The electrical connection between zinc metal and iron in contact with water prevents oxidation of iron until all zinc is dissolved, which is called a zinc sacrificial anode phenomenon. In the case of water pipes, zinc is often attached to the outside of the pipe, but examples of mounting zinc inside the pipe to prevent iron corrosion are not well known. Zinc devices sold for water pipes vary in the amount of zinc installed depending on the diameter of the pipe and the conditions of use, but the life of the product is generally expected to be 10-20 years until all zinc dissolves and disappears. Zinc ions dissolved from zinc to water in the pipe react with the calcium carbonate scale generated inside the pipe to consume zinc ions, and it was confirmed that the needle-shaped aragonite was converted into highly crystalline calcium after observing the scale crystal through an electron microscope. In addition, it is estimated that calcium ions of scale are replaced by zinc ions, gradually losing crystallinity, being deintercalated into the pipe, and oxygen in the water is consumed during the dissolution of zinc ions from zinc metals, turning red rust hematite (Fe2O3) into magnetite (Fe3O4). In addition, zinc ions were expected to move hundreds to thousands of meters depending on the diameter of the pipe in the new pipe, but it was confirmed that the travel distance was shortened in the case of pipes with many corrosion products.

코로나19는 비말을 통해 전염되는 호흡기 질환으로 건물의 실내 공간은 코로나19의 대규모 감염에 매우 취약한 곳이다. 집약된 토지 이용으로 인해 수많은 사람들이 고층의 건물에 밀집해 있는 도시 환경은 이러한 질병에 더 취약할 수 있다. 뿐만 아니라 도시의 인구 분포는 시간에 따라 역동적인 변화를 보이기 때문에 코로나19와 같은 전염병에 대한 역학 조사의 성공은 도시 인구의 시공간적 변화를 얼마나 잘 이해하는지에 달려있다. 하지만 특정 시간대에 특정 건물에 분포하고 있는 현재 인구 밀도를 파악하는 것은 무척 어려운 일이다. 따라서 본 연구는 특정 시간대의 도시 인구의 수평적, 수직적 분포를 보다 정확하게 추정하기 위한 대안을 제시하고자 한다. 보다 구체적으로 지리가중회귀(GWR) 모델에 기반한 대시메트릭 매핑 기법을 이용하여 건물 단위의 현재 인구를 추정하였다. 일반적으로 대시메트릭 매핑 기법은 보조 자료를 사용하여 기존의 공간 스케일을 넘어 보다 상세한 수준의 인구 분포를 추정할 수 있도록 해준다. 본 연구에서는 건물의 용도와 연면적을 보조 정보로 활용하였으며, GWR 모델을 이용하여 지역적으로 이질적인 인구 분포 특성을 반영하였다. 연구 결과, 서울시 전체에 걸쳐 집계구보다 상세한 건물 단위 수준의 인구 분포를 추정할 수 있었다. 건물 단위의 현재 인구 추정은 코로나19와 같은 팬데믹 전염병의 역학 조사나 효과적인 방역 대책 수립을 위한 중요한 기초 자료로 활용될 수 있을 것으로 기대한다.

한국의 전통 과자인 유과는 거의 모든 공정이 수작업으로 제조되기 때문에 공정 중 작업자 및 작업도구 등에 의한 교차오염으로 인한 안전문제가 제기되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 유과 제조 공정 중 찹쌀의 불림 단계에서 증가된 미생물을 제어하기 위하여 항균 활성이 있는 용액 9가지 용액(40% 자몽종자 추출물, 100% 계피 추출물, 70% 에탄올, 100% 식초, 0.2% 차아염소산나트륨, 40% 초산나트륨, 40% 탄산수소나트륨, 40% 사과산, 40% 구연산)을 이용하여 Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus aureus, Listeria monocytogenes, Salmonella typhimurium, Bacillus cereus에 대해 항균 효과를 비교 확인하였다. Disk diffusion법을 통해 40% 사과산과 구연산에서 높은 항균 효과를 확인할 수 있었고, 추가로 항균용액의 농도, 처리방법 및 시간을 최적화한 결과 1% 사과산-구연산을 10분 동안 처리 시 세균 5종을 모두 사멸시켜 높은 항균효과를 확인할 수 있었다. 불림단계의 찹쌀에 1% 사과산-구연산으로 정치 및 교반하면서 10분 동안 세척하였을 때 일반세균과 대장균군의 수가 각각 4.0 Log CFU/g와 5.0 Log CFU/g씩 감소하였다. 이상의 결과로 볼 때 1% 사과산-구연산으로 불린 찹쌀에 대해 침지와 교반으로 10분 동안 처리함으로써 전통 유과 제조과정 중 쌀의 불림단계에서 증가된 미생물을 효과적으로 저감화 할 수 있음을 확인하였다.

To understand the characteristics of low-level clouds (CLs), environmental variables are composited on each CL using individual surface observations and six-hourly upper-air meteorologies around the globe. Individual CLs has its own distinct environmental conditions. Over the eastern subtropical and western North Pacific Ocean in JJA, stratocumulus (CL5) has a colder sea surface temperature (SST), stronger and lower inversion, and more low-level cloud amount (LCA) than the climatology whereas cumulus (CL12) has the opposite characteristics. Over the eastern subtropical Pacific, CL5 and CL12 are influenced by cold and warm advection within the PBL, respectively but have similar cold advection over the western North Pacific. This indicates that the fundamental physical process distinguishing CL5 and CL12 is not the horizontal temperature advection but the interaction with the underlying sea surface, i.e., the deepening-decoupling of PBL and the positive feedback between shortwave radiation and SST. Over the western North Pacific during JJA, skyobscuring fog (CL11), no low-level cloud (CL0), and fair weather stratus (CL6) are associated with anomalous warm advection, surface-based inversion, mean upward flow, and moist mid-troposphere with the strongest anomalies for CL11 followed by CL0. Over the western North Pacific during DJF, bad weather stratus (CL7) occurs in the warm front of the extratropical cyclone with anomalous upward flow while cumulonimbus (CL39) occurs on the rear side of the cold front with anomalous downward flow. Over the tropical oceans, CL7 has strong positive (negative) anomalies of temperature in the upper troposphere (PBL), relative humidity, and surface wind speed in association with the mesoscale convective system while CL12 has the opposite anomalies and CL39 is in between.

In this paper, the CFRP(Carbon Fiber Reinforced Plastic) parts were printed and cut in a large-scale additive and subtractive hybrid manufacturing system. A method to increase the strength and durability of a product by identifying the interlayer adhesion during the printing process of a large-scale additive manufacturing hybrid system was investigated. According to the printing conditions(CF content, deposition temperature, compaction process), the specimen was printed and cut to determine the tensile strength in the printing direction. As a result of the experiment, the highest tensile strength was shown when ABS-CF 20wt.% Compound was printed at 230℃ extrusion temperature, and the higher the CF content of the material, the lower the tensile strength. As a result of observing the inside of the test piece through an optical microscope, a large number of voids were kept inside the test piece. To remove voids generated inside the test piece, a compaction process was applied to the additive manufacturing hybrid system to prepare a test piece. As a result, void size decreased, and the strength of the part showed a tendency to increase. It is thought that additive manufacturing with high tensile strength can be obtained through studies on the optimization of deposition conditions in additive manufacturing hybrid systems.

Complaints about foul odors are emerging as an issue, and the number of complaints is steadily increasing every year. Biofiltration is known to remove harmful or odorous substances from the atmosphere by using microorganisms, and full-scale biofilters are being installed and operated in various environmental and industrial facilities. In this study, the current status and actual odor removal efficiency of full-scale biofilters installed in publicly owned treatment facilities such as sewage, manure, and livestock manure treatment plants were investigated. In addition, the effects of design and operating factors on their efficiency were also examined. As a result, it was found that odor prevention facilities with less than 30% odor removal efficiency based on complex odors accounted for 40%-50% of the biofilters investigated. In investigating the appropriate level of operating factors on odor removal efficiency, it was found that compliance with the recommended values p lays a significant role in improving odor removal efficiency. In the canonical correlation analysis for the on-site biofilter operation and design data, residence time and humidity were found to be the most critical factors. The on-site biofilter operation and design data were analyzed through canonical correlation analysis, and the residence time and humidity maintenance were found to be the most important factors in the design and operations of the biofilter. Based on these results, it is necessary to improve the odor removal efficiency of on-site biofilters by reviewing the effectiveness of the operation factors, improving devices, and adjusting operating methods.

Consumer demand for imported and craft beer is increasing. Almost all the malt used by craft beer companies is imported. This study sought to develop a malting technology to expand the use of domestic barley, the main raw material for beer, and to examine its influence on the quality of domestic malt. The Hopum cultivar of beer barley was purchased and used at the Jeollanam-do Seed Management Center. A pilot-scale malting facility built by the National Institute of Crop Science was used. One sack (40 kg) of barley was sieved through screening sieves, and the barley was classified according to size (3.1, 2.8, 2.5, 2.2, and 2.2 mm), with the size-related composition being 18.1, 48.9, 23.3, 6.4, and 1.0%, respectively. The malt yields were 89.0, 87.6, 86.6, 82.2, and 76.1%, respectively. The coleoptiles elongation decreased as the barley size decreased. The protein content of malt tended to be high at small particle sizes of 2.2 mm. The soluble solid content of wort prepared from malt revealed good values of 17.4-17.5oBx, except for 15.3oBx for particles <2.2 mm in size. According to barley size in the malting process, these findings should be valuable quality indicators of malt.
