Pyroprocessing is a crucial method for recovering nuclear fuel materials, particularly uranium and transuranic elements (TRU), through electrochemical reactions in a LiCl or LiCl-KCl molten salt system, which is highly stable medium at elevated temperatures. In the electrochemical reduction stage, actinide metal oxides are effectively transformed into their metallic forms and retained at the cathode within a molten LiCl-Li2O environment at 650°C. Simultaneously, oxygen ions (O2-) are generated at the cathode and then transported through the molten salt to be discharged at the anode, where they combine to form oxygen gas (O2) on the anode’s surface. One notable challenge in this electrochemical process is the generation of various byproducts during the anode oxide reduction step, including oxygen, chlorine, carbon dioxide, and carbon monoxide. Consequently, significant amounts of corrosion products tend to accumulate on the upper region of the anode’s immersion area over time. This report introduces a novel solution to mitigate corrosion-related challenges within the specified temperature range. We propose a selective oxidation treatment for the NiCrAl-based 214 Haynes alloy, involving exposure to 1,100°C in a reducing atmosphere. The objective is to stimulate the growth of protective α-Al2O3 scales on the alloy’s surface. The resulting oxide scales have undergone thorough characterization using SEM, EDS, and XRD techniques. The pre-grown alumina scale has demonstrated commendable adherence and thermal stability, even when subjected to a chlorine-oxygen mixed atmosphere at the specified temperature.

지금껏 시행된 성별 다양성 정책의 목적은 주로 남성 중심으로 제도화된 차별적인 문화와 그로 인한 여성의 과소 활용을 해소하기 위함이었다. 따라서 그동안의 성별 다양성 연구는 여성을 소수집단으로 전제하고 이들을 우대하는 성별 다양성 정책을 펼친 경우에만 집중되었다. 하지만 주류집단과 소수집단의 개념은 맥락에 따라 달라질 수 있으 며, 사회에는 여성 중심적 직업군 역시 상당수 존재한다. 이에 본 연구자들은 남성이 수혜자가 되는 다양성 정책에 대하여 남성과 여성 구직자가 각각 어떠한 반응을 보이는지를 탐구하였다. 본 연구는 대학생 329명(남성 156명, 여성 173명)을 대상으로 2(성별: 남성, 여성) × 2(다양성: 유리, 불리)의 참가자 간 실험 설계로 진행되었다. 참가자들은 가상 기업의 신입사원 채용 공고에 제시된 다양성 단서를 보고, 해당 기업에 대한 조직 공정성 및 조직 매력도를 평가하였다. 그 결과, 먼저 구직자들은 채용 공고에 제시된 다양성 단서가 본인에게 유리(vs. 불리)할 경우 성별에 따라 조직의 분배공정성 및 절차공정성을 다르게 인식하였다. 구체적으로 남성 구직자보다 여성 구직자가 채용 공고 에서 본인에게 유리(vs. 불리)한 다양성 단서를 접하게 되었을 때 조직의 분배공정성 및 절차공정성을 높게 인식하였 다. 또, 다양성 단서와 조직 매력도의 관계를 조직 공정성 인식이 매개하였고, 이 매개효과가 성별에 의해 조절되었 다. 이때 여성의 경우에는 다양성 단서와 조직 매력도의 관계에서 조직의 분배공정성 및 절차공정성 인식을 통한 매개효과가 둘 다 유의하였으나, 남성의 경우에는 조직의 절차공정성 인식을 통한 매개효과만이 유의하였다. 이 결 과는 같은 내용이나 수준의 다양성 관리라 하더라도 개인의 사회적 지위나 소속집단에 따라 다르게 인식되며, 이로 인해 차별화된 태도 및 행동으로까지 이어질 수 있다는 점을 시사한다.

Background : Garlic is one of the important vegetables and a source of natural anti-oxidants. This study was carried out to investigate the antioxidant activities including 2,2-diphenyl-1-picr yl-hydrazil (DPPH), 2,2'-azino-bis-3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulphonic acid (ABTS), ferric reducing antioxidant power (FRAP), reducing power (RP) and total polyphenol content (TPC) of A. ampel oprasum L. Methods and Results : DPPH, ABTS, FRAP, TPC, and RP were analyzed the extract of aerial plant part in 22 accessions of A. ampeloprasum by spectrophotometry mathod. A. tuberosum Rottler ex Spreng. was used as a control. DPPH was ranged from 0.35 to 3.06 ㎍ ASC ㎎-1 dw. ABTS and FRAP showed wide variation from 4.37 to 29.30 ㎍ Trolox ㎎-1 dw and 3.18 to 10.8 ㎍ ASC ㎎-1 dw, respectively. RP and TPC were ranged from 3.43 to 9.51 ㎍ GAE ㎎-1 dw, and 0.8 to 18.63 ㎍ ASC ㎎-1 dw, respectively. Cluster analysis of A. ampeloprasum germplasm was divided into two major groups. Group Ⅰ (7 accessions) characterized as higher antioxidant activities than the group Ⅱ (15 accessions) and had similar antioxidant activities with A. tuberosum as a control. FRAP value showed a significant strong positive correlation with DPPH (r = 0.868*) and ABTS activity (r = 0.826*). Principal component analysis showed that the first two principal components (PC1 and PC2) cumulatively explained 85.64 % of total variation. Conclusion : From the above results, we may suggest that A. ampeloprasum aerial parts might have useful as a new material for functional food.

The aim of the present study was to update the calibration that is used for the measurement of the total nitrogen content in the rice plant samples by using the visible and near infrared spectrum. Before the equation merge, correlation coefficient of calibration equation for nitrogen content on each rice parts was 0.945 (Leaf), 0.928 (Stem), and 0.864 (Whole plant), respectively. In the calibration models created by each part in the rice plant under the various regression method, the calibration model for the leaf was recorded with relatively high accuracy. Among of those, the calibration equation developed by Partial least squares (PLS) method was more accurate than the Multiple linear regression (MLR) method. The calibration equation was sensitive based on variety and location variations. However, we have merged and enlarged various of the samples that made not only to measure the nitrogen content more accurately, but also later sampling populations became more diversified. After merging, R2 value becomes more accurate and significantly to 0.950 (L.), 0.974 (S.), 0.940 (W.). Also, after removal of outlier, R2 values increased into 0.998, 0.995, and 0.997. In view of the results so far achieved, Standard error of prediction (SEP) and SEP (C) were reduced in the stem and whole plant. Biases were reduced in the leaf, stem as well as whole plant. Slopes were high in the stem. Standard deviation reduced in the stem but R2 was high in the stem and whole plant. Result was indicated that calibration equation make update, and updating robust calibration equation from merge function and multi-variate calibration.
