Abstract: Disclosed is a method for detoxifying a lignocellulosic biomass hydrolysate, including: preparing a hydrolysate by pretreating a lignocellulosic biomass by hydrolysis; and decreasing or removing toxicity by adding a surfactant to the hydrolysate. The detoxifying method according to the present disclosure may effectively remove toxicity of compounds derived from lignin that inhibit the growth of and fermentation by microorganisms during the pretreatment of lignocellulosic biomass. Further, production efficiency can be improved since loss of sugar can be avoided during the detoxification and additional cost can be minimized.

Abstract: There are provided a wireless power transmission device using a frequency multiplier and a method thereof. The wireless power transmission device using the frequency multiplier includes a signal input unit configured to receive a first alternating current (AC) signal, a frequency multiplier configured to output a second AC signal having a higher frequency than the first AC signal using harmonic components of the first AC signal, and a power transmission unit configured to transmit power by receiving the second AC signal. Accordingly, a complex structure in which an AC signal is converted into a DC signal and the DC signal is converted into the AC signal again in order to generate the AC signal for the wireless power transmission can be simplified by the frequency multiplier. Moreover, it is possible to efficiently and wirelessly transmit low power required for ambient scattered sensor nodes.

Abstract: A compact, lightweight manipulation system that excels in operability and has a force feedback capability is provided. When automatic operation of a slave manipulator 105 that follows manual operation of a master manipulator 101 is bilaterally controlled by means of communication, the force acting on the slave manipulator is fed back to the master manipulator by operating the master manipulator primarily under electrically-driven speed control and the slave manipulator primarily under pneumatically-driven force control. Therefore, in the master manipulator, it is not necessary to compensate for the dynamics and the self-weight of the master manipulator in the motion range of a user, allowing highly accurate, broadband positional control, which is specific to an electrically-driven system, and in the slave manipulator, nonlinearity characteristics specific to a pneumatically-driven system presents passive softness, provides a high mass-to-output ratio, and produces a large force.
