commercially as crystallization solvents for high-purity performance, were tested, through measurement of purity and yield of 2,6-DMN. The solvents used were acetone, cyclohexanone, ethanol, ethyl ether, ethyl acetate, isopropyl ether, methanol, n-hexane, n-heptane, pyridine, THF, toluene, and a mixture of methanol and acetone. The mixture of 60 vol% methanol and 40 vol% acetone (M/A = 1.5) was found to be suitable for purification of 2,6-DMN in the concentrate of DMN isomers based on purity and yield. Increasing the operation temperature and the volume ratio of solvent (M/A = 1.5) to feed (concentrate of DMN) resulted in improving the purity of 2,6-DMN, whereas the yield decreased. The crystal recovered by crystallization run using the concentrate of DMN isomers contained about 76 wt% 2,6-DMN. Furthermore, for recovery of high-purity 2,6-DMN, crystal containing 76 wt% 2,6-DMN was crystallized. As a result, crystal with 99.7 wt% 2,6-DMN was recovered with 40% yield.
